What patients say about Mammoplasty at Memorial Şişli Hospital
How convenient is the clinic location and access?
Patients consistently praise clinic locations as highly convenient and accessible. One noted their clinic was 'close to a huge shopping center and many cafes,' with metro just '10 minutes walk' away. Another appreciated having 'delicious chestnuts and fresh juice' right next to the clinic. The comprehensive transfer service gets particular praise—patients describe being supported 'from office to office, to the room, to the hotel' with seamless 'airport transfer to airport transfer' coordination. Some experienced language barriers with translators, though this didn't impact their overall positive experience. The logistics are described as 'excellent' with everything organized efficiently.

Everything was very much appreciated. From airport transfer to airport transfer. All questions were solved as quickly and efficiently as possible. The operation itself was perfect, the result exceeded expectations. I would also like to mention the interpreter Varvara, a very nice girl who is always on the phone and answers all questions.

I would like to share my experience about breast augmentation surgery performed at the Dr.Med.
Dr. clinic. Hakan Teymur, the surgeon who performed the operation, is a very attentive and tactful doctor. I completely trusted him and the result exceeded my expectations.
The clinic’s consultants are always in touch. They will answer all questions. Muhlise, Narmina, Semra, thank you very much for your work. The organization, transfer, accommodation are all excellent!
Now about the hospital where the operation was performed: Very clean, comfortable room. Special thanks to the night shift of doctors who were on duty the night after the operation. I don’t know your names, but I felt cared for despite the language barrier.
Will I contact Dr.Med again? Definitely Yes!

Upon arrival, we were met by a transfer, a very polite man) settled in the hotel. The next day we went to the clinic. The operation went quickly and the doctor Ece Kayafatlar has golden hands. Did everything I wanted❤️ Answered all my questions. After the operation, I went to the clinic for examination twice. The staff is very polite. The hospital is clean and warm. They really took their 5 * to the hotel, well, this is already according to their preferences. Our translator Elina was also very attentive and went to any of our proposals. We're flying back tomorrow. I recommend the clinic as well as the doctor.

My stay in the clinic was as comfortable as possible. There was constant support: from office to office, to the room, to the hotel, from the hotel, from the airport and back ... The only thing that bothered was that the translator was from Turkish into English and not into Russian)) But it seems that everything is fine )) Excellent service at the clinic, sympathetic and caring. Everything: from and to. The doctor from the first minute of meeting arranged and reassured. No embarrassment, not a single unanswered question. The room (and you won’t call it a ward) is comfortable. It is possible to stay overnight, for example, to a relative (there is a small couch). I also want to note that payment was made once upon arrival at the clinic, it was the amount specified in the contract and that I didn’t have to pay a dime anymore. Overall, highly recommend!

In the clinic, I liked absolutely everything! A professional surgeon is a master of his craft with tremendous experience and excellent skills, a very caring and educated staff, a good mental interpreter-assistant. The location is convenient, close to a huge shopping center and many cafes and eateries. Metro 10 minutes walk. Next to the clinic on the corner are delicious chestnuts and fresh juice. Experienced before the trip, but in vain. Eight days spent in Istanbul was not enough. The clinic is above all praise, the city is fabulous. 10 points out of 10 :)
How safe is the procedure?
Patients report feeling confident about mammoplasty safety in Turkey, with experienced surgeons leading procedures. One patient specifically chose Dr. Ergen Er for his '29 years' of experience and found their safety concerns were 'all unjustified' after the procedure. Medical staff provide attentive care with round-the-clock availability for patient questions. Clinics offer comprehensive post-operative monitoring with regular check-ups and proper wound care protocols. Some noted brief consultations with busy schedules, though the medical expertise remained solid. Patients describe feeling well-cared for throughout their stay, with proper facilities and professional medical oversight ensuring safe recovery.

I stayed at the clinic for 6 days, good conditions, separate room, 3 meals a day. The medical staff was always on the phone, they helped in any situation. I was surprised that manipulations with blood (taking analyses, treatment of stitches after surgery) are carried out without disposable gloves, for this a huge minus. Consultations with the doctor were also very fast, he was always in a hurry. I had a lot of questions, but half of them remained unanswered. He does his job, but especially does not explain or tell anything. For me this is also a disadvantage.

