From the very first call, I felt an overwhelming sense of reassurance and knew I was in the best of hands. Arri’s expertise was nothing short of amazing, and she patiently answered every single question I had. For the ones she couldn’t answer, she went above and beyond, connecting me with trusted doctors and experts in Türkiye who could. Arri is not just honest and reliable; she’s incredibly organized—something I’m truly grateful for, especially since I was feeling nervous about undergoing surgery so far from home.

Thanks to Arri, my whānau and I were able to relax and trust the process, from the moment we started planning the trip to our time spent in Türkiye. She took care of everything—flights, accommodation, transport, activities—and all we had to do was show up and follow the carefully planned itinerary she created for us. My partner, whānau, and I will be forever thankful for the genuine care and aroha Arri showed us, guiding me safely back home to NZ with a new chance at life. Thank you, Arri, and the entire AAJ team! We are so grateful and happy we chose to join the AAJ whānau!
