About the clinic
The Lokman Hekim Istanbul Hospital in Turkey provides full-service management for pancreatic cysts. Diagnostics start from around $330 for an Abdominal CT Scan, while the comprehensive Whipple surgery package costs around $15,000. The clinic's general surgery team is led by Dr. Alaattin Ozturk, who has 26 years of experience in the field.
Complete Diagnostic Assessment
An accurate diagnosis is essential for pancreatic cysts. The hospital uses a targeted approach to determine the nature of the cyst. This evaluation typically includes a personal examination by the surgeon and specific tests.
- Abdominal CT Scan: This imaging test provides detailed pictures of the pancreas. It helps identify the cyst's size and location. A scan may cost between $330 and $550.
- CA 19-9 Blood Test: This is a tumor marker test. It aids in assessing the potential for cancer.
- Personal Examination: The surgeon conducts a thorough consultation. This review determines the best treatment plan.
Surgical Treatment: The Whipple Procedure
When a pancreatic cyst is complex or potentially cancerous, surgery is often recommended. The Whipple procedure, or pancreaticoduodenectomy, is a major operation. It involves removing the head of the pancreas, part of the small intestine, the gallbladder, and the bile duct. Dr. Alaattin Ozturk has performed over 1,100 general surgery procedures. His extensive expertise guides this complex surgery. Patients stay in the hospital for about 7 days during recovery.
Treatment Package and Clinic Standards
The Whipple surgery package at Lokman Hekim Hospital is priced around $15,000. This package covers several key components for patient care.
- Consultation with the operating surgeon.
- A full 7-day hospital stay.
- A preoperative anesthesia examination.
The hospital holds DIN EN ISO 9001 certification for quality management. This accreditation underscores its commitment to standardized medical services. A complete evaluation, including the CA 19-9 test, is required before any surgical decision. For a personalized assessment of a pancreatic cyst, consulting with the hospital's specialists is the recommended next step.

I was on 29 September 2025 at Lockman hekim clinic for breast and eyelid reduction.All my fears and doubts were in vain.
From the very beginning of my enquiry at Bookimed to the last taxi ride to the airport after the procedures, everything went without a single obstacle.
Everything went smoothly and smoothly.
We arrived very early, we were taken to the clinic and our interpreter Olga was already in touch with us. We were placed in a beautifully decorated room, on the same day all the necessary medical parameters were taken. The doctor clearly explained what would happen and how it would be done.
We were in the clinic for 3 days and then to the hotel. It was also clean, beautifully designed, rich breakfast.
I recommend Lokman Hekim and Dr Marat Yaman if you want to change your appearance.
Food, staff, I can't single out anything, everything was good.
About Bookimed service

Thank you so much 😊
I am very grateful to all the staff for their attentiveness and prompt assistance. I travelled alone, but I didn't feel lonely, I had support from all sides ☺️ Transfer is super, I didn't even expect that it would be so VIP, the drivers are very well-mannered, attentive, careful driving! The hotel is great, I got even more than положено👍🏼 The interpreter Olga provided all kinds of help, support and was always there for me! 🫶 I had a difficult operation on my nose, but Murat Yaman is a professional and did everything to the maximum and even more, I do not regret that out of all the options I was offered I chose him 🥰 I hope my nose will be beautiful) Thank you so much 😊
Transfer, ward, doctor, interpreter, hotel, staff
Some of the staff when I was lying in the ward forgot to bring me ice, water, but that's the way it is, I understand that they have a high workload and can't keep everything in their heads, so in the end they brought it a little later ) This is a trifle and the only small minus, I would not take it into account compared to the way they ran over me.
About Bookimed service
I accidentally found an advert on the internet and decided to just ask about rhinoplasty)))) In the end I had it done 😄 Although I didn't really plan to decide so quickly. The manager did his best, well done ))

We were brought straight to the hospital after arriving. Good transfer! Olga, our interpreter, met us at the hospital.
She was not only an interpreter but also a counsellor on many issues in Istanbul, as it was the first time we had been here. In the evening we took a blood test and in the morning I was operated. I came out of the anaesthesia easily, already in a new image. The doctor was very attentive, both before the operation, during the examination, and after. Service staff, very nice nurses, even though I did not understand them, but smiled doing their job and did not embarrass me. In the hospital I was with my husband only two nights, I felt good and we moved to the hotel (room large, clean with breakfast included!). We went to the dressing. There was always a transfer!
Additionally I want to add about Istanbul - it is very interesting and mysterious city fairy tale!
Thank you all who supported me from the very beginning of my decision and to the end! Peace, health and fulfilment of wishes!
I recommend it!
That's it!

They met and exceeded my expectations
I was hesitant at the beginning because I didn’t want what to expect. That changed since the min I landed. I had a wonderful experience and everything went smooth. From and to the airport to the hospital, the amenities and staff were all exceptional, just as described upon booking. They met and exceeded my expectations . The only thing I would improve is the night shift nurses could be a little more fluent in English instead of using google translator. Overall the whole team was really nice . Would definitely recommend this clinic !!
Everything, the whole experience

The stay itself was good, I felt comfortable
The stay itself was good, I felt comfortable. The only thing that bothered me was that the staff took a long time to deal with my requests. They were very friendly but I had to wait a long time to get what I needed, and sometimes I was forgotten.
The aftercare also left a lot to be desired. I had a small problem, sent photos in the chat on Whatsapp as agreed and described the problem. It took 3 days before I got a reply and then I had to wait again for the surgeon to get back to me. I'm still waiting.
