Diagnosis: Infertility / IVF program

Here they performed an egg retrieval for me as part of an IVF program. The nurses were very kind.

I am grateful to them for their help, despite the fact that we spoke different languages.

Diagnosis: General medical examination

The best hospital, wonderful nurses and doctors, but I gave only 4 stars due to the lack of interpreters.

It’s called an international hospital, but there are practically no interpreters. Still, many issues can be resolved quickly with Google Translate.

Diagnosis: Achilles tendon rupture

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Selim Türkkan and the team at Kolan International Hospital in Şişli for the excellent care I received during my Achilles tendon repair surgery.

Dr. Selim demonstrated not only exceptional professionalism but also a kind, respectful attitude at every stage of communication. His clear explanations, confident handling of the surgery and ability to reassure the patient made a difficult situation much easier.

I am sincerely grateful for his expertise and for the way he treated me as a patient. Thank you again for your dedication and outstanding level of medical care.

A good modern hospital with modern equipment and a high level of cleanliness.

The staff’s communication style is good. I spoke with a cardiologist, and he turned out to be a very nice person who patiently answered the numerous questions I asked him.

Unfortunately, we never completed the treatment at this hospital. I continue to look for other options.

Diagnosis: Specialist consultation

The staff at the reception desks look completely indifferent. They speak quietly and don’t look you in the face, so they are hard to hear.

Inside the hospital there is constant bustle and a large number of people. The premises are cramped, the waiting areas small and uncomfortable.

There is a constant feeling of being in everyone’s way. Unfortunately, appointment times are almost never kept, and you have to wait a very long time.

Diagnosis: Outpatient treatment

First of all, I want to note that my comments do not concern the doctors.

The staff look incredibly unhappy and behave as if there are no patients or their relatives around. They chat freely among themselves and are completely unable to build normal communication with patients. The call center staff, assistants and reception workers are extremely unfriendly.

Even if you ask a very simple and clear question, getting an answer is almost impossible. You have to repeat the same thing several times. It’s the same at the call center.

It’s impossible to reach the doctor, or his assistant either. Moreover, they don’t even call you back. You literally have to chase after the assistants. Honestly, I regretted coming here.

When I ask to contact the doctor, they just tell me that the follow-up period has expired and I need to pay for a consultation again. The same rehearsed answers.

If you’re ready to put up with such conditions — then you can come.

Diagnosis: Acute gastroenteritis

I used to like this hospital, until I came here with a friend who had arrived from abroad.

We sought help for severe nausea and diarrhea. Since the patient was a foreigner, her family and the insurance company needed to approve payment for the tests.

The nurses, doctors and sanitary staff constantly asked only about payment and permission to perform procedures. Instead of medical workers, they resembled traders more. It was extremely unpleasant to watch a sick person, who is trying to resolve issues with an insurance company from abroad, being constantly pressured about financial matters.

It’s impossible to tell who is in front of you — a doctor or a bazaar trader. I won’t come here again and won’t recommend it to anyone.

Diagnosis: Comprehensive health examination

I had a health examination here and was very pleased.

Our interpreter was Nargiza — a very friendly and professional specialist. You can feel that the doctors really know their job.

This place cannot be called cheap, so I would recommend coming here if you already know your problem and need surgery or serious treatment, to avoid excessive costs.

Diagnosis: Surgical treatment

I underwent surgery at this hospital. My doctor was Professor Turgut İpek — a very experienced and good specialist.

An interpreter was provided, however the staff and nurses hardly speak English, so an overnight stay at the hospital can be difficult.

Five stars to the doctor.

I am very disappointed with this hospital.

I had been here before and everything was great, but today I came to do a PCR test before a trip. When the result came, it turned out that it could not be used for travel.

I called, but I had to return to the hospital in person. No one even apologized, and the staff were so busy with Instagram that they couldn’t be bothered with customer service.

Diagnosis: Lymphoma

I have been in this hospital for five months now. I was diagnosed with lymphoma.

There is a special attitude here from the nurses and doctors. They always tried to make me smile and gave me strength to keep fighting.

Despite the fact that I came from another country and am far from my family, here I feel at home thanks to the wonderful staff.

The hospital itself is also very good: the conditions, the wards, the food — everything is at a high level. I recommend it to everyone, even if it’s just a cold. You won’t be disappointed.

Diagnosis: Orthopedic condition

First of all, I want to note: if you make an appointment in person, you will be provided with an interpreter and an escort who will help you get to the doctor and make sure you received the necessary care.

I was accompanied by an English-speaking interpreter, and I also saw Arabic-speaking interpreters helping other patients.

Our appointment was with Dr. Arya, who is fluent in English, Persian and Turkish. He is a brilliant orthopedist with many years of experience, and that’s no exaggeration.

Diagnosis: Outpatient treatment

Over the past few months I have visited Kolan International Hospital several times and would like to share comments that I consider constructive criticism.

First of all, the hospital’s medical staff are very professional, friendly and dedicated to their work. Especially the doctors — excellent specialists and communicators who treat patients with respect and understanding.

On the other hand, the work of the reception leaves much to be desired. This is a very important department of the hospital, but there is a serious lack of organization here. There are no unified standards for receiving patients and scheduling consultations. Reception staff often behave arrogantly and disrespectfully. Patients are perceived as a problem rather than as people who need help. I had to wait for hours and days for issues to be resolved, encountering unfulfilled promises and being ignored.

In addition, a serious problem is the lack of multilingual staff. An international hospital must have staff fluent in English and other languages. The use of interpreters does not always help and sometimes becomes an additional barrier between doctor and patient.

Although I was impressed by the hospital’s equipment and the quality of the doctors’ work, I don’t want to return here because of the negative experience with the reception.

