Poštovani ravnatelju / Upravo bolnice,

Obraćam Vam se s velikom željom da pohvalim rad dr. Čurlina, koji je prošlog ljeta pružio neizmjernu pomoć mojoj obitelji, konkretno mojoj kćeri Mihaeli. Iako sam ovu zahvalu željela poslati puno ranije, moji vlastiti nanizani zdravstveni problemi u tome su me spriječili, no dobrota i stručnost doktora Čurlina ostali su mi u neprestanim mislima.

Kao pacijentica koja i sama koristi usluge Vaše ustanove, želim istaknuti da je doktor Čurlin izniman stručnjak – njegovi savjeti i predviđanja vezana uz povišene nalaze kalprotektina kod moje kćeri pokazali su se potpuno točnima, što je kasnije potvrdila i specijalistička obrada.

Međutim, ono što doktora Čurlina izdvaja i zbog čega Vam prvenstveno pišem jest njegova iznimna ljudskost i neposrednost. U današnje vrijeme rijetkost je sresti liječnika koji je spreman uložiti dodatan trud i vrijeme u komunikaciju s pacijentom, pružajući savjete i podršku čak i izvan standardnih okvira. U trenucima kada smo se suočavali s brigom za djetetovo zdravlje i neizvjesnošću, njegova dostupnost i empatija bili su ključan faktor koji mi je izravno smanjio ogromnu količinu stresa.

Osjećaj da nismo sami u problemu i da imamo liječnika koji nas vidi kao ljude, a ne samo kao brojeve u sustavu, značio mi je više nego što mogu riječima opisati. Takav pristup ne samo da olakšava pacijentu put kroz liječenje, već ulijeva duboko povjerenje u Vašu ustanovu i zdravstveni sustav uopće.

Također, želim iskoristiti ovu priliku da pohvalim cijelo Vaše osoblje. Svaki moj posjet Vašoj poliklinici bio je obilježen iznimnom ljubaznošću i profesionalnošću, što ulijeva veliko povjerenje i čini boravak kod Vas ugodnim i sigurnim.

Smatrala sam važnim podijeliti ovo iskustvo s Vama, jer su liječnici poput dr. Čurlina, koji uz vrhunsku stručnost zadržavaju i ovakvu razinu ljudskosti, istinska vrijednost i ponos Vaše bolnice.

Ljubazno Vas molim da ovaj dopis proslijedite upravi poliklinike.

S poštovanjem,

Ane Mihatović

Nikolina,

Just to let you know we are now home.

May I please take this opportunity to thank you and the rest of the staff at the clinic, you all made what was not a good experience more than acceptable, the staff were always positive and very friendly.

May I also say that we also found all of the people we dealt with in your country very friendly and accommodating, we look forward to visiting your country again, and depending upon where we visit would like to pop in and say hello – if that would be OK with the clinic.

Is your postal address as shown on your headed paper – Poliklinika Marin Med, Dr. Ante Starčevića 45, 20000 Dubrovnik?

We wish you all the best.

Liz and Wally Pullman

Dear Marin Medical Team,

I wanted to thank you all for your very kind and professional care of me when I had to disembark from the Viking ship and seek medical treatment starting on 27 June.  It is not how we had planned to spend our 25th wedding anniversary cruise, but you helped us to make the best of it.  You are very good at what you do!

In part through all of you, God blessed us in challenging circumstances.  And, if I had to do it all over again, Dubrovnik is the place I’d choose to disembark (a wonderful city).

Please share this with the doctors and staff.  Sorry I could not thank each of you personally.

Doviđenja,

Jonathan Jellema

Dear all,

I would like to thank all your staff sincerely for your kindness and care of my partner and I during our isolation stay with you on 07/07/2022, it was very much appreciated.

Hvala vam

Miss Gaynor Rollin and Mr Darren Salt

Hello Dr. Niksa Kojic,

we have attached a small video to show you that Errol has regained almost all movement in his hand and there is very little scaring. thank you. We know that your skill and care helped in this success.

