Organ transplantation abroad

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!

A wonderful experience at Acıbadem International Hastanesi. The staff were very responsive, professional, and well-coordinated throughout my treatment. The food offered was also very tasty. Special thanks to Madlen Sahnazoglu, Mehmet, and nurse Ferda for their care, support, and kindness. They made me feel comfortable and well looked after. I definitely recommend this hospital to friends and family.

They took excellent care of me from start to finish. Starting with the translator Yusuf, who helped me with all the paperwork, and ending with the nurse — especially Meltem, who was incredibly caring and always took the time to explain everything clearly. My doctor, Caglar, is very experienced and truly compassionate.

The night I spent in the hospital was very comfortable, the nurses were attentive and supported me the whole time. I am now waiting for good news, but so far everything is going very well. I definitely recommend this hospital — both for their expertise and for their warm, welcoming approach.

Everything was good — an individually tailored protocol for my case. Well organized, and they are very attentive to everything they do. Satisfied with the service. Round-trip transfer is included. They also pick you up and drop you off at the airport. A private room in the hospital with a private bathroom. Well cleaned, I was able to recover. Much better than Swedish IVF!!

At this group’s branch in Fulya I had surgery in 2022 and was very satisfied; my aunt had major surgery the same year in Maslak, I was her companion and observed everything closely. But I cannot say the same about Yeşilköy: besides a serious hygiene problem, we were surprised by the shortage of staff on the floor and the shortage of supplies. We paid half a million for 2 nights — of course, for our health, but I don’t want to list one by one everything the cleaning worker did wrong. In the post-discharge SMS survey I noted my complaints, and within 2 hours they called and apologized, but the second surgery we plan with my doctor in 2 months I will never do at Acibadem Yeşilköy International. I will recommend it to no one — as a doctor’s daughter and a person who pays attention to details, I will say: all of this is far from pleasant, and as for “class A” — that’s an outright disaster. I cannot fail to mention this separately. The 4th floor nurse Perihan is a person who does her job properly. To the orderlies — Besime hanım and Suzan hanım — thanks again: during their shifts they work alone with all their heart on the entire floor. To those who ask me about my changes and want advice, I will of course recommend my doctor, but the hospital — never. What does it mean when a kitchen worker entering the room of a patient sleeping after surgery has their phone ring? After waking the patient, they apologize. Twice we saw the floor being wiped and then the same cloth used to wipe the countertop. Your hospital is very far from “hygiene,” decorating the entrance with a New Year’s tree is not enough….

I had a great experience at Acibadem Hospital. On my way to Istanbul I got very sick — severe congestion. I needed to see a doctor to figure out how to proceed and whether I could even fly. Doctor Aras Senvar was magnificent. He listened to my complaints and then used his more than 50 years of experience to guide me. After the examination he laid out in detail which medications he was prescribing and why he believed they would help. My translator was a young man named Uruk. He was also excellent. When answers to some questions were needed, he found the right ones. Several administrative issues arose because I was admitted the same day I sought help, and he helped resolve them all. And finally, a girl named Elanara — she was the first to take my call and found a way to book me into the ENT department, whose schedule was already full. I called at 8 a.m. and by noon I was already being seen — all thanks to her wonderful attitude and “everything is possible” approach. If she had simply said the schedule was full, I would not have been seen at all. Thank you to all these people. Although I hope I won’t have such illnesses and need urgent care again, IF it does happen — my first call will be to Acibadem International Hospital.

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.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the entire medical team at Acibadem International Hospital for their exceptional care and professionalism.

I arrived at the hospital with a sudden medical problem shortly before my return flight. From the very beginning I felt safe and well cared for. The doctors and nurses acted quickly, clearly explained every step, and performed all the necessary examinations so that I could fly safely.

I especially want to thank the patient concierge who was with me the whole time. He helped me at every stage of the process, arranged examinations without delays, contacted the hotel, and made sure everything went as quickly and comfortably as possible. His support significantly eased a very stressful situation. I am truly grateful for his kindness, patience, and professionalism.

Thanks to the care of the whole team, I was able to return home safely and with peace of mind. I highly recommend this hospital and deeply appreciate the work and dedication of everyone involved.

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!

