FAQ - Frequently asked questions
What makes Emsey different from other Turkish clinics?
Emsey Multidisciplinary Clinic is the first hospital to be included in Turquality (Turkish Quality), a government program to promote Turkish brands in the international arena. Thus, Emsey was recognized as a national brand that brings Turkish quality and novelty to the whole world.
Emsey is a new international-level clinic where you can get high-quality medical services “under one roof” from check-ups to bone marrow transplantation. For this, Emsey has both unique specialists and the latest technologies. Also, this clinic is distinguished by the high-quality modern design, comfort, and service inherent in five-star hotels in Turkey.
Emsey not only accepts foreign patients but also has representative offices in Oman and Azerbaijan. In them, the clinic staff provides consulting services to the population of these countries.
How is infertility treated in Emsey?
The IVF in Emsey Center accepts couples with various forms of infertility:
- Women with no fallopian tubes, adhesions in the appendages, endometriosis, infertility of unknown etiology, and condition after treatment for cancer. In the latter case, previously prepared cryopreserved eggs or ovarian tissues are used.
- Men with impaired spermatogenesis (oligospermia, obstructive azoospermia), and unexplained infertility.
Some couples are unable to conceive a child even with normal test results and need psychological support before IVF. Emsey also provides this type of assistance from professionals such as psychologists and psychotherapists.
The IVF Center in Emsey accepts for treatment patients with the most difficult cases: both primary and after unsuccessful IVF attempts at the place of residence and in other countries. Unused eggs and/or embryos are cryopreserved. They are stored for 3-5 years for use, if necessary, in the next IVF attempts.
At the IVF Center, doctors apply a personalized approach to each patient and ensure the birth of healthy children.
The center is headed by a unique specialist in the field of reproductive technologies, Dr. Nesrin Baştuğ. The doctor has over 25 years of experience. He is an authority in the international medical community. In the treatment of infertility, he uses the latest stimulation protocols, high-tech laboratory equipment for pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), assisted hatching (AH), and other procedures. In some cases, Dr. Bastug transfers the embryo directly into the fallopian tube using laparoscopy (GIFT or ZIFT procedure).
The pregnancy rate at Emsey for patients under 35 is over 60%, over 40 is over 40%. The cost of IVF is about $5,000.
What kind of operation for intervertebral hernia can be arranged in Emsey?
In Emsey, a neurosurgeon performs a minimally invasive operation to remove such a herniated disc – endoscopic microdiscectomy, which is the “gold standard” for the treatment of herniated discs.
The doctor removes the hernia through a 5 mm incision using an endoscope (a device with a video camera and an instrument).
This is a minimally invasive one-day surgery.
The patient is discharged on the same day in the evening if the operation was in the morning, or in the first half of the next day. In Emsey, this kind of operation is performed by the neurosurgeon Dr. Ahmet GÜLMEZ. His qualification allows to plan a trip to the operation by day and carry it out in accordance with this plan.
How is radiotherapy for cancer performed in Emsey?
At Emsey, physicians use a Trilogy linear accelerator to carry out cancer radiotherapy. With this device, radiologists use 5 radiation modes:
- 3D CONFORMAL – three-dimensional conformal irradiation in accordance with the shape of the tumor;
- IMRT – radiotherapy with modulated intensity;
- VMAT – short time (4 min), accurate and powerful irradiation using special equipment in the form of an arc;
- IGRT – CT-guided radiation therapy;
- SRS – stereotactic radiosurgery or single or double point irradiation of tumors.
All types of radiotherapy allow maximum preservation of healthy tissues and minimize complications during irradiation of a tumor of any location, shape and size. The radiologist is a member of the oncological council, which individually selects the method of radiotherapy for each patient.
What innovative cancer treatment methods are available at Emsey?
The following innovative cancer treatments are available at the Department of Nuclear Medicine:
- Treatment of primary and metastatic liver cancer by radioembolization.
For treatment, doctors use microspheres ranging in size from 20 to 50 microns, labeled with radioactive yttrium-90. Using a catheter through the femoral artery, they are injected directly into the vessel that supplies blood to the tumor in the liver. The microspheres accumulate in the tumor and irradiate it. The microspheres accumulate in the tumor and irradiate it. In addition, they embolize (clog) the capillaries and stop feeding the tumor. This double action reduces the swelling. This method is applied for 4-5 years. Approximately 200 patients receive this therapy annually.
- Lutetium (Lu-177) radionuclide therapy for prostate cancer and other somatostatin receptor-positive (SSTr) neuroendocrine tumors in adults and children.
Neuroendocrine tumors include:
- astrocytoma, meningioma;
- neuroblastoma,
- thyroid cancer;
- small cell and non-small cell lung cancer;
- breast cancer;
- melanoma;
- lymphoma;
- sarcoma;
- renal carcinoma.
