Booking Surgery
Kelly orourke reviewed I went with booking surgery.com to have…

I went with booking surgery.com to have a gastric sleeve on the 22nd January 2025 and from start to finish the service has been amazing! Pierre was my coordinator and he was there to answer every question I had or any worries I had and put my mind at ease. The nurses at the Yasam were also amazing. This was the first time I had ever been to Turkey so to go for major surgery was nerve racking but everyone made me feel at ease from the start. The Yasma hospital is spotless to. The translators Ellie, Stella and Bill where also amazing anyway I had to ask they where there within minutes to answer or find out the answer to my questions. Last but not least Dr Ali Tardu is amazing even after surgery coming to see me everyday and if I was in pain or needing anything having it to me within 5 minutes. I could not recommend this company anymore the best. Thanks so much Pierre and booking surgery for my stress free gastric cleave.

Lucie Corcoran reviewed Excellent, efficient company.

Cannot praise this company enough. From being picked up from the airport until I was taken back on the return journey every aspect of the experience was fantastic. I had a 360FDL and arm life and travelled alone. Dr. Emin is a genius but the coordinator (Robert), nurses, translators, cleaners, catering staff and taxi driver were all amazing. I felt extremely safe and looked after. Booked again to go back in April and have no worries. Robert has been amazing answering any questions to reassure me and nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend Bookingsurgery.com for efficiency, perfection and care.

Crystal Rudd reviewed VSG jan 2023, 360fdl&arms jan 2025

January 2023 I went with booking surgery for my gastric sleeve, my surgeon was Dr Servet Karagul. I had Penny River as my coordinator, i was so anxious about the whole thing. Penny was phenomenal and helped so much with my mental state. From the transport to the hospital and the care from BHT clinic hospital and the staff with Bookingsurgery I had an amazing experience, clean room, fantastic staff & great translators. It's now 2025 I'm over 2 years post-op sleeve and I went back with booking surgery for my first round of plastics (lose skin removal) i had a 360fdl tummy tuck and arm lift with also lipo to my outer thighs. This time I was greated with a bunch of flowers at the airport alongside Penny personally being there. (I gave permission for booking surgery to document my arrival and pre-op tests/ surgery) upon arrival at the hospital medistanbul I had pre-op tests within the hour of arrival and also Penny went to Starbucks to get myself and my mother something to eat (as we arrived on Sunday evening) 13th jan 2025 I had my surgery with Dr Yalcinl it is early days but the work he's done is insane and I've had many people comment at the precision of his work. Through my whole stay at medistanbul I was looked after from both nursing staff of the hospital and booking surgery nurses & their translators if i needed any support within the language barrier. This was a differnt hospital from where I had my sleeve and I was slightly anxious but bookingsurgery was still the same. They go above and beyond for their patients to ensure we are alright and address and needs or issues we may have. I cannot wait to go back again with bookingsurgery to have my Thighs and breasts done. Absolutely 10/10. Thank you

Laura Sammut reviewed Excellent care from start to finish

Excellent care from start to finish. This is my second time with Booking surgery and from booking the surgery with Mike Smith to being picked up at the airport and meeting the surgeon, everything was smooth as usual. I am super happy with my results and can’t wait to be back!

Emma reviewed The whole experience

The staff, the facilities and obviously the surgeons results. Dr Emin and his team have looked after me now for the 3rd time and I would recommend him and them to anyone! Amazing service, warm and friendly welcome, the interpreters, keep you up to date with everything, they, the nurses, the drivers, the cleaning staff all do their best to make sure you feel at ease and are well looked after, thank you! ❤️

Nikki Lawton reviewed Gastric sleeve surgery

Had my gastric sleeve surgery 20/1/25 I was so nervous but arrived at yasam hospital and everything was perfect. Very spacious and clean room. Staff were all very nice had an interpreter available all the time. Nothing was too much. Had pre op tests and discussed them with a few different specialist consultants. Met Dr Ali Tardu the morning of my surgery very nice man. Surgery went well and had all appropriate after care. I was worried about travelling home 2 days post op but nursing staff and Dr Tardu reassured me I was fit to fly and topped me up on IV pain relief before I left so I was more comfortable. I was given dietary advice and all medication to return home with. Thank you to all the staff and my co ordinator Sean he was always available and still is for after care. I’m home and recovering well. Would highly recommend Booking surgery very professional.

Cecilia Archer reviewed Highly recommend booking surgery.com!

My experience from the moment I enquired to the moment I booked surgery, checking into the hospital and the whole treatment was fantastic. The nurses were so caring and the translators were so helpful. I’m overwhelmed at how easy they have made the process for me. Definitely recommend.

karen mcdermott reviewed Third time coming to booking…

Third time coming to booking surgery.com and this company just keeps getting better and better … 4 of us came this time for different procedures and all of us are over the moon with the results . Mike smith is the best coordinator I could ever have wished for he helped all 4 of us to be able to come all together he organised the stay the flights absolutely everything for us he is a massive asset to this company … All the translators are completely fluent in English so you are fully in the know for everything the nurses are so lovely and helpful too
