Reviews and Testimonials- Plastic Surgery Abroad

Dear Meditourist,

My wife and I were patients at your clinic in week 30, 2011 and would like to thank you for your professionalism and assistance during our stay. Here a short description/feedback on how we experienced our dialog and the process with you.

On our vacation in Hungary we chose to look for a plastic surgery since we have heard that Hungary was a much cheaper country to get an operation in compared to Denmark and via Google we found, among others, Dr Vincente Rodrigo and Meditourist.

The reason for us calling Meditourist first, was due to the very professional homepage that included a satisfactory and comprehensive information level. Next, our call was answered first time by Patient co-ordinator Joanna Karoly there not only well at speaking English but she could also setup a meeting already the day after.

Here we were welcomed by both Dr Vincente Rodrigo and Joanna Karoly in their office downtown which was in good condition, close to the hospital where the surgery would find place. Dr Vincente Rodrigo was confidence inspiring and gave an impression that what we requested was for him business as usual, and after some very good advices about the process we agreed to use Meditourist for our surgical procedure.

In a foreign country without any knowledge about the healthcare system or the hospitalization it was not without concerns that we � again only the day after � arrived as agreed at the hospital. Here Joanna was meeting us in the reception and helped us to our room. A big thanks to Joanna that even though we were not her only clients that day she was staying most of the time at our side to ensure we were okay.

The operation went as planned and it confirmed to me that Dr Vincente Rodrigo and his team, is very professional about their work. With the expected pain after, the staff did everything to help with both guidance and painkillers. Can�t find a single thing that I am dissatisfied with.

After our surgery we had the pleasure to experience that Meditourist called us several times to ensure everything was going as it should. Even 3 weeks after we still experience a high present and service minded assistance when we reach out for Meditourist regardless if its small or big question/concerns.

It has been a great experience and Meditourist receive our biggest recommendation. Br/ Heidi&Max

"I cannot thank you enough for the way you looked after e whilst I was in Budapest"

Dear Joanna, I would just like to say thank you so much for everything both before and during my stay in Budapest. I was a little nervous about my surgery but your very friendly emails made me feel very relaxed. By the time I left the UK I was really looking forward to meeting you and having my surgery.

I cannot thank you enough for the way you looked after e whilst I was in Budapest. I am grateful to you for picking me up at my hotel, taking me to the clinic and, most of all, for staying with me whilst I had my surgery. I am so pleased you did this for me as it meant I was not alone. As you know, I am hoping to return to Budapest later this year for further surgery. I will not hesitate to have my surgery through meditourist and I look forward to seeing both you and Dr. Rodrigo again. Hoping to see you soon.

Many thanks once again.

Kindest regards Elaine

"My Face is Proof of Dr Rodrigo’s Experience and Talent"

...When I initially decided to take this step I was nervous and afraid of the unknown. I met with a lady called Joanna who pointed me in the direction of the Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery Clinic. From this moment I knew I was in good hands with Joanna being a qualified nurse and was very informative and put my worries and fear at bay. I felt comfortable and confident in Dr Vincente Rodrigo from my first appointment; Joanna accompanied me to this and to all appointments thereafter. All of the staff was very friendly and professional. In addition to this the clinic was attached to one of the main hospitals in Budapest which added comfort. On meeting Dr Rodrigo who, with no obligation or pressure to proceed with the surgery, he talked me through my options and all the risks and advised me to take time to make my decision. The day before my surgery they carried out a full health check to see if I was fit for the surgery. This further reassured me that this was a professional risk adverse service. The following day on receiving my clear results I arrived to the hospital and was met by very professional and friendly staff and of course Joanne. I also met with Dr Rodrigo again who advised me further about the surgery. My post op check two day after the surgery where I met with Dr Rodrigo and Joanna where he removed and redressed my plasters and was extremely nice and gentle. For no additional cost Dr Rodrigo said I could make an appointment at anytime or call in each day if I wished. After a short time my scars barely exist. My face is proof of Dr Rodrigo’s experience and talent. I feel and look amazing. My expectations of my procedure were exceeded. I am constantly smiling and have pep in my step. I would highly recommend Dr Vincente Rodrigo to others.

