Gastric Balloon Turkey

I had my surgery with Aktif at vital hospital with Dr Ibrahim Agackiran on the 4th of July 2023. Dr Ibrahim is great, seems to know what he’s doing and is very professional. The surgery went well, and I’m currently down 7 kg in 1 week!! Here are some pros and cons of the surgery and some things to think about if you want to have the surgery. Pros: +The surgeons/doctors at the facility are very professional and good at their job. +The guide/translator Luca was great, super nice and helpful. +I feel great after the surgery but it's a huge adjustment. +They’ve been very helpful at answering all my questions now afterwards and they are quick to reply to you. Cons: - Most of the nurses at the facility don’t speak English so it’s hard to communicate with them but they are very friendly and try their best to help you. -I wasn't given proper info/instructions about my medications (especially the blood thinner syringes I had to give myself). I had to kinda figure it out on my own. I wish they would have shown me how to do it while I was at the hospital. -I wasn’t told how to properly care for the wounds/incisions after the surgery so two of them are infected now. I tried to care for them to the best of my ability and they will hopefully clear out in a couple of days with the antibiotics. -Doctors in Sweden don’t want to help me as much now because I’ve had surgery abroad.

I had the best experience with the Vanity Clinic. From the initial conversation, I had with Belma which was highly informative. There was constant support throughout the process and she was always available to answer any of my questions or concerns. Dr. Safa Manav did an amazing job and exceeded expectations for my particular issue. Ayla was also amazing and supportive as I was there to receive my therapy alone. All in all, the clinic made this experience an easy and memorable one. Shout out to everyone at V.C

I’m currently 2 weeks post op from a gastric sleeve and had the best experience with bridge health travel - I was helped the whole way through by Irem and really owe her so much for helping change my life! From the very start she was so helpful, supportive and caring! It was a massive reason why I picked this company as I had been whatsapping her for months and months before deciding to go ahead and I’m glad I did. My experience during my surgery all the way to going home was also very good. The team and surgeon were very skilled and caring, checking on me throughout the day and Irem is always there for any questions or if you need anything. The rooms were so clean and modern during my stay and it was also very comfortable. If you bring a companion, they also set up a bed next to the hospital bed and 3 meals a day for their everyday which was a very nice gesture. So good for value! And the team really are the best. Already seeing a steady weight loss 13 days out and Irem gives you all the extra information and medications to go home with so you’re prepared when you get home!

What can I say Medhera Health and team are amazing, I was a high risk case having a heart condition and I had the best care everything was perfect from the moral support to pain relief and observation after the operation. Medhera's doctor, the interpreter’s Tolunay and the lovely dietitian, the nurses was all just amazing people nothing was to much trouble. I will be recommending to anyone I know who wants this surgery to come here. Thank you all again you are the best.

Wow wow wow I use to suffer from sleep apnea and I was obese Sezen and Dr Metin were amazing I’m so glad I found them I also had a hernia which Dr. Metin fixed for me. All the staff were amazing. I got the gastric sleeve surgery. I was 115KG now I’m 80kg my sleep apnea is gone and it’s loads of energy thanks, guys ❤️

Highly recommend. I had a gastric ballon six months ago. I lost 20 kg with the support and great advices from Dietitian Nur. Dr Kaplan is a very good doctor with huge experience and always want the best option for patient. It was a good experience. Also good value for money.

I had my sleeve operation 3 weeks ago and I must say it’s life-changing. and although this was done a few days ago I already lost 8kg. I have explored various options to lose weight and this has now proved the best option. The hospital staff and doctor are extremely helpful caring and providing sterling customer service with a smile.

I would like to Thank You So Much for everything, to the Global Health and BookingSurgery. My coordinator was amazing and answered all questions and doubts, the support was incredible. Because even though my surgery is done, she made herself available if I need any support. I had such an amazing experience during my stay in the Optimed International Çorlu Hastanesi. I had Dr Ali Tardu as my surgeon and he was amazing, very attentive, and checked on me regularly. I can say that I had fun during my stay. All the staff that worked on the 6th floor, Nurses and Housekeepers that were in contact were amazing, friendly, kind, caring and patient. It felt like home. The only "negative" thing was with the kitchen staff from the hospital, not negative but they were not prepared for people with gluten intolerant and vegan. That was mentioned in advance before I booked the surgery and when I arrived at the hospital. With me it was not a big problem because I was not eating but my friend is gluten intolerant and they kept giving her food with gluten, I mentioned it to the staff and they gave her an alternative but not much. The other negative thing was that they did not understand one of my allergies, I mentioned to my coordinator that I have allergies to latex before I booked the surgery and I also mentioned in the hospital when I arrived, but kept using latex gloves during all stay, the only time that did not used was during the surgery because I see them with the latex free gloves and they kept saying no latex.

Firstly a huge thank you to the wonderful Cemre. You made the whole process from start to finish exemplary. I felt well cared for and in very good hands with you. You are extremely knowledgeable, caring and very professional. You are amazing 🤩 so dedicated to your work. The organization and care you provide for your patients make the whole process so easy and comfortable and without doubt the jewel of JFS clinic. My surgeon Onur -evren- Yilmaz is an absolutely amazing surgeon and I feel very lucky to have been one of his patients. A perfectionist at work.

I shopped around for hair implants and with their offer they convinced me straight away they were by far more reasonable than anyone else. When I arrived at the airport I was greeted by the rep (Yagiz Aydin) wonderful guy extremely helpful nothing too much for him, he introduced me to the lady doctor who was very kind and efficient so was all her team She followed up with kindness I strongly recommend this clinic.

Smooth process, from booking to the transfers and accommodation that was sorted for me. The procedure (elipse balloon) was painless, I was only in the clinic one hour. Managed to lose 11lbs in one week, so I'd recommend.

I had bulbous nose and my surgery had in May 2023. Dr Bahitten is very professional I’m really satisfied with the results. The hospital was clean and tidy and the staff was very friendly & helpful. Ideal for solo travellers. The package was responsible too. Please ask for medical documents before leaving the hospital cause on Airport you can be ask for your reports. I highly recommend this Hospital.

I was introduced to this clinic from friend of mine that I know for many many years. And he highly recommended this place. Actually I was scared a little bit if it's gonna be painful but actually it was completely different than what I thought. I am satisfied and I also highly recommend anyone for a great job from the staff. The coordinator is one of the guys that you can become friends for life time, making you comfortable through all the procedure. And from the receptionist to the nurses, and doctor I have no bad words that I can say because whatever I say will not just be enough for the great service I received. I had a great experience. Thank you Febris for that I'm so happy you guys became friends for life.
