Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy at the clinic of Prof. Dr. Murat Demirel in Ankara, Turkey, uses the body's natural healing power to treat joint and tissue damage. This regenerative treatment is led by an orthopedic specialist with over 20 years of experience. The therapy is commonly used to manage pain and repair tissue in the knee and shoulder areas.
Prof. Dr. Murat Demirel leads the clinic with over 20 years of experience in orthopedics and traumatology. He is a PhD candidate at the Ankara University Institute of Health Sciences. His expertise includes complex procedures like robotic surgery and shoulder arthroscopy. Prof. Dr. Demirel focuses on regenerative therapies, including stem cell and PRP applications. He creates a personalized treatment plan for every patient based on their specific injury and recovery goals.
The procedure uses a small amount of the patient's own blood. This blood is processed in a special machine to concentrate the platelets. These concentrated platelets contain growth factors that help repair damaged tissues. The doctor then injects this plasma directly into the affected joint or tissue. Because the treatment uses the patient's own blood, there are no foreign substances involved. This helps reduce the risk of allergic reactions and supports natural healing.
PRP therapy is an effective option for several orthopedic conditions. It helps accelerate tissue repair and reduces chronic pain. The clinic often uses this method for the following issues:
The number of required sessions varies for each person. Prof. Dr. Murat Demirel determines the schedule after a full orthopedic evaluation. He monitors how the tissue responds to the injections to decide if more sessions are needed. The procedure is performed in an outpatient setting, allowing patients to return to their daily routines shortly after. This method offers a non-surgical alternative for those looking to avoid or delay more invasive operations.

The clinic is led by Prof. Dr. Murat Demirel. He has over 20 years of experience in orthopedic surgery. He earned his medical degree from Ankara University in 1998 and received his specialist title in 2004. Since then, he has maintained academic involvement through Ph.D. studies at the Ankara University Institute of Health Sciences.
The clinic provides diagnostic and treatment pathways for conditions affecting the knee, hip, shoulder, and foot. Specialists use 3D joint modeling to select the most suitable prostheses for patients. This planning supports improved joint alignment and prosthesis longevity after surgery.
For joint preservation, the clinic offers several regenerative therapies:
For hip conditions, the clinic treats advanced osteoarthritis, congenital dislocations, and complex fractures. Hip arthroscopy is a frequently performed procedure for internal joint issues. This minimally invasive method uses small incisions and special surgical instruments. The clinic reports 85–95% patient satisfaction rates for appropriately selected hip arthroscopy cases.
Shoulder care includes treatment for muscle tears, recurrent dislocations, and instability. Surgeons perform shoulder arthroscopy to repair muscle tears through a camera-assisted "closed" technique. After surgery, patients follow a staged rehabilitation program. The first phase usually lasts 4–6 weeks. During this time, a special sling protects the joint while the patient performs specific exercises.
Foot and ankle services focus on fractures and Morton's neuroma (nerve thickening in the foot). The clinic follows a strict stepwise strategy for nerve pain – less invasive measures are always tried first. Surgery is considered a last resort. It is generally recommended only if pain persists for 3–6 months despite shoe modifications and injection therapy.
A primary differentiator for the clinic is the use of robotic knee replacement surgery. Surgeons use computer-assisted systems to place implants with millimetric precision. This technology allows for highly accurate surgical planning before the procedure begins.
The clinic uses a suite of diagnostic tools for accurate treatment planning:
These tools help identify the precise stage of osteoarthritis or the extent of ligament and meniscus tears. The clinic also performs neurological examinations to assess nerve compressions in the spine or limbs.
The clinic provides medical information in English to assist international visitors. Patients from abroad receive support with orthopedic consultations and personalized treatment planning. The clinic is located in the Maidan business center in Ankara, so patients have access to local amenities. Prof. Dr. Murat Demirel coordinates follow-up care and long-term rehabilitation programs to monitor recovery after patients return home.
