Being top heavy since my teen years, I’d always suffered from back pains which had intensified over the past few years. It was difficult to find clothes that fit and I’d often have to wear clothes two or three sizes bigger than my actual frame. On the advice of UK experts, ‘gym and exercise’ weren’t doing the job for me. We don’t get to choose which part of our bodies we lose the fat, unfortunately. I was losing fat elsewhere on my body but not in the area I was aiming for.
So, I finally decided to have a breast reduction, with uplift. I researched breast surgeons in the UK and was disappointed on many levels - the money-hungriness of some of the surgeons completely put me off. I went for a consultation with a well-known ‘seen on TV’ breast surgeon in the UK, where payment was discussed in the first few minutes, without any questions of why I wanted surgery, height/weight, and other basics not discussed - things I’d consider vital, followed by pressuring me to book in for the same week for a ridiculous price. It went like that for me and my experiences weren’t very good and I wasn’t about to put my life in the hands of anyone I didn’t trust. Money wasn’t an issue for me, all I was looking for was a decent reputable surgeon, even if it meant traveling to a different country.
I looked online on WhatClinic.com and saw many different clinics in different countries offering what I wanted. Once I registered interest and uploaded the contact details I had instant messages from more than twenty different clinics from around the globe, each claiming to be the best. I was skeptical and didn’t believe it. They were very persistent, yet I did my research and looked around to seek the best. One particular place stood out for me - Estevien Clinic in Istanbul, Turkey. It was very clear and concise in what they were offering. I was drawn to it. I emailed the clinic and they replied within a day or so. Like an open book, the Estevien medical consultant (Mouhamad Allaham) laid down the law and told me exactly what the deal was and what I was getting into, explaining all the small print. He was very professional and there were complete honesty and a genuine feel for the way he sold it. I was sent the surgeon's background, education and training details which filled my phone memory there were so many certificates. One glance at his background and history and that was all I needed. This man was a highly skilled, respectable and reputable surgeon and my gut instinct told me this man really was one of the best. His name was Dr. Okan Morkoc. I decided this was the one for me.
After a few messages and conversations with the Estevien medical consultant, I made the wisest decision I ever made in my life and booked in. It was an easy transition and everything was stress-free. The journey to Istanbul and back was smooth with no complications. Everything was taken care of by the Estevien planning team to make it as easy as possible for me.
Well, I was a difficult little sod, yet the Estevien staff bore the brunt of my post-op emotional highs and lows (emotional post-op is apparently normal). They were very organized and on the ball. 24-hour contact available via phone with the medical consultant and planning team, plus Turkish-English translator available. Superb results, almost hard to believe. Exactly what I wanted. Would highly recommend Estevien Clinic/Dr. Okan Morkoc. A top creditable surgeon who is the cream of the crop.
