Hasan Gürsoy

Prosthetic knee joints

Burak Kaymaz performed prosthetics on both knee joints for my mom. She has rheumatoid arthritis and is quite a challenging patient. The doctor was attentive to the treatment process and was able to put my mom at ease. Thanks to him, both surgeries went flawlessly. My mom, who is 70 years old, now walks without any problems. In addition to a high level of professionalism, the doctor has a positive attitude and knows how to calm the patient. I recommend him to everyone.

Hip prosthetics

A very respected and wonderful doctor who does his work with love and professionalism. Dr. Burak has been my husband's primary care physician for three years and has been addressing his hip problem as if it were a member of his family. Today, my husband underwent surgery to place a hip prosthesis. Despite our fears due to previous surgeries, Dr. Burak handled it flawlessly. The surgery was a success with only a few hours of pain and discomfort. Thank you dear Dr. Burak and his team for such a professional approach. You are our good luck!

Anterior cruciate ligament surgery

In February of this year, I injured my anterior cruciate ligament on the soccer field. I was recommended to Burak Kaymaz for surgery. Although anterior cruciate ligament surgery is considered painful, thanks to the doctor's skill, I had almost no pain. This is one of the rare doctors who patiently answers all the questions of the patients.
