Cardiosurgery in Turkey

One of the best coordinators, my mom got sick and made terrible diagnoses. Dr. Konstantin organized everything clearly quickly and comfortably in a few days . For us, everything was organized to the smallest detail, starting with the daily transfer and ending with the delivery of medicines to the hotel, since we ourselves did not have time to go to the pharmacy. He was always available and we are very thankful to him for all these services!

Dr. Konstantin and Experts Medical have been a great help in the way to treat my father’s prostate cancer. They found me the best treatment option for my father which is doing SBRT (a type of advanced radiotherapy) using an MR-LINAC machine. I knew this new device is the best, but had difficulty finding the right hospital that had it, until Dr. Konstantin found the Acibadem Hospital in Istanbul and linked me with its staff. I highly appreciate his help as it was crucial for me to find the best device to treat my father. He has also shown great care regarding my father’s health and continuously followed up about his health status after the treatment. I wish him luck and strongly recommend his service to other patients.

Almost an year ago I got an incredible help from Dr. Natalia. The determining the diagnosis and looking for right treatment was scary experience for me but Dr. Natalia not only confidently organised the process but also supported me morally. I am so thankful to her for finding me a perfect surgeon Prof. Hakan Agir and scheduling the whole process. She always was ready to give me detailed response on all my questions. After surgery in June 2022 I went to Istanbul two more times for examinations in October 2022 and March 2023 and these both times Dr. Natalia was there to help me with communication with doctors and organising my visit to Turkey.
Thank you Natalia!

Hi! And good mood to everybody!
First of all, I’d like to express my deep gratitude to Experts Medical for their high attention and sincerity to patients. During my treatment my coordinator Natalia was in touch with me 24hours a day, to whom I am very grateful. She is a sensitive, attentive, and sympathetic person. Sometimes it seemed that she was more worried about me than I was about myself. This is an Angel who wants to help all suffering and depressed people.
Thank you very much for your warmth and care and all of your Experts Medical company for your work. You are great fellows! Health to all your team!

would like to express my gratitude and deepest respect to Experts Medical!!!!!! Natalya worked with us, and honestly, you rarely meet such sincere and responsive people in life, but we found them on the internet!
Our daughter (2 years old) needed a complex brain surgery. We could only trust the renowned doctor Memet Ozek in Istanbul. Natalia said that we would definitely get to see him! Everything was organized for us (consultation, flight, accommodation, transfer, Russian-speaking interpreter at the clinic, and thanks to Natalia’s help, the charity fund paid for the entire operation!!!) We didn’t worry about the organizational details at all. We only thought about our daughter. The operation was successful, and we are already returning home. We didn’t pay anything for the services, as many people are concerned about this issue. Trouble can knock on anyone’s door! The main thing is to know where to go for help — Experts Medical, you are the best!

Huge thanks to Dr. Salih for their amazing care during the birth of my baby! Feeling so grateful for their support and expertise.

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for Dr Salih care during the birth of my baby. Your expertise and support were invaluable, and I felt so safe and well-cared for under your guidance.
I am incredibly grateful for your patience, kindness, and the way you helped me through a challenging but ultimately joyful experience. Thanks to you, I have a healthy baby, and I’ll always cherish the memories of that special day.

Both my 9 year old daughter and myself had treatment here. It totally surpassed all our expectations! The doctors were so nice and helpful. Meysa, the translator who helped us all along the way, was AMAZING! We would highly recommend this hospital to anyone!

Overall Impression
Acıbadem Hospital is an excellent clinic with outstanding service, highly professional staff, and incredibly supportive translators. The local Georgian translators working at Acıbadem are wonderful, they were extremely attentive, kind, and helpful throughout my entire visit.

Positive Experience
From the moment I arrived, the local team made me feel well cared for. A special thanks goes to Tsira, the invited translator, who was truly exceptional. She helped me tremendously by organizing my appointments, resolving scheduling issues, and ensuring I could see many doctors on time. Without her dedication, I would not have been able to complete so many consultations efficiently.

I also want to sincerely thank Tamar Melashvili, Natia, and all the Georgian staff at Acıbadem. They went above and beyond in every aspect. These are remarkable professionals who are not only skilled but also deeply compassionate. Their kindness and dedication were the highlight of my experience.

Challenges Faced
Unfortunately, my initial arrangements through external providers in Georgia were very disappointing. Nothing was properly planned when I arrived, not even my appointments with doctors were scheduled. The local hospital staff themselves were surprised by the lack of preparation.

