Ce qu'on ne vous dit pas, c'est que vous aurez l'air ballonné, à tel point que j'ai l'impression d'être enceinte. L'expérience que j'ai vécue immédiatement après l'insertion du ballon a été extrêmement mauvaise. On m'a dit que c'était une procédure facile et que vous n'aviez besoin de personne pour vous accompagner. C'est faux, vous avez BESOIN de quelqu'un avec vous.

On m'a dit que c'était normal (c'est normal), mais le médecin et le traducteur m'ont donné l'impression que je réagissais de manière excessive en voulant rester à l'hôpital. Pendant mon séjour à l'hôpital, j'ai découvert que d'autres patients atteints du ballon s'étaient également enregistrés. J'aurais aimé qu'ils soient un peu plus honnêtes et qu'ils informent les patients que certaines personnes ne supportent pas bien les premiers jours et que certains restent à l'hôpital toute la nuit. Cela dit, le personnel de l'hôpital a été très gentil et attentif. Si vous avez l'intention de vous faire poser ce ballon, emmenez quelqu'un avec vous pour qu'il puisse s'occuper de vous pendant les quelques jours qui suivent l'intervention, ou préparez-vous à payer un séjour à l'hôpital.\n\nEnfin, ne réservez pas votre vol le lendemain comme ils vous l'ont conseillé.

I am still nauseous and have discomfort and I vomit regularly (a few times a week). I have however lost a lot of weight already almost 20 pounds, I would have ever lost this weight without the balloon. Things they don't tell you is that you will look bloated, to the point that it looks like I'm pregnant. My experience immediately after the insertion of the balloon were extremely bad. I was told this was an easy procedure that you don't need anyone with you. This is false you NEED someone with you. After the procedure you will feel like you are dying, you will not be able to hold anything even water down and will immediately throw it back out. I went back to the hospital and checked myself in for a day and paid to have myself hooked up with IVs. This was pricey I paid almost $800 Canadian for one night at the hospital, but it was necessary as I was extremely dehydrated. I was told that this was normal (it is normal) however the doctor and translator made me feel like I was overreacting by wanting to stay at the hospital. During my stay at the hospital I found out other patients with the balloon also checked themselves in. I wish they were a bit more honest, and advised patients that some people do not handle the first few days well and that some stay at the hospital over night. This being said the hospital staff were very kind and attentive. If you are going to get this Balloon done then either take someone with you so that they can take care of your for the few days after the procedure or prepare to pay for a hospital stay. \n\nLastly DO NOT book your flight the next day like they advised. You will not feel well enough to fly. It took me 4 days after the procedure to feel ok enough to fly.

