What patients say about Breast Implants with Breast Lift at Dr. Safa Manav Clinic

How convenient is the clinic location and access?

Patients consistently praise the seamless logistics, describing the entire journey as 'just top' from airport pickup to recovery. The clinic's proximity to partner hotels creates exceptional convenience—one noted the clinic is 'literally over the road' from their hotel, making follow-up visits effortless. Airport transfers, hotel accommodations, and coordination are described as 'excellent' with staff going 'above and beyond' to handle everything smoothly. Some mentioned minor airport pickup timing issues, though coordinators quickly resolved any problems. Hotels offer reasonably priced meals and nearby dining options, while staff arrange COVID tests and other travel requirements, making the entire experience remarkably well-organized.

Wonderful team. Mustafa - interpreter-coordinator organised everything as conveniently as possible. He was always on the phone, ready to solve any issue. The whole trip: from the transfer at the airport to the first result of the operation - just top. The transfer, the hotel where I was accommodated, the hospital and its hospital room - excellent. Attentive medical staff. Not all nurses spoke English but were always willing to help, used the translator on the phone. The doctor is energetic, understanding and speaks English, so there were no problems with communication. I am satisfied with everything and I am glad that I chose this clinic.

I can confidently say that I am satisfied with everything. Starting from the welcome at the airport, the hotel, the attention and care of the staff, thanks to Elif, Elita, Defne, all of them were eager to help me and make my stay at the clinic as comfortable as possible, I would also like to mention the professionalism of Dr Safa, who listened to all my wishes, to whom I could trust and got the best result, he did better than I expected! I was helped even when I forgot my passport at the hotel on the way to the airport...the whole team reacted and was able to help me! I am very grateful and had my first best experience with my mamoplasty at this clinic, thank you!

Thr hotel was lovely, very clean with friendly staff. The aesthetics centre co-ordinator Ege was exceptional and went above and beyond to ensure i was safe having anasthetic after having a bad bout of covid. He took me to two specialist hospitals for checks on my lungs and heart and stayed to translate so i understood what was happening. When i was given the all clear, he stayed on call 27/7 and was brilliant. The surgeon Dr Ergin Er, spoke very good English and although i am still strapped up and havent had a good close look, it seems hes done an exceptional job. I was discharged back to the hotel the day after my op with all the medication i need given to me and explained in full. The clinic is literally over the road from the hotel so i have easy access if i have any problems and have been told to pop over anytime ifbi have a problem. The hotel has arranged for our lateral flow tests for journey home and at a reasonable price. The hotel restaurant makes lovely food, also at a reasonable price and there are places nearby to eat out or buy snacks. I have no worries about recommending the clinic and hotel to anyone and will definately come back nexr year with my hubby for dental treatment.

Are there any hidden or extra costs?

Based on patient experiences, the pricing appears transparent with no unexpected charges mentioned. One patient noted that when additional procedures were needed, they were clearly informed about the updated costs upfront. All necessary medications were provided and explained after surgery without extra fees. Hotels arranged COVID tests 'at a reasonable price,' and restaurant meals were also described as reasonably priced. Patients appreciated that clinics were easily accessible from hotels, with one mentioning they could 'pop over anytime' if problems arose. The overall impression suggests straightforward pricing with costs communicated clearly from the start.

Hello everyone ! I want to leave a review, firstly I want to say when I arrived at the clinic, the doctor just looked at me and didn’t say anything, everything was very fast, they took blood for analysis and after that they didn’t say about the result. I had breast augmentation surgery. .. since I am a mother after breastfeeding a baby, I also needed a breast lift, the price tag was put up for me for a breast lift and implants. But no one did braces for me (Everything is very housey, it feels like they are just stuffing their hands, work is on stream (after the operation I stayed in the hospital for a day, the relationship was wonderful, and for this I thank them very much) after a daily stay I was taken to hotel, they came and ran to see the doctor, everything seems to be fine, but there is one thing, but when my chest began to heal and I could look and touch, it turns out that the implants were not fixed at all, I wrote this to the curator and she wrote to me what I need get better, but during the operation my weight was the same, I’m horrified I don’t know what to do, the war has also begun, I go only in a bandage

Is the procedure or recovery painful?

