I am very grateful to the Bokimed team for their care, organisation and truly individual approach
I turned to Bokimed to organise a trip to Turkey for medical diagnostics. The company proved to be a reliable partner: they helped me at every stage - from preparing the trip to accompanying me on the spot. Thanks to the attentive customer service, all issues were resolved quickly and professionally. The diagnostics were carried out with high quality, and I felt supported throughout the entire process.

"He is very happy that he finally got rid of the cancer using the da Vinci robot
The Medipol Clinic in Istanbul was recommended to me by bookimed specialists. I was very pleased with the additional service. We were met with my father at the airport and taken to the guest house, which was provided by the hospital free of charge, as well as free 3 meals a day, not only for my father, but also for me. Every day a car came for us to take us to the clinic, as well as to take us back. We were provided with the services of an interpreter. Translator Murat turned out to be a very good person, he told everything and helped absolutely everything. operas atsiyu. Everything went fine, he is very happy that he finally got rid of the cancer using the da Vinci robot. The staff after the operation behaved very courteously and neatly.

My attending physician Ilker Tinay performed the operation brilliantly
For a long time I have chosen a clinic for performing robotic nerve-sparing surgery according to the Da Vinci method. In Kazakhstan, such operations are not performed. I wanted to go to Germany or Israel, negotiated with them, but due to covid restrictions I had to choose Turkey. And I did not regret it at all. From the proposed options I chose the Anadolu clinic. After 6 days I was already in Istanbul. The entire organization and coordination of treatment was at the highest level. For which I am very grateful to coordinator Eliza. She was always in touch and could be contacted for any question. Special thanks to the translators Zahida and Muhammad. They were very attentive and responsive, they were always interested in my condition and were in touch. Now directly about the treatment. After examination by an oncourologist and providing him with all the examinations at home, in 2 days I was scheduled for an operation. No extra examinations and money spinning were appointed. My attending physician Ilker Tinay performed the operation brilliantly. The operation lasted for about 5 hours, under general anesthesia, but by the evening I was already forced to walk, accompanied by nurses. And after another 2 days I was able to check out. In the department, everyone from the doctor to the orderlies performed their work competently and professionally. I would also like to say about the conditions. A separate room of about 20 sq. m with a shower, toilet, pull-out chair for an accompanying person, TV, refrigerator and even a safe. (My hotel room was worse). After I was discharged, the doctor examined me three more times and gave me recommendations. And now after 2 weeks I feel almost completely healthy and there are no side effects (although according to statistics this is possible and quite often). I would like to thank my attending physician Ilker Tinay for his qualified and attentive approach to my treatment. As a result, the cost of examination and treatment was significantly different for the better from the same in Europe or Israel. Thanks to everyone who took part in this.

Everything was at a very high level
Good afternoon. In October 2019, my dad (who needed to undergo a Pat-CT examination with gallium 68 (psma) visited the Medipol University Hospital. The impressions are different from the coordinators and the hospital itself. Everything is very coordinated and thought out. The coordinators "led" us starting from Ukraine and ending with serving in Ukraine. So I really want to thank Anna, Olga, Zulfiya, Elmira, Babadzhan and others for their attention and support. At the hospital we underwent a qualified examination, consultation (though we had to pass additional tests, which were are necessary for the doctor) and the recommendations of the necessary doctors (the translator Elmira was always there, so we understood everything). Everything was at a very high level. The next day, after the examination, we received all the documents in Turkish and within a week they sent me translations in English and Russian languages by e-mail. After 3 months, my dad and I plan to fly for re-examination. I really hope that this time the team of coordinators will also work 100%! Guys! Thank you very much!

"The only thing that I wanted to pay attention
Мі біли in the clinic Medipol in May 2019 on examination. The level of medical care of the Clinic, the medical staff, we really liked, we are satisfied. In the hotel, where mі lived, a very functional room, everything you need, well fed. Bіli problems with bed linen: in any way we could not get a full set. The transfer is organized remarkably, the only thing is that upon arrival it is difficult to expect more people, especially a sick person. Bookimed a separate THANKS for the information and the provision of travel support services. Accompanying Bilo at the highest level. After all, they felt the attention and support, because they were calm. The only thing that I wanted to pay attention. The trip was prepared for several months, I took air tickets, and I found out that I needed to prepay on the eve of the flight. In addition, mi bіli two days in total. And they came to the oncologist between the patients, for some reason they did not register. And the investigation, for which mi went, we were appointed on the day of departure, literally in front of the plane. We do not know where the failure occurred. But, on the whole, we are satisfied with the result of mi and plan to go there again. P.S. I want to mention the quality of the translation of Babacan. Brilliantly!