The DGS provider team did not assist me properly. They rarely gave clear answers, often failed to organize transfers or doctor visits, and never informed me in advance about preparations needed for tests. Because of this, what should have been a 2-3 day medical check-up turned into 4–5 days, disrupting my plans. Without the incredible help of the local Georgian staff at Acıbadem, my tests and consultations might have stretched to 10 days or more.

Recommendation
For anyone planning to come to Acıbadem for a check-up, I strongly recommend contacting the hospital directly and avoiding third-party providers. The official hospital team is professional, organized, and genuinely cares about patients.

Conclusion
Despite the challenges caused by external service providers, my overall experience at Acıbadem Hospital was excellent thanks to the local Georgian team. They are an invaluable asset to the hospital, and I am truly grateful for their support.

Everything about the place is nice, but the prices are very high. In the end, this is the healthcare sector, and it feels like if you don’t have money, you’re not meant to receive treatment.

I would like to sincerely thank you for your attention and concern during my visit to your hospital. Thanks to the help I have received, as well as the pleasant hospital staff and wonderful nurses, I feel much better now.

Acibadem Hospital is the highest category hospital I have ever seen. Orthopedic surgeons are real pros! The staff is very friendly. I am glad that I chose this hospital and was operated in it. Thanks again to everyone.

I want to thank from the bottom of my heart the doctors of the Department of Reproductive Medicine at Acibadem – they gave us the happiness of being parents. My husband and I are 34 years old, we have been married for 12 years, during this time it did not work out to conceive a child. This hospital was recommended to me, and I am very glad that I turned to them. Our son is already a year and a half! Thank you very much!

Everything is cool! The hospital exceeded all my expectations.

Thank you for your help and professional approach!

Thank you very much to Natalia and Memorial Clinic, and especially to Prof. Necmettin Akdeniz. Wonderful, responsive doctor dermatologist, who not only knows his business perfectly, but also helps people to save money without prescribing unnecessary unnecessary tests and procedures!!!!!. Now all medicine has turned into a business, pumping out money, but thanks to this wonderful doctor and coordinator Natalia, I realized that there are still good professionals in the world!!!!. To compare the diagnosis, I compared several doctors and hospitals. I will leave a very bad review from me personally here about Medipol clinic in Istanbul, this is a place where they just stupidly make false diagnoses and make money from you! Good health to all!

I’m very pleased with the choice of the clinic. I liked the doctors and the staff very much. Polite, competent and willing to help with any question!!

I liked everything. The prices are reasonable, the doctors are good, and they are all experts in their field. I wish you success in your affair. All private hospitals in Turkey today are for the same price.

The best private hospital in Turkey. Some medical manipulations are made by robots. The hospital is very large, it is possible to give birth in water. It’s really calm in the clinic.

As agreed we got to a good specialist, to a good clinic and at the moment we are undergoing treatment for a month. The clinic is good and the professor is good. Medipol offers a very cool hotel, the conditions are very good. Thank you for your service!

The best hospitals in Turkey, professional doctors and the latest technology. They literally saved my father! I express my deep gratitude to professor Dr. Alp Burak Katakoglu (cardiologist), Dr. Ozgur Kavdaroglu (surgeon), professor Dr. Hakan Teoman Yanar (surgeon), professor Dr. Meltem Topkaletstseli Selam (oncologist), you are wizards!

Prices are comparable to private Romanian hospitals, so for us, Live Hospital was the best choice!

I liked everything very much. Caring staff are excellent, special thanks to kind girls (translators)! Doctors are really specialists of the highest professional level. I am very glad that I got to Live.

I was examined and diagnosed with that bladder cancer located on the front wall. Using an artificial bladder transplant, I had a successful operation that allowed me to return to normal life. Infinitely grateful to professor Tahir Karadeniz and hospital staff.

After visiting Live Hospital, we only have good impressions. Dr. Selemi Suzubish – above all praise, he was very polite, correct, patient, answered all our questions in detail and explained. We are also very pleased with the work of the coordinator and translators. It should be noted that the examination procedure performed by means of the cool tomograph was very difficult and hard for the child. We did not pass it in one step, the second part was carried out the next day.