Patients report that abdominal liposuction pain is manageable and well-controlled in Turkey. One patient noted they 'did not have the intense pain' they'd read about online, though acknowledged having 'very painful moments.' The key difference seems to be excellent pain management support. Nurses provide relief whenever needed, and clinics go the extra mile—one patient received transportation for additional pain shots after discharge. Another described the anesthesia as 'mild' during their procedure. While discomfort is expected, the comprehensive pain management approach helps patients get through recovery more comfortably than anticipated.

I chose this clinic based on the reviews and I am writing myself. Catherine gave me all the information and helped me with all my organised questions. I had a breast augmentation and a mini tummy tuck just over a week ago and everything was top notch. The contact persons were always in touch with me, available for feedback at any time. The operation was successful , the anaesthesia was mild . Dr Hakan Teymur is empathic, pleasant person, with attention and individual attitude to the patient. Many thanks to Akylay, who supported me and was always in touch with me. Very kind person. Narmina is a very pleasant, positive girl. Now I will wait for the result.

First I was a bit skeptical of Bookimed as I’ve never used or heard of their services. I must say they were very professional, answered all the questions I’ve had, and there were many and everything they said would happen happen. Yasin was my medical coordinator and everything that I’d read about him in the reviews were ALL true. He’s friendly, accessible and answered all my questions promptly. My surgeon was Dr Gurhan Ozcan and I can’t say enough about what an AWESOME doctor he truly is. My daughter who accompanied me on the trip, and I had a lot of questions for him and being a professor, he answered each and every questions in my pre-operation as well as post operation visit. All the staff, from driver who picked me up, the anaesthesiologist to the person who brought my food, to the nurses, cleaning staff were simply amazing and I HIGHLY recommend Bookimed, Istanbul Aesthetics Clinic, Yasin and the team. I had a breast lift and tummy tuck (pics enclosed) and I did not have the intense pain that I’ve read about online. Don’t get me wrong, I had very painful moments but the nurses were there to give me pain relief whenever I needed it. Even after leaving the clinic, Yasin sent a car for me in order to get a “shot” for pain. Bravo to the entire team

How effective are the treatment results?

Patients consistently report results that 'exceeded expectations' with their procedures in Turkey. One described having an 'incredible experience' with multiple surgeries, while another called their surgeon a 'talented surgeon' and felt satisfied with results visible just 10 days post-operation. Dr. Ergin Er receives particular praise for delivering excellent outcomes. Patients appreciate receiving detailed medical reports documenting exactly what was performed. Several mention they would return to the same clinics or recommend them to others, with one noting the surgeon 'did better than I expected.'

How long is the recovery period?

Based on patient experiences, recovery involves staying in the hospital for one day after surgery, then being discharged to a nearby hotel with all necessary medications and detailed instructions. Patients describe being 'strapped up' initially but report that the anesthesia was 'mild' and recovery manageable. One patient noted they were writing their review 'just over a week ago' and feeling positive about their progress. The clinic's proximity to accommodation makes follow-up visits convenient, with patients told to visit anytime if problems arise. Support staff remain available throughout recovery, providing reassurance during the healing process.

Patients consistently describe Turkish doctors as highly skilled professionals who inspire immediate confidence. Dr. Ergin Er is repeatedly praised as a 'talented surgeon,' while Dr. Gurhan Ozcan is called 'AWESOME' by patients who appreciate his professorial approach to answering questions. Doctors listen carefully to patient wishes and provide clear explanations about procedures. One patient noted their surgeon 'already sees your result in advance' during consultations. Some experienced rushed initial consultations, though the surgical expertise remained strong. The overall impression is of experienced surgeons who combine technical skill with genuine care for patient comfort.

When I first entered the clinic, I immediately liked the atmosphere in the clinic. The furniture is very beautiful, the staff is very friendly and professional. Everyone knows his business. When I met the doctor in the office, he immediately aroused my confidence. Very professional, knows exactly what is best for the client. He listens to your wishes and consults with you and suggests how it will be better. It was very easy to work with him. He, as a professional, already sees your result in advance. The chamber was clean, tidy, nothing superfluous and it was pleasant to be in it.

