Gastric Sleeve Izmir

I booked to have the gastric sleeve done as I had a BMI of 46. The whole process was smooth. Right from when Ali messaged me about the procedure after I enquired, to when Cem who was quite flexible and understanding with moving around d my dates around due to COVID 19 effect. Fast forward to a day before my procedure and flights from Heathrow were been delayed, I was on wats app with both Ali and Cem. The relationship seemed more than just a customer relationship. They were genuinely interested in making sure I get to Izmir for my procedure and believe it ain’t just cos they wanted to get paid for the procedure. Which by the way appears to be the best bargain. I nearly caused them sleepless night. I flew from London Heathrow via Istanbul airport then to Izmir. Ok, I got to Izmir airport, a professional driver in a nice clean big transport was already waiting for me with my name card despite delaying him for an extra hour after landing. They all made me feel at ease cos I got to Izmir quite late. He took me straight to the hospital ( Ekol Hastanesia). The staff here were so nice and I can’t fault anything at the hospital. I want to believe this hospital has all specialities. Looks like it’s very well maintained. I met My Surgeon Dr Ali Sarac: who I believe his years of experience in Gastrectomy says a lot on how he operates and manages his patients. I had my surgery on the 19th of June and by now it looks my laparoscopic wounds are healed already from outside. All instructions and advise form him will generally make you calm. Fast forward to discharge from hospital on the third-day post-op. I was discharged from the hospital and got moved to the villa. The villa was extra clean. I met Gokay Bardak (he manages the Villa). He was very pleasant and very attentive to listen to you no matter what your questions were. Then the following morning I met Ayse who was quite friendly despite the language barrier she was quite good at using google translate. I totally forgot I had surgery, I felt at home and also met other patients who came from the UK. We all got along while talking. I really loved my stay at Villa. I had a one to one information and advice session with Dr Sarac at the Villa and apart from this, he was always reachable on wats app if I had any question. During my stay at the Villa, I also went down to the Mono Clinic for teeth whitening. That was a nice experience as well. The reception at the clinic was warm and nice. I forgot to get the name of the Dentist( cute looking). Woah I’ve been talking forever despite trying not to say everything about my experience. Ok, move to the morning of my return to the UK. Dr Ali Sarac personally came to the Villa to make sure everything was fine and I was happy before leaving later that afternoon. He didn't really have to come but that was so kind of him as I had no complaints what so ever. Everything was right on time in consideration of me being at the centre at all times. I get transferred back to Izmir airport on the afternoon of 24th. Cem continued checking on me even after leaving the Villa. Gokay also kept in touch to make sure I got back home safely. I am back home now within a week I’ve started seeing the result of my gastric sleeve procedure. I feel lighter and no more ankle pain due to weight. I see food differently now. I can’t imagine I’ve been feeding my self all these big portions of carbs and fatty foods over the years. Though it’s quite early to talk about the effect of procedure for now I can definitely say it’s been positive and I have a feeling it’s only going to get better till I reach my weight loss goal. Gastric sleeve - best decision I’ve ever had to single-handedly. A big special thank you to everyone at Mono especially ( Ali, Cem, Dr Ali, Gokay, Ayse and the driver: I can’t believe I forgot his name again).

It felt like home. I heard most of the people having pain after surgery but I was taking care of.

Excellent advice and service are offered by the clinic, they not only chase after money but value for your money. A special thank you to Nihan very professional, friendly, and patient, I would definitely recommend the clinic to friends and family.

It is an amazing organization. All the staff are very friendly. They never left us alone.

I traveled from the UK to Istanbul for a Mummy Makeover with Clinic International, this included a Tummy Tuck, 360 Vaser Liposuction, and Breast lift & Implants. I am currently 5 days post op and Clinic International has been brilliant from my initial inquiries with the sales consultant Ertan (answering the 100’s questions I had) to the travel coordinator Onur (arranging all my travel and surgery requests) to my host Büşra who has been absolutely fantastic, she has been there for me every step of the way throughout my time in Istanbul. I would highly recommend using this company. In regards to the surgery itself and the recovery, I totally underestimated how difficult it would be, the first two days were definitely the toughest. I would not advise doing this alone, you 100% need to bring a companion with you. The breast lift and recovery is ok but the tummy tuck and 360 vaser lipo is very debilitating and uncomfortable. In regards to the surgeon, Dr. Daghan Isik, and his surgical team (the two males), they were also fantastic and I cannot fault them. One of the doctor's nursing assistants was very rude but she was rude to everyone including Büşra my host, so I think that is just her unfortunate personality. So far I am very happy with my results, they are very natural. I am a type one diabetic, so this was a high-risk surgery for me but Dr. Daghan Isik really looked after me and took extra precautions to ensure my safety and recovery. The only criticisms I have are from the nurses at the hospital after the procedure. The aftercare isn’t anything compared to the UK, they were not very attentive and I didn’t feel very looked after, but I don’t know if that is normal for the healthcare in Istanbul. They completed very few observations on me post-surgery, luckily and my companion is a nurse so we took a thermometer, BP machine, and everything we needed to check my observations and knew what to look for. Overall I would highly recommend Clinic International and would like to thank Büşra for looking after me so well. The only downside was the aftercare by the nurses in the hospital and one of the doctor's rude assistants.
