About the clinic
Da Vinci gastrectomy at Memorial Antalya Hospital in Turkey is a robotic-assisted stomach surgery used for treating tumors and cancer. The procedure uses the advanced Da Vinci Surgical System to perform complex operations through very small incisions. Memorial Antalya is a JCI-accredited facility known for being the first private hospital in Turkey licensed for organ transplants.
Robotic Gastrectomy Method
The surgery uses the Da Vinci Xi or Single Port (SP) robotic systems. Doctors make one 2-cm to 4-cm incision and three small 8-mm ports for the robot arms. This minimally invasive approach replaces large open cuts. The system provides the surgeon with a 3D high-definition view and 10x magnification of the surgical area. The robotic instruments can rotate 720 degrees, allowing for movements that a human hand cannot perform. The technology also filters out small hand tremors to increase precision during the removal of stomach tissue.
Expert Surgical Care
Prof. Dr. Alihan Gürkan leads the General Surgery Department at Memorial Antalya Hospital. As the head of the department, Prof. Dr. Gürkan oversees advanced robotic procedures for oncology patients. The surgical team uses the robot's precise control to protect healthy tissue and blood vessels. This accuracy is vital when removing cancerous tumors from the stomach area.
Recovery and Inpatient Benefits
Patients who undergo robotic stomach surgery typically experience several clinical benefits compared to traditional methods:
Reduced trauma: Smaller incisions lead to less blood loss and tissue damage.
Faster healing: Patients often return to their daily routines much sooner.
Lower risks: Minimally invasive techniques lower the chance of post-operative infections.
Bowel function: The digestive system usually starts working again shortly after the procedure.
Services for International Patients
Memorial Antalya Hospital provides a dedicated department for patients traveling from abroad. The hospital offers free airport transfers and professional interpreter services to help with communication. Patients can stay at the 5-star guest house located on the hospital grounds. As part of the Memorial Health Group, the facility follows international safety standards verified by its JCI accreditation.

We got to the MEMORIAL clinic due to an urgent diagnosis. The successful outcome of the operation depended on promptness. The question was about days. The operation was carried out the next day. The most difficult operation according to the Whipple method. Conducted by professor, head of surgery. Low bow to him. The entire staff of the department works perfectly, promptly responds to any request. Separately, I want to say about the work of the translator Aida. High qualification, operational work at any time of the day, sincerity - only a small description of her qualities. Special thanks for providing meals to the patient and accompanying person. The cuisine is very tasty, in some positions it is better than homemade. I enjoyed the vegetarian cuisine. But there is a different one. A low bow to all the staff of the clinic. They saved my husband's life.

The result exceeded our expectations and at the moment we are very satisfied
In the beginning everything seemed to be well organized, but many questions remained due to the language barrier, because the translation is still apparently more superficial and the translators probably do not have time to translate all the details, but I would like to receive more accurate information. Plus, we did not notice anything special in the approach of the doctors, they have their own protocol, which they follow and do not leave.
