KCM Clinic reviews
The most terrible clinic and the most disastrous doctor for back surgery that I have ever seen. It's just a rip-off and they want to sell you additional operations. After the bad operation in Poland, I now have to undergo a major operation at home to limit the damage. Stay healthy and if anything happens, definitely don't go to this clinic.

Sean had suffered from the low back and bilateral groin pain for the last three years. He searched for professional treatment with even worse results. The only solution was a DIAM Spinal Stabilization System implanted in two levels.

No real experience, the site is obscure and ununderstandable. No human lien... a zéro...

I had Gastric Sleeve surgery on the 8th of July, 2017. From being met at the airport to the return trip, everything was superb! Marion, my driver was so sweet! He took us to see a village with three castles! Martin, a member of staff who was in charge of seeing that patients get where they are supposed to be and SO much more, was welcoming, friendly and did everything and more to make sure I was taken care of. Martyna was very kind and couldn't do enough to make everything more than okay for me. Their English is excellent which was very helpful. The nurses were lovely, friendly and helpful, too. The cardiologist was brilliant. An intelligent, beautiful lady that exuded intelligence and kindness. She was always there if needed. The surgeon was informative and put me at ease. He checked on me many times after the surgery. Philip is on the admin side of the clinic and answered all of my emails pre- and post-op so quickly and came and introduced himself to us before we left hospital. I can't fault this clinic. I was told aftercare is not limited to three or five years, they are available to us as long as we need them. I suppose the one thing I might suggest is go in cooler weather, July was HOT and no air conditioning!!