I was very careful in choosing everything, especially my doctor... In March 2023, my long-awaited operation to tighten the breast skin and install implants took place. In this case, I am talking about Dr. Ergen Er. I was attracted by his experience of more than 29 years. Advances in medicine. Upon arrival, I was convinced of the professionalism and attitude towards me as a patient. My coordinator Elvina was extremely attentive and competent in all matters that interested me. My fears were all unjustified! I recommend!
How effective are the treatment results?
Patients consistently report mammoplasty results that meet or exceed expectations in Turkey. One described being in 'pleasant shock' at how natural her breasts looked, while another said the 'result exceeded expectations.' Dr. Ergin Er receives particular praise, with patients calling him 'the best surgeon' and 'a master of his craft.' Results appear natural yet achieve desired size increases, with doctors carefully considering patient preferences during consultations. Patients describe outcomes as 'stunning' and 'awesome,' with many expressing they got exactly what they wanted and would recommend their surgeons to friends.

Ergin Er is the best surgeon. He is a master of his craft, the doctor speaks English, he worked for 4 years in the USA. Many thanks to him for a perfect job! Elvina is the best coordinator! Thank her very much. She always helped and organized everything. ❤️ I had a primary mammoplasty, Ergin took into account all my suggestions and gave me the maximum size I wanted! Elvina helped with payment and accompanied me everywhere in the clinic. The chamber is good, I really liked it. Thank God, the operation went perfectly and very easily. I also liked the hotel where I stayed for a week. Choose only Istanbul Aesthetic, I advise everyone

My name is Larisa. I live in Duisburg, Germany. I asked BOOKIMED for help with blepharoplasty. The coordinator Vladimir Andrievsky worked with me. He recommended the AESTETIK clinic to me. I decided to have surgery for the first time. I was very worried and afraid. Vladimir explained everything clearly. He answered all my questions politely and patiently. Advised professional Dr. ERGIH ER. The doctor is very attentive. I was provided with a translator, a girl named Elvina. The Aestetik clinic has very kind and attentive staff. Not for one minute I was not left unattended. I am very happy with the way my surgery was done. It's been almost 2 months. The seams are almost invisible. I am satisfied with my appearance. I am planning another operation in the future. Saved all phones. I will turn again to Vladimir. I want the operation to be carried out by Dr. Ergin Er. Very nice people who worked with me. Thank you very much.

I am very pleased with the clinic and the consultants girls, they are all smart, cool, the doctor chose the right breast size, everything is very beautiful, the ward is very comfortable, the food is delicious, the medical staff is very pleasant, I am very satisfied and will recommend to all my friends. Now I have awesome breasts .
How long is the recovery period?
Patients report mammoplasty recovery as manageable but requiring patience and support. One patient described it as 'not an easy task' but emphasized following doctor recommendations leads to excellent results. Most are discharged the next day after surgery, though having an escort proves helpful for basic activities like getting out of bed and daily care. Some noted brief consultations with doctors during recovery visits, though medical support remained available throughout. Recovery typically involves about a month of careful healing, with patients saying 'you need to suffer for a month and wow, you with beautiful breasts!' Ongoing support includes month-long translator contact for questions.

Many thanks to the Bookimed platform! I decided to have a mastopexy, wrote, and immediately received an answer. I sent photos and the name of the doctor I chose myself (by reading comments on various pages on the Internet and looking at the work) and received a response from the doctor a few days later with the estimated cost. The price already included everything (transfer from the airport to/from the hotel with breakfast, stay at the clinic + the operation itself, linen, translator, transfer between the clinic and the hotel). Fortunately, you could take an escort with you. My sister came with me. After the operation, I was glad that I was not flying alone. The next day after the operation I was discharged. This is where help was needed: getting out of bed, bringing food to the hotel, washing, etc. My sister's stay was free. After arriving home, the translator remained in touch for another month (until there were no more questions left). My doctor was Mr. Ergin Er. A professional in his field and simply a charismatic man :-) I am writing this comment a month after the operation. I'm happy with the result! Everything went as I had imagined: I was calm and completely relied on the doctor and his experience. (before making the decision, of course, I re-read everything about this type of operation, implants and risks). Rehabilitation, of course, is not an easy task, but if necessary, then you have to be patient!! That’s what I did, following the doctor’s recommendations. In general, you need to suffer for a month and wow, you with beautiful breasts! I continue to apply contratubex to the seams, and every time I admire my breasts in the mirror! I wish all girls and women to remain beautiful!