How comfortable and modern are the clinic facilities?

Patients consistently describe Turkish clinic facilities as modern and welcoming. One noted the 'very beautiful' furniture and immediately liked the atmosphere upon entering. Hospital rooms are described as 'clean, tidy, nothing superfluous' with one calling their room 'excellent.' Some mentioned minor communication gaps with nursing staff, though they were always willing to help using phone translators. The facilities prioritize patient comfort with convenient hotel accommodations literally 'over the road' from clinics. Medical staff create an attentive environment where patients feel well-cared for throughout their stay.

Will language barriers affect my treatment?

Based on patient experiences, language barriers are effectively managed through dedicated interpreters and English-speaking doctors. Dr. Ergin Er is praised for speaking 'very good English' with clear communication throughout treatment. Coordinators provide translation services, with one staying to translate during hospital visits so patients 'understood what was happening.' Some nurses don't speak English, though they remain helpful and use phone translators when needed. Interpreters are described as being available around the clock to solve any issues. Patients report having all medications and post-op instructions 'explained in full' before discharge.

How clear and organized is the clinic's paperwork?

Patients consistently praise Turkish clinics for thorough documentation and clear communication throughout their breast surgery journey. One patient specifically highlighted receiving 'a full medical report' detailing everything done during the procedure, which provided valuable peace of mind. Surgeons like Dr. Gurhan Ozcan take time to answer questions comprehensively during both pre and post-operation visits. Medication instructions are 'explained in full' upon discharge, ensuring patients understand their aftercare completely. The administrative process flows smoothly from initial coordination through recovery, with patients noting that 'everything they said would happen' actually happened as promised.

Patients consistently describe clinic staff as going 'above and beyond' with exceptional care. One coordinator took a patient to two specialist hospitals for pre-surgery health checks and stayed to translate everything. Staff remain accessible around the clock, with one patient noting how they arranged transportation for pain medication even after discharge. Nurses provide immediate pain relief when needed, and the entire team—from drivers to cleaning staff—are described as 'simply amazing.' Some noted occasional airport transfer delays, though the overall support remained outstanding. Staff help solve unexpected problems, like when one patient forgot their passport and the 'whole team reacted' to help retrieve it before their flight.

All necessary medications were provided and explained after surgery without extra fees. Hotels arranged COVID tests 'at a reasonable price,' and restaurant meals were also described as reasonably priced. Patients appreciated that clinics were easily accessible from hotels, with one mentioning they could 'pop over anytime' if problems arose. The overall impression suggests straightforward pricing with costs communicated clearly from the start.

Hello everyone ! I want to leave a review, firstly I want to say when I arrived at the clinic, the doctor just looked at me and didn’t say anything, everything was very fast, they took blood for analysis and after that they didn’t say about the result. I had breast augmentation surgery. .. since I am a mother after breastfeeding a baby, I also needed a breast lift, the price tag was put up for me for a breast lift and implants. But no one did braces for me (Everything is very housey, it feels like they are just stuffing their hands, work is on stream (after the operation I stayed in the hospital for a day, the relationship was wonderful, and for this I thank them very much) after a daily stay I was taken to hotel, they came and ran to see the doctor, everything seems to be fine, but there is one thing, but when my chest began to heal and I could look and touch, it turns out that the implants were not fixed at all, I wrote this to the curator and she wrote to me what I need get better, but during the operation my weight was the same, I’m horrified I don’t know what to do, the war has also begun, I go only in a bandage

Thr hotel was lovely, very clean with friendly staff. The aesthetics centre co-ordinator Ege was exceptional and went above and beyond to ensure i was safe having anasthetic after having a bad bout of covid. He took me to two specialist hospitals for checks on my lungs and heart and stayed to translate so i understood what was happening. When i was given the all clear, he stayed on call 27/7 and was brilliant. The surgeon Dr Ergin Er, spoke very good English and although i am still strapped up and havent had a good close look, it seems hes done an exceptional job. I was discharged back to the hotel the day after my op with all the medication i need given to me and explained in full. The clinic is literally over the road from the hotel so i have easy access if i have any problems and have been told to pop over anytime ifbi have a problem. The hotel has arranged for our lateral flow tests for journey home and at a reasonable price. The hotel restaurant makes lovely food, also at a reasonable price and there are places nearby to eat out or buy snacks. I have no worries about recommending the clinic and hotel to anyone and will definately come back nexr year with my hubby for dental treatment.

