Radiation Scan and Analysis of Same. Was Superb. Dr Amir and staff incomparable.Assistant gave scrip for sleeping.

My story is for expats and foreigners in Moscow. Yesterday night my wife had a feeling of intense burning in her chest. She just recovered from covid (having made negative test that day). So, I took her to EMC to be faster than a state ambulance. We were at their premises at ca. 22:15. The place was not busy at this late hour. We explained our situation that we fear of heart attack or stroke. A receptionist first invited us to take a sit and wait for in-house emergency doctor. But then he realised that less than 14 days gone since first positive test. He told us urgently to leave the premises, saying that they can not help us in any way. He did not bother even to offer calling state ambulance. So, EMC pushed its patient, who might have had a life threatening condition, onto a street at midnight without any help. Beware, you should always have a plan B (and C) who you call in Moscow in such situations since evidently EMC can fail big time. Luckily for us we had other options, an ambulance from a competing private clinic arrived within 30 minutes and they helped my wife, so her life is not in danger anymore.

NOT RECOMMENDED. Visited the clinic for an emergency situation treatment. At the entrance a lady stops me asking are you aware of the fees. Minimum would be 165 euro then she says even for emergency cases we have to first fill up all the forms and formats, scan passports, take all data then we will listen to your problems. Upset about the service level given the prices. Big turn down. Also to add. I had been there after not finding a traumatolog doctor in their Arlovskaya clinic where the receptionist did same price detailing, holding me in pain at the gate and then says doctor needs time to be called even if emergency. Finally after suffering in both the EMC outlets I had to go to another local clinic. On the way in pain right now.

My son was treated here for a fractured arm. Dr Burstev did an incredible job both with the surgery and immaculately neat stitches, as with the care and attention given during follow-up appointments. Nurses and other staff also showed great attention and we really couldn't ask for more. Grateful.

Good specialists but expensive. Billed in EUR

Expensive company than a hosptial

I am a customer of the EMC for about 15 years. During the last 5 years the attitude of the hospital has changed. Before it was clearly the best place to get medical attention, especially when you are a foreigner and don't speak too much Russian. But now the game changed. Not only are they very high price and I most of the time I have the feeling that I am recommended additional check which are not needed. Now they also don't trust their customers any more. As a Foreigner, with a record in their database for 15 years, you have to prepay your treatment. I have always paid by bills with them before leaving the building on every visit, so I have not given any reason for this. And then the payment doesn't work well. The payment terminals are difficult to use / not working and the alternative is to go to the ground floor and pay at the cash register. For this money I expected perfect service. Don't get me wrong, I think the doctors are good. But the management I don't like.

Is it even legal to charge as much for health care? Seems like the regulator isn't aware of the price list of this hospital. Other than that having insurance isn't a guarantee that you'll get services in this hospital because there is lack of real time communication between the service provider and the insurance company, so you still have to guarantee payment with your bank card. If the two do not communicate in an hour, money is deducted from your card. Then back to square one...running after the insurance for compensation! Just a terrible experience to say the least.

Even after more than 25 years as a loyal customer, I was made to feel like a potential criminal who is lying about your insurance coverage. In the middle of a series of consultations and tests, I was forced to stand at the reception desk and have a lengthy discussion with the receptionist and the insurers before I could get the correct invoice with only 20 percent co-payment. This clinic is fine if you don’t mind being publicly humiliated and pay everything up front.

Excellent clinic, I come from another city, I have been treating for 3 years. Recently I was forced to go to another clinic, it was just terrible. I am very glad that I returned to my doctor again. The work is truly professional, there have never been any problems with the quality of work. Very friendly staff, all of them. We treated caries, worked on root canals on more than one tooth, no complaints I have never heard any bad reviews about the blade from anyone. Resto is the place to go if you want quality, attention to detail and safety. I recommend it for those who are afraid of dentists, they are completely different there. The only significant drawback is the sooooo high prices. But if you consider that the materials are of a high level and the quality of work is excellent, then the price-quality ratio is really fair, I really like it there. All my life I have had problems with fear of dentists, but the treatment there is very caring and there are no additional unpleasant sensations. I'm really glad I found a good clinic

I turned to this clinic after removing a complex tooth in budget dentistry, sat on painkillers for several days. Absolutely everything is good in this clinic and the attitude and prices (I counted on a large amount) and professionalism. Many thanks to Ilyina Maria Mikhailovna and nurse Christina (I apologize if I made a mistake with the name). And of course thanks to the friendly girls at the reception.

Excellent clinic! Indeed a team, a team of leading specialists in the field of dentistry! I have been a client of the clinic for more than 10 years, literally from the first visit I was impressed by the service. Everything is at a very high level. You feel like a person. Great staff and all the support staff. Sincere gratitude and low bow to Sergei Leonidovich Litvinov, Alexei Alekseevich Izotov, Elena Aleksandrovna Nedorezova, and of course, Aleksey Petrovich Reshetnikov for such a wonderful organization! We see the whole family in the clinic. Yes, for me this is also not a cheap pleasure, but it's worth it, if it weren't for ResTo, then by my 50 I would already be chewing with dentures, with such a speed of preparation of my teeth by other specialists. I come to the clinic from Glazov, and I really recommend this clinic. All the best and prosperity to ResTo!

Our family has been with Dental Fantasy for over 10 years. 11/10/23 a team of professionals led by doctors Meretikova A.A. and Topchiy V.S. I spent more than 3 hours saving the teeth of our one and a half year old youngest son while he was sleeping. Everything went surprisingly easily and calmly. We were once again convinced that our choice was correct. Excellent specialists who sincerely love their work, small and large patients, very kind and attentive people. Maximum tact, delicacy, unobtrusive care. Dental Fantasy is calm and cozy for both the baby and the parents.

Very professional, many competent doctors, convenient service for both children and adults. Excellent work of managers and all other staff, ensuring cleanliness and comfort. I return myself and with children many times and confidently recommend it to my friends and acquaintances. However! As in any other place where your body and health are concerned, choose a doctor who is comfortable for you personally, so that there is no unnecessary stress, but only trust

The child looks forward to each visit like a trip to his favorite cafe. In addition to the animators, play area and gifts that attract her, there are wonderful and attentive specialists who help keep children’s teeth completely healthy without unnecessary interventions. The main thing is to follow all the recommendations) I’m happy that now going to the dentist is a small holiday)
