"We are very happy with the doctor Sinan and Zahida curator, they are very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable people

The curator sent us a list of hotels with whom Anadolu cooperates under the contract (discount for Anadolu patients), made a reservation and organized a transfer from the airport to the hotel, made an appointment with doctors, for tests, PET CT, etc. and sent us a schedule for November 8. We arrived on November 7, we were met by a transfer from Anadolu and taken to the hotel. The next day, November 8, we went to Anadolu, we were met in the hall by the curator Zahida and the translator Muhamed. Our doctor Sinan.

We made an appointment at the clinic at 15:00, and in the end we got to the doctor at 16:50. There is no clear organization in terms of admission. But the doctor examined me well, did all the research and prescriptions. The only problem is waiting for an appointment, with a patient of 4 degrees of oncology it takes a long time, the patient is nervous. The main coordinator himself does not get in touch, so he is loaded with other clients. We need to organize work better !! Who really answered promptly and worked is Inga from Bookimed !! Thank you very much

• 244 reviews

The approach of professionals in Memorial Hospital differs from other hospitals by precisely planned post-surgical monitoring: monthly control of the general and local statuses during first 6 months, full diagnostics every 3 months afterwards, in a year PET-CT every 6 months, in 5 years – one full diagnostics per annum.

The clinical oncologists also develop the individual monitoring rhythm while a patient is discharging from the Hospital.

Memorial applies both traditional treatment methods of stomach cancer and newest medical technologies. There are only a few hospitals in the world that apply the newest high-tech methods of cancer and metastases treatment.

Memorial Oncological Center applies both traditional treatment methods of stomach cancer (surgical, drug and radiation therapy), and the methods of interventional radiology and brand new methods like DaVinci Surgical System, NanoKnife and CyberKnife. The successful treatment of stomach cancer means the combination of chemotherapy and different methods of treatment, as well as the certain sequence of their application.

We went to the clinic for rectal adecarcenoma. Bookimed coordinator Ekaterina promptly and professionally helped organize the trip. Upon arrival at the airport, we were met by a car from Liv Hospital, taken to the booked hotel. Each transfer from the hotel to the clinic and back was carried out practically without delay. The examination took place within the agreed time and price, and a course of treatment was prescribed. What will be the results of treatment, time will tell

Everything went quite well....first of all, of course, thanks to the girl Natalia Bruyaka, who was always in touch and helped solve all the questions that I had along the way...Thank you very much to her for her timely and quick help on throughout the entire period... Everything was organized well... we were met at the airport, a VIP transfer, a black Mercedes, the driver, unfortunately, I don’t remember his name - a great guy, just an ace, took him to the hotel... Everything in the hotel super, 5 stars, good finishing, excellent staff, we were accommodated on the 8th floor, with a beautiful view of the city.... The next day we arrived at the clinic... They paid there, and without delay, they invited us to the operating room... The team is excellent , young guys and girls, cheerful and relaxed, (they even sang songs during the transplant)... the transplant went quite quickly, they got it done in 5 hours, because the people know their stuff, they are all true professionals, both the doctor and the guy, who drew the hair line, and the girls who were assistants....Everything is at the highest level..The transplant itself is painless, only at the very beginning, when the painkiller was administered, it was a little painful, but it lasted about 10 minutes.. In general, I am satisfied with the transplant itself , I hope that the result will not be good, we’ll see in a year.. Then we were taken back to the hotel, and I spent that day in the room, did not go anywhere.... The next day I had a rest day, and the hotel staff organized a tour for us to the historical center of Istanbul... We had a great time there, and a day later they took me back to the clinic, showed me and washed my hair, and the ace driver took us to the airport... Bottom line: without much strain, I had a hair transplant and my wife and I had a great time in Istanbul, trying different dishes, making excursions and having the opportunity to shop... Thank you very much to those people who organize such tours and carry out such work... I am very grateful to them...

Top factors to choose stomach cancer treatment center

To pick one of the best stomach cancer treatment hospitals, pay attention to the following tips:

  • Hospitals accreditation. World-class medical facilities have multiple certificates for a high level of medical services.
  • Specialist’s experience. Be sure a chosen doctor specializes in your case and has a huge experience in stomach cancer treatment. Check doctors’ CV on our website. A good specialist has a lot of positive reviews.
  • Success rate. Some medical centers may provide their statistics in patients treatment. Find whether is a success rate in your cases.
  • Medical equipment. All hospitals have advanced medical equipment as the da Vinci Robotic System.
  • Patients’ reviews. Read all reviews of people who have already undergone treatment in a hospital you are interested in.

What options are used in the best stomach cancer treatment centers?

Surgery.

Surgical intervention is performed for patients with stomach cancer stages 1-3. In top stomach cancer hospitals, specialists carry out the following types of surgeries:

  • Endoscopic submucosal dissection. The removal of a tumor located in the mucosa of the stomach. The procedure is performed through small incisions.
  • Gastrectomy. A doctor may perform laparoscopic or open procedure depending on a stomach cancer stage. Gastrectomy can be partial or total one. Such a surgery is indicated when a tumor is located in the upper part of the stomach or when cancer spreads to other organs.
  • Partial gastric resection. Surgery is performed when a gastric tumor is located in the lower part of the stomach.

Chemotherapy. Specialists indicate chemo drugs to reduce a tumor before an operation. Chemotherapy after surgery destroys cancer cells and prevents the relapse. For advanced stages, chemo is used to suppress the symptoms and improve the patient’s quality of life.

Radiotherapy. Doctors at stomach cancer treatment centers provide radiotherapy before surgery to reduce the tumor size. After the operation, radiotherapy is carried out to destroy the rest of the malignant cells.

HIPEC (“hot chemotherapy”). Such type of chemo is provided for refractory stomach cancer with metastasis in the abdomen. During HIPEC, a doctor uses drugs heated to 42°C. Due to high temperature, chemo penetrates the damaged tissues and destroys more cancer cells than conventional chemotherapy.

Immunotherapy. When traditional options do not work, doctors prescribe immunotherapy which boosts the patient’s immunity to kill cancer cells. Such a treatment does not cause severe side effects.

Targeted therapy. Such drugs block the growth and dividing of the cancer cells without damaging healthy ones. This therapy is used if diagnostics have shown the genetic mutation of a tumor.