This is a great hospital, the doctors and staff are very good, and the conditions are above average. My daughter was born here, and the service and support were five-star. However, please be aware that prices for foreigners are extremely high — to the point that they feel exorbitant. For a simple spirometry they quoted me 22,000 Turkish lira (over $500). When I objected, they immediately lowered the price to 15,000 Turkish lira (which demonstrated that the original price really was a rip-off), but even that is still too much. I went to another hospital and paid 1,000 Turkish lira. So, if you are a foreigner, I recommend going elsewhere. And always confirm the prices for examinations before the consultation.

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.

So far I have had a wonderful experience staying at this hospital.

One of the biggest conveniences was the free transfer they arranged: they not only drove us from the airport to the hotel and back, but also provided free transfer to all the doctor’s appointments. This support significantly eased the whole process and made it less stressful.

Special thanks to Danna, who was incredibly responsive and kind throughout the entire time. She handled the organization of all our appointments and was always available to guide us through each step. Her communication and dedication to her work truly stood out and meant a lot to us.

Although we have not yet finished the procedure and will continue with follow-up appointments and treatment, the experience so far has been very positive. We feel confident and at peace, knowing we are in reliable hands.

Thanks again to the whole team for making this journey smooth and treating us with such care and respect.

A few days ago I had rhinoplasty at this hospital. Even though the prices are quite high, I was very satisfied with the service. The nurses took very good care of me. They were sweet and friendly. The only negative point, besides the prices, is that the staff barely speak English, so it can be difficult without a translator.

The doctors at this hospital are very good, very polite people who know their job, respect their work, amazing people. However, the hospital itself is run in the spirit of a cunning Istanbul taxi driver or with a racist approach from management: they count the bill. They write 100 for a Turkish citizen, 250 for a foreigner… If you have money — go, let them fleece you.

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!

This is a luxurious private hospital. Private rooms are allowed one companion. For simple operations it is worth coming here. However, in the urology department I do not recommend Professor Bülent Alagöl. As a doctor he has poor communication with the patient, as well as incorrect diagnoses and treatment.

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 wish you all good health!

As a foreigner from the USA, I can say that at this hospital I was received and cared for at the highest level. I fell and broke my elbow. Upon arrival at the hospital, I was immediately assigned a translator who accompanied me through every stage: orthopedic consultation, X-ray, CT, follow-up consultation and casting.

I received medical care of the same level as in the USA, but without the bureaucracy. In the emergency department the entire process took only three hours, and the total cost was 1638 US dollars. I was given a copy of the CT results, and a few days later the translator sent an official written report.

Almost two weeks later, my translator arranged a follow-up visit, and the hospital even paid for my return transport. Honestly, even in the USA I have never experienced such attentive treatment and such high-quality support after an emergency. Thank you to Abdulhamid — my wonderful translator, who also works in the oncology department. I was very lucky to be under his care and guidance.

Today I had a very good experience undergoing a comprehensive medical examination. My translator Ede, as well as all the doctors, nurses and technical specialists who helped me, were simply wonderful.

I especially appreciate how friendly the staff were while strictly observing medical standards. For example, when I thought a stress test was unnecessary, it was explained to me that it had to be performed not because it was part of the package, but because the professional approach to my health required it.

When some lab values turned out to be outside the normal range, I was able to discuss the results in detail with specialists who gave me practical recommendations. It was wonderful!

My only remark is that the names of the examination packages are too similar to each other, so it is easy to get confused about which services belong to which package. But this is easy to fix and it absolutely does not overshadow the high level of medical care that I received.

After a 35-day medical journey at Memorial Hospital Istanbul during the holy month of Ramadan, we are leaving with hearts full of gratitude. This hospital truly became a second family to us.

Our stay was dedicated to my father’s rehabilitation after a stroke, mainly to restoring his ability to walk.

First of all, I want to thank the people who made everything possible: the administrative coordinator Mr. Khalid and the hospital manager Mr. Kaan (Kenan) for their outstanding support and professionalism.

I also express my deep gratitude to all the physical therapy specialists for their enormous contribution to my father’s recovery, as well as to all the doctors and nurses under the guidance of Ms. Ilaf for their exceptional care.

Thank you to all the technical and administrative staff — in this difficult time you became our main support.

My husband had surgery at the clinic with Professor Murat Binbay. The operation was performed by the professor using the Da Vinci Single Port robot.

