Breast Check Athens, Greece

At the beginning of my IVF journey, I messaged several different clinics/doctors, as it's always good to have some comparison. From the responses I got, and after the initial message exchanges, it quickly became clear Dr. Bazeos would be my best choice - he always replied promptly to all questions I had, in a logical organised manner. There was no pressure to decide 'here and now'; I could ask questions and Dr. Bazeos always answered, even though he had no guarantee I'd choose to do the treatment with him! He also speaks excellent English, which was important to me. I had the treatment (IVF) in the IASO hospital in Athens. I was surprised how big and busy the hospital is. Sometimes there were small delays probably because of the number of patients, but it didn't really matter because I was on holidays anyway. In a way I was reassured I made a good choice - so many other people were having treatment at IASO as well! I had 4 appointments during the 2-week period of taking hormonal injections. Dr. Bazeos always answered all questions, even though sometimes he was super busy, and was always happy to help if I needed anything (e.g. finding medication). Then, there were the most important parts - egg retrieval, fertilisation and embryo transfer. After each stage, with every little success, I was more and more optimistic the IVF would end in a pregnancy. I was extremely happy each time I learned something went well, and so was Dr. Bazeos – I am sure he has done thousands of IVF cycles before, but he seemed genuinely happy for me & always wished me good luck. And now the best part – I am pregnant!!! 😊 It is, of course, still early, and I realise things can go wrong, but still… This was my first IVF cycle and I’m so happy I chose Dr. Bazeos. He is a very knowledgeable specialist & I fully trust his decisions. I’d definitely make the same choice if I had to do it again.

During the COVID period, I recently had a laparoscopic hysterectomy performed by Dr Pistofidis at the Lefkos Stavros clinic. After receiving opinions from 4 other doctors (in Spain), upon my first meeting with Dr Pistofidis and meeting some of his staff, I knew he was the right person to perform this operation. Had the surgery mid-September which went perfectly (no blood loss), was at home the next day and recovered completely without a problem by following all instructions. The entire staff both office and clinic were very organized, efficient and amiable...everyone knew exactly at what stage their patient was and communicated instantly; the clinic is clean, well run and orderly. If anyone has a gynaecological problem, Dr Pistofidis and his team are the only ones I trust and highly recommend. The pricing structure is very fair and not exorbitant...a miracle these days.

He was prompt in replying and very helpful in accommodating my last-minute needs for a scan. Communication was in English.
