The ENT department is led by cochlear implant specialist, Prof. Ahmet Hakan Birkent, at this JCI-accredited hospital with a Johns Hopkins affiliation.

Comprehensive Diagnostics

A precise diagnosis begins with an outpatient ENT consultation. The clinic offers a full audiological exam to assess hearing levels. Advanced imaging is available for detailed analysis.

For severe sensorineural hearing loss, a cochlear implant may be recommended. Prof. Birkent specializes in this procedure. It involves implanting an electronic device. The surgery usually requires one to two nights in the hospital.

Cochlear implant (one ear): Package costs around $30,000-$32,000. This includes hospital stay, airport transfers, and interpreter services.

I would highly recommend bookimed to anyone needing a complex medical procedure

Our son was recommended to undergo a complex surgical procedure, which was not only risky but also extremely complicated. I couldn't be more satisfied with bookimed. From start to finish their representative Olha was professional, responsive and genuinely invested in helping me find the best possible care. Olha took the time to understand my medical needs and concerns and provide personalized recomendatios for hospitals and surgeons of different regions. The information they provided was thorough and accurate. The entire process was smooth and stressfree. All travel matters and documents were swiftly provided for travel procedures. i appreciate the extra effort to ensure I was comfortable every step of the way. They kept a check on my son even after the procedure regarding his well being. I would highly recommend bookimed to anyone needing a complex medical procedure .They have fully earned my trust and i feel grateful for their support during my challenging time.

the representative's swift and prompt response