We are grateful for the assistance provided by the Live Hospital, in the future we will recommend this Hospital to all our friends and acquaintances. Everything was at the highest level!!! The cardiologist Dr. Burak is a real doctor! Words of gratitude cannot express this; he is a professional in his field! Thanks also to the patient care team.

Our experience in Anadolu hospital is great. We are extremely satisfied  with the excellent service  we received from the hospital staff, starting from the nurses to the surgeons. Coordinators Nana and Marta were very helpful in every step, the translators Sophi and Natia did their best to comfort us.

And finally we are so grateful of the main surgeon, Dr. Mehmet Caglar Berk, who showed the high proffecialism, did outstanding job, and saved my husbands life.

Thank you!

I would like to thank Maria Rybalova for helping me find a good specialist! In a difficult situation your help is invaluable! Thank you for your professionalism, attention, efficiency and kindness.

I want to thank Experts Medical from the bottom of my heart for organizing and supporting my treatment in Turkey. I went to Turkey for childbirth. Thanks to Natalia from Experts Medical, I was selected the best doctor and clinic for all my requirements. accompaniment before childbirth, childbirth itself and the postpartum period, I felt confident, because Natalia was in touch with me 24/7, she controlled many issues herself, helped in emergency situations and responded to any request. Being in a foreign country without knowing the language is very important to have someone you can count on in any situation. From now on, I will organize treatment abroad only with Experts Medical.

I would like to express my gratitude to Tatiana and the whole Experts Medical team for organizing our treatment and examination in Istanbul. Highly professional people, everything is very organized, clear, fast!!!
Thank you very much to the whole team, special thanks to Tatiana!
Best of luck to you!!!

I would like to thank the Turkish clinic ANADOLU and all the staff for such a warm and professional reception, and I thank all the related organizations!

Brain injury This hospital is outstanding. In my humble opinion, it meets the highest level of medical standards. The staff is very competent, caring, friendly, and supportive. The conditions are very good. The place is remarkable – it is right in front of the Sea of ​​Marmara, with a very beautiful park. But do not use their hotel. It is called Titanic, a very bad association.

The hospital is very clean. Doctors are very courteous and professional. Thank you very much for the help in the treatment.

I can say that this is one of the best hospitals in the region. But it is important to remember that for the treatment of the disease the main thing is a good specialist who has at his disposal modern equipment. You will find this at the Anadolu clinic. The staff is kind and courteous.

Good afternoon! My name is Oksana, I’ve been dreaming of having rhinoplasty for many years, but I was hesitant because I didn’t know which doctor I could trust, but recently I came across an advertisement on the Internet. And so two weeks ago I did what I had been dreaming of for half my life. I want to thank Dr. Celal Alioglu at Medicana clinic, everything went at the highest level with no pain and fast rehabilitation. Now it’s two weeks after the surgery and I feel great. I would like to note the good attitude of the medical staff and the entire team that accompanied me, I would also like to thank my coordinator Marta who was with me 27/7 and supported me.

I liked everything very much. Doctors are very competent. Staying in the ward creates a good mood. The chamber is modern, equipped with everything necessary. The medical staff also behaves very professionally.

One of the best international cancer hospitals.

I want to thank Dr. Natalia for excellent professionalism and excellent work, as well as for humanity and care! A very pleasant consultant who is with the patient 24/7, consults and advises on all issues, supports before and after surgery. Dr. Celal Alioğlu at Medicana Clinic made my dream a reality. Everything went smoothly without pain. Quick rehabilitation. And, accordingly, an excellent result. I am very satisfied. I definitely recommend Experts Medical and Natalia!!!

I just can’t believe that I decided to have all three surgeries☺️Very chic clinic with excellent staff. Dr. Celal has a golden hands! Special thanks to Selby and Natasha who were in touch with me 24 hours a day❤️Your support is limitless! I wish you prosperity and more grateful clients!

Hello, I not only want, but also do not have the moral right not to leave my review about Natasha, the coordinator doctor. I needed to do a Smas lifting. This is one of the serious plastic surgeries and a good result depends on the good qualifications of the doctor. There are many surgeons in Turkey who deal with plastic surgery, when I corresponded with consultants, I felt only the monetary calculation and the speed of arrival. Once again browsing the sites, I am our Expert Medical, and I started communicating with Natasha. The more we talked, the more I realized that she was competent in all matters and had deep knowledge. She is a kind, wonderful, positive person. When choosing a doctor, she sent me the characteristics of many of the best doctors and the cost with all kinds of discounts. And I was glad to inform me that one of the best plastic surgeons, Dr. Emre, did a charity event to pay for it. During my stay at the clinic, I had many questions and Natasha solved them instantly, regardless of her free time from work, she was in touch even at 5 am and late in the evening. You don’t often see such an approach to work, such concern for people! I really want to thank your parents for raising such a wonderful Person. And to you, Natasha, from the bottom of my heart I wish you success in all your endeavors, health and prosperity to you and your family for many years to come!

