7-8 years ago, I went to the Orthopedics Clinic at Gülhane Training and Research Hospital with complaints of severe pain in my left knee. I had heard that Dr. Yusuf Erdem was very experienced and knowledgeable in orthopedics. PRP treatment was applied to my left knee. His communication with the patient and the success of the procedure were excellent. For 4 years, I had been experiencing severe pain radiating to my leg from my left hip, limited movement, and difficulty walking. With these complaints, I contacted Prof. Dr. Yusuf Erdem again. On February 24, 2026, he successfully performed my total hip replacement surgery. Despite my advanced age, I regained my health in a very short time. On this occasion, I would like to thank my esteemed professor once again. N.K.

My son, Halis Kayra Tuncel, underwent surgery by my doctor for a cruciate ligament and meniscus tear. He was walking less than 24 hours later and had no pain at all. My deepest gratitude to the doctor and his team; they are a very successful team you can go to with complete peace of mind. I offer my endless thanks to the doctor and his team.

On the first day of Ramadan, my mother had prostheses placed in both knees by Prof. Dr. Yusuf Erdem and his team. Before and after the surgery, including the time spent in the hospital, Professor Yusuf and his team were very attentive. Above all, they work with a friendly and young team. We were very satisfied; thank God there were no setbacks and the process went very well. Professor Yusuf and his team work in a completely professional manner. I am a public employee myself; I don’t easily write reviews on such platforms, but I wanted to share my satisfaction and my gratitude to our doctor here. For anyone with a health problem who is considering surgery, Prof. Dr. Yusuf Erdem is a doctor you can trust without fear, and I recommend him to everyone. I also wish a speedy recovery to everyone dealing with health issues.
