About the clinic
Fistula Laser Surgery (FiLaC) at Avrupa Cerrahi Proctology Center in Istanbul is a fast, non-surgical treatment for anal fistulas. This specialized clinic focuses entirely on anorectal diseases and uses the FiLaC method to seal fistula tracts without traditional surgery. Patients benefit from the expertise of Op. Dr. Yasir Gözü, who has over 20 years of experience and trains international surgeons in these laser techniques.
Advanced FiLaC Laser Method
The clinic uses Fistula-tract Laser Closure, known as FiLaC. During this procedure, a thin laser fiber enters the fistula tract. The laser energy seals the tract from the inside as the doctor slowly withdraws the fiber. This process takes only 5 to 8 minutes to complete. Because the laser is precise, it protects the sphincter muscles. This approach helps maintain bowel control and removes the risk of incontinence often linked to traditional cutting methods.
Treatment Process and Recovery
Treatment at Avrupa Cerrahi is designed for speed and comfort. Patients do not need general anesthesia or fasting. The procedure uses local anesthesia and fits into a single same-day visit. There is no hospital stay required, allowing for immediate discharge.
- Duration: The laser processing takes less than 10 minutes.
- Daily Activities: Most patients return to their routine within 2 to 4 days.
- Full Healing: The fistula tract typically closes completely within 1 to 2 weeks.
- Safety: The method is suitable for patients with diabetes or heart disease.
Specialized Medical Expertise
Avrupa Cerrahi is a Class A Proctology Center authorized by the Ministry of Health. Unlike general hospitals, this center is 100% dedicated to anorectal health. Op. Dr. Yasir Gözü leads the medical team as the founding physician. With over 20 years of experience, Op. Dr. Gözü has taught laser proctology to surgeons from the Middle East and Europe. Op. Dr. Hatice Şahin also provides expert care within the proctology department. The clinic holds a 4.8 rating from over 400 patient reviews.
Advantages of Laser Care
The FiLaC method avoids the need for incisions or stitches. This means there is no large open wound to manage after surgery. Patients report minimal pain, often comparing the experience to a routine dental visit. Post-operative care is simple, requiring patients to keep the area clean and prevent constipation. This modern approach provides a safe alternative for those seeking to avoid the risks of invasive surgery. To learn more about this procedure, you can leave a request on Bookimed.

In October I came for check up. It was 1 question for me. I was happy with result for 90%, because it is still left a small peace of skin. However it’s just a skin, not a problem (h.)
When doctor did check up he told that everything is sorted ( by health ), but this little peace of skin ( what is beauty side of operation ) needs a bit longer time. So the healing will be completely done after a year. If it’s not …I could be back and they remove it.
After 1-2 years its nit perfect still. In a fact nothing changed since last check up after a year...
But dont know ...maybe its the best what the doctor could do...
Thanks a lot to my Dr. Yasir Gözü
And Assistent/ interpreter Ezgi
PS also would like to say others do not to be worried if your healing process is a bit longer or going a bit different. Don’t panic. Take your time and take your peace. It’s the most important in this process.
Good luck and good health to everyone.

A clinic that respects patients, I suffered from internal hemorrhoids, and the doctor has a golden hand. I had no pain after the procedure, just something like a simple embarrassment for 2 days.

I traveled a long distance to come here for treatment, and I can truly say the entire experience exceeded my expectations in every way. From the very beginning, I felt that I was in caring and capable hands. The treatment was not only successful but also carried out with professionalism, compassion, and attention to every detail. All praise and thanks be to God first, and then to Dr. Yasser whose expertise and calm confidence gave me great reassurance throughout the process.
I also want to sincerely thank his dedicated team of assistants, who were always supportive and attentive to every need. And I cannot forget to mention Abu Ahmed, the translator, who was more than just a language bridge — he was a true companion, offering kindness, guidance, and a sense of friendship that made the entire journey feel much lighter and more comfortable.
This experience was not just about medical treatment — it was a complete journey of healing, trust, and human connection. I’m truly grateful, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for outstanding medical care with a human touch.

The care I received from Dr Yasir Gozu and his entire team was exceptional. They listened attentively to my concerns and provided personalized treatment that yielded positive results. The entire team at the clinic displayed a high level of professionalism and made me feel comfortable throughout the operation and all my following visits. One of the clearest examples of direct patient care experience is personalized interaction with the healthcare provider. When doctors take the time to explain diagnoses, treatment options, and next steps in an approachable manner, it fosters trust and satisfaction. A big THANK YOU to Dr Songul Civelek for your commitment and empathy. Throughout each of my appointments, you made me feel at ease and upbeat because you are kind, informed, and committed. Thank you for all that you do as a doctor. Thank you, Dna Floricica for all your care and support in the last 6 Months where you cared how I feel, calling me almost every day to check on me and encouraged me to go through all the healing process.
I wish you all continued success, happiness, and good health. God bless you!