Diagnosis: arthrosis

A few months ago I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis. Before that, I periodically had problems with the joints, they hurt, crunched, slightly swollen, but now inflammatory processes have begun. I didn’t know where to go and how much it would cost. I spoke with my friend – I heard that a couple of years ago she underwent cancer treatment abroad. I wanted to know at least the most general information, how realistic it is in general – to be treated in a foreign clinic. She told me that she was choosing between Turkey and Germany, but in the Turkish clinic Kolan the price turned out to be much more acceptable, even though she had the opportunity to be treated either there or there. I also contacted that hospital. A few weeks later I was already flying for treatment. Dr. Ahmed Dogan worked with me. I am very grateful to him for his professionalism and kindness. Now my state of health is stable, I don’t observe problems with joints, I try to follow the doctor’s recommendations in everything.

Diagnosis: lung cancer

A few years ago, my sister was treated for cervical cancer in Turkey at one of the major gynecological clinics in Istanbul. Therefore, when I faced an equally serious problem – I needed lung cancer treatment, in Turkey I knew that I would find qualified specialists. Another important argument is that the cost of cancer treatment in Israel and Turkey, despite its good quality, remains more acceptable than in many European clinics. I needed surgery, everything went well. I hope that there won’t be a relapse. I check regularly. Thanks to the doctors of the Kolan clinic.

Even during the preliminary examination, I felt the competence of the doctors of the Kolan Hospital and their advice earned my trust. On the day of the consultation, everything went well, and I was pleasantly surprised that the doctors of the department were informed about me, my clinical picture and my previous diseases. The surgery to remove the lipoma went without complications. Care and support in the ward were quite polite. The food was tasty and balanced. Thank you for the pleasant atmosphere, I know I was a difficult patient, as I am critical of hospitals.

Is it worth doing bariatric surgery at Kolan?

Stomach BotoxSisli Kolan International has the Obesity Surgery Center. Patients are treated by an interdisciplinary team of specialists, including surgeons, endocrinologists, nutritionists, psychologists, and cardiologists. Doctors individually select a treatment, depending on the degree of obesity and other factors.

Endoscopic procedures include:

  • Stomach ballooning is a placement of an intragastric inflatable balloon for a period of 6 months to 1 year. The balloon will occupy part of the stomach cavity, providing a feeling of satiety with a small amount of food.
  • Stomach Botox is the introduction of Botox into the gastric muscles in order to reduce their contraction and reduce acidity. This slows down the digestion process and dulls the feeling of hunger for 4-6 months.

Doctors perform these procedures using gastroscopy for 15-20 minutes under sedation on an outpatient basis.

Surgeons of the center perform bariatric operations on patients:

  • sleeve gastrectomy is the removal of most of the organ and the formation of a “tubular” stomach, which ensures rapid saturation when eating a small amount of food;
  • gastric bypass is a “turning off” of most of the stomach and small intestine from digestion, which allows patients to eat less food.

These operations are laparoscopic. Surgeons need 3-4 incisions less than 1 cm long to perform them. Patients return to normal life after a maximum of 5-7 days.

Foreign patients are consulted and operated on by the leading specialist in bariatric surgery of the Kolan Hospital Group network and Professor Sadik Yildirim (Pr.Dr. Sadik Yildirim).

  • before radiation therapy in order to plan treatment;
  • after chemotherapy or radiotherapy to assess the response of the tumor to treatment;
  • in patients with cancer recurrence.

The use of PET-CT provides accurate diagnosis and increases the effectiveness of treatment in all types of cancer.

 

What types of oncology are treated at Kolan Hospital Group?

The Oncology Center of Kolan Sisli International Hospital provides specialized care for all types of cancer (solid tumors and blood diseases) at the level of European standards. The center has clinics specializing in certain types of cancer treatment:

  • oncosurgery;
  • chemotherapy;
  • radiotherapy;
  • orthopedic oncology.

The center provides personalized treatment according to modern international protocols, including targeted and immune therapy. During chemotherapy, Ice Hat is used. This is a device in the form of a cap to cool the scalp. Cold causes the blood vessels that feed the hair follicles to contract, so the medicine does not affect them, and the hair does not fall out. Oncologists use various types of targeted and immune preparations such as monoclonal antibodies, interleukins, interferons, and others.

For blood cancer, hematologists perform a bone marrow transplantation. Every year, at the Bone Marrow (Stem Cell) Transplant Center, doctors perform 100 allogeneic and autologous BMT according to European protocols.

Radiation therapy for cancer - Elekta Versa HDRadiation therapy in the Clinic of Radiation Oncology is carried out using the latest generation linear accelerator Elekta Versa HD, so it has a number of advantages:

  • all innovative irradiation technologies are used, including 3D Conformal, IMRT, IGRT, VMAT, SRS/SBRT;
  • built-in CT scanner in Elekta Versa HD visualizes the tumor before and during the treatment session, which ensures the accuracy of exposure;
  • The ABC (Active Breathing Coordinator) device, which makes it possible to protect organs at risk that move during breathing (for example, the heart) from radiation is used;
  • Symmetry software can track tumor movements associated with patient breathing during treatment without setting a marker, so it is possible to irradiate very small tumors while the patient is breathing freely;
  • The planning of radiotherapy sessions is carried out using the Monte Carlo (Monaco) method, which is the gold standard in radiotherapy;
  • The HexaPOD robotic table, on which the patient is placed, accurately positions it relative to the radiation source;
  • The beam delivery system minimizes exposure to healthy tissues and organs.

Elekta Versa HD allows to undergo safe and patient-friendly radiation therapy for cancer with any localization in a shorter time than with other accelerators.
