I highly recommend this clinic
My entire trip to Istanbul was well organised from the very start: the transfer from the airport to the clinic, the interpreter, and the competence of the staff and the doctor. I really appreciated that the doctor calmly and without any fuss explained what was going to be done and which procedure would be best for me. The interpreter was also very good; overall, the examination and operation went quickly (and painlessly). I highly recommend this clinic. For the money, you get good service and, above all, a high-quality operation. Thank you 🤩
The clinic is excellent – I highly recommend it. The staff take great care of their patients. The doctor is highly competent and provided a great deal of information about the treatment and rehabilitation. After a painless operation, my vision had already improved by the evening. A week has now passed and I am very satisfied; I’ve had no problems at all during this time, my vision is good and I’m happy. Thank you for everything))

I’ve been to many clinics because of problems with my eyes. But I’ve never felt such disappointment anywhere else :( I flew in from Kazakhstan specifically to visit this clinic. I’ve wasted so much time, money and energy. I wouldn’t recommend this clinic to anyone.
Nothing
That’s it! 1) Organisation, 2) Price, 3) Staff, 4) Lack of professionalism. Initially, they said: a doctor’s consultation with 7 additional tests, including a transfer from and to the airport, 2–3 days’ hospital stay with one accompanying person (in the event of surgery), pre- and post-operative examinations – all for 800 euros. In the end, I had to get to the clinic on my own, there was no transfer, and the two tests and examination cost 1,200 dollars. And I barely managed to get the examination report after three days! THE EXAMINATION REPORT!

But everyone is happy)))!
I liked everything, the clinic is really good.
The doctor is also a professional in his field.
One minus is that they said the operation was scheduled for Saturday, but in the end it was done on Wednesday, like they postponed it twice.
But everyone is happy)))!
They feed me three times, which is also a plus.
I liked everything about it.
They don't even speak Russian,
It is difficult with the language.
