About the clinic
Ankle joint replacement at Büyük Anadolu Hospitals in Istanbul, Turkey, typically runs around $9,500 for an all-inclusive program. This surgery is performed by experts with over 15 years of experience using modern prosthetic joints to restore mobility and remove chronic pain. The hospital holds an International Health Tourism Certificate from the Turkish Ministry of Health and treats over 280,000 patients every year.
Experienced Orthopedic Surgeons
The orthopedic department is led by specialists who have each performed 1,000+ procedures. Assoc. Prof. Murat Aydın has over 15 years of experience in joint replacement and orthopedic oncology. Dr. Nihat Kayabasi also brings over 15 years of expertise, specializing in arthroscopic surgery and joint prostheses. Their extensive background in treating complex bone and joint issues helps them choose the best surgical approach for every patient.
The Ankle Replacement Procedure
The surgery lasts between 2 and 3 hours and is performed under general or regional anesthesia. The surgeon removes the damaged parts of the ankle joint and replaces them with a durable prosthetic joint. This implant is designed to match your anatomy and act like a natural joint. Patients stay in the hospital for 2 to 3 days for monitoring and initial recovery. The clinic claims a 95% success rate for this procedure in improving functionality and reducing pain.
Comprehensive Care and Diagnostics
Before the operation, patients undergo a series of tests to help the medical team plan the surgery. These include:
- Consultation with an orthopedist and traumatologist
- Blood tests and an EKG
- Joint X-rays, CT scans, and MRI scans
The all-inclusive package covers these diagnostic steps along with the surgery itself. It also provides VIP transfers between the airport, hotel, and clinic to make the travel process smooth.
Rehabilitation and Recovery
Recovery starts almost immediately after the operation. A personalized physical therapy program begins while the patient is still at the clinic. This rehabilitation continues for several months to help regain strength and movement. The medical team provides clear instructions on weight-bearing limits and the use of crutches. Regular follow-up consultations are also part of the program to track healing and answer any questions about the recovery journey. You can leave a request on Bookimed to receive a personal treatment plan.

Verified review.
I found the surgical staff and nurses in operating theatre to be extremely understanding and helpful. I was happy with the surgical procedure but would have liked a little more post-op feedback from the surgeon. Overall, though I was more than satisfied.
Unfortunately the same cannot be said about the treatment which I received from the nursing staff, especially at night, although I subsequently found out that they are very short staffed while not having at least one English speaking nurse on duty day or night.
Procedure was very good on the day of surgery.
Friendly and helpful medical coordinator
Friendly nurses during the day. However there was not even one English speaking nurse during every day and every night. The only means of communicating was by phone translator which became tiresome and frustrating.
There needs to be better understanding between the nursing staff and patients. Despite best efforts it all became overwhelming and frustrating. I don’t know why but it was difficult to inform the staff that I was vegetarian. Twice I needed to change the capither myself - seemingly because nurses see it below their station so need to find a nursing assistant to empty the capither bag. To summarise - the medical coordinator was extremely helpful; the care and help by surgical staff and theatre nursing staff was very good. However the treatment from many of the nurses left something to be desired.