This type of treatment is indicated for the treatment of all inoperable and metastatic neuroendocrine tumors that show a positive SSTr content on a dedicated PET-CT scan with Ca 68 DOTA peptide. Lutetium-177-labeled peptide is diluted with isotonic sodium chloride solution (10-100 ml) and injected intravenously over 10-20 minutes. The patient stays for at least one day in a single room with special equipment. The course of therapy is usually carried out in the form of 4-5 cycles at intervals of 6-8 weeks.
Treatment with the Lu-177 peptide prolongs life, reduces symptoms, restores biochemical markers to normal, and improves the quality of life in patients with SSTr-positive neuroendocrine tumors.
How are bariatric surgeries performed in Emsey?
In obese patients with a body mass index (BMI) greater than 40, surgeons in Emsey perform bariatric surgery. Before the operation, the patient is evaluated by a multidisciplinary team, including endocrinologist, surgeon, therapist, psychiatrist, and nutritionist. The appropriate surgical method is selected depending on the age and health of the patient.
All surgeries are performed laparoscopically. They use three methods:
Adjustable gastric band. It is performed by applying a silicone band around the stomach. It inflates by injecting fluid from a container just under the skin. The bandage compresses the stomach in the form of an hourglass and restricts food intake.
Sleeve gastrectomy. The operation is performed by removing approximately 75-80% of the volume of the stomach from the digestion process. This type of bariatric surgery has gained popularity due to the low complication rate and excellent weight loss results.
Gastric bypass. It is performed by dividing it into two parts and connecting a small part of the stomach to the small intestine. In the process of digestion after surgery, only a small part of the stomach is involved, which ensures weight loss.
In Emsey, operations are performed by professors, members of the European Association of Endoscopic Surgery – Prof. Tarık Zafer Nursal and Assoc. Prof. İlker Murat Arer.
Can a 13-year-old child with severe scoliosis undergo surgery at Emsey?
Emsey has a spinal surgery center run by Prof. Mehmet AYDOĞAN with 17 years of experience in scoliosis surgery. He has been involved in the treatment of 10,000 patients with scoliosis.
At this cutting-edge center:
- An interdisciplinary approach is used in the diagnosis and treatment of scoliosis. The council includes a neurosurgeon, an orthopedist, a neurologist, a physiotherapist, a rehabilitation therapist, a psychologist, and other narrow specialists.
- Minimally invasive (endoscopic) non-infusion spinal surgeries are performed. This is an intervention without fusion (fusion of the vertebral bodies). Correction is achieved by placing a structure of screws and strings on the vertebrae, which straightens the curved area. This method does not restrict movement after surgery.
- Pre-operative preparation and post-operative care are carried out by experienced staff.
After such an operation, the curvature of the spine in a child is corrected by 60-70% during the growth period. Over time, with the help of this method, scoliosis is cured by almost 100%.
Is it possible to cure scoliosis in Emsey without surgery?
Emsey features a specialized clinic for the treatment of scoliosis and rehabilitation of the spine. Patients of all ages with scoliosis, as well as pain in the neck, back, lower back, coccyx, and with the following pathology apply to this department:
- kyphosis, posture disorders, including those due to diseases of the heart and lungs;
- hernias in various parts of the spine;
- spondylosis, spondylolisthesis;
- spinal stenosis;
- after traumatic injuries of the spine;
- after spinal fractures;
- back problems due to osteoporosis;
- after neurological and orthopedic surgeries on the spine.
After examining and diagnosing the patient, the orthopedist and physiotherapist draw up a treatment plan with the help of Schroth therapy. This is a system of various breathing and strength exercises aimed at the three-dimensional correction and stabilization of the spine. The physiotherapist, with the help of an interpreter, teaches the patient exercises that he will continue to do at home for a long time. The department has accumulated extensive experience in training and effective application of this technique, including with foreign patients. Also in the medical arsenal of doctors in this department, there are manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, massage, and physiotherapy.
What does the “second opinion” service at Emsey include?
The “second opinion” of a specialist from Emsey is an inexpensive service that is popular with residents of the CIS. Consultation with a qualified doctor often allows to clarify the diagnosis and optimize treatment. It is especially advisable to get an independent “second opinion” when prescribing an operation, a protocol for treating an oncological disease, with an unclear diagnosis. As a rule, CT, MRI, PET-CT discs are reviewed for this. In Emsey, you can quickly get a “second opinion” from any specialist on any medical issue.
How quickly can I organize planned treatment in Emsey?
Emsey is focused on international patients and is a 5-minute drive from Sabiha Gokcen International Airport.
The doctor-coordinator of Experts Medical has the opportunity to contact the specialist from Emsey in the shortest possible time, provide a treatment plan, and also organize the trip itself.
