It is common for patients to assume that involving a “consultant” or “medical facilitator” will increase the cost of treatment compared to contacting clinics directly. Yes, this does happen in many systems — but not in ours.

Dr. Barakaev has exclusive contracts with clinics that cover the costs of working with international patients and provide a minimal fixed compensation for consultants.
This means the price for the patient does not increase — no extra fees, no hidden charges.
On the contrary, there are significant advantages:

• Real experience working with selected clinics and doctors, with deep knowledge of trusted specialists.
• Special discounts available specifically through Dr. Barakaev, thanks to long‑term cooperation with clinics, pharmacies, hotels, and transport companies.
• Personal international experience — Dr. Barakaev lived for several years in India and Iran, and has visited Turkey, Russia, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan.
• Expert knowledge of travel logistics (best routes, seasons, accommodation, risk assessment, etc.).
• No risk of incorrect translation, which is crucial in medicine (Dr. Barakaev speaks English, Persian, Russian, Hindi, and his native Tajik).
• Medical background — as a trained doctor, he fully understands treatment processes and strictly follows medical confidentiality and ethics.
• Experience in related fields such as pharmaceuticals, logistics, procurement, sales, and finance — all essential for medical tourism.
