"I came for my rhinoplasty and I thought despite the language barrier I was well taken care of. The nurses were tentative and I loved my room and bathroom. It had everything you needed and was spacious. My nurses were sweet although I wish I could understand what they were saying a lot of the times as I was nervous and alone. The only other issue was waiting so long- I was scheduled for my operation for 10am but it got delayed until 11:15 when I got wheeled in for my anaesthetia (the nurses for this was soooo lovely) i stopped eating at 11pm the night before and didn’t get my surgery started until 11:15am which meant the whole morning I was starving which was causing me so much more anxiety and I was never given my epilepsy medications at the time I told them (for 12pm)"

"I wanted to share my personal experience with my hair transplant because it has honestly been such a positive journey. From the very beginning, the team at Rememore, which is part of Memorial Hospitals Group, was incredibly helpful and professional. The lovely lady I was speaking with on WhatsApp was always kind, patient, and quick to answer all my questions. She made the whole process feel easy and stress-free even before I arrived. When I arrived at Memorial Hospitals Group, everything was very well organised and professional. The staff made me feel welcome and comfortable from the moment I walked in. The translator was amazing as well — she was very friendly, supportive, and made sure I understood everything throughout the whole procedure. That really helped me relax and trust the process. A big thank you to Dr. Salim Salimov for the great work and attention to detail. You can really see the professionalism and experience in how everything is done. I’m very happy with the experience and excited to see the final results as my hair continues to grow. Overall, I’m really glad I chose Rememore and to have my procedure done at Memorial Hospitals Group. If anyone is thinking about getting a hair transplant, I can honestly recommend this team."

"I had surgery with Dr. Canilkerdemir at Memorial Clinic in Istanbul on April 10th, and sadly my experience has been extremely disappointing. It has been about 6 weeks since my surgery, and I am still in significant pain, especially in my thighs. One of the procedures I specifically wanted was thigh contouring to create separation and a thigh gap, but I honestly do not see any noticeable difference. The lipo done on the left side of my stomach also appears to have made little to no improvement. The only procedure I believe was done reasonably well was the breast lift. What hurts the most is the complete lack of aftercare and concern from the clinic. Since returning to California, not one person from the clinic has called or checked on my recovery. WhatsApp was the primary way we communicated before surgery, but after I reached out with concerns and questions, my messages were ignored. No response at all. The staff were also rude at times, and while there may have been a language barrier, patients should still be treated with compassion, respect, and professionalism — especially after major surgery. This has been a painful and emotionally upsetting experience for me, and based on my personal experience, I would not recommend Memorial Clinic for cosmetic surgery. I hope they improve their patient care, communication, and post-operative support because no patient should feel abandoned after surgery."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review I recently travelled from Australia to Istanbul for a 4,750 graft hair transplant at Memorial Hospital with Dr. Salim Salimov, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Dr. Salimov is incredibly skilled and professional. He explained the entire procedure clearly, answered all my questions, and made me feel completely confident. The surgery went smoothly, and I was amazed that I didn’t feel any pain at all after the procedure. The nurses and staff were also outstanding — friendly, supportive, and attentive throughout the whole journey. The hospital itself is extremely clean, modern, and well-organised. I’m extremely happy with my results so far, and I will definitely be coming back for any future treatments. I highly recommend Memorial Hospital and Dr. Salim Salimov to anyone considering a hair transplant. Outstanding experience all around!"

"We came for first time on December, I haven’t seen until now any other Hospital better than Memorial Bahçelievler Hastanesi. Very organized, they can offer you the comfort that any other hospital will offer. The staff was amazing, very kind and helpful, from receptionist, translators (I have to mention Ola and Elena), the nurses, the doctors and the professors all the staff is the best! I will recommend 🙌🏻 definitely."
