"Well, in general, I am very pleased
Anadolu is a great clinic. The level of doctors is very high. Fresh equipment, pleasant translators and approach to patients - there is nothing bad to say. From weak links I can only select coordinators. Here everything is not always good. Well, in general, I am very pleased. Treated oncology there. Seen how many guys pulled. For radiation therapy definitely there!

Prof. Dr. Ahmet Hilmi Kaya is a professor of neurosurgery at Anadolu Medical Center in Turkey. He specializes in functional neurosurgery and deep brain stimulation. Dr. Kaya received the Aysima Altınok Thesis Award from the Turkish Neurosurgery Society in 2009.

Specialization and Surgical Focus

Dr. Kaya treats conditions affecting the brain and spine. His primary clinical focus includes functional and stereotactic neurosurgery. He performs deep brain stimulation – a surgical treatment that uses implanted electrodes – to treat Parkinson’s disease and essential tremors.

He treats various oncological and structural disorders, such as:

  • Skull base and brain tumors, including glioblastoma and meningioma
  • Spinal tumors and spinal cord abscesses
  • Spinal stenosis and spinal slippage
  • Cervical and lumbar herniated discs
  • Vascular pathologies of the central nervous system

Dr. Kaya uses instrumentation and microdiscectomy for spinal stabilization. He also performs stereotactic biopsies – a minimally invasive procedure to sample brain tissue. Additionally, he performs shunt surgeries to treat hydrocephalus, which is the buildup of fluid in the brain.