We were discharged from the clinic two days after the operation. Rehabilitation went very easily. Already on the second day after discharge my husband walked 7000 steps, and on the third day — 10000 steps.

Thanks to the professor and the Da Vinci Single Port robot, everything went practically painlessly. May Allah grant health and prosperity to Professor Murat Binbay and the Memorial clinic.

I accompanied my mother during the operation. The care at the hospital and the organization of the surgical process were among the best I have ever seen. They can serve as an example for the whole world.

Special thanks to the neurosurgeons: Professor Kaynar, Professor Hanymoglu, Professor Serkan Kitis, the nurses and the medical staff of Memorial Şişli Hospital, building B, 3rd floor.

Huge thanks to our coordinators Arbnor, as well as to the translators Aysun and Neyra, thanks to whom we felt at home.

I wholeheartedly recommend this hospital.

During treatment in the IVF department with Professor Semra and Associate Professor Vuslat, we personally witnessed how professional, disciplined and result-oriented they are in their field.

They conduct the entire process very carefully, using a scientific approach. Thanks to their kindness, attentive attitude and professionalism, these doctors inspire trust and achieve high results.

We were very satisfied. 🌸

I want to express my huge gratitude to Dr. Sechkin, his assistant, as well as to the mammography and ultrasound diagnostics staff.

Everyone was very attentive and friendly. It has been a long time since I received such a level of service at a hospital.

The only problem is the parking and its cost. When you already pay quite serious sums for medical services, the need to additionally pay for parking seems to me not entirely logical.

My dear doctor Safak Olgan, my wonderful nurses Saadet, Deniz and Mufide, my dear embryologist Merih, as well as Bercem, Melisa, Derya and Gulhan, who greeted me with a smile every time — I love you all very much.

This was real teamwork. Along with everything else, motivation played a huge role, and this team gave it to us in abundance.

My dear doctor has a special place in my heart, but each of you is also very important to us. If we were able to meet our daughter, then each of you contributed to it.

We love you ♥️

At this hospital, my husband’s sister was treated in the oncology department, and we visited her every day for several months.

Pros:

A new beautiful hospital with good equipment. However, it has no CT scanner of its own — patients are taken by ambulance to another hospital by arrangement.

Good wards: TV, amenities, almost like a hotel. There is a kettle, a fridge, tea and coffee are provided. You can choose a dinner option. The ward has a sofa for a companion, visits are practically unrestricted.

Strong oncologists and an excellent department dealing with punctures and removal of fluid from the abdominal cavity.

Cons:

The oncology department is overcrowded. Even with a ticket for 15:00, you can only get an appointment at 17:00. This happened regularly in recent months. It is very hard for seriously ill people to wait so long. I also noticed that patients with translators often go out of turn.

During the last week and a half of inpatient treatment on the second floor, the nurses many times could not get into the patient’s vein. In addition, we were told that blood could not be obtained, although it later turned out that the hospital had not even submitted a request.

In our case, stronger pain relief was needed, but we did not get it. On holidays there were also no specialists able to service the abdominal drainage.

If there is an opportunity to choose a ward not on the second floor, I highly recommend doing so. That is exactly where we encountered serious disorder.

Health to everyone 😊

And I wish the hospital to put the work of the nurses and the ticket system in order.

For pricing information: an oncologist consultation for Turkish citizens is 2500 lira, the procedure for removing fluid from the abdominal cavity is 15000 lira, hospitalization is about 2500 lira per day.

The hospital has a lot of foreign patients, and due to the constant use of Google Translate the service time increases approximately fivefold.

The best hospital in Antalya for both children and adults. I have a condition that was ignored for years in other hospitals — both in Turkey and abroad. Here it was finally diagnosed and they are doing everything possible to help me control the disease and restore my health.

Yes, the prices are a little high, but that is exactly why it is a private hospital. I prefer to pay a little more than to face rude treatment and lack of attention in public hospitals.

There is only one remark: the cashier in the cafeteria (the woman who usually sits on the right) is very rude.

My respected Professor Ahmet Turan Aydin from the orthopedic department of Memorial Antalya Hospital performed surgery on my right knee, which was in a very problematic condition.

The operation was extremely complex, since it should have been done at least ten years earlier. Nevertheless, my professor and his team successfully carried out the intervention and achieved a positive result.