"Műtétem remekül sikerült"

2006-ban operált Dr Rodrigo arcplasztikával. Műtétem remekül sikerült, azóta is "tart" a feszessége.52 éves voltam akkor, de bár előbb csináltattam volna meg... Sokan csodálkoztak, hogy milyen kipihent és szép vagyok. Fiatalabbnak nézek ki a hasonló korú barátnőimnél Önbizalmam megnőtt a műtét után , sikeresen alakult a párkapcsolatom. Sokan 6- 7 évvel fiatalabbnak tippelnek. Műtét utáni napon úgy örültem a jó eredménynek, hogy nem is emlékszem fájdalomra...Egy hónapig egy kicsit feszült, de utána ,ahogy telt az idő egyre szebb lett. . Hálával gondolok a doktor úrra ,hogy széppé varázsolt :))) Minden 50 év körüli nőnek csak ajánlani tudom ezt a műtétet!

Hála és köszönet :Vivien

"Just a friendly thank you for making my experience in Budapest (cosmetic and tourist!) absolutely fantastic!"

Just a friendly thank you for making my experience in Budapest (cosmetic and tourist!) absolutely fantastic!. You and Dr. Rodrigo have an outstanding partnership, and it shows in everything you do--from the hospitality to the medical care and everything in between. I feel quite certain that you will see me again (and anyone I can refer, I will!).

"The result is truly fantastic"

"Joanna followed up with subsequent emails, reassuring and encouraging me along the way"

Dear Joanna,

I sought cosmetic surgery for my nose because the tip of my nose was very large and the bridge of my nose had been broken. I met with surgeons from four different clinics in the UK but received conflicting information from them regarding the necessary procedure, and none of them reassured me that they could significantly improve the looks of my nose.
Two of them also said they would not be able to change the bridge of my nose. I contacted Meditourist regarding the surgery and was contacted by the representative, Joanna, who was amazing. She responded to my initial enquiry, then contacted me by telephone to discuss the procedure and logistical details. Joanna recommended an inexpensive but very modern hotel near the clinic, and provided personal attention in regards to meeting with Dr. Rodrigo.
Joanna followed up with subsequent emails, reassuring and encouraging me along the way. I brought photos from magazines of the type of nose I wanted. Dr. Rodrigo was very confident and positive about the results I could expect, and he went far beyond my hope!
Joanna met me at the hotel in Budapest and walked me to the clinic for my first first consultation with Dr. Rodrigo. Dr. Rodrigo was very confident and positive about the results I could expect, which was very reassuring. Joanna sat with me prior to going into surgery, and was at the clinic the following day to check on me. Then I met with Dr. Rodrigo and I for my two follow up consults before I returned to the UK.
The results of the surgery went far beyond my expectations, and was exactly as Dr. Rodrigo predicted. I am completely satisfied, thrilled in fact.
Joanna was as excited as me about the results of my surgery. She, and Dr. Rodrigo, has literally changed my life. I'm extremely grateful and would encourage anyone to pursue cosmetic surgery with Dr. Rodrigo because the doctor you choose is vitally important. I truly believe you could not find a doctor that could give you better results.

"Vivre une expérience de chirurgie esthétique, quand on est un homme de 50 ans, ce n'est pas si simple."

Bonjour,

Vivre une expérience de chirurgie esthétique, quand on est un homme de 50 ans, ce n'est pas si simple.
On se sent souvent un peu seul, fragile.
Ce n'est pas un sujet que l'on partage volontiers, même avec ses proches.
Internet est une mine d'informations, mais souvent un puits sans fond où on se perd vite.
Dès lors, le sourire et la chaleur de l'acceuil sont de précieux atoûts.
Les atouts maitres de Joanna .
Dès votre premier contact avec Klinik Contour, elle est là, partout, pour tout.
Joanna, c'est gentillesse, sourire, mais aussi conseils et sagesse, écoute et vraie objectivité.
Ses yeux pétillent, elle comprend vos questions, comme des dizaines avant vous.
Le Chirurgien est du même Tonneau. Vicente Rodrigo, c'est un sage, et un vrai grand talent dans les mains.
Serein, à l'écoute, un vrai pro.
Disponible.
S'est t'il trompé ? Sans doute, mais je pense pas souvent. Et les leçons auront alors été apprises.
Toute l'équipe donne confiance, on ressent cette longue pratique , cette expérience d'années de travail.
C'est un métier, tout simplement. Il ne s'invente pas, il se pratique.
Ce métier, Vicente, Johanna et toutes les dames autours d'eux, le pratique presque avec légerté.
Preuve qu'ils ont confiance en eux, et c'est aussi très important, non ?