The benevolent staff really helped make this experience less painful in all respects
My dad, radiation therapy, 40 sessions, about 2 months of stay in Istanbul were treated in the clinic. It's still early to speak about the results, therefore the review is exclusively about the process (!) For now. The choice helped to make bookimed, and I highly recommend using this excellent service. As a user, I would like to name the most basic plus. First and foremost, it is time saving, and in some cases it is equivalent to the preservation of health and life. And what is important, without costs for the patient, there is simply no payment for the company's service. Moreover, service coordinators are a huge resource for patients. We had Konstantin, and we are very grateful for the help and the choice of the best medical solution (at the price / quality / reputation of the doctor / clinic) and great help in solving logistical issues. When we have to deal with "medical tourism", there are no tourism patients for the patients there: (In addition to the medical problem, there are many practical, financial, coordination issues. It is important to have support on the side of the patient, we are very grateful. Now about the clinic: in general, the clinic liked, very modern and good equipment (so it was chosen), a good price-quality ratio. . From the pros: the doctor radiologist and the staff of the radiological department were attentive and in matters of medicine, and just a relationship. 40 sessions are 40 visits to the clinic, it is difficult, both physically and morally. The benevolent staff really helped make this experience less painful in all respects. I will not write much about the interior of the clinic, but for whom the aesthetics are important, yes, everything is excellent, modern, clean, often more like a hotel. As elsewhere, there is a large team of translators. To communicate with doctors used English directly, there certainly are many advantages. But all 40 sessions and not only were always assisted by translators in communicating with junior honey. personnel, coordination issues, medical records to the doctor, analyzes, transfers, etc. From the minuses: The clinic is in a very expensive and difficult physically accessible area (on a hill). Despite the fact that we lived side by side (significantly overpaying compared to other areas of Istanbul), we had to use motor transport every day. For a short stay, this is not a problem, but when a longer period is still an inconvenience. Some translators of the clinic introduced the category of "minuses" of the clinic. People are different, qualification, too, but it was still in a significant minority (our main interpreter was both professional and human). Again in the minority (!), But for the objectivity to mention, some doctors offered super expensive tests in very standard situations. For example, oh, well, if you want, in addition to the X-ray, we can do another CT scan (when coughing), which besides doubtful honey. values ​​(not to mention money) was recently and so done. Again, our main doctor is very intelligible and enthusiastically explained the essence of the treatment, the expected effect, side effects, prescribed drugs on time to eliminate them, which of course, most important! As a conclusion, the minuses will always and everywhere, but in general, from our experience, we are satisfied with the process of treatment in the LIV hospital. Thank you hospital and bukimed team.

Expert Overview about Prostate cancer Treatment in Turkey

These FAQs come from real patients seeking medical assistance through Bookimed. Answers are given by experienced medical coordinators and trusted clinic representatives.

What is the success rate for prostate cancer treatment in Turkey?

Prostate cancer treatment in Turkey shows a 5-year survival rate of 90% to 99% for early-stage cases. High success stems from JCI-accredited centers using the da Vinci XI robotic system. These technologies achieve 95% cancer-free margins while preserving critical nerve functions.

  • Robotic surgery: Advanced systems report a 95% success rate for clear margins in early cases.
  • Radiation efficacy: Techniques like IMRT and VMAT show long-term cure rates of approximately 89%.
  • HIFU outcomes: Minimally invasive ultrasound therapy reaches success rates of 98% for localized tumors.
  • Functional preservation: Nerve-sparing robotic techniques preserve erectile function in up to 90% of patients.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data shows a strong correlation between surgeon volume and recovery quality. At Memorial Şişli Hospital, surgeons like Dr. Murat Binbay have performed 600+ robotic procedures. This high volume is why Turkish clinics often achieve 97% urinary control rates, matching the best outcomes in the US or Europe.

Patient Consensus: Patients note that reaching undetectable PSA levels at the one-year mark is common. Many emphasize the importance of reviewing MRI scans with Turkish specialists before traveling to confirm the surgical approach.

Will the treatment cause impotence or urinary incontinence?

Prostate cancer treatments in Turkey utilize nerve-sparing robotic techniques to minimize risks of impotence and urinary incontinence. While surgery and radiation carry inherent risks, advanced methods significantly improve recovery. Most patients regain urinary control within 3 to 6 months through specialized pelvic floor rehabilitation protocols.

  • Nerve-sparing technique: Surgeons preserve delicate nerves controlling erections during robotic-assisted prostatectomy.
  • Robotic precision: The da Vinci system allows for high-accuracy maneuvers in narrow pelvic areas.
  • Incontinence recovery: Approximately 85% to 90% of men regain full urinary continence within six months.
  • Alternative therapies: Non-surgical options like HIFU or NanoKnife offer lower risks for eligible patients.

Bookimed Expert Insight: High-volume robotic specialists like Dr. Murat Binbay, who has performed over 600 surgeries, report better functional outcomes for patients. Data shows that choosing a JCI-accredited center like Anadolu Medical Center, which is affiliated with Johns Hopkins, ensures access to integrated post-operative rehabilitation. These specialized programs often combine surgery with early-stage pelvic therapy to accelerate the return of normal physical functions.

Patient Consensus: Patients note that while the first few months are challenging, sticking to physical therapy helps regain control quickly. Many emphasize that choosing an experienced surgeon like Dr. Ilker Tinay led to a faster recovery with minimal side effects.