Is the procedure or recovery painful?

Patients report that abdominal liposuction pain is manageable and well-controlled in Turkey. One patient noted they 'did not have the intense pain' they'd read about online, though acknowledged having 'very painful moments.' The key difference seems to be excellent pain management support. Nurses provide relief whenever needed, and clinics go the extra mile—one patient received transportation for additional pain shots after discharge. Another described the anesthesia as 'mild' during their procedure. While discomfort is expected, the comprehensive pain management approach helps patients get through recovery more comfortably than anticipated.

I chose this clinic based on the reviews and I am writing myself. Catherine gave me all the information and helped me with all my organised questions. I had a breast augmentation and a mini tummy tuck just over a week ago and everything was top notch. The contact persons were always in touch with me, available for feedback at any time. The operation was successful , the anaesthesia was mild . Dr Hakan Teymur is empathic, pleasant person, with attention and individual attitude to the patient. Many thanks to Akylay, who supported me and was always in touch with me. Very kind person. Narmina is a very pleasant, positive girl. Now I will wait for the result.

First I was a bit skeptical of Bookimed as I’ve never used or heard of their services. I must say they were very professional, answered all the questions I’ve had, and there were many and everything they said would happen happen. Yasin was my medical coordinator and everything that I’d read about him in the reviews were ALL true. He’s friendly, accessible and answered all my questions promptly. My surgeon was Dr Gurhan Ozcan and I can’t say enough about what an AWESOME doctor he truly is. My daughter who accompanied me on the trip, and I had a lot of questions for him and being a professor, he answered each and every questions in my pre-operation as well as post operation visit. All the staff, from driver who picked me up, the anaesthesiologist to the person who brought my food, to the nurses, cleaning staff were simply amazing and I HIGHLY recommend Bookimed, Istanbul Aesthetics Clinic, Yasin and the team. I had a breast lift and tummy tuck (pics enclosed) and I did not have the intense pain that I’ve read about online. Don’t get me wrong, I had very painful moments but the nurses were there to give me pain relief whenever I needed it. Even after leaving the clinic, Yasin sent a car for me in order to get a “shot” for pain. Bravo to the entire team

How effective are the treatment results?

Patients consistently report results that 'exceeded expectations' with their procedures in Turkey. One described having an 'incredible experience' with multiple surgeries, while another called their surgeon a 'talented surgeon' and felt satisfied with results visible just 10 days post-operation. Dr. Ergin Er receives particular praise for delivering excellent outcomes. Patients appreciate receiving detailed medical reports documenting exactly what was performed. Several mention they would return to the same clinics or recommend them to others, with one noting the surgeon 'did better than I expected.'

How long is the recovery period?

Based on patient experiences, recovery involves staying in the hospital for one day after surgery, then being discharged to a nearby hotel with all necessary medications and detailed instructions. Patients describe being 'strapped up' initially but report that the anesthesia was 'mild' and recovery manageable. One patient noted they were writing their review 'just over a week ago' and feeling positive about their progress. The clinic's proximity to accommodation makes follow-up visits convenient, with patients told to visit anytime if problems arise. Support staff remain available throughout recovery, providing reassurance during the healing process.

Dr. Ergin Er is repeatedly praised as a 'talented surgeon,' while Dr. Gurhan Ozcan is called 'AWESOME' by patients who appreciate his professorial approach to answering questions. Doctors listen carefully to patient wishes and provide clear explanations about procedures. One patient noted their surgeon 'already sees your result in advance' during consultations. Some experienced rushed initial consultations, though the surgical expertise remained strong. The overall impression is of experienced surgeons who combine technical skill with genuine care for patient comfort.

Patients consistently describe Turkish clinic facilities as modern and welcoming. One noted the 'very beautiful' furniture and immediately liked the atmosphere upon entering. Hospital rooms are described as 'clean, tidy, nothing superfluous' with one calling their room 'excellent.' Some mentioned minor communication gaps with nursing staff, though they were always willing to help using phone translators. The facilities prioritize patient comfort with convenient hotel accommodations literally 'over the road' from clinics. Medical staff create an attentive environment where patients feel well-cared for throughout their stay.