Jusqu'au moment où j'ai réservé mon vol, la communication avec Bookimed était au point, mais juste après avoir envoyé ma confirmation de réservation, je n'ai plus rien entendu de personne. Donc, le jour du départ, je n'avais toujours pas de confirmation pour l'hôtel, le transfert, etc., et j'ai dû continuer à courir après les informations. Ce n'était évidemment pas un bon départ pour quelqu'un qui quitte son domicile pour une procédure médicale à l'étranger !\n\nQuand je suis arrivé à l'aéroport d'Istanbul vers 5 heures du matin, j'ai dû attendre un bon 40 minutes pour mon transfert, bien que j'aie envoyé toutes mes informations de vol et qu'on m'ait dit que le chauffeur serait là à m'attendre. Incorrect.\n\nLa chambre de l'hôtel était correcte - pas de savon, shampoing ou téléphone fonctionnel, (ce qui n'était pas bon du tout, car je ne pouvais pas appeler pour demander de l'aide durant tout mon séjour). On m'a initialement donné une chambre lits jumeaux bien que j'étais seul, donc j'ai dû demander à changer pour une chambre avec un lit double. Le réceptionniste était hésitant, mais a fini par le faire après que j'insiste.\n\nLe jour de la procédure - c'était vraiment chaotique ! Je suis arrivé à l'hôpital et je ne savais pas où aller, car aucune instruction ne m'avait été donnée à l'avance sur ce à quoi m'attendre, les choses à faire et à ne pas faire... absolument rien ! Puis, une fois qu'ils ont trouvé quelqu'un pour me rencontrer, tout était très précipité ! Différentes personnes sont passées, que je ne savais pas qui elles étaient car elles ne se sont pas vraiment présentées... pour me faire signer différents documents, l'un d'eux étant une divulgation pour subir une anesthésie générale, ce dont je n'avais aucune idée et qui n'avait jamais été mentionné !\n\nC'était mon premier choc car j'avais voyagé à l'étranger, sans savoir que je serais sous sédation pendant la procédure. Je ne me suis pas préparé mentalement pour cela et j'étais vraiment ennuyé de ne pas avoir été averti à l'avance, car cela comporte en soi des risques.\n\nQuoi qu'il en soit, le pire est venu ensuite, une fois la procédure terminée - je me sentais vraiment faible, avec de fortes douleurs (dans l'estomac) et extrêmement nauséeux. Encore une fois, je ne comprenais pas pourquoi j'avais autant de douleur car je n'avais pas été averti ni reçu d'informations à l'avance. Donc, tout cela était une désagréable surprise. Le personnel infirmier était gentil, mais ne parlait pas anglais.\nJe me suis senti poussé hors de ma chambre car ils ont clairement montré qu'il était temps pour moi de partir, en faisant des signes et en laissant la porte ouverte ! Mais je n'étais pas en état de partir car je n'allais pas bien !\n\nLa nutritionniste est venue très rapidement et a précipité les informations à moi. Elle est partie sans même laisser ses coordonnées au cas où j'aurais des questions ou besoin de conseils post-opératoires.\n\nPuis un autre homme est venu pour me donner les médicaments à emporter avec moi, que j'ai dû payer, encore une fois sans m'y attendre car je pensais que tout était inclus, on m'a de nouveau dit de partir.\n\nJ'ai demandé si quelqu'un venait me rencontrer pour passer en revue les dernières choses - il a dit non. Wow. Je ne pouvais pas y croire. C'était juste comme : d'accord, nous avons votre argent maintenant, vous avez votre ballon - au revoir ! Ciao !\n\nJ'étais juste consterné, bouleversé et vraiment effrayé en fait, parce que je me sentais vraiment mal et il n'y avait personne pour m'aider.\n\nPour conclure, je suis retourné à l'hôtel seul avec beaucoup de peine. Je suis monté à ma chambre, sans téléphone fonctionnel et je suis resté là pour le reste de la journée et le jour suivant à vomir avec des crampes dans l'estomac, seul.\n\nJe n'ai pas une seule fois entendu de l'équipe médicale/l'hôpital, à part l'équipe de réservation de Bookimed me demandant de laisser mon avis, donc voici mon avis.\n\nJe n'écris normalement pas de critiques car elles prennent tellement de temps... mais dans ce cas, j'ai vraiment senti que je devais le faire en raison de ma terrible expérience et pour avertir les gens des conséquences potentielles. Peut-être que j'ai juste eu de la malchance... mais s'il vous plaît, réfléchissez-y à deux fois avant de donner votre argent à ces gens et n'y allez que si vous n'avez vraiment pas d'autre alternative !\n\nMa douleur a légèrement diminué, mais la douleur est encore présente près de deux semaines après l'insertion du ballon, et les vomissements aussi, donc je devrai aller aux urgences ce week-end pour me faire examiner correctement car je n'ai aucune équipe médicale pour m'aider ou fournir une quelconque forme de suivi. Je suis vraiment effrayé.\n\nRecommanderais-je Bookimed/Hisar Hospital ? Absolument, à 100 %, Non !","en":"I departed for my procedure on Friday night to have it done on Saturday morning 20th January. Up until the moment I booked my flight - the communication from Bookimed was on point, but straight after I sent them my booking confirmation, I didn't hear anything from anyone. So on the day of departing, I still had no confirmation for the hotel, transfer, etc. and had to keep chasing for the information. Not a good start obviously, for someone who is leaving their home for a medical procedure abroad!\r\n\r\nWhen I arrived in Istanbul airport around 5 am - I had to wait a good 40 minutes for my transfer, although sending all my flight information and being told that the driver was going to be there waiting for me. Incorrect.\r\n\r\nThe hotel room was ok- no soap, shampoo or working phone, (which was not good at all, as I couldn't ring for any assistance after during my whole stay). Initially I was given a twin room, although being on my own so had to ask to change it to a double bedded room. The receptionist was hesitant, but then did it after I insisted. \r\n\r\nOn the day of the procedure- it was really messy! I got to the hospital and wasn't sure where to go, because no instructions were given to me beforehand of what to expect, dos and don'ts... absolutely nothing! Then once they got someone to meet me, everything was all very rushed! Different individuals came by, which I did know who they were as they didn't really introduce themselves... to make me sign for different things, one of them being a disclosure for going through a general anesthetics, which I had no idea was going to take place as no one had ever mentioned! \r\n\r\nThat was my first shock as I had travelled abroad, not knowing I would have been under sedation during the procedure. I didn't prepare myself mentally for that and was really annoyed I was not warned in advance, as that in itself carries its own risks.\r\n\r\nAnyway, the worst came afterwards, once the procedure had been done- I felt really weak, in severe pain (in my stomach) and extremely nauseous. Again, I couldn't understand why I was in so much pain as I was not warned nor given any information beforehand. So all an unpleasant surprise. The nursing staff were nice, but couldn't' speak English. \r\nI felt rushed out of my room as they made it clear it was time for me to go, by making signs and leaving the door open! But I was in no condition to go yet, as I wasn't well! \r\n\r\nThe nutritionist came really quickly and rushed the information to me. She left without even leaving her contact details should I have any questions or for any aftercare.\r\n\r\nThen another guy came along to to give me the medication to take with me, which I had to pay for , again not expecting it as I thought all was included, I was told again to go.\r\n\r\nI asked if anyone was meeting me to go over the final things- he said no. Wow. I could not believe it. It was just like: okay, we have your money now, you've got your balloon- off you go! Ciao! \r\n\r\nI was just appalled, upset and really scared actually, because I felt really unwell and there was no one there to assist.\r\n\r\nTo conclude, I walked back to the hotel alone with a lot of struggle. Went up to my room, with no working phone and stayed there for the rest of that day and the following day vomiting and with cramps in my stomach, alone. \r\n\r\nI have not once heard from the medical team/ hospital once or anyone other than the Bookimed booking team to leave my review, so here I am leaving my review.\r\n\r\nI don't normally write reviews at all as they are so time consuming... but on this instance I really felt I ought to on this occasion due to my awful experience and to warn people of the potential consequences. Maybe, I was just unlucky... but please think about it twice before giving your money away to these people and only go there if you really have no other alternative! \r\n\r\nMy pain has subsided slightly, but the pain is still present almost two weeks after having the balloon inserted. and the vomiting also, so I will need to go to A&E over the weekend to get myself checked out properly as I have no medical team advising me or providing any form of after care. I am really scared.\r\n\r\nWould I recommend Bookimed/ Hisar Hospital ?