With respect, I thank them. Huge thanks to Professor Ahmet Turan Aydin, to whom you can safely entrust your treatment in the field of orthopedics.

I was very satisfied with Professor Koray. However, the prices are really very high, additional medical insurance is not accepted, and the meal menu was composed very unprofessionally.

I asked whether you have a dietitian, and I was told that you do. But how can a dietitian work at such a hospital, composing a menu so that in one meal rice pilaf and a milk rice dessert are served at the same time?

That said, the hospital was clean.

Last week I had a hip replacement at Memorial. We were very impressed by the hospital: starting from the valet parking service, the friendly and professional staff, and ending with the cleanliness and modern equipment.

The translator was named Kubra, and for her there were no unsolvable tasks. The operating doctor was Murat Baloglu. Both provided excellent service.

I would recommend this hospital and its wonderful staff to everyone.

The hospital is more than wonderful, advised many friends. We are currently continuing treatment in the hospital, we are undergoing chemotherapy. Thank you dr. Adnan and dr. Serkana.

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.

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.

I had a very positive experience at this hospital in Istanbul. Everything was organized smoothly from start to finish, the hospital is clean, professional and well organized. The staff are friendly and patient, and the presence of many interpreters made communication much easier.

Special thanks to Dr. Murat Koc for his excellent help in the field of gynecology.

Also many thanks to Mr. Amin from the international relations department for his help and support, as well as for arranging free transfer from the airport to the hospital and back.

I highly recommend this hospital.

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Nezih Meydan and the entire team of interpreters. Dr. Meydan was very professional, competent and caring, which made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process.

Director Aminulla Dovran demonstrated a high level of organization and professionalism, ensuring the smooth running of all stages. The interpreter Cevahire was kind, patient and translated very accurately, which made communication easy and stress-free.

I highly recommend Dr. Nezih Meydan and his entire team. Thank you for your outstanding service!

For someone who does not speak Turkish, it is extremely important to have someone nearby who can clearly explain and convey important information. Hamdi Karim did much more than could be expected. I truly felt that he was my voice, especially after a previous difficult experience.

His clarity of explanation, patience and understanding played a huge role. I sincerely believe that quality communication is the foundation of good patient care, and Hamdi demonstrated this in the best possible way.

Once again, thank you to Hamdi and the international department team for organizing my treatment and for making this experience much easier.

I recently underwent a full medical check-up at this clinic and was very impressed with the whole process. I especially want to mention my interpreter Rana, who accompanied me the whole time. She was very helpful and perfectly conveyed all my questions and concerns to the doctors.

She was also by my side the next day when I had a minor procedure. Her presence helped me feel very comfortable, and I am sincerely grateful to her for her support.

I am also very grateful to Dr. Yesevi, who helped resolve my issues quickly. He is very competent and truly cares about his patients.

I highly recommend this hospital to all foreigners who want to undergo a medical examination in Turkey.

I visited Medicana hospital in Beylikduzu, and overall it is a very good hospital — large, well organized and professional.

Professor Yener, a hematologist, is truly an excellent specialist. He is very competent and carefully monitors the patient’s condition step by step.

The hospital also has an excellent team of interpreters.

Especially Rama, the interpreter. She does not just translate — she helps, advises and greatly facilitates all procedures within the hospital. She also coordinates doctor’s appointments and other matters, so the whole process goes very smoothly. Honestly, most of my communication with the hospital went through her, and she provided enormous support.

The only downside is the very high prices. Without insurance, it is almost impossible to cover the costs. My advice is to take the necessary tests outside the hospital and have your follow-up at Medicana, since both the medical staff and the interpreter team here are excellent.

I came for a medical check-up at Medicana International Hospital, and Ms. Merry helped me with the translation. In just a few hours I completed all the examinations and saw the doctors.

I am very grateful to Ms. Merry for her help and for getting everything organized in such a short time. She is very friendly to patients.

I would like to come here again for my next check-up precisely because of such attentive interpreters as Ms. Merry.

Best regards, Favad Noorzai

The prices are unjustifiably high, and there is no explanation for such a significant difference given the quality of service.

In the emergency department I was treated with indifference, without due attention to urgent cases, and the service was noticeably slow despite the urgency of the situation.

In the outpatient clinic, the doctor shouted at me and asked me to leave the office just because I repeated the description of my condition.

Based on my negative experience with this hospital, I do not recommend visiting it.