Good morning,

Does want to said thanks for all the attention and support given by the medical staff in MARINMED in Dubronik, special thanks to : Doctor Ivan Curlin, Martina Raic, Hana Bogovac & Antun Zeravica if I miss any name I am sorry, I will always will be thanksfull for the attention given by all the staff.

Rgds. Esteban Pinnock

Hi Dr. Curlin,

I am so happy to tell you that I am home now. We came back on Saturday, June 8. I am feeling very well considering how sick I was. I want to thank you for your excellent care. At times, I thought that I was not going to make it, but you pulled me through.

I also would like to thank your wonderful hospital staff. Antonio and the other nurses went over the top to help me. Please tell Antonio how much I miss him as I feel that he became a friend while I was there.

After my discharge from the hospital, I did enjoy a few day at the Sheraton Hotel in Dubrovnik. If one has to land anywhere, this would be the place with its beautiful surroundings. The food there was exceptional. I would highly recommend their buffet as I have never seen such a feast in my life.

Again, thank you so much, Pam

Hi,
I am writing principally to thank Dr Kojic and all staff including physiotherapy for helping me during my visits while on holiday in Cavtat in June of this year. The standard of care in your clinic was very good and I want to thank you for that.

On my return as recommended I followed up with a spinal surgeon who prescribed Lyrica (Pregabalin) for pain relief and recommended surgery to be carried out on August 14th. The Lyrica has been very effective in managing pain. I am currently reducing the level of Lyrica I am taking and finding that the underlying level of pain is greatly reduced so I am hopeful that I will not go ahead with the surgery as scheduled.

Once again thank you very much for the high level of care afforded to m at your clinic.

Best regards
Pat Naughton

Dr. Curlin,

Just a quick update on health. We arrived in Denver about 2200, so very long flight. Admitted to Anschutz Medical Center. Stayed up most of night doing lots of tests including another CT. The next day at 1200 the interventional radiologist Dr Luke Beyers drained the abscess and placed a drain. They found that the abscess was actually growing in my liver, probably bacteria passing through liver. Procedure was over in less than hour. Will be on iv antibiotics for another 4-6 weeks, drain out in another week.

My warmest regards to you and other doctors and staff for all their excellent care.

Bob

Dear Ivan,

Many thanks for getting back to me so quickly. As we have 3 medical centres in the Kotor area, I assume its Opsta Bolnica Kotor that you are referring to.
It looks like the only 24 hour hospital of the 3. I must admit when you told me I had a 2 cm Gall stone I was a little shocked.
However, i shouldn’t be surprised after the life style ive had for the last 20 years. May I add how much of a pleasure it was to meet you and how very professional you are.

Many thanks,

Nathan Puttock

That is wonderful news Dr. Curlin! I have to admit I’ve been a little stressed about getting the results. Does this mean I no longer need to take the Salofalk? I’m finishing up my antibiotics.
I can’t express enough the wonderful, exceptional treatment I experienced under your care. Thank you again many times over! Maybe I’ll come back in 5 years for my next exam☺️.

Kind Regards,
Sharmon Sharp

Dear Dr. Lenz, Management and Staff
My husband and | were under your care early in of June. Myself, beginning June 6th and my husband
beginning June 8th.

We want to thank-you from the bottom of our hearts for all the kind care we received during our
unintentional departure from our Viking cruise.

Everyone working at the clinic without exception, was professional, treated us with caring, comforted us
when we certainly needed it, chatted with us when time allowed and never let us doubt for a moment
that we wouldn’t be heading home as soon as possible.

We can’t remember everyone’s name, but we certainly remember all the faces. From Doctors, nurses,
front desk staff and a few behind the scenes.

Unfortunately we didn’t have the opportunity to see your beautiful city of Dubrovnik, but our time
under your care, we are certain, surely reflects what a kind and beautiful city you live in.
We were slow to recover; Don more so. He still tires but at least we are mostly back to what we were
before our trip.

Once in awhile in life there is a very “stormy” moment, but if lucky enough, we are sometimes awarded
with a stunning “rainbow”. That is how we feel about our time at MarinMed. All of you were certainly
our “rainbow”.

With warmest regard and with greatest respect
Louisa and Don Roberts
