spinal surgery

My best decision was to choose this particular clinic

I have never met such a warm reception in any clinic, doctors, nurses, coordinators treated me with awe and understanding, provided medical care, examination at the highest level in a short timeframe. I am sincerely grateful to the staff at this clinic who were with me during such a difficult period and in addition to medical care gave me moral support.

It was here that I fulfilled my dream, here I had a complex operation on the spine, the result after the operation produced all my expectations. The clinic has a high level of professionalism of doctors, so I was calm and not nervous before the operation

Special thanks to Prof. Dr. Çağatay Öztürk and all the doctors who operated and examined me.

surgery

My daughter has undergone surgery, the treatment is ongoing, we have been here for 5 days now and we actually feel at home. I would like to express my great gratitude to our professor, Dr. Çağatay Öztürk, as well as his whole team and nurses (Yunus, Ferhat, Muhammet, Şeyma, Tuğba, Gül) for their care and support.

scoliosis

Today I took my 5-year-old daughter to Professor Cagatay Ozturk. He is a doctor who perfectly understands the psychology of patients, and most importantly, he listens very well. He reassured us, saying that we should just love our daughter, who was diagnosed with scoliosis. The doctor prescribed 4 months of physiotherapy, and to come to him for control. He is truly a wonderful doctor. He is a professor who practices medicine not for money and is honest about his profession.

intervertebral hernia

My mother suffered from a herniated intervertebral disc for 5 years, for the last month she could not feel her legs and could not sleep because of the pain. Dr. Ozturk diagnosed the hernia and recommended surgery, which he performed a week later. Today, mom can sleep and go to work, walk a lot, her pain is gone, and she says she feels like she was born again. Cagatay Ozturk is a high-class orthopedist-traumatologist, if you have problems in this area - contact him and you will not regret it. This is one of the best Turkish doctors.

spinal hernia

If someone has a hernia of the lumbar spine, I can recommend a doctor who works in Turkey, this is Dr. Cagatay Ozturk, who sees patients at the Liv Clinic. The clinic is very modern and technologically equipped; the operation was performed microsurgically. It took me a long time to recover, but overall the surgery went well, with no bad consequences. Dr. Ozturk is a very attentive doctor who gives 100% to his work. I am satisfied with the treatment, thank you very much.