The prices are simply exorbitant. I am not a citizen of Turkey and do not have insurance, but it is still unclear how the cost of services can be inflated many times over.

For example, removing just one mole costs 600 dollars, whereas the average price in Europe is less than 100 dollars.

The only thing I liked was the interpreter. He was truly professional, competent and sincerely tried to help.

As a foreigner with insurance and a residence permit in Turkey, I was deeply disappointed by my recent experience with Medicana. Despite receiving a reminder four hours before the appointment, upon arrival it turned out that I could not use my insurance at this hospital because I am not a Turkish citizen.

I was not informed in advance that my insurance is not accepted at this hospital.

In addition, I was concerned by the presence of people smoking right in front of the hospital, despite clear ‘No smoking’ signs. It is sad to see such disregard for basic health and safety standards, especially in a medical facility.

I was here as an outpatient. The appointment was made online. Very helpful interpreters. Responsive reception. Clean hospital.

The examination by the doctor went well. For the blood test and CT scan in the radiology department I had to wait 45 minutes.

The live piano music was very pleasant, soothing and created a nice atmosphere. The waiting areas are good and clean. The staff are friendly.

It is very difficult to find a parking spot. Prices are high.

The day before the holidays my father was undergoing chemotherapy. There are certain medications that are absolutely necessary for the patient to combat the side effects of treatment.

The prescription for the medications was given to him only after the chemotherapy, with practically no information or warning about how difficult it would be to obtain these medications during the holidays.

When we finally managed to find the medications, we were asked to provide a medical report from the doctor in order to use insurance and pay 150 lira instead of 5000 lira. However, the entire department turned out to be closed, and it was impossible to obtain this document for 10 days.

First of all, it is extremely unprofessional to completely close the oncology department for 10 days, especially for an international hospital. Patients undergoing chemotherapy need support that cannot be obtained in the emergency department.

I understand and respect people’s desire to spend the holidays together with the whole country, however a vital medical unit should have staff on duty at least to provide the basic care needed to prevent multi-day suffering of the patient.

If even this is too difficult to organize, then there should at least be clear communication and a warning before completely stopping the issuance of necessary documents and medications.

I am sure that not only we have faced such a situation this year and in previous years.

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!

One of the best international cancer hospitals.

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.

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

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.

One of the best children’s medical centers in Israel. Thanks to the doctors and all the medical staff for their excellent work and professionalism.

Excellent children’s hospital. The staff is kind and of high status

Undoubtedly the best hospital for children in the country.
Unfortunately, we had some experience with other hospitals and I cannot even compare.
Everything is made especially for children (that is, low toilets, lots of flowers everywhere, children’s books …).
The staff is amazing, very attentive, caring and compassionate.

The best hospital in Israel for children.
Warm and loving relationship, high quality nursing services, and the best doctors in the country

Amazing hospital. Most of the staff are friendly and hard working. A place where you can help your child get the help they need to become healthier.

A huge thank you to the wonderful team at the Isotope Department at Ichilov, who do a holy job with patients like me from all corners of the country and provide them with the most attentive and professional examinations and treatments one could wish for, especially for the life-saving PT CT examinations! Thank you, Prof. Roni Gamzu, for always following up and inquiring how patients are feeling, it is not at all a matter of course. You are a man of high soul, may you be blessed for life!

Excellent service and attitude, highly recommended.

Dr. Metzger Yoav and Dr. Holzer Eitan are wonderful, attentive and highly professional doctors, there are no words to describe.
Sincerely, Suzan Vered Mizrahi

To all the staff of the Radiotherapy Department at Ikhilov Hospital: from the reception staff, technicians to Dr. Yasmin, thank you so much for your care, understanding and attention. You are saving lives. Best of luck to you in your work. Love you, Shimshon Yehezkel

A top notch hospital and with excellent standards – hopefully you won’t need…. But we received excellent treatment, many thanks to the angels who work at Suraski.

My daughter had brain surgery with Prof. Dr. Constantini and Dr. Lior Gonen. Doctors from God. After the surgery we went to the intensive care unit for children, there are no words to describe – just “angels in white”. There are no words to describe the care, attention and dedication. Thank you.

