Bariatric surgeons abroad

On 04/05/2023 I had gall bladder surgery via laparoscopy, the process was quick and easy. Endless gratitude to Professor Aziz Sumer and his team.

I overcame my fear and had gastric surgery for weight loss, which I was very afraid of and considered very risky. Professor Sumer reassured me, he radiated confidence and was very friendly. Today is day 11 after surgery and I feel great. I was discharged from the hospital on the 3rd day without any problems or complications. I am grateful to Dr. Sumer. Many doctors perform this operation, but I am glad that I met this particular doctor.

3 years ago, Professor Aziz performed gastric surgery on me. 3 days before the operation were devoted to examination and making a decision about the operation (since I was still hesitating). Now I'm fine and I have the weight I want. Aziz Sumer is truly a competent doctor. I recommend him.

Within half an hour, Dr. Schumer relieved me of the gallbladder pain that I had suffered from for months and the umbilical hernia that occurred at the birth of my son. I have been diagnosed before, but I never had the courage to go through with these two surgeries. On Wednesday, December 12, 2018, Aziz Sumer performed closed surgery on my gallbladder and umbilical hernia. Only 10 days have passed since the operation. I'm so happy to be pain free! God bless you, doctor. I wish you a healthy life and may success and happiness be with you.

2 months ago I had surgery on my stomach, and I lost 22 kilograms in 1.5 months. Now I can sleep in my own bed, I can walk, I got rid of medications, I started to like myself again... Thousands of thanks to my wonderful doctor Aziz Sumer, who helped me take a step into a new life.

Dr. Aziz Sumer performed gastric sleeve surgery on my sister. I would like to thank him again for his care and high professionalism.

Everyone at the medical center was so kind and helpful. The surgeon is just a real gentleman and a great person, as is the whole team; they all tried to help and support me at all times. So I would confidently recommend them to anyone without exception.

Well I have just returned from Istanbul after my gastric reduction surgery and I can say that the service there is top notch. All the staff we interacted with were just wonderful. The surgeon worked wonderfully and was always on call, as was the dietician. The WhatsApp group was also very helpful because honestly, I didn't always understand everything and often asked questions.  15/10/2022

I had gastric reduction surgery because I couldn't handle losing weight on my own. All the staff at Novemed were just wonderful. They gave me detailed information on how the process would go and the steps to take before surgery. And after the surgery, the excellent team of dietitians explained all the details to me. The surgeon, Dr. Mohammed Zubair Uchunju, was amazing. He supported me, monitored my condition and was always up to date with everything that was going on. 05/10/2022

This is a wonderful clinic for gastric surgery. I flew in from the UK to have gastric reduction surgery. Everything was organized to the highest standard. The staff were very friendly. Dr. Muhammed Zubair Ucuncu proved to be a professional and caring doctor. The hotel where I stayed was lovely and the clinic staff impressed me with their attention and patient care. 15/09/2022

I underwent gastric reduction surgery two days ago and I can say I wish I had done it sooner! Everyone was so kind and relieved me of all my worries and concerns. Rosa was a pleasure to talk to and when I traveled to Turkey from the UK, I knew I could trust Novemed completely. The nurses were fantastic, always willing to help and care. Dr. Muhammed was fantastic and I recommend him to everyone without a doubt! Thank you so much to them! 28/07/2022

Dear doctor Ibrahim Kataras, I owe my change to you, I regained my health I thank you and your crew a lot, we are so glad to have you

I can say that this is the best decision I have ever made in my life. The life I have lived so far was a preview in terms of life quality. People considering having a surgery should make it real as soon as possible for living each moment of the life with quality and enjoyment and acquire a healthy body. I am grateful to Dr. Ibrahim Karatas and his crew for not leaving any questions in my mind.

Dr. Karatas - you are the most beautiful detail in the turning point of my life. I am thankful for both your attitude and interest, good-humour and your manner in every way.