Will language barriers affect my treatment?

Based on patient experiences, language barriers are effectively managed through dedicated interpreters and English-speaking doctors. Dr. Ergin Er is praised for speaking 'very good English' with clear communication throughout treatment. Coordinators provide translation services, with one staying to translate during hospital visits so patients 'understood what was happening.' Some nurses don't speak English, though they remain helpful and use phone translators when needed. Interpreters are described as being available around the clock to solve any issues. Patients report having all medications and post-op instructions 'explained in full' before discharge.

Attentive medical staff. Not all nurses spoke English but were always willing to help, used the translator on the phone. The doctor is energetic, understanding and speaks English, so there were no problems with communication. I am satisfied with everything and I am glad that I chose this clinic.

How clear and organized is the clinic's paperwork?

Patients consistently praise Turkish clinics for thorough documentation and clear communication throughout their breast surgery journey. One patient specifically highlighted receiving 'a full medical report' detailing everything done during the procedure, which provided valuable peace of mind. Surgeons like Dr. Gurhan Ozcan take time to answer questions comprehensively during both pre and post-operation visits. Medication instructions are 'explained in full' upon discharge, ensuring patients understand their aftercare completely. The administrative process flows smoothly from initial coordination through recovery, with patients noting that 'everything they said would happen' actually happened as promised.

One coordinator took a patient to two specialist hospitals for pre-surgery health checks and stayed to translate everything. Staff remain accessible around the clock, with one patient noting how they arranged transportation for pain medication even after discharge. Nurses provide immediate pain relief when needed, and the entire team—from drivers to cleaning staff—are described as 'simply amazing.' Some noted occasional airport transfer delays, though the overall support remained outstanding. Staff help solve unexpected problems, like when one patient forgot their passport and the 'whole team reacted' to help retrieve it before their flight.

I was so impressed with how every little detail of my visit was meticulously dealt with by Defe
I was so impressed with how every little detail of my visit was meticulously dealt with by Defe. From the moment I got off the plane EVERY small detail was taken care of. From my limo pick up just for myself to the hotel (a 5*+ hotel at least). Check in then hospital Dr Ali was such an expert and explained everything before my operation and made sure I knew exactly what was going to happen.After the operation I had the ultimate first class care and attention and had my very own night nurse from 20:00 until 08:00 for both evenings in hospital. My limo was waiting to take me back to the hotel where I had a 24 hour infirmary clinic. I also had a nurse that visited daily to ch CK and administer my medication and creams and ensure I was feeling ok every day. Defe was my contact and she was at the end of the phone 24/7 for texting, ringing and make me feel safe and well. The hotel is above and beyond anything I have ever known, the staff are all helpful, the hotel security is absolute top notch. I was on the fourth floor my pass key would only allow me to go to or from they floor to the ground level OR roof terrace, each person on any one floor were ultra safe at all times.
Dr Ali a man with such intricate hands using cutting edge technology to the best possible expertise. the hospital was ultra clean, sterile and quiet, the atmosphere was so chilled happy and caring at all times the hotel, the immaculate cleanliness of the hotel at all times of the day or night. The restaurant had every type of food available that everyone was able to find something they each liked to eat. The meals were 5* cuisine, and melted in your mouth.

