Diagnosis: rhinoplasty
I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Yakup Duman for his professionalism. I had never undergone any surgeries before, and I completely trusted the doctor. My nose looks perfect — I could never have imagined that I could look this amazing. My life has changed significantly, and I’ve become much more confident in myself. It truly felt like I went on a vacation, not a surgery. The care was excellent, and the coordinator, Victoria, was very friendly and always available. Thank you, Central Hospital — choosing you was undoubtedly the right decision!

Diagnosis: sleeve gastrectomy
I underwent gastric sleeve surgery (sleeve gastrectomy).
Dr. Murat Shendur and his team are wonderful, I highly recommend them! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The condition of the hospital rooms was much worse than I expected in terms of quality! ⭐️
The first transfer in a VIP car was uncomfortable: neither the driver nor the driving style were satisfactory. ⭐️
But after the operation, we were driven by a driver from the clinic — if I’m not mistaken, his name was Mehmet Bey.
He was so polite, careful, and cautious behind the wheel that he was a true professional. Appreciate drivers like that! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I met with my surgeon Dr Murat the morning of my surgery and he also went into great details and answered all my questions. Ahlen & Buera are so kind. Welcoming and easily make you feel as ease and help in anyway they can. Thank you all

Clinic: Central Hospital Istanbul
Diagnosis: surgery
Hospital looks very clean and nice and it’s very organized. Most of the staff is OK but not all the nurses are caring. While some of them are always friendly and helpful, other orget about you when sitting in the patient room or don’t treat you too kindly, and when you call them they come all grumpy like you are disturbing them.

Diagnosis: pneumonia
My little son had gotten pneumonia, and due to his situation he needed to stay in the hospital, he was admitted to Central Hospital for 6 days. They cared for him so much, the hospital room was so clean, and the nurses and staffs are so professional. They behaved so friendly and professional. We didn’t feel that we are foreigners. The doctor checked my son two times per day and one time at night. Thank you to all personnel. I recommend highly this hospital to everyone.