I went to Ibrahim Karatas for my diabetes surgery, he performed a very good surgery and got rid of this disease. I would like to thank Ibrahim Karatas and his team and express my gratitude, may God keep you dear doctor, our prayers for you. 25.10.2018

We express our immense gratitude to Dr. Ibrahim Karatas. Despite my father's advanced age, he performed a successful surgery to remove colon cancer. We are very satisfied with our doctor. 26.04.2018

A year and a half ago, Dr. Ibrahim operated on my wife's intestines. May god bless you, my wife is fine now, I don't know how to thank you. May god give you and your family a long life, may god bless you and your assistants who helped you during my wife's surgery. 13.03.2012

Very ethical person, respectful of his profession, great with patients. 13.03.2012

I would like to express my great gratitude to my highly qualified, friendly and attentive doctor Mehmet Deniz, who on 23.06.2021 performed a complex bilateral operation for the removal of inguinal hernia. The operation was extremely successful. The doctor did not leave me for a minute without attention - neither before the operation, nor after. He was always there to support and encourage me.

Dr. Mehmet Deniz performed the surgery to the highest standard and the results were excellent. Even though I was having a gallbladder removal at the same time and my pain tolerance was very low, the doctors took exceptional care and everything went perfectly. I highly recommend going to Dr. Mehmet Deniz if you want to live a healthy lifestyle. Thank you so much for everything, Dr.

After discovering a mass in my spleen, the doctor recommended that I contact Mr. Mehmet Deniz. He explained in detail the cause of my discomfort and described the upcoming surgical process. Fortunately, the surgery went well. (My post-operative scar has almost completely healed). The doctor also carefully monitored my post-operative recovery treatment. (Vaccination against pneumonia and flu). Mehmet Deniz is a very competent and empathetic doctor. I highly recommend his services, was very comfortable.

I am completely satisfied with the work of Dr. Mehmet Deniz. I have recommended him to many of my friends, I am so satisfied. He is a very attentive and caring doctor. I had surgery to reduce my stomach and also to remove a gallstone that Dr. Mehmet discovered while other doctors did not notice it. Thanks to Dr. Deniz, I was able to lose 30 kg of weight in 4 months. He kept me informed of what was going on all the time. We continue to be monitored. The doctor always responds promptly when I call him.

I travelled from the UK alone to get gastric bypass surgery. I was recommended highly from my hair transplant doctor so trusted in him. This was a good decision. On the first day you have check ups to fully check you are healthy enough for the operation checking your bloods, breathing, heart and also mental state to undertake the surgery. All the nurses at hospital Liv are helpful and polite and would recommend too anybody to consult with Dr Ömer I’m Istanbul as his services all follow up are great! Thank you Dr Ömer and your team for making the process stress free with transfers and translators all included.

Thank you
Jack

I did my gastric sleeve surgery at Liv hospital with Dr omar avlanmis, he is the best at gastric sleeve,he did the surgery to my sister couple of years ago. This is my second day after surgery and am feeling better already. Hospital five stars and hotel very nice with everything close by.

Dr. Omer has been our family's surgeon for 10 years. He saved me and my mom from colon cancer. My mom lives for 10 years and I live for 5 years thanks to his successful surgery.

From Paris to Istanbul! Omer Avlanmish is a gastric balloon genius! Did everything without pain and so fast! Very good choice for me.

I made the right decision. Dr. Omer and his team know how to take care of patients. I lost 20 pounds in the first month. Thank you very much for everything.

I can only recommend the clinic and the doctor. I am very grateful to everyone for the wonderful support and guidance on my journey. The doctor did an excellent job. Thanks to him, I feel better than ever before.

Excess weight I have struggled with my weight since I was 16. Finally decided to take action and found Hermes online. My contact was a lovely Turkish girl who spoke perfect English. I convinced my sister to come along. They didn’t even charge extra for the double room at the hotel. I’ve lost about 18 kg and continue to lose weight until stabilization. Still a long way to go, can’t wait to post a bikini photo on Instagram... Thank you so much!