My name is Anastasia, I am from the Republic of Moldova.
Four years ago I was diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. My treatment was at Ichilov-Suraski Clinic, and in 2019 I had a bone marrow transplant. I am glad we decided to be treated at Ichilov specifically. I was in the best place, with the best doctors, wonderful people, with a truly family-like attitude. It is a place where you are not left alone with your problem. My doctor and the whole team of the international department take care of me until today, even though I am not in Israel anymore.

I want to tell you my story of acquaintance with the hospital Ichilov (Sourasky).

In Russia, I was given a disappointing diagnosis: kidney cancer and the only method of treatment in my city is abdominal surgery with kidney removal (nephrectomy). I had no symptoms of the disease, blood and urine tests were normal, and a tumor with a diameter of 4 cm was discovered by chance on an ultrasound.

I am 44 years old and I refused to believe that I, having a leading healthy lifestyle, can have such a terrible disease. I decided to undergo a diagnosis and, if necessary, treatment in Israel. I sent inquiries to different clinics on the Internet and a few employees from various departments of international medical tourism called me. I chose the Ichilov Hospital (Sourasky) and I will explain why.

My grown-up son accompanied me on a trip. We were assigned with an employee who accompanied us everywhere, sat with us in the queue, got us into the doctor’s office for a consultation. The organization completely fell on her shoulders, I could only obey and do what they say (for that many thanks to her). Without her and without the knowledge of Hebrew, we would definitely have been lost in these labyrinths of the hospital.

Doctor Avi Beri was a very pleasant man, a man of few words, like all surgeons in my view. Unfortunately, he confirmed my diagnosis and suggested two treatment options: tumor resection with a da Vinci robot, or radical nephrectomy with a laparoscopic method. I agreed to the last, because the tumor was located in the center of the kidney, and for my peace of mind it was preferable to have a nephrectomy by laparoscopic method. The next day I went to the hospital, and at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, I was operated on successfully by the doctor Avi Beri for an hour. I recovered from the anesthesia quickly, there was a slight pain in the right side, I have something like boots on my legs there that squeezed the air, pressing lightly on my lower leg to avoid blood clots on my legs. Only 2 small scars are visible (like mosquito bites) on my body. According to the nurse’s words, the kidney was removed from a small incision on the scar left after an appendectomy performed in childhood. The next day my hemoglobin dropped sharply, dizziness stopped after blood transfusions. I was staying in the ward for 3 days, after which I was discharged in good condition. The sensations of severe pain were absent during all these days, it was painful only when they took blood from a vein for analysis, but that’s no big deal.

Impressions from the department of international tourism Ichilov (Sourasky) and from the medical staff are very positive, although no one will take bows before you for paying a lot of money for medical services. I didn’t pay extra money into anyone’s pocket. Everything is organized clearly, competently, and professionally. The very appearance of the medical complex is very impressive: multi-storey buildings made of glass with a helipad on the roof of the main building. It is impressive and surprising – how such architectural beauty was created in such a small town!

My story is not an advertisement, I am an ordinary patient who wanted to share my impressions with you, because I remember very well the moment when I eagerly read into all the reviews of patients from different clinics. I hope my story to someone very useful. Now I am at home in Russia. The operation took place a month ago, I feel good. In six months, I plan to come to Sourasky again for a control examination. Thank you all for your attention!

Ichilov is a huge medical center with the latest equipment, where the professionals of their craft work, who are ready to help even in the most difficult situation. In this hospital, I was replaced by four joints, but during the preparation and during these operations, the doctors found serious problems that interfered with the implementation of almost every endoprosthesis. However, every time the doctors of this hospital found a solution to the problem and all operations were performed without any complications. I am very glad that I chose this particular hospital and my doctor Professor Aaron Menachem who operated me on all four times.

My daughter and I have been to this clinic three times for leg surgery.
Our attending physician – orthopedist Dr. Ethan Segev – is a Doctor with a capital letter! We are very grateful to him for his work. We have full confidence in him and his professionalism and thank Smetankina Maya for her help!
Dr. Segev corrected the position of our daughter’s legs, chose the right technique and correctly installed and reinstalled the plates in the knee joints in 2 years. The operations were very successful. So successfully that, for example, less than a day after the last operation, we were already discharged home!
We also express our gratitude to the entire staff of the Dan Children’s Department for the attention and care shown to our daughter.