How long is the recovery period after surgery?

Recovery after prostate cancer surgery in Turkey typically involves a 2 to 4 day hospital stay. Patients usually return to light activities within 2 weeks. Full recovery of continence and erectile function generally takes 3 to 12 months. Minimally invasive robotic techniques significantly accelerate initial healing times.

  • Hospital stay: Expect 2 to 4 days for monitoring after robotic da Vinci surgery.
  • Initial recovery: Most patients can fly home approximately 5 to 7 days post-operation.
  • Activity resumption: Walking begins on day 1; driving is safe after 2 weeks.
  • Long-term healing: Nerve regeneration and full pelvic muscle control take 3 to 12 months.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Our data shows a trend where Turkish centers like Anadolu Medical Center bundle 4 nights of 4-star hotel stay into robotic surgery packages. This is not just for comfort. This extra week in Istanbul allows surgeons to remove the catheter and confirm you are voiding properly before you board a long-haul flight.

Patient Consensus: Patients note that staying in Istanbul for a full week post-op is vital for peace of mind. Many emphasize starting Kegel exercises immediately after catheter removal to dry up faster.

Can I fully recover from prostate cancer after treatment in Turkey?

Patients achieve high recovery rates for prostate cancer in Turkey through advanced robotic surgery and targeted therapies. Success rates for early-stage cases reach 100% at top centers. Procedures like the da Vinci robotic prostatectomy minimize side effects while maximizing long-term survival outcomes.

  • Success rates: Early-stage cases show nearly 100% survival after specialized treatment.
  • Technology: Clinics utilize the da Vinci robotic system for precise nerve-sparing surgery.
  • Advanced diagnostics: Nuclear medicine tools like PSMA PET/CT ensure accurate cancer staging.
  • Specialized expertise: Expert surgeons often perform over 600 robotic urology-oncology procedures.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Clinical data shows a significant price-to-value gap between Istanbul and other hubs. Premium robotic packages at Anadolu Medical Center, priced around $20,000–$27,000, include 3–4 days of hospitalization. In contrast, Memorial Bahçelievler offers similar technology for approximately $16,500 but excludes accommodation. If you require a longer recovery period, choosing a package with bundled hotel stays often prevents unexpected lodging costs.

Patient Consensus: Patients report feeling healthy just 2 weeks after robotic surgery with Dr. Ilker Tinay at Anadolu Medical Center. Many emphasize that the courteous staff and high-quality diagnostics made them feel supported throughout the entire process.

How do I choose the best hospital?

Select the best hospital for prostate cancer treatment in Turkey by verifying JCI accreditation and the availability of the da Vinci XI robotic system. Prioritize centers with multidisciplinary oncology teams and surgeons who have performed over 600 robotic procedures to ensure optimal surgical outcomes.

  • Hospital accreditation: Choose facilities with JCI or OECI certifications like Anadolu Medical Center.
  • Technology access: Confirm the availability of da Vinci robots and PET/CT for staging.
  • Surgeon expertise: Verify if specialists like Dr. Ilker Tinay hold international board memberships.
  • International rankings: Look for clinics ranked in the global top 10 by MTQUA.

Bookimed Expert Insight: While many focus on the total price, the real value in Turkish oncology is the hospital stay duration. For example, Anadolu Medical Center includes 4 days of hospitalization in their $27,000 robotic package. This longer stay is vital for monitoring immediate post-op recovery compared to clinics offering shorter 1-night stays.

Patient Consensus: Patients note it is essential to have a dedicated interpreter to understand pathology reports. Many emphasize that choosing robotic surgery significantly shortened their recovery time and provided a better overall experience.

What support services are provided for international patients?

Turkish medical centers provide comprehensive clinical and logistical support for international prostate cancer patients. Services typically include dedicated multilingual coordinators, JCI-accredited care protocols, and all-inclusive packages. These bundles often cover private hospital rooms, local transportation, and luxury accommodations to ensure a seamless treatment experience.

  • Care coordination: Dedicated personal assistants manage scheduling, clinical triage, and physician communication.
  • Language assistance: Hospitals provide 24/7 access to medical translators for English, Arabic, and Russian.
  • Travel logistics: Packages frequently include VIP airport-to-hotel transfers and medical visa application support.
  • Accommodation services: Many plans bundle 3–5 nights in 4-star or 5-star hotels near clinics.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data shows a major value gap between diagnostic and surgical packages. While diagnostic check-ups around $900 often exclude logistics, robotic prostatectomy packages at centers like Anadolu Medical Center or Memorial Bahçelievler Hospital typically include 3–5 hotel nights and VIP transfers. Choosing these bundled surgical options can save patients significant stress and additional local travel costs.

Patient Consensus: Patients frequently highlight that having a WhatsApp coordinator and on-site translator makes navigating complex tests like PET-CT scans much easier. Many note that the attentive staff and pre-arranged hotel stays allow them to focus entirely on recovery after surgery.
