I truly recommend the clinic and Dr
I had my surgery with Dr. Aydinol and the team at the clinic, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the very beginning, they took the time to plan the procedures carefully and align them with my expectations, which gave me a lot of confidence. Dr. Aydinol was very attentive, always guiding me through the process and patiently responding to all of my additional questions. The clinic also made my stay stress-free by arranging accommodation and transportation, so I didn’t have to worry about the logistics of the trip. I’m still in the healing phase, but the results already look promising, and I can’t wait to see the final outcome. I truly recommend the clinic and Dr. Aydinol for their professionalism, care, and attention to detail.

Dr Hakan in particular, he was very attentive, friendly and open, explained everything and took care of us
I am grateful to bookmed for helping me choose a clinic. Everything that was promised was fulfilled in full! We were met and organised everything very efficiently in terms of time. The interpreter Akilai was very good, she solved all our queries and questions very quickly and was available 24/7. Dr Hakan - hair transplant and Dr Ibrahim Renoseptoplasty are very competent. I would like to mention Dr Hakan in particular, he was very attentive, friendly and open, explained everything and took care of us...The doctors did a great job and now everything depends on how carefully their recommendations will be followed during the rehabilitation period.

The transfer, the hotel, the doctor, the nurses; it was all really good! 😊
Honestly, the experience was okay. I have been in Istanbul three times for medical surgery, and this was the one who I liked less. The transfer, the hotel, the doctor, the nurses; it was all really good! 😊The main problem was in the guide we had. She didn’t speak good english, she was always on her phone and acted like we were not there. When we asked questions, she didn’t know the answers. In my older experiences, the organizer/communicator knew EVERYTHING! The were empathetic and were really friendly. They were ready for any type of question. This time, i was really disappointed. Besides that, there was a lack of information. They send us home and they gave us some Basic Information on what to do, but Information abouth the wounds, how to take care of them, or how to take the stitches out; the didn’t say anything. So the experience was good! 👍🏼 but it could have been better.
The nurses. The hotel‘s staff and food! The doctor
The communication. The organisation. The lack of information

Dr
The Bookimed platform was very easy to use and made the whole process smooth. I was kept in contact via WhatsApp at all times, and any questions I had were answered quickly. They continued to check in and support me even after I returned home, which I really appreciated. Dr. Mustafa Aydinol was excellent – attentive, diligent, and thorough in explaining everything clearly. The hospital and staff were all lovely, making me feel comfortable and well cared for throughout my stay. Although I am happy with the outcome, I am still sore and bruised, but I will be more than happy to share photos at a later date.
What I liked most was the constant communication and support from start to finish, and the excellent care from Dr. Mustafa Aydinol and the hospital staff.
What I disliked the most was the discomfort and bruising during recovery, although I understand this is part of the healing process

I’m giving five stars for Dr
I’m giving five stars for Dr. Ianus’ work because his surgical work is truly remarkable. Dr. Ianus is kind, gentle, extremely professional, and meticulous in everything he does. The person who supported me through BookMed was Tetiana, and she was absolutely flawless. From the very beginning, I felt guided and safe. From Dr. Ianus’ team in Istanbul, Lara was the one assisting me — and she is a very warm, empathetic person who was always available to help with whatever I needed. I also want to highlight the hotel offered by the team, Modus Hotel. The staff there were very helpful and attentive, especially after I returned from surgery. Even though I traveled alone, I could count on their kindness and support throughout. That said, I want to leave a sincere piece of advice: if you’re planning to have a more extensive surgery — like I did (involving multiple areas) — be aware that the first two days can be quite challenging, both physically and emotionally. In such cases, I strongly recommend that you are not alone at the hospital. Having someone with you can make a big difference. With this, I leave my heartfelt recommendation, full of gratitude and respect. Dr. Ianus is an excellent surgeon, Tetiana and Lara are wonderful people, and although the journey had its challenges, everything was handled with great professionalism
The final result.
Being alone in the hospital after such an extensive surgery.
