herniated disc

Dr. Cetin is a master of his craft! I had a complex herniated disc, the pain was unbearable. After the surgery I was back to normal life in a month. He explained everything down to the last detail, supported me both before and after. Thank you very much for your professionalism!

scoliosis

My treatment experience with Dr. Engin Çetin was a real lifesaver for me. Scoliosis was not only physically painful, but also a huge moral strain - I always felt limited in movement and aesthetically insecure. At my first consultation, Dr. Cetin studied my scans in detail, explained the nature of the deformity and proposed a surgical plan.

The spinal stabilization surgery was complex, but Dr. Çetin used state-of-the-art techniques, including minimally invasive technology. After the procedure, he paid great attention to the recovery period: he regularly checked on my condition, adjusted rehabilitation and was always on call to answer my questions.

After 5 months, the curvature was significantly less and the pain was completely gone. In addition, my overall health and appearance have improved. I am truly grateful to Dr. Chetin for his professionalism, attention to detail and sincere desire to help his patients return to a full life!

spinal stenosis

The surgery went well and the pain is gone, for which I am very grateful to Dr. Cetin. The only point is that the rehabilitation process was a bit more complicated than I expected and I would have liked more advice on recovery. But overall, the result was worth all the effort. Thank you for your help!

scoliosis

My treatment with Dr. Engin Çetin was an important step towards recovery. At the time of my treatment, I had severe scoliosis, which impaired my quality of life and brought constant discomfort. After a detailed examination and consultation, Dr. Cetin suggested stabilizing surgery using state-of-the-art fixation equipment.

Dr. Çetin not only performed the surgery brilliantly, but also provided me with close supervision during all stages of rehabilitation.

Today I can enjoy a full life without pain. A huge thank you to Dr. Çetin!

canal narrowing

Honestly, I was hesitant to have the surgery for a long time, but Dr. Çetin gave me confidence. The narrowing of the canal was causing a lot of discomfort, and now I have even forgotten that I had such problems. I am very glad I went to him!
