Hip Resurfacing Europe

I had a gastric band removed and then they fitted me with a gastric sleeve. Prior to this surgery, I did a lot of research. I decided on KCM because patients spoke highly of them. For the first two days after the surgery, I felt pretty zonked out but by the third day, everything was fine. I took five weeks off work in total. I’d give them a 5/5. What a first class experience! We weren’t sure which procedure we’d be doing until the doctor opened me up and had a look inside. Because I had too much scar tissue, we opted for a gastric sleeve. I knew when we went in for the surgery that this might be an outcome, so I was prepared. However, in terms of results, the gastric sleeve is not what I expected. The restriction isn’t as good as I’d hoped, but my research prepared me for this eventuality. For some reason, people who’ve had a gastric band don’t get the same restriction as somebody getting a sleeve done for the first time. I do have some restriction because small portions satisfy me, but I can’t get by on the minute meals some people eat. They quoted me 6000 Euros and we stuck to this price. In terms of aftercare, there was always someone available online to answer my questions (they have a Facebook group and so on). Everything was good, but I especially loved the hotel. They put me up in a 4-star hotel with a beautiful reception area. The surgeon himself was very skilled and professional. The surgery left me with four little keyhole scars, but they’re not so bad. They also gave me a prescription for pain meds I could use during recovery.

I have just had a revisional sleeve in April at the Private Eskisehir Anadolu hospital which has been an overall positive experience, and good value for money. I choose this hospital due to a family member having her gastric sleeve done there in 2017, and she recommends it to me. Everyone I met during my stay from the doctors to the nurses and cleaners where very warm and welcoming. Sevim my patient supervisor was exceptional, she was very informative, pleasant, answered all my questions and concerns, which made my experience stress free. Dr Jenk was very warm, pleasant and calm which made me feel happy and confident. Overall my experience at Anadolu Hospital has been an excellent one, and I would highly recommend them. Thanks, everyone you all done an excellent job.

I was diagnosed with congenital hip dysplasia. About six months ago it started to get worse and I was in serious pain doing my daily activities. After researching Prof. Fahri Erdogan for a long time I finally decided to consult him with my reports and files. International patient coordinator Mr Ege replied to me in an hour and collected the information they need to consult Dr Fahri. The next day Mr Ege got back to me with detailed explanations of Dr Fahri’s opinion, the injury and possible treatment processes. He sent me x-rays and videos of previous patients who had surgery for hip dysplasia. I knew Dr Fahri is known to be very successful in knee and hip replacement surgeries, but after seeing before-after videos of his patients I decided to book the trip and get the surgery performed by him. Mr Ege who spoke perfect English met us at the airport and was with us all the time. After meeting Dr Fahri in person for the physical examination I felt I am in safe hands due to his knowledge and confidence. His team arranged the treatment process as we spoke, and on my 3rd day in Istanbul, the surgery was performed. Dr Fahri and his team regularly visited me in the hospital during my 5-day stay. They helped me walk short distances. Even 1 day after the operation I was able to walk with a much better posture. They thought my physical therapy exercises and explained to me the healing period briefly. After resting 3 more days at the hotel Mr Ege dropped us to the airport for our flight back. It has been 5 months since the surgery and I can’t tell you how happy I am. I am able to walk with a much better posture and no pain at all. I used to avoid events that require physical activity before the surgery. Now I am basically able to do anything without help. I can take care of my daily jobs, join social gatherings and enjoy my days again. My pain is completely healed and my posture is much better, all thanks to Dr Fahri and his team, I strongly recommend Dr Fahri to anyone who needs a hip replacement surgery. You don’t have to live with it. Let Dr Fahri help you and you’ll regain your life quality with your treated hips.