It was the best decision I could have made
I was very sceptical at first, did a lot of research and asked a lot of questions. In the end, I chose Dr Ali Sadioglu - and that was the best decision I could have made. Dr Sadioglu completely won me over with his calm, empathetic manner, his many years of experience and his exceptional patience. I opted for a deep plane facelift and lipofilling - and the results far exceeded my expectations. Dr Sadioglu works extremely precisely, takes a lot of time and responds to individual wishes. You feel that you are not only in good hands with him professionally, but also personally. He and his team delivered the all-round carefree package. I had 9 nights in a great hotel. I spent two nights in hospital after the operation. During this time, I had my own nurse on site for two nights, who was provided by Dr Sadioglu. Many thanks also to Nurse Shawa for her kind and very warm manner and care. This personal care gave me an additional feeling of safety and security. Dr Sadioglu himself was on site for two days to check on the healing process. In the following days at the hotel, a nurse from Dr Sadioglu came by every day for a check-up and there was also a nurse on site 24/7 at the hotel itself. A small side note: the VIP transfer service was unfortunately not quite as reliable as expected. However, this is not the fault of Dr Sadioglu's team, but is the sole responsibility of the external provider. The medical care and the entire practice team (Defne, Buse, Elif) were first class in every respect. If you are looking for an excellent surgeon for a facelift, you are definitely in the very best hands with him. For me there is no better surgeon, he enjoys my complete trust because he knows exactly what he is doing. I would have an operation performed by Dr Ali Sadioglu again at any time. A tip for after the operation: get some cool packs from the local pharmacy and put them in the fridge in your hotel room. It was the best decision I could have made.
The implementation and care by Dr Sadioglu and his Resm.
The somewhat gruff staff in the hospital itself.

He most certainly has
I am leaving a detailed review covering four procedures I’m from the U.K. I had a Rhinoplasty, Blepharoplasty, deep plane neck and lower face lift on 29th December 2024 with Dr Ali SADIOGLU. Whilst my overall results can’t yet be seen I would like to tell you what I can for now. Dr Ali SADIOGLU has a professional approach to his work but remains compassionate, empathetic and respectful to your needs and wishes. He listens to what you are saying and discusses any concerns, issues and questions that you have about your procedure. He advises you. He is truthful about the results that you could achieve. The pre procedure coordinator, Defne, was invaluable. Her services before arriving in Istanbul were excellent. Fluent English is spoken and no question was too much for her to deal with and answer promptly. Without Defne and her attention to the detail of my potential booking I would not have booked. Well done Defne. My procedure coordinator and my English speaking contact in Istanbul was Elif. The wonderful, professional, never tiring, always available Elif. She was amazing. Elif attended all my appointments with me. Travelled in the taxis with me but remained professional. She ensured that there were no issues with translation (despite my surgeon speaking excellent English) 5*’s for service and patience. *RHINOPLASTY* Having a Rhinoplasty at 57yrs old concerned me. Dr Ali SADIOGLU Explained in detail exactly what he thought would look best for my face. I put my entire trust in him and the end product was AMAZING. My new nose was unveiled a week after surgery. IT WAS PERFECT. I can’t thank Dr Ali SADIOGLU enough. Since arriving back in the U.K. friends and family have described my nose as beautiful and whilst I would not use that word usually about myself, it’s a truly beautiful nose. *BLEPHAROPLASTY* Dr Ali SADIOGLU explained how he could improve the look of my eyes with a small procedure. The micro detail in this small area needed the skills of Dr Ali SADIOGLU. I no longer look tired. Again, I am so pleased that I put my trust in him. *DEEP PLANE NECK AMD LOWER FACE LIFT* My research lead me to Dr Ali SADIOGLU and I am pleased that it did. My final outcome won’t be seen for a few months so I will review the first two weeks. Prior to meeting Dr Ali SADIOGLU I sent photos and a description of what I thought I wanted to achieve and he carried out a remote consultation. When I met Dr Ali SADIOGLU, we went through a detailed consultation in person. He answered all my questions and addressed all my concerns. He explained where the incision lines would be and described the deep plane process in detail. I was confident the I was Dr Ali SADIOGLU‘s next patient. Surgery went well. Dr Ali SADIOGLU visited me after surgery and also the next day. The care by him and his team was exceptional. All the aftercare was explained clearly. Moving on to the result…. I write this review at 2 weeks post op. My stitches are where Dr Ali SADIOGLU said they would be and are healing nicely. Whilst my face is swollen still, I can see its new tighter, younger and smoother look. Everything is as it should be at this stage. People have told me that I already look 15 years younger. I’m sorry for the length of the review but Dr Ali SADIOGLU deserves this review. He is an amazing surgeon. Someone previously described him as having ‘magic hands’. He most certainly has. I promise to you that I will update this review as time goes by so you have the full picture. You don’t have to pick the surgeon that has the most 5* reviews to find the best. Dr Ali SADIOGLU Is a hidden Turkish Gem.
The skills of the surgeon that I chose
I would have appreciated written instructions for after care and use of medications. There were so many things to remember. Even though I could ask my coordinator anything at anytime it would have helped as a handy reference

