1 accreditation
hospital certificates of quality

About the clinic

Adenoid removal, or adenoidectomy, is performed by Dr. Mustafa Çakır in Istanbul, Turkey. The procedure treats chronic nasal blockage and sleep apnea using a specialized method through the mouth that leaves no visible scars. Dr. Mustafa Çakır brings over 10 years of experience to this surgery, having treated 1,000+ patients at the JCI-accredited Medipol Mega University Hospital.

Expert ENT Care in Istanbul

Dr. Mustafa Çakır is a board-certified specialist who graduated from Istanbul University Cerrahpaşa. He focuses on ear, nose, and throat (ENT) issues, particularly pediatric throat surgeries. His practice maintains a 4.9 out of 5 satisfaction rating from previous patients. The clinic operates within Medipol Mega University Hospital, which holds HIMSS Stage 6 certification for high-level digital healthcare standards. International patients receive support for their journey, including airport pickup and hotel arrangements.

The Adenoidectomy Procedure

The process starts with a detailed ENT examination. Dr. Mustafa Çakır uses a nasal endoscope to look inside the nose. This tool helps the doctor see the exact size of the adenoids. It also shows how much they block the patient's airflow. The surgery is recommended for several conditions:

  • Chronic nasal blockage that makes breathing difficult
  • Sleep apnea and heavy snoring
  • Recurrent ear infections caused by tissue swelling
  • Persistent mouth breathing in children

Surgery and Recovery

The operation takes place under general anesthesia so the patient feels no pain. Dr. Mustafa Çakır reaches the adenoids through the mouth. This approach means the surgeon makes no external incisions on the face or neck. Most patients only need a short hospital stay or go home the same day.

Recovery is usually quick for younger patients. Most children return to school within 1 or 2 weeks. Adults often need a little more time to heal completely. During the first few days, patients should eat soft, cool foods and drink plenty of water. The medical team provides pain medication and specific instructions to help with a smooth healing process. Patients should avoid heavy exercise or strenuous activities until the doctor gives approval.

If you or your child struggle with breathing or chronic infections, you can request a consultation with Dr. Mustafa Çakır on Bookimed.

Dr. Mustafa Çakır – Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) & Rhinoplasty Specialist: more details about the clinic

Turkey, Istanbul

Dr. Mustafa Çakır runs a specialized ENT and rhinoplasty clinic in Istanbul, Türkiye. Established in 1951, the practice operates across nine buildings in the city. The clinic combines functional medical goals with a natural aesthetic approach for facial surgeries.

Accreditations and Hospital Affiliations

Treatment takes place at Medipol Mega University Hospital. This facility follows a quality management system aligned with JCI standards and Turkish Ministry of Health requirements. The hospital earned JCI accreditation in 2014.

The facility also holds the HIMSS Stage 6 certificate for its integrated electronic infrastructure. This digital system coordinates medical data and patient safety throughout treatment.

Nose and Sinus Surgery

Dr. Mustafa Çakır, an otolaryngologist with 10 years of experience, leads the rhinoplasty department. He graduated from Istanbul University Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine. The practice offers both open and closed rhinoplasty techniques based on individual facial anatomy.

Surgeons use cartilage grafts for structural support when needed. Sources include:

  • Septal cartilage from the patient's nose
  • Ear cartilage for supplemental support
  • Rib cartilage for complex revision cases

For patients with sinus disease, the clinic performs endoscopic sinus surgery. Diagnostics include nasal endoscopy to assess polyps, swelling, and drainage pathways. CT scans identify specific blocked areas before surgery.

Ear and Balance Disorders

The clinic treats structural ear issues and hearing loss through several surgical methods. One primary procedure is tympanoplasty, which repairs a ruptured eardrum. Surgeons typically make a small incision inside the ear canal or behind the ear.

Specialists use biological grafts to close eardrum holes:

  • Fascia from the ear muscles
  • Tragus cartilage
  • Concha cartilage

Tympanoplasty is performed under general anesthesia. Most patients go home the same day or after one night. The clinic also provides vertigo treatment for inner ear conditions such as Meniere's disease.

