Hello, my name is Alyson. I am from the UK. I was diagnosed with eliomai sarcoma, which is a soft tissue sarcoma, in early 2022.
I received some initial treatment in the UK.However, I was told that there was no further treatment that could be given to me. I want to explore further options, so myself and my family did a lot of research. We located the Anadolu Hospital through Health-Tourism.com. We used a coordinator (Ms.) Lal. She was very helpful, and she put us in touch with the consultants that we needed to be able to get more information about my disease and have any treatment options that were available to me.
We traveled to the Anadolu Hospital in April 2022, where further diagnostic testing was performed.
Patient Review, Video Testimonial UK Patient, Alyson for Eliomai Sarcoma at Anadolu Medical Center
I received several treatment options. Initially, I was
in the UK, I was given six months to live. Three months with chemotherapy which
wasn’t something that I wanted to dwell on.
I’ll proceed with, I wanted to look at other options. Anadolu
would have given me those options.
I received the treatment plan. I saw a consultant
radiologist, a consultant oncologist, a consultant gynecologist, and a
pulmonologist. I also received all the diagnostic tests really swiftly.
Basically, I had all the MRI scans, CT scans, blood tests one day. They were recorded and ready for the
consultants the following then, so the intro says itself was absolutely
seamless and there was no way to no long delays, very speedy and very
professional.
I’ve had a whole team around me. The treatment I’ve
had has been amazing. I received targeted radiotherapy. The team have looked at
any other options that could be available to me, systemic treatments etc. These weren't offered to me in the UK, so I feel that we really made the best move by
coming and finding the underdollar. It’s very easy, the staff are very
supportive and very knowledgeable. We’ve enjoyed very good treatment and the
care I’ve received is second to none. I certainly recommend the Anadolu
Hospital to anybody exploring other options.
I received my treatment. I’m continuing to come back
every three months for diagnostic checks then. At the moment, everything is
going really well.
The care I’ve received is fantastic and I would
recommend anybody exploring other options to approach the Anadolu. It’s very
easy, very straightforward and very well supported.
There are no language difficulties. Everybody’s either
speaks English or translators are available to translate, so that shouldn’t be
all right.
Thank you.
Alyson M.