I was delighted to work with Natalia! She was in touch with me from the first to the last moment. Natalia promptly answered all my questions and gave me complete information about different methods of treatment. She picked the best prices for me from qualified doctors. Natalia is always ready for dialogue, and her work exceeds all expectations. I definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for help choosing doctors in Istanbul! I felt very comfortable while interacting with her. Although I did not know her personally and communicated with her by messages and sometimes by phone, it seemed to me that we were old friends. Natalia is very charming and professional in her field.

They have many good doctors in many specialties. Services compared to other private medical clinics in Istanbul are much better.

I addressed to the Medicana hospital. The translator met me, so there are no language barriers. The first time I signed up for a consultation with a gynecologist-reproductologist Selman Lacinu. He wins someone’s favour immediately. He is very neat in inspection. He offers a variety of treatment options based on your wishes and material capabilities. Very competent doctor! After consultation with him, I immediately decided on IVF. We arrived with my spouse on the next day. The professor himself conducts the whole cycle. All staff is very attentive, sensitive, and friendly. I was very pleased and recommend this hospital to everyone!!!

The level and quality of medicine are high. The wards are very comfortable and cozy. In the clinic, the child felt comfortable: the interior was made in the style of a game room with slot machines and colorful chairs. The doctor’s competence is at the height, even more. Attitude towards the patient is very good, the staff is responsive. We are very satisfied!

Hello, this is the first time I have been examined at this clinic. I want to say that the ophthalmologist explained everything in a very friendly and intelligible way. He really knows his job. After examination, I received a recommendation from the doctor. I would like to come back next year again.

Let someone say that heart valve replacement is already an ordinary operation.
But knowing the cases when it ended with serious complications, I decided to play it safe and chose a clinic with an excellent reputation – Yeditepe University Hospital. The hospital itself is located on a pretty territory, with a small garden. This, of course, is my subjective opinion, but according to the quality of the operation and the care of hospital staf, I really appreciated the staff working there.

Hip replacement is a very difficult operation, specially when you are 55 years old. However, my daughter said that I had nothing to fear at Yeditepe Hospital. She accopmanied my in this hospital. It was pleasantly surprised that we were met there and taken directly to the hospital. We were even assigned an escort, or rather a coordinator. After taking all the necessary pictures and passing the necessary tests, I underwent the operation. But I cannot say that rehabilitation was as difficult as I expected. After all, literally after 2 weeks I was able to move around calmly. My daughter was very happy that I recovered so fast. And what?! You also need to play with your grandchildren!

I underwent a complex surgery of spinal cord tumor remuval at Yeditepe University Hospital last November. I just want to leave a review about this place. Firstly, if you are looking for highly qualified personnel and the latest equipment, this is the place for you! I was satisfied with absolutely everything. And the operation, and how I was looked after. How they treated me. Everything was excellent. I just know that from now on, I will only come to this clinic for diagnostics.

We were looking for a doctor because of my mother’s sudden onset seizures. After long examinations, we decided to turn to Professor Ugur Thyre. The doctor operated on my mother, a meningioma was diagnosed in the left temporal lobe. Endless thanks to Professor Thure, his team, as well as Drs. Kaan Bey, Bihter Khanym and all the medical staff, and especially Dilara, Selma, Ban, Sedat, Baris and Mehmet.

I found out about my diagnosis, which could lead to infertility, unexpectedly. Doctors did not give great hopes, but I so wanted to be a mother in the future. I heard from my friend about the Istanbul Marmara clinic and decided to send my extracts and conclusions. What was my surprise, when in the online consultation the doctor told me about the chance to recover and invited me for examination and treatment. Of course, the course of therapy took time, but I was pleased with the results, because a few years later, without any difficulty, I became a mommy. Thank you very much to the clinic’s specialists.

I want to thank surgeon Mustafa Yuksel, specialists of the oncology department, as well as all the nurses, for all that they have done for me. The high-level operation allowed me to get rid of the oncological diagnosis and undergo a quick rehabilitation course. I am glad that I left my choice at the Marmara University Hospital and didn’t disappoint in it.