This by far outweighs my other experience
I elected to do a facelift , and fat transfer with Dr Safa Manav in Istanbul and I am a patient who has had surgery for liposuction and lip lift and threads in Istanbul before with a different clinic. So it has been very interesting for me to make the comparison. I will not name the other clinic but will say that Dr Manav is streets ahead. I am only four days into my operation but I am so impressed with everyone who I have come into contact with. Delfe who handles the what’s app while you are in your own country is clear and prompt on what’s app. Upon arriving a driver collected me and the car has tv , WiFi, water and a very polite driver. Then I met Elif ( her full name is Elif bilge yavuz ) and she is your coordinator. She speaks perfect English and understands absolutely everything, is intelligent and empathic and I can entirely understand why Dr Manav took her with him when he set up his win clinic. The woman is a powerhouse. You feel entirely safe in her hands while she navigates getting heart tests and blood tests on the first day so they can establish whether it’s safe to operate. During the consult I did test Dr Safa Manav by asking him about additional procedures that I didn’t have much interest in and knew I didn’t really need . I wanted to see if the clinic were only interested in the money. He immediately advised me to not do these procedures , that they were unnecessary, and I didn’t need them. And In Fact advised me to never do one of the procedures at all as he could never see me ever needing it. This totally assured me of where the clinic and his priorities lie…with his patients and not with his bank account. I also wanted a dr who ensure that I looked natural as I do not like the over the top look of large lips or extra small nose and I could see that he is very much about keeping things natural. That wa also very important to me. But of course I understand that some patients love this unnatural look. He was to the point and clear in the consultation. I also had been considering hiring him to also remove old implants at a later stage so we also had a chat about that too. The morning of surgery I was told I was the only person he was operating on which was also hugely comforting . He came to check on me twice and assured me. The hospital is faultless. It’s like a five star hotel. I had a private room with en suite and my own nurse from Dr Manav as a well as the hospital nurses taking care. If I pressed the button they came immediately. And they would do constant regular checks on my during the 24 hours I was in the hospital. Even if drugs didn’t need to be administered they still came in to check on me like clockwork. I had low swelling and low pain, but I think each patient is different. By the evening of that surgery day I was walking around the corridors with no support and even able to watch a film. Which was totally unexpected. But of course I wouldn’t assume you would be the same as everyone heals differently. I am now back at the Antwell hotel. Each day Elif or her friend Busa come to check on me. The pics which they send back to the dr and check the dressings. And check I’ve remebered to take the daily drugs. A corner comes in daily and she even also asks did I eat something, did I take a walk. The hotel is an apartment hotel. I even have a washing machine and dryer and dishwasher . It’s spotlessly clean , there are nurses in the building and emergency pulls in every room. Smart tv, and controlled heating. There are restaurants , a pool , spa, library, cinema room, roof terrace and even an art room. The staff are amazing. My speaker charging lead broke and the concierge went out to fetch me a new lead. Within an hour. Because I didn’t feel strong enough to go walking around outside. Most of the guests here are patients so you meet people in the corridors , lift, cafe, but if you want privacy that’s also respected. There is a large mall just a five mins walk , it’s called Emaar mall. It’s a great mall. Two days after surgery I felt well enough to walk around in it for three hours alone. There are also a few cafes near the hotel. I have not even seen my operation results yet as I am still bandaged up. However from a professional point of view of the team, the cleanness , the way it’s run, the staff behaviour, the accomodation, and transport , I honestly cannot fault it. And I am able to make comparisons because I have been here before and done surgery in Istanbul. This by far outweighs my other experience. And my other experience was not a bad one at all. I also would like to say that the hospital staff were amazing. I live over seas and have experienced staff in hospitals in my 53 years in many countries. The staff seem to enjoy their work, they seem to truly care. Sadly i have not witnessed this in the uk on the nhs, in India, Cambodia, or in spain. In a world where so many people are chasing fame and fortune on the internet and not interested in normal jobs any more it has been so wonderful to witness people in their 20s who are in the care service industry , working hard and long hours and are enjoying it and doing an amazing job. I cannot be more grateful to witness that. They all deserve an award and far more recognition than they get. I will eventually write a secondary review when I have recovered , which will be about the results of the actual surgery. I have not been paid to write this review. I know no one at the Dr Manav clinic. This is an honest review of my own personal experience.
Elif was amazing Defenders back to you quickly. Hotel
Would have loved to have met other patients and gone for dinner etc