Throat and Pediatric ENT

Pediatric care includes surgical solutions for enlarged adenoids and tonsils. Specialists perform adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy for children with sleep apnea or chronic infections. A combined procedure is available when both tissues cause obstruction.

Pre-operative evaluation involves assessing breathing patterns and fever frequency. Surgeons use small endoscopes to determine the exact size of adenoid tissue. Children generally recover faster than adults after these procedures.

Specialized Equipment and Technology

The practice uses modern diagnostic tools to plan complex facial and ENT surgeries. Nasal endoscopy and otoscopy allow real-time visualization of internal structures. These imaging technologies help surgeons identify narrow airway passages and septal deviations.

All surgical interventions take place in modern operating rooms with dedicated post-operative monitoring. Diagnostic imaging, including sinus CT scans, is integrated into pre-surgical planning.

International Patient Services

The clinic offers a structured medical tourism pathway for patients from abroad. An international patient team assists with logistical planning and scheduling. Support is available in English.

International services include:

  • Airport pickup and transfers
  • Hotel accommodation options
  • Coordination of all clinical appointments
  • Remote follow-up and aftercare support

Patient coordination is managed through WhatsApp for real-time scheduling updates. This allows international patients to stay in contact with the medical team before and after travel.

I would like to thank my very dear teacher Mustafa so much for his care, attention, love, and respect 🌸 I’m truly grateful that our paths crossed with him.

It was a bit of a frightening process for me because it was my first time going into an operation, but I didn’t need to be scared—the surgery process went beautifully and smoothly. I had no problems before or after the surgery, whether it was the doctor or the staff who took care of me there. I thank everyone for their care and attention.

I’d like to start by saying, “I’m so glad I met him.” Because choosing a doctor is sometimes not just a decision about an operation, but also something that means learning to trust. On the day I preferred him for my nose surgery, I realized I had made one of the most right decisions. From the very first meeting, thanks to his sincerity, attentiveness, and the way he approached every question patiently, all my fears left room for trust. Mr. Mustafa is not only a successful surgeon, but also a very valuable person who values his patients and shows empathy. I would like to thank my doctor endlessly for his efforts, patience, and care. I recommend him to everyone with peace of mind.

Three months ago, I had septorhinoplasty surgery with Mustafa Hocа. It was very important to me that he informed me about the process and that he remained reachable in the following visits as well. I would like to thank him for his attention and care.

I had a perfectly executed operation both aesthetically and functionally. The nose was designed to suit my face best, and my breathing problem was completely resolved. Throughout the process, the attention and guidance were at the highest level.

From the very first consultation, she made me feel very confident. She patiently answered all the questions I had in mind. Now that I see the result, I realize that I truly made the right decision.

I experienced a professional process with good management of patient psychology in terms of pre-operative information and planning. The planning was aligned with my expectations and carried out on the basis of surgical reality. The result was exactly as I wanted, without changing what I had said. In the post-op period as well, I received satisfactory answers to all my questions. The fact that the clinic offers 24/7 continuous support during post-op care, and that there are continuously on-duty ENT doctors for potential issues, was also reassuring. I would especially like to thank the on-duty ENT doctors, Ms. Selcan, Mr. Buğra, and Ms. Pınar, for supporting me regarding a problem I experienced on the 15th day after the surgery. On this occasion, I would like to express my sincere thanks again. I recommend Mustafa Bey and his team for septoplasty and rhinoplasty.

When I decided to have a nose surgery, I was very lucky that our paths crossed with Op. Dr. Mustafa Çakır. From the information sessions before the operation to the healing process after the surgery, he made me feel like he was by my side at every moment. For me, the most important criterion—“continuous communication”—never had any interruptions; he answered every question with genuine interest. The result was exactly as I wanted: a nose that fits my face perfectly, extremely natural and aesthetic. He achieved a level of success that exceeded my expectations both functionally and visually. Thank you very much for his care, his friendly smile, and his professionalism. I recommend Mr. Mustafa to everyone who wants to get through this process without fear and with confidence.