The surgery at Hermes Clinic and the surgeon were simply amazing, I am so happy that he operated on my stomach, I can’t express enough gratitude.

From the first day of battling breast cancer, the doctor was there every time it was needed. His surgical skills are undeniable. He is a super person and doctor who always keeps in touch with his patients and instills confidence in them. I and all his patients are very lucky.

We want to express our gratitude to Dr. Yahya Ozel for his attention and care during my husband’s surgery. He is a very attentive doctor who genuinely cares about his patients.

In 2006, I underwent thyroid surgery at Numune Hospital. Dr. Yahya Ozel was my physician. The surgery was very successful, and during the treatment, other doctors also noted the high level of professionalism. A huge thank you to Dr. Yahya Ozel and his team for everything.

It's been a year since my surgery and I can honestly say it was the best decision of my life. On July 27, 2022, I underwent a sleeve gastric resection with Dr. Nejdet Derici. He and his team are true professionals. They took care of me from the beginning and continue to do so now, taking an interest in my well-being and results. The weight loss was more than I expected; I am now 36 pounds off and feel happy! My health and quality of life is great now. Life is wonderful. I am eternally grateful to them. A huge thank you to everyone at the Novemed Clinic for giving me the tool that gave me my life back.

I would like to thank the counselor who made sure I was well received and that everything went smoothly during my stay in Istanbul. I then met with an interpreter who walked me through everything that needed to be done the day before surgery. Dr. Derici showed great professionalism and all of the dietitians were thorough in their duties in helping me determine what my lifestyle would look like in the future. The two nights I spent in the hospital were absolutely wonderful! The nurses did their best taking care of me and even went above and beyond expectations by using the phone to translate so I could understand what was going on and not worry. Overall, the experience was amazing and well worth it!

My experience with gastric bypass surgery. Hi all! I would like to thank all the Novemed staff involved in my surgery. Starting with my consultant, translator, thanks to all the nurses and, of course, the operating doctor Necdet Derici. From the moment of my first contact with Novemed everything was easy and simple, all my questions and problems were answered quickly and in great detail, picked up from the airport as agreed, the hotel was good, and everything went well on the day of the operation, 24/7 support from daytime and night nurses. I would like to thank them all for their support. I highly recommend the clinic and doctor.

I had my surgery on Monday. Today is Saturday and I feel very well, as if nothing had happened! I am grateful that I came to Novemed Clinic, the staff is wonderful. Dr. Derici is a true professional, his experience and knowledge can be absolutely trusted. I came to Turkey with my husband and daughter and everyone here was very friendly and caring. Thank you very much for everything!

I had my gastric bypass surgery on 3rd May 2021. Dr Derici was very helpful and put me at ease as soon as I met him. He made sure all my pre op tests came back fine before going ahead. After my surgery he came around to let me know it was all done and there were no concerns. He came to examine me daily until I left the hospital. He has really friendly and calm manner which reassured me. I would definitely recommend him to anyone thinking about bariatric surgery. Thanks so much Dr Derici. I'm looking forward to my much healthier new life.

My name is Lucy. I have recently undergone bariatric surgery at Medical Park Clinic. Everything went perfectly, starting with the organization of the trip from Spain, which was supervised by Hanim, and the accompaniment of the interpreter Lale, for which I thank them for their professionalism, attentiveness and care throughout the trip. I also thank Dr. Hakan and his team for their excellent work - at the highest level. I wholeheartedly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants to undergo weight loss surgery and is looking to change their life for the better.

Dr. Hakan Seyit, Dr. Eyüp Gemici and Dr. Osman Köneş are a great team. Also all the other staff members whose names I don't know showed the utmost care. If you treat people with respect, you get the same care in return. Thank you all.

Awesome energy, courtesy and attention to the patient's feelings all combined with high professionalism. A huge thank you to Hakan.
