About the clinic
Degenerative spine disease treatment at Optimed International Hospital in Tekirdag, Turkey, involves high-accuracy diagnostics and advanced microsurgical techniques. Patients can access imaging services including a chest X-ray for around $100–$200, an MRI for around $300, or a CT scan for around $600. The hospital holds AACI accreditation and uses neuronavigation systems to support complex spinal procedures.
Diagnostic options for spine health
The hospital provides a fast-track diagnostic process, often completing assessments in one day. These tests help identify the exact location of nerve compression or spinal instability. Available diagnostics include:
- Neurological examination. A specialist evaluates reflexes, muscle strength, and sensory responses.
- Brain and spinal cord MRI. High-tesla imaging shows detailed views of soft tissues and discs.
- CT (computed tomography). This scan provides clear images of bone structures and calcifications.
- EMG (electromyography). This test checks the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them.
- X-ray and digital imaging. These tools help assess spinal alignment and bone density.
Surgical treatment for degenerative spine disease
Prof. Dr. Necati Kaplan leads the neurosurgery department at Optimed International Hospital. The medical team uses a multidisciplinary approach, combining neurosurgery, radiology, and physical therapy to create a recovery plan. Surgery focuses on restoring mobility and relieving chronic pain caused by disc wear or spinal narrowing.
- Spinal stabilization surgery. Surgeons use neuronavigation systems to place screws and plates with high precision. This fixes spinal instability and corrects malalignment.
- Decompressive surgery for nerve compression. This microsurgical technique removes bone or ligament tissue that presses on the spinal cord. It is helpful for patients with spinal canal stenosis.
- Disc herniation surgery. Using microsurgical discectomy, the surgeon removes herniated material in the neck or back. This procedure helps reduce leg or arm pain and restores daily function.
Patient services and facilities
The hospital offers private Smart Suites for international patients to stay comfortably during their recovery. A dedicated team provides multilingual support to help with communication throughout the stay. The clinic also arranges VIP airport transfers to make the journey easier. These services support the clinical work performed by Prof. Dr. Necati Kaplan and his surgical team.

If you're thinking about this, my main piece of advice is to be mentally ready for the procedure, as it can be overwhelming. I’m in early recovery from my breast reduction and lift, and I am feeling better than expected. My surgeon was great; he was honest about what results were realistic for my body and clearly explained all the risks, which gave me confidence. The clinic team was easy to reach and stayed in touch. Do be aware of some additional expenses – I had a prescription that cost extra at the pharmacy. A few practical tips: bring a spare compression garment, cotton t-shirts to wear underneath it, and your own snacks. Also, having my mum with me has been pivotal to my recovery, so I'd suggest bringing a companion if you can.
The co-ordinator at Bookimed, Winnington was brilliant. No matter how many questions I had he was able to answer them promptly and with one small hiccup from the hospital Winnington went out of his way to try and package a new procedure for me. My co-ordinator Eyyub at Optimed hospital was outstanding. The hospital was great, the staff on my floor were fantastic. We used goggle translate when the co-ordinator wasn’t with us if we came up against a language barrier but that was not very often. I was cared for before and after my surgery by the nursing staff who could not do enough for myself and my mum. I 10000000% recommend Bookimed & Optimed hospital
Post op instructions could be better. I have suggested to them to put together a general guide of what to do and not to do and for however long. What’s normal and if something doesn’t feel right who to contact etc. I think this will greatly help international patients and help the hospital co-ordinators from being hounded with a load of questions from several patients all at once. Peace of mind for the patient and a little more support for the co-ordinator.
The food is catered for Turkish patients and can be hard for international patients to eat. Again, I have suggested to them to try having a small box of fibrous cereal available at breakfast time and instead of a full meal at lunch time something simple like sandwiches or rolls/bagels/baked goods. Dinner was usually ok and we were able to eat most of that but our daytime diet is a little less than they were providing and there was a lot of food waste which they could minimise & use the money elsewhere if there was a cater to international patients diets.