I am very satisfied with my results
I recently had a breast lift and augmentation using fat transfer (liposuction from the stomach area) performed by Dr. Safa. My experience was excellent, and I highly recommend him for breast augmentation. Logistics: 9/10 My Bookimed consultant was very helpful in connecting me with top surgeons for my case—Dr. Safa stood out among them all. Although my arrival in Turkey was delayed due to a late take-off, my arranged transport was prompt, picking up my sister and me within 15 minutes of clearing security. We were taken to Antwell Hotel, which was included in the surgery package and arranged by Dr. Safa’s office. The hotel was very comfortable, with great views and excellent provisions. The following day, I was taken to The Academic Hospital, which was beautiful, clean, and provided spectacular care. I felt very comfortable throughout. Dr. Safa met with me and swiftly walked me through the procedure. He was professional, informative, and attentive to my suggestions, though he clearly knows best! Janan was my post-care consultant—she was excellent. If you need clarification, she’s the one to ask, as Dr. Safa is understandably very busy. My only feedback is that I was provided a single room instead of the two-bed room I had expected. However, the bed was large, so it wasn’t an issue. Additionally, it would be beneficial if Dr. Safa’s office provided more in-depth post-care information, perhaps in a PDF document or short video. I recommend bringing a notepad to jot down important information. Quality of Care: 10/10 The hospital was beautiful and well-staffed. Every time I needed assistance, I received exceptional care. I spent one night at the hospital and was well looked after by the nurses. Afterward, I was released to the Antwell Hotel, where I received similar care from their in-hotel nurses. However, I recommend having a family member or friend with you for 24/7 care and supervision. Medications provided included antibiotics, pain relief, and antibiotic cream. A $100 drainage massage was also offered (optional, but recommended at some point during your recovery). The language barrier was minimal; most staff spoke good English, except for a few of the cleaning staff, who were nonetheless kind and excellent at their jobs. Results (So Far): 10/10 I am very satisfied with my results. I had a challenging case with over a 1.5-cup asymmetry, which has been corrected as much as possible. The results are beautiful and have likely exceeded my expectations. In Summary: I highly recommend Dr. Safa. He is a skilled plastic surgeon, particularly talented in breast augmentation.

The whole team was very supportive and service was excellent! I highly recommend Dr
I’m so happy that I decided to use bookimed and found my doctor Dr. Safa Manav through them. It was a tedious and time consuming process to find a doctor but bookimed made it easier. The coordinator Defne was the first person who contacted me. Defne is just extremely helpful and great! She’s absolutely an asset to his clinic. She’s always there whenever I have a question. Doctor Safa is so nice and down to earth and I felt very comfortable with him. I chose him because he is an expert and double board certified. The whole team was very supportive and service was excellent! I highly recommend Dr. Safa Manav’s clinic.
Everything! The whole experience is great!
My experienced with the pre operation was painful

I’m truly grateful for the outstanding care I received
I couldn’t have asked for a better team to take care of me during my procedure. The medical staff were not only highly skilled, but also incredibly kind, reassuring, and professional every step of the way. From pre-op to recovery, I felt completely supported and in safe hands. Their compassion and attention to detail made all the difference — I’m truly grateful for the outstanding care I received.
The kind lovely staff
Everything was great, however if I have to pick something, the food wasn’t the best

I would say life changing
My experience at the clinic and with Dr. Safa Manav has been truly exceptional. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel comfortable and cared for. The medical professionals were not only knowledgeable but also compassionate, taking the time to understand my concerns and tailor treatments to my needs. It has been a positive experience with remarkable results. I would say life changing. I highly recommend, for anyone who is seeking feeling confident!
The results!
