Mastectomy

Learn more about Mastectomy in Turkey by comparing costs and reviewing the clinics and doctors.

If the tumor is larger than the volume of the breast, there are several tumors of the same breast, breast cancer recurrence, and histological analysis shows that surgical treatment should be completed, Mastectomy is generally applied. Although breast loss is perceived as a problem in the first place for women, it is mostly accepted directly because it is a solution for the treatment and non-spread of cancer. Sometimes women can choose Mastectomy to feel safer, even when there is no cancer threat. In addition, there is a separate procedure for reconstructing the breast after or during Mastectomy and is used frequently and with high satisfaction.

I decided to have my mastectomy at this clinic and was very impressed from the moment I stepped inside. The doctor and healthcare team provided comprehensive advice and excellent care throughout the procedure, which made me feel safe and comfortable. The clinic is clean and tidy, meeting high standards. One area I would like to see improved is the package information. I would like it to be clearer and more detailed so that patients can fully understand what is included.

Flymedi did everything very quickly and professional. They arranged the hospital and gave me options on which one to choose. From the first contact I was very impressed and Mustafa took very good care of my wife and I. He even took a day of work to take us to the Bosphorus. Flymedi is the company to use if you require any private medical treatment. There service to the client is better than first class. Gaziozmanpasa hospital was fantastic and ALL the staff from the Administrators to the Medical Team who were involved in my wife's breast cancer treatment were beyond excellent. They treated you as if you were the most important person there. The facilities were excellent and the hospital is immaculate throughout. A great big thank you to all involved. A special thank you to Mustafa Gamze and Elif for there personal care and attention. Mustafa is a terrific representative of Flymedi.
