They are recommended everywhere because they definitely deserve it

5 50 Bariatric Surgery Consultation

I had the operation 11 weeks ago. Perfect results. 19 kg less, never hungry and so far no problems. Above all, wonderful people. From the very beginning until today. Great team, wonderful and professional doctor who literally every one of my slightest doubts immediately knew how to remove it with a great explanation. The most important thing is that everything that was said and agreed upon before the operation is being implemented to this day. Nur and Dr. Kaplan are always here, literally 24/7 for every question I have. One big thank you for the new life. They are recommended everywhere because they definitely deserve it!!!

This surgery changed my life and I have no regrets

5 50 Gastric Sleeve • Paid: ₺97227

5 star! I am 2 years post-op and have lost a total of 57.6kg. I had a gastric sleeve in October 2019, I traveled to Turkey for this treatment as it was much more affordable than it is in the UK. I was 26 years old with a BMI of 51 and I have struggled with obesity.
Everyone I spoke to at the clinic was very helpful and polite. The surgery went well - they were no complications. Dr. Kaplan explained every step of the way to me. The hospital was very clean comfortable, well equipped, highly organised, and very accommodating for my travel guest also. Since having surgery I continue to have regular contact with the nutritionist and I know I can speak to Dr. Kaplan if I have any issues/questions. This surgery changed my life and I have no regrets. I am happy I chose Dr. Kaplan and the team. Thank you ⭐️

5 50 Gastric Sleeve • Paid: ₺128444

I had gastric sleeve surgery there last year and it was the best thing I’ve done for myself. I had a wonderful experience there with Dr Baja and Nur the dietician. She followed up with me for an entire year to make sure everything was going ok. Dr Baha was very informative and so attentive after surgery. I chose this clinic because of Dr Baha’s excellent reputation and the cost was very reasonable for all the service I received. I would highly recommend this clinic and Dr Baha.

I am now 7 and a half stones lighter and feel much better

5 50 Gastric Sleeve

I am from the UK and I had my gastric sleeve in December 2019. I was very nervous but was put to ease straight away when I spoke to my surgeon Dr Kaplan Bahar. I had various health issues and was honest from the get-go. My wonderful doctor reassured me that they knew about these conditions that I had and they had the experience and expertise to deal with my concerns and conditions. So I went ahead and booked my flights and never looked back. It was the best decision I had ever made. The hospital staff were helpful and caring and the dietician was fantastic up until now always there if needed. The hospital was clean the environment too. I had my own room and my own toilet.

I am now 7 and a half stones lighter and feel much better. I would like to thank Dr Kaplan and his team for their hard work in helping me better myself and improve my lifestyle and health.
Thank you