Hello. I want to share my story of illness and recovery. I am the mother of eight children, and now I am the grandmother of two grandchildren. In 2011, I was diagnosed with cancer of the right breast (grade 3 carcinoma). diagnosis. But the proposed treatment immediately shocked my husband and me, to put it mildly. On the recommendation of friends from Israel, we turned to the international department of the medical center Ichilov. We were immediately consulted about the necessary examinations and operations.

Very friendly and responsive staff (unlike Moscow!) All our questions were answered in great detail. In five working days, I had all the necessary examinations and I received a consultation from the leading mammologist-oncologist Prof. M. Inbar. I will not describe everything in detail – I will say the main thing: my breast was saved, the tumor was reduced to 5 mm, and a lumpectomy was performed. In Israel, I received only one course of chemotherapy, the rest of the courses and radiation therapy I received in Russia, since I could not afford to leave my family. The operation was performed by an excellent surgeon-prof. Shnebaum. I want to express my immense gratitude to all the doctors and staff of this clinic! I have been living a full life for three years now.

I visited the hospital in March 2015 for examination and then in May 2015 for surgery to remove squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue at the Ichilov Medical Center (Sourasky) in Tel Aviv.

I have never met such attention, attitude, equipment, and conditions in Russia, anywhere!

The department of medical tourism picked up a convenient time and sequence of all procedures. In the laboratories, they masterfully performed all the manipulations during the examination. The results are recorded on a CD, the documents are translated into English. Everything was clearly explained.

The operation was carried out by a team with the magnificent ENT-surgeon Moshe Yuda headed.

Several shifts of nurses were caring of me and bringing back to life. The attitude here is different in principle: it is important for the medical staff not only to do their job, but also to cooperate with the patient – we are equal in the process of recovery by importance! And the issue is not that I paid for the operation. They treat the fellow nationals for free and completely on the same conditions! Attitude to all is the same. The staff bears and forbears. By the way, there are Russian speakers in every shift! Absolutely comfortable, calm, humanely, and very nice.

Many thanks to the Israeli medicine, the Sourasky Hospital (Ichilov), which is able to instill hope, give life, and very carefully treats patients!

I will try to objectively convey my vision regarding this hospital:

My doctor / surgeon was Mr. Avi Beri. I can judge his approach to treatment and professionalism subjectively by 5 points out of five. Any unnecessary tests and other things have not been assigned. Moreover, according to his recommendations, some procedures and analyzes were replaced during my visit by others. This became clear and necessary after the examination. The treatment plan was 95% saved from the planned one (before my first visit). This preliminary plan was presented to me on the basis of the first data.

As to the money, I spent the amount according to the planned budget. Conditions before and after surgery are quite satisfactory. The purpose of my trip was to get a quality treatment, with the result. If you want to see luxury wards, as far as I know this can be obtained, for example, in Assuta, or in the period after discharge. In no case, I don’t want to say bad about this clinic. Nurses are qualified, attentive, and responsive.

The work of the department of international tourism in all honesty leaves much to be desired. But again, I don’t talk about all the employees of this department. I would like to thank Irina (department of international tourism).

In my opinion, the problem of this department is the speed from addressing to the first visit to the doctor. I mean, when you want to be examined by a certain doctor. Of course, you can do it in the same Assuta, but it will cost other money. I was limited in budget, I could not afford it. In view of this, I would have to go to this clinic through Experts Medical on subsequent requests. This circumstance has allowed to save time, nerves, and as a result money.

I tried so that people who need help in Ichilov could read and avoid mistakes. Thanks Ichilov and the people who work there. Health to you, friends!

After detecting oncology, I immediately decided to go to Israel for treatment. Examination and diagnosis in Ichilov were conducted very quickly, in ten days, plus chemistry at the same time. Then I went to chemotherapy every three weeks. After repeated examination, I was operated on. It should be noted that I did not even feel like a cancer patient thanks to such a good approach. I recommend coming here to everyone who is sick.

The best, and this is not an exaggeration. They were approached several times, but each time the impression remained the most positive. Always polite and friendly staff, very clean, delicious food. The only minus is that they don’t wait for semolina, usually there are others on the menu.

I liked how they organized the matter with the transfer, when we did not have to stay in the hospital, they took us to the hotel comfortably. The notorious heat in Israel is easily tolerated with air conditioning. In general, they took care of the conditions. Well, the results of the treatment are certainly excellent. I recommend this clinic to everyone.

