ESG - Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty Istanbul Province

🌟 Review for Dr. Murat Üstün, his assistant Maya, and Memorial Clinic 🌟 I had my bariatric surgery at Memorial Clinic with Dr. Murat Üstün, and it was an experience that showed me what true professionalism, humanity, and heartfelt care for a patient really look like. Just 15 minutes with Dr. Murat Üstün is enough to understand what kind of person and doctor he is — you immediately feel a sense of strength, calm, and complete trust. You stop thinking about risks and simply feel safe enough to close your eyes and let go. Now I lovingly refer to him as “my Üstün.” He’s not only incredibly skilled and competent, but also deeply compassionate — he truly cares about his patients’ emotions and inner peace. When I was taken into the operating room, he asked me what kind of music I liked. He played that music, we took a photo together, and the whole process started in such a warm, positive, and cheerful atmosphere that I instantly forgot about fear. We were talking, laughing… and I fell asleep so peacefully that I didn’t even notice when. On the third day after surgery, I had a bit of a psychological crisis — I felt weak and found it hard to walk, and I became emotional. That’s when Dr. Üstün told me a sentence I will never forget: “This is exactly what we wanted — your body is in shock because you stopped feeding it, and that’s exactly what both of us aimed for.” Those words calmed me instantly and gave me so much strength that the very next day I walked 6 kilometers. Not only that — during the following nine days, I walked all around Istanbul on foot! This kind of attitude — professionalism, empathy, and genuine humanity — gives a patient real hope and courage. P.S. I can’t help but mention that my doctor is not only the best of the best but also the most handsome! 😄 I also want to express my special gratitude to his assistant Maya — she was always by my side, took care of every detail, and supported me with her warmth and kindness. Maya, you are the definition of excellent service. I was just one patient out of a thousand, but you made me feel like I was the only one — and for that, I will always be grateful. And of course, this also shows my Üstün’s wisdom — that he chose you as his assistant. Memorial Clinic stands out with its cleanliness, organization, and genuine care for patients. I highly recommend it to anyone considering bariatric surgery — you will not only receive excellent medical care but also warmth, attention, and true support. 💙 Thank you to my lifesaver Dr. Murat Üstün, Maya, and the entire team at Memorial Clinic — you gave me the strength to start a new life! And as they told me, I could do my follow-up tests in my own country… but honestly, I just want to go back to Istanbul — only to see my Üstün again. Hopefully, this time I’ll arrive looking even more beautiful! 😄❤️

If there were a 10-star rating, this place would definitely get it. Like everyone else, I thought it was scary and was unsure if it was safe to have surgery abroad. But this feeling subsided as soon as I met the driver who picked me up. Doctor Ersin is truly a surgeon who takes you seriously and takes the time to listen to you. Both before and after the surgery, I felt that I was in safe hands and well taken care of. I have bad experiences waking up after anaesthesia. I took this up and have never had such a pleasant awakening. He has a fantastic team around him, from those who wait for and welcome you at the hospital and help you with everything from paperwork to other things you need and not least are in the hospital with you day and night in case you need anything and follow you to the hotel and ensure that everything is taken care of for your safety. Many thanks to Burak, who was with me all the way and to this young girl who was in the hospital room by my side the whole first night after the operation, whose name I don't remember. I would also like to thank the wonderful nurses Fatma, Eda and Aleyna and others whose names I unfortunately cannot remember now, who visited me morning and evening throughout my stay and always responded immediately to my messages. Thank you very much! I have already told many people about my wonderful stay and will continue to recommend you.

I travelled from the UK to Turkey in October of 2021 to have a gastric sleeve and I am very pleased with my results, I lost lost 53kg so far and I can’t thank Dr Burak enough! He was so professional and did an excellent job with no mistakes, his aftercare was also amazing as he would check on me every day until he was satisfied with my recovery. If anyone is interested in having a gastric sleeve with Dr Burak please be reassured you will be in safe hands.