I had surgery at this clinic and I am very satisfied. I had 3 operations at once. I had a breast (lift and implant), rhinoplasty and blepharoplasty. I am very satisfied with the result. I would like to note the professional approach of the staff and the clinic as a whole. Wonderful service, amazing Dr Aykut Gok and attentive nurses. The result is stunning, recovery is not long and there was always support. Special thanks to the managers who accompanied me 24/7 - Muhlise and Akilay.

The surgeon dr ozturk was fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable and inspired confidence immediately
My biggest worry was what recovery would feel like this time, especially after having my old implants for well over ten years. It turned out to be about the same as my first surgery. The surgeon dr ozturk was fantastic, friendly, knowledgable and inspired confidence immediately performing a position adjustment and implant replacement, though it's still hard to compare the final result as surgery was only 5 days ago. The hospital facility was clean and private room was great. My main issue was with the general staff support, which could have been more attentive, having said that whenever I called they attended immediately and were kind. Despite that, the medical care itself was solid, and I'm satisfied with the outcome.
Translator amazing as was Dr Ozturk, friendly, professional, knowledgeable. Co-ordination of transport, Appointments etc smooth
Hospital staff could’ve been more proactive eg not leaving things out of reach, ensuring drinks etc on hand, although having said that they immediately attended any call bells and were kind, I just didn’t want to trouble them more than I needed to.

I’m very grateful
My biggest worry was that my nose would look unnatural and that the result wouldn’t live up to my expectations. Now, even though I’m still recovering, I can see that I was worrying for nothing. They removed a small bump, and the bridge of my nose is straighter, just as I’d hoped. I’d also like to mention that the tip of my nose now looks more refined. My breathing has improved too. I think ultrasonic piezorhinoplasty was the right choice. The whole team, from the staff to the surgeon, were very attentive and professional, which helped me feel at ease. I’m very grateful.
We loved everything; the organisation was top-notch. A special thank you to our coordinator, Valentina. They helped us sort everything out and were always on hand. Thank you so much 🙏🏻❗️

I’m so very glad I had the best doctor and best care
My arrival at Istanbul airport was smooth and efficient. I was met and transported to my hotel. My hotel was lovely.
Transportation from hotel to hospitals on time and efficient.
I met my advocate at international patient area, she had everything under control, all tests lined up and doctor appointments were fabulous. My advocate translated to my language at every appointment.
I’m very happy with the service and I felt very “looked after”.
My outcome is excellent and I’m so very glad I had the best doctor and best care.
About Bookimed service
Bookimed lovely to deal with. Reactive to my questions and concerns. Contacted me after surgery to inquire how I was doing.
Very efficient with transfers.

Being asked to pay extra costs at the last minute was deeply frustrating, souring the entire process. The surgeon was fantastic, and the clinic staff were good. The results speak for themselves; 15 days out, my chest width has perfect proportions and there’s great muscle separation with the medium Polytech implants. But the financial surprise was a significant issue. My advice is this: If you have fat in the chest area and are getting pectoral implants, ensure that gynaecomastia fat removal is negotiated in your final price! You can’t just add an implant without removing excess fat. Confirm with your consultant that this is included, because I did this and was still asked to pay more last minute. Also, the accommodations that they put you in are claimed to be prestige accommodations. The first few days two nights that I arrived. I was put in the most dreadful hotel room that you could ever imagine. I was also informed where I was staying at the very last minute I would advise that you get confirmation of where your accommodations will be and do your research far in advance to ensure that you’ll be staying somewhere acceptable I had to be moved to a new hotel room after completing for days while being ghosted - then the day of my surgery after being operated on I was told to bring my luggage to the hospital and had to check into a new hotel room post Surgery in pain and out of it. Also make sure that whoever your consultant is is readily available to attend to any issues I was ghosted for 48 hours by mine. She had a personal incident in her defence, however, if you’re in a foreign country by yourself, there should be someone to attend to you 24 hours a day regardless of personal incidents time or day somebody should’ve been available as a backup. In summary, it’s very important to make sure exactly what is covered and what is not I was told that everything would be covered except for my flight one in fact, all that was covered was the surgery breakfast hotel accommodations, which were originally terrible and transportation back-and-forth to hospital airport and follow up appointments. In reality, only breakfast was covered. You had to get your own lunch and dinner. Any medications that are prescribed post surgery, including compression vests, or any extra costs are to be covered by the patient and only told at the last minute. It is not in fact, all inclusive. It’s all inclusive in hotel, including breakfast and transportation. Everything else is on you to cover yourself.
I loved the doctor and the translator that I dealt with - Memorial Hospital is exceptional. Very clean and prestigious. Feeling definitely felt like I was in the right place, especially considering I live in Canada and our healthcare is free but very safe.
Don’t be fooled into being told that you’re going to be put in luxury accommodations. Do your research ask what hotel you were going to be accommodated in long before your arrival and READ the reviews. I was told at the very last minute where I was staying, and it ended up being one of the most dreadful hotel rooms. I have ever set foot in in my entire life. In addition at the last minute as I was about to board my flight to come to Istanbul, I was informed of extra costs for fat removal in my procedure, which had already been negotiated months prior. Not a very good situation to inform a patient of extra costs at the last minute literally before boarding my flight to come there. I proceeded to board and figured that this would’ve been resolved by the time I landed only to arrive the day of my surgery and be asked once again for these extra costs to be paid. This was a terrible and horrible experience not something anybody wants to go through minutes before they’re about to be taken into the operating room. Definitely left a bitter taste in my mouth. The only thing that I can say that was wonderful and positive about this experience was the doctor. He was phenomenal. The translator that dealt with me. She was also phenomenal, but the communication with this organization throughout all of these issues and problems was terrible at one point I was ghosted for 48 hours with no responses from the team as to how to proceed with this whole extra cost situation.