"It was a pleasure to be your patient"

Dear Dr Rodrigo and Ms Karoly,

Thank you for your kind and informative mail about post operative care and for the supportive comments about me as a patient. It was a pleasure to be your patient. Everybody was warm and kind and down to earth in their manner, and I felt treated with respect and expertise.
It´s Saturday, the third day after the surgery at your clinic, and I am still feeling good. My body seems to have adjusted well to the intervention, and I have had no pain or discomfort except for ordinary swollen- and stiffness.
I think that the way you all treated me had a positive impact on my state of mind both before and after the surgery. You behaved towards me like a was an individual person that was seen and understood as such, not only a case. That preserved a feeling of myself as a subject, and I think that might be a part of a positive healing process.
Before finishing this email, I will again thank you so much for the work you have done. Emotionally the meeting with you was good, respectful and comforting, and I believe that this is an important basis for the information about before and after procedure to get in/be processed....

Best regards,

Karen

"Everyone has been wonderful "

I would ask you a favour to pls thank ever so much all the nurses at the clinic: Judit and the other night nurse and the lovely day nurse too; everyone has been wonderful and made this experience if not pleasurable certainly friendly and not as traumatic as i feared! all your support has been amazing especially when travelling alone!! Many many thanks.

"I am satisfied with the result"

It is now 1 month since my operation, and I am healing well. I am now able to exercise in the gym and jogg for an hour without pain. I am satisfied with the result so far.
I wish you all the best, and will pop by your reception next time I am in Budapest.

Many Thanks

"I was really happy with my results"

Dear Joanna,

I was really happy with my results. I'm looking forward to coming back soon and also the new fillers seem interesting with a 2 year life! I hope to come back in a couple of weeks to the clinic to discuss some work.

"I am so grateful for you and the good doctor."

Joanna,

I came across a photo of my nose before the surgery and was more pleased than ever that I had the surgery. I am so grateful for you and the good doctor.

God bless you.

"I feel very confident with my new face and I received a lot of compliments."

Hi Joanna!

Just I want to let you know I am totally recovered. I feel very confident with my new face and I received a lot of compliments. I look very natural but in the same time much younger. But I have no words to say thank you again. I am so happy I meet you.
I went for B0T0X last week and my lady assistant was impress with my new look. I really take her compliments in consideration because she is professional cosmetician.
Today I went for massage and the they could not believe I am 52 years old. I hoop I can visit you in September. Thank you very much for your attention during my trip to Budapest.
Please let the Doctor know how much I appreciate him.

Many hugs for you and Dr Rodrigo.

"L'intervention a eu lieu début janvier et cela s'est passé à merveille, grâce au savoir-faire du Dr. Rodrigo"

Témoignage

J'avais été chez le Dr Vicente Rodrigo, au mois d'octobre, pour de plus amples renseignements concernant une liposuccion du ventre et des hanches, où j'avais été accueillie par Johanna et le Dr. Rodrigo, avec une gentillesse incroyable. Ceux-ci m'ont expliqué ce qui allait se passer.
Par la suite je les ai contactés à nouveau par mail pour avoir tous les renseignements possibles et imaginables.
L'intervention a eu lieu début janvier et cela s'est passé à merveille, grâce au savoir-faire du Dr. Rodrigo, de ses assistants et de tout le personnel de la clinique. Et pourtant, ce ne fut pas une intervention vraiment simple, dans mon cas, car j'ai été pas mal atteinte dans ma santé, par le passé. Tout s'est déroulé à merveille et je me sens en pleine forme.
Je voudrai remercier tout le personnel de clinique (dont je ne sais pas les noms) pour leur gentillesse et leur disponibilité et plus particulièrement Johanna et le Dr. Rodrigo.
Après une nuit passée à la clinique(avec tout le confort), on vous ramène à l'hôtel et par la suite on vient vous trouver et on vous téléphone ! .On se sent presque de la famille
Je ne peux que recommander le Dr Rodrigo et toute son équipe. D'ailleurs je suis tellement contente que je vais y retourner en 2013, pour une liposuccion du cou.

"I can't thank you enough for all you did for us while we were in Hungary"

Hi Joanna,

Thank you so much for all your help and support while we were in Hungary, it made a huge difference to our stay.
I am healing very well, I don't need pain killers anymore. I am very happy with the results (but I know the results are dependent on me maintaining my weight)
Again I can't thank you enough for all you did for us while we were in Hungary,

Kindest Regards,

Lorraine
