Clinic: Baskent University Hospital
Diagnosis: surgical operation
Everything is alright. Upon arrival at the airport, we were organized a transfer, brought to the hotel. The next day, we had tests and an operation. The first night was incomprehensible (after anesthesia), but we overcame it. And then the rehabilitation process began.
