The cost of inpatient treatment includes the cost of staying in the ward, hotel services. The inpatient clinic has single and double luxury wards with TV, telephone and bathroom. And, despite this, you probably won't want to stay here - it's still a hospital.
Patients usually stay with us for a short time - on average 4 days. Thanks to intensive methods of treatment and effective drugs, hospitalization does not drag out, and after a few days the patient goes home.
