Post-Bariatric Plastic Surgery Avcilar

I have surgery done in 23.08.2022 gastric Sleeve. I am so happy for the result. Thank you so much Global Health Service for all you have done for me. I had a good experience everything was perfect. I want to thank my coordinator Emma for what she did for me! Best team.

I had gastric sleeve surgery performed in January 2020. My pre-op weight was 123.3 kg (271 lbs), six months later, I am at 93.3 kg (205 lbs). Hands-down, having gastric sleeve surgery is one of the best life choices I have made; incredible value for the money. I chose Reyap Hastanesi İstanbul and was impressed with the quality and high standard of care I received from the hospital staff. Serenay Baydede (described as an "angel" in other reviews--and she is) maintained close communication with me throughout the entire process, constantly informing and reassuring me, and continues to this day. My wife, who had gastric bypass surgery in the US several years ago, was reluctant for me to have surgery in Turkey. However, she was so impressed with the quality and standard of care that she scheduled revision surgery for June 2020 (unfortunately, due to COVID-19, we have been forced to reschedule). I thoroughly recommend Reyap Hastanesi İstanbul for this surgery, and I look forward to returning soon for my wife's revision surgery.

🌟 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! 😄❤️

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.
