First class service from Dora, Dr Furlop and the nurses in the hospital. Everything was explained very well in English. They looked
after me very well made me feel at home. I would not think twice about returning for other treatment. I would like to say thank you to

I flew out to Budapest three days ago to have Laser Surgery on both my eyes. I had been quoted £3990 in the UK by
several companies even though most of them advertised rates from £395! From the moment I arrived in Hungary SCMT have
been at my side to guide me through the process. Their advisor met me at the airport and brought me to my hotel - I decided to stay at
the same hotel were the clinic is based. The clinic staff have been absolutely amazing. Before traveling here there was a chance that I
would be unable to have surgery due to the size of my eye (apparently they are small). During the preliminary examinations they
thoroughly checked, and even phoned the surgeon who was at a conference elsewhere. The following day the surgeon herself checked my eyes
and declared that they could perform the operation. All they needed to do was create a larger 'flap' in my eye. Later that afternoon I
was met by SCMT representative who accompanied me to the operating theatre. The procedure itself was completely painless and only took
about 15 minutes from start to finish. The results were stunning immediately. 10 minutes later I was back in my hotel room. Within a few
hours my sight had improved even further. The only side effects I have even noticed are that my eyes are a little itchy and bloodshot,.
But this will pass over the comming days. The following morning I returned to the clinic for a thorough checkup. Every member of staff
asked me how I was - their kindness was very touching. I was declared fit and spent the afternoon walking alongside the Danube - the
city is beautiful. It is so nice to see things without the frame of glasses surrounding your vision, or the sensation of contact
lenses. I cannot recommend this service enough. If you have ever thought about laser eye surgery check this company out. I saved over
£1500 even after paying for flights and 5 nights in a 4* hotel. To everyone at SCMT and the clinic in Budapest a
huge THANK YOU. The results have been miraculous.

Dora was fantastic, picked us up from the airport and looked after us while being in Hungary. Dr Fulop, Suzanne and the other staff at
the clinic spoke very good English, explained everything which was going on and they looked and care for me while being in the clinic.
When I returned to the UK my GP was unable to get my medication so Dora and the clinic kindly purchased it over in Hungary and
dispatched the medication to the UK for me.

We used the Robery Karoly Clinic through Smart Choice Travel for our IVF treatment. From start to aftercare we have had fabulous, first
class care and treatment from both Dora Keller the Co-ordinator for Smart Choice and Dr Fulop and his team at the clinic. There was no
language barrier and every question was answered promptly. My husband and I would recommend this clinic for IVF and would have no
hesitation in going back again.

I had fertility (IVF) treatment in Hungary in July. I had a very pleasant experience right from the start eventhough the outcome was not
successful for me. The contact person was extremly helpful from day one, helped me with any problems or requests I had throughout the
whole journey. The doctor and his nursing staff was very knowledgable and kind, I felt I got special care. I will be returning for
future treatment, hoping for good result! Thank You!

Very caring and personable team, from the co-ordinator, nurses, to the consultants. Nothing was too much trouble for my co-ordinator
and the pick up from the hotel to clinic and back again made the whole process so simple and effortless. The choice of accommodation
also excellent - a real home from home. The first treatment has not worked, but I will definitely be returning for a second IVF
cycle, and would definitely recommend Smart Travel and Robert Karoly Clinic to others seeking IVF treatment - good value for money.

I wanted to commend Dora, Smart Choice Medical Travel and the professionals at the Robert Karoly Clinic in Budapest for the great care
that they rendered to me during my IVF treatment in Hungary. I arrived in Budapest on January 23rd, 2012. Dora was at the airport to
pick us up and take us to the clinic. The staff at the clinic were very professional and Dr. Fulop was very kind and knowledgeable. His
calm demeanor help me relax during this very stressful time. My stimulation protocol went okay, I had 3 five day blastocytes
transferred on February 1st. , and I am happy to report that my pregnancy test result was positive this morning! Again, I want to thank
Dora and Dr. Fulop for all their help.

We had a round of IVF treatment in UK in Spring 2012, and a round in July in Hungary. The comparison in how the clinics treated
patients was very marked. The Hungarian treatment at the Robert Karoly clinic through Smart Choice Medical Travel was far superior to
our UK experience. The treatment was far more individualised and personal. For example, Dr Fullop did ultrasound investigations every
two days during the ovarian stimulation phase and adjusted the treatment accordingly. In the UK the standard protocol is used on every
patient with no variation. The Hungarian contact and the clinic were were pro-active in keeping us up to date and informed of the
process at every stage, which helped make the process much less intimidating.

I would definately reccomend Smart Choice. Dora Keller the Hungarian co-ordinator was totally amazing, so friendly and helpful and made
all the appointments so easy. The apartment we stayed in was lovely and 2 minutes from the clinic and also 10 minutes from the centre.
Overall it felt like a 2 week holiday and we felt like the treatment was a secondary element, which is exactly how I think you need to
feel. Kept you really relaxed and made everything really easy. The clinic was good, the english speaking nurse was lovely and although
not everyone can speak english perfectly it doesn't make any difference really as there is always someone on hand to translate. I would
recommend treatment here 100%