I had a pancreas operation in 2018. Great thanks to my dear doctors from the General Surgery Service and his team. I am healthy now, thanks to yours dedicated work.

Good afternoon, I had surgery on January 25th with Dr. Ercan. The doctor gave me super beautiful breasts and liposuction of my legs and inner arm. The surgery went well, post-operative care was super, Memorial Clinic is very clean, friendly and attentive staff. I got to the doctor thanks to the professional consultant Natalia, she recommended me the doctor, consulted me before and after the operation and now when I have already returned home – full support in any questions. I would like to say separately that the organization of my stay from arrival and departure was at the highest level, everything was on time, clear and professional. Big thanks to Natalia, Dr. Ercan and the whole team.

Hello, 9 days ago I had breast augmentation surgery by Dr. Ercan Karacaoglu. To say that the rehabilitation is easy is to say nothing, I am immensely glad that Natalya from Experts Medical made a recommendation to go to him. She called me, explained everything, gave recommendations what facts are important when choosing a doctor, like for herself ❤ Every time I had questions in the middle of the night, Natalia explained everything and instilled confidence that everything would be fine. The decision was made extremely quickly, literally in a week, and I was very lucky that doctor had a free day for the operation. Of course, it’s too early to judge the final result, but I already like what I see. Separately, I would like to thank the medical staff for their attention and care, they came into the ward every hour and a half, checked the temperature, pressure, gave the necessary medicines.
Thank you for such an attitude and result, I can definitely recommend Experts Medical for choosing a doctor and clinic. I was convinced for myself that they recommend only trusted doctors with tremendous experience.

We have extensive experience and many memories with this hospital. This time, I’ll start from the end.
Our doctor, Prof. Dr. Çetin Ordu, transferred here, and we also began our treatment, check-ups, and examinations at this clinic. Dr. Çetin is a skilled and knowledgeable oncologist. He cares about the well-being of his patients, has excellent communication skills, is compassionate, and an expert in his field. His assistant, Ms. Merve, also helps patients and their families with care and courtesy. In an illness where moral support is especially needed, Çetin bey is the right person 🙏🏻

We also thank the nurses and the team on the 3rd floor for their support during the recent hospitalization.
The head oncology nurse, Ms. Meltem, the floor supervisor nurse, Ms. Kübra, and team members İrem, Murat, Gizem, Ahmet, Derya, Berfin, and Sevde — thank you.

In addition, our ophthalmologists Diğdem Beğendi, and in the eye department — Rabia and Hilal;
the radiology team leaders,
patient coordinator Rukiye, oncology team member Ahmet bey, and our doctors for my mother and me — Cem İyibozkurt — all made a significant difference. Thank you for your dedication.

There is a very experienced team here. The doctors in the pediatric department are especially wonderful — my son received treatment here, and we were very satisfied. They know perfectly how to approach a child. Special thanks to our doctor, Günay Hodjam.

A high-class hospital with polite and highly qualified staff. I would like to express my great gratitude to doctors Kürşat Rahmi Serin and Kemal Ayalp! Wishing you health and professional growth.
I also want to thank manager Fuad Agazade, who organized our comfortable stay at Florence Nightingale Clinic.
Additionally, special thanks to the interpreter Aliya Harnaieva, a very responsible and attentive person. She was constantly present during medical procedures and translated medical terms into an understandable language. Thank you, Florence Nightingale Clinic!

I treated prostate adenoma here. The operation was successful without any complications. Thanks to the medical staff for their work and professionalism.

We were examined in this clinic. The staff is professional, the hospital itself is very pleasant, there is no oppressive atmosphere. Very happy with the visit.

My sister was treated at this clinic. A little expensive for us, but we managed it, thank God! Now, thanks to professional doctors, she is on the mend. Thank you and all the best!

I have a congenital heart defect, a disease that has recently worsened my general condition. A friend who has already been treated in Turkey advised me to visit the Florence Nightingel clinic. At the stage of diagnostics, I was consulted by a cardiologist and a cardiac surgeon. I underwent 24-hour ECG monitoring, ultrasound of the heart, heart scintigraphy and general tests. Based on the results of the examination, the doctors advised to perform mitral valve replacement. I tolerated the operation well, now I feel great. I returned home and enjoy an active life.
