For 2 years I visit hospital, first of all I visited for radiation treatment and I totally appreciate the specialist Dr. Güner İpek Arslan and all her team. I used to go daily for treatment for 6 weeks so I can say they are really professional, kind, cooperative and respectful team. They deal with us as humans not cases. Now I become ok and I visit the hospital for follow up, Mri and CT every 3 months, also I can say that all the teams are really professional and I’m happy to get my treatments and follow up with this style of people.
Now when I totally trust Dr. İpek Arslan enough to ask her to recommend a ophthalmologist and dermatologist for me. I visited also the ophthalmologist dr. Muhsin Altınsoy and I appreciate his professionalism. Yet didn’t visit the dermatologist and I’ll share my experience after my visit next Monday.
To be noted I see there a department for international patients and many times I saw foreign patients with the hospital English and translators however I don’t know exactly about this service as I speak Turkish and I don’t need any assistance in contact with Turkish community.
As a conclusion I totally recommend this hospital for Turkish and foreigners.
I totally appreciate Dr. Güner İpek arslan and alllllll her team.
God bless you.

I had rhinoplasty at this hospital yesterday with OP Dr Metin Yildirim who selected this hospital because of the quality of service they provide for people with underlying health conditions. I was discharged this morning from the hospital so I stayed 1 night. I had a very good experience here and all the staff, nurses & doctors were amazing. Everyone had a smile on their face and nice to me. I don’t understand why there are so many negative reviews for this hospital, I was scared to come here after reading them but as soon as I arrived I had an amazing experience. Thank you to every person who helped care for me while I was there. I want to especially say thank you to Turkan for all her help, she spoke fluent English and was very kind and caring towards me. The staff in this hospital all work very hard and look after their patients very well. This is my own genuine experience here.

Sadness is felt upon Dr. Suna Cokmert's departure. We are all very disappointed to learn that she will be leaving your facility because my family member (aunt) is currently her patient. She is a very professional and talented DR who deserves more recognition and has improved the health of my aunt. The hospital will suffer a great loss by parting ways with such an amazing individual. I hope you can change your mind and do your hardest to convince her to stay.

First of all, I do not advice to make your surgeries in this hospital
And if I can give a review for this hospital, I must give (-100 stars) or worse
I did a plastic surgery in this hospital in 27/7/2018
I paid for this hospital 5000$ and I am refugee and I do not work and I do not have any money and the hospital know that
When I visit the doctor in this hospital, I showed him my body and the photo of a boy( that I wish to be like him)
The doctor said yes, I can make you as the photo
The doctor said your surgery is so easy
I paid the money for this hospital
The problems in my surgery are
1/the nipples are deformed
2/after the surgery, I told the doctor that my abdomen is not good, he told me after 2 months from the surgery, it will be as the photo of the boy
Now, it is 1 year and half and my body is deformed
3/the line in my chest and abdomen did not remove, the doctor told me that the line will hide after 6 months after the surgry
I was excited to live new life with my new body but the situation became worse
I suffer so much and my psychological situation is every bad because my body is uglier
Do you imagine the surgery took 9 hours and the result was so bad
