FAQ: Shoulder replacement Doctors in Turkey

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

How can I find and evaluate a qualified shoulder replacement surgeon in Turkey?

Finding a qualified shoulder replacement surgeon in Turkey requires verifying specific orthopedic credentials and specialized training. Focus on surgeons holding Professor or Associate Professor titles at JCI-accredited hospitals. These experts typically have extensive experience in both anatomical and reverse shoulder arthroplasty techniques.

  • Board certification: Qualified specialists hold Turkish Orthopedics and Traumatology Training Council (TOTEK) certification.
  • Specialized fellowships: Leading surgeons often complete international fellowships in shoulder reconstruction or orthopedic oncology.
  • Academic expertise: Titles like Professor Dr. Gursel Saka indicate extensive research and complex clinical practice.
  • Facility standards: Top hospitals maintain JCI accreditation for strict safety and infection control protocols.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data shows that the most successful shoulder outcomes in Turkey come from surgeons with diverse trauma and oncology backgrounds. For example, Dr. Erkam Komurcu and Dr. Selman Dogan integrate oncology training into joint reconstruction. This helps them manage complex bone loss or previous failed surgeries. Patients should prioritize doctors with international observerships, such as those at UCLA or North American medical centers, to ensure modern surgical approaches.

Patient Consensus: Patients emphasize that a successful recovery depends on the postoperative pathway rather than just the surgery. Many noted that coordinating physical therapy in advance is vital for restoring range of motion. They also suggest getting a clear plan for how to handle follow-up care after returning home.

Do Turkish shoulder replacement surgeons perform robotic-assisted procedures?

Select specialized centers in Turkey perform robotic-assisted shoulder replacement using advanced 3D-planning and navigation technologies. Leading surgeons utilize systems like MAKO for precise implant placement. These procedures are concentrated in JCI-accredited networks in Istanbul, Bursa, and Antalya to improve surgical accuracy.

  • Technological integration: Surgeons use robotic platforms and 3D-printed guides for exact bone preparation.
  • Robotic specialists: Dr. Kayhan Turan in Bursa pioneered robotic joint replacement technology in Turkey.
  • Precise navigation: Dr. Erman Cekic uses the MAKO robotic system for high-accuracy joint replacements.
  • Advanced imaging: Surgeons utilize CT-based navigation to plan complex reverse shoulder arthroplasty procedures.

Bookimed Expert Insight: While robotic shoulder surgery is emerging, most top Turkish surgeons specialize in hybrid approaches. Dr. Abdulaziz Temiz and Dr. Kayhan Turan at Turan Turan Health Group hold specific certifications for Mako and NAVIO 7 systems. Patients should confirm if the robotic assistance applies to the shoulder or exclusively to knee and hip cases at their chosen clinic.

Patient Consensus: Patients note that while robotics are widely advertised for knees, shoulder discussions focus more on 3D-preoperative planning. Many were surprised by the intensive physical therapy required after the procedure regardless of the technology used. They emphasize that the surgeon's experience with specific implants matters as much as the robotic tools.

Can I have a direct consultation or video call with a shoulder replacement doctor in Turkey before traveling?

Yes, you can have a video consultation with a shoulder replacement doctor in Turkey. Major JCI-accredited hospitals offer remote evaluations. Surgeons review your digital imaging to discuss surgical candidacy. Bookimed coordinates these appointments, scheduling video calls through platforms like WhatsApp or dedicated hospital portals.

  • Virtual evaluation: Surgeons review MRI and CT scans remotely to confirm your surgical plan.
  • Online pricing: Consultations with specialists like Dr. Kayhan Turan start from around $30.
  • Direct communication: Video calls allow you to discuss implant options and recovery timelines directly.
  • Expert review: Prof. Dr. Gursel Saka offers online consultations for complex shoulder arthroplasty cases.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data shows that choosing doctors with international fellowships, such as Dr. Kayhan Turan who trained at Northwestern University in Chicago, often leads to smoother remote consultations. These surgeons are accustomed to international standards and typically provide more detailed surgical plans during video calls compared to general practitioners.

Patient Consensus: Patients note that speaking directly with the operating surgeon before traveling provides immense peace of mind. Many suggest confirming that the video call is with the doctor rather than a representative. They find it helpful to have a written plan covering the surgery and local follow-up before booking flights.