I have never met a more humane attitude than in this clinic. Here, everything is really aimed at not only curing a person and giving him health, but also providing maximum comfort during the treatment. During the course of treatment, we settled in a hotel 100 meters from the clinic, it was convenient to get there, although the heat was unreal. We were always accompanied to all professional departments.

A couple of times the procedures were done at night, at three o’clock – we had to get up on the alarm clock, but again, we were not alone. My son had to spend two days in the hospital, and the food here was much tastier than in most Russian hospitals. There was a curtain in the ward, it could be closed and no one bothered. It is immediately clear that they understand what personal space is. Overall, I was very satisfied with the quality of service, not to mention the treatment that helped my son recover.

I am treating in Ichilov.

I heard many negative reviews from the Israelis themselves (I apologize for such a frankness), but I myself have never been “caught.” Everything that they did there with me was top-notch, very attentive staff, instant response to everything.

Maybe I just was lucky!? I don’t know. But I highly recommend it!

I was sick for three years! In Ukraine they shot me, they said I was healthy!!! but I was sick and tired!!! No one heard me, they said I was a pretender!!! Many diagnoses were made and treatments were not clear for three years, I was tortured!!! they decided to go abroad!! they chose Israel!!! what she didn’t regret for a second!!! she went and Ikhylov!! the doctors are top class!!

the girls who accompanied me probably worried about me more than I did!! doctors don’t have honor like ours do, doctors are simple and very smart, the specialists are top class!!!! in a few days they made a diagnosis, conducted all the examinations!!! huge thank you to everyone who was involved in organizing my trip, to everyone who accompanied me everywhere, and thank you for your professionalism and excellent attitude towards people!!! I advise everyone to go there!!!!

I would like to thank Professor Baniel, Doctor Nado and all the staff of the urology department of the Rabin Medical Center. They removed a kidney carcinoma from my dad with damage to the aorta and metastases in the lymph nodes. My father is no longer young, and for him the operation was complicated, but everything went fine. During the entire rehabilitation period, my father was always surrounded with care and attention. Thank you all for a great job!

When I heard that I had stenosis of the left coronary artery, I was in shock. I took the specialists’ recommendation to have bypass surgery as a verdict. My family insisted that I be treated abroad. I had never travelled abroad before, so I was very afraid, all the more so because I was going for treatment. However, when I arrived in Israel, I was met by a pleasant young woman, the Russian-speaking coordinator Vika. She helped me get to the medical center where I was heading. There I had the operation. Everything went without complications. I do not regret going to this particular center, because I saw how professionally and smoothly not only the specialists but the entire staff work here. Special thanks to Professor Shmuel Fuchs. Thank you all for your attention to me. Rabin is an institution where real professionals work!

This is a friendly, professional and very convenient in all respects modern medical center. One of the best in Israel. It is not inferior and even surpasses in many ways the state hospital Tel a Shomer

I needed to have a scan. After I had it, I had to wait for what the doctor would say. After the MRI I felt fine, but I was worried about the results. My endocrinologist, Dr. Gurshtein, is our compatriot and is considered one of the best in the clinic. This opinion is confirmed by the examination results that doctors receive regularly. My ultrasound was done by a friendly woman over 60. It turned out to be Maya Cohen, a doctor without equal. Over many years of practice the Israeli doctor has shown that she can handle any patient, joking and encouraging them, even though some patients want to leave her office for fear of hearing something unpleasant about their illness. I cannot fail to mention the Russian-speaking coordinator Anna, who knows how to calm, support, persuade and organize everything properly. Many thanks! Friends! May God spare you any suspicion of cancer. But if such a diagnosis is made, do not waste time and money on other clinics, go straight to the Israeli cancer center. From the patient’s personal blog (quoted with her permission)

Two years ago I found out that I had breast cancer. Fortunately, the tumor was detected before it had time to metastasize. I realized that I had very little time and needed to make a decision urgently. After consulting with friends, I decided to go to Israel, where I later had surgery to remove and reconstruct the breast. I was under the care of Professor Rinat Yerushalmi, who turned out to be not only a good doctor but also a wonderful person. During this period I also managed to travel around Israel and see the sights, which helped me take my mind off things a little. Now I come for a check-up every six months and continue to combine it with a holiday.