I honestly had an amazing experience
Having breast reduction and uplift surgery is something that I had wanted for numerous years but due to underlying health conditions I knew it wouldn't be straight forward.
When I eventually made the decision I couldn't have made a better decision.
From the initial contact and liason s from Bookimed to the transfers, hotel, hospital tests, surgery and post surgery support was more than I could have asked for.
The interpreter Bayza was exceptional and made me feel relaxed throughout the process. The hospital staff and especially my surgeon Dr Kadriye who was so friendly and professional throughout. I honestly had an amazing experience.
All my health issues were taken very seriously and accommodated for by giving me the relevant tests and aftercare.
I would advise from my personal experience to take clothes that button or unzip after surgery .And my must have item would be my neck cushion that I took with me for after surgery for when you have to sleep upright.
Memorial Sisli was outstanding. And I am so happy with outcome. Thankyou all .
The photos were from the morning of surgery and the 7th day after.
The reassurance,confidence, understanding and professionalism of surgeon.
And of course the outcome!
The food on the ward.

When preparing for a planned operation, it is necessary to consult specialised specialists at your own expense to evaluate the results of tests and to further determine whether the operation can be performed according to medical indicators. In addition, in the postoperative period, to determine the patient's condition, exclude the risk of infection, etc. - tests and consultations are paid for. And only with a separate agreement with the marketing department, some of them can be taken into account as planned.

The surgery went well and I’m happy with the results so far
I liked my doctor and translator. The doctor had a kind and reassuring energy to him. There were two things that bothered me about the experience.One was having to wait several hours past my scheduled consultation with him after a 16 hr travel period after being brought directly to the hospital. The second was being told they may have to harvest cartilage from my ear or rib minutes before my surgery after being told they would not have to do that during the consultation. That really stressed me out. They wound up not having to do that but it made me feel like they had not prepared properly. That being said, the surgery went well and I’m happy with the results so far. I’m posting this only a week and a half from my surgery date but so far, so good.
Overall, it was saving a substantial amount of money for a good result that I liked the most. It is a great overall value.
The hotel was not so comfortable and communication could’ve been better. However, the results are what matters and given the overall price, I don’t feel like one should complain too much.
About Bookimed service
I only received a serious reply and engagement from one clinic. The others didn’t bother replying or did not reply to my questions.

The surgeon made my nose look beautiful
The only problem was with the interpreters at the hospital itself. There was supposed to be one girl, they said she was not there, then another girl came, and at the discharge there was another girl. And they took turns asking me "what did that interpreter say" or "what did that interpreter say to you". The hospital itself is very big and reading, on the first day a young man from the staff came up to the clinic and clearly by my running look understood that you need help.
Good room, I was with a support group in the form of my mum, she was fed three times a day, had a place to sleep and a nice bathroom. The surgeon made my nose look beautiful, and she was unflappable, in a good way.)
