Health Travels

The consultation (in Istanbul and in advance by telephone) left no questions unanswered. The close support on site made me feel very comfortable and in good hands. Health Travels is definitely a good decision and I can only recommend Clemens and Adem.

I was very surprised at how easy and well everything went since the first contact, as I was quite skeptical at first and wanted to have my eyes lasered in Germany. I'm glad I did it in Turkey through Health Travels. The telephone contact was very friendly and all my questions were answered and there was always someone available, even in Turkey. There was an offer that allowed a companion to stay in the hotel for free and use the transfers, which I thought was very nice. She was also treated nicely in the clinic. On the day of the preliminary examination and the operation, there were even others in the taxi and in the clinic, which meant you didn't feel alone. In the clinic itself we were welcomed by Dorothea, who could speak both languages ​​perfectly and was also there during the preliminary examination and translated everything so that questions could be clarified and the operation, which took place on the same day in the afternoon, was explained to us. During the operation there was another very nice lady who also spoke German and spoke to you well, explained what you had to do and what was happening, since you were fully conscious during the laser treatment. Everything went great and immediately after the operation I was able to see things much more clearly and luckily the pain was manageable. I had decided on Femto-Lasik. The next day I no longer felt anything and could see clearly. The follow-up examination also showed 100% vision. Finally you can begin your life without annoying contact lenses and glasses. From start to finish I felt like I was in good hands and a big thank you goes to the Health Travels team and the BatiGöz Clinic!... (Show more)

Had my Relax Smile surgery at batigöz in Istanbul on December 21st, 2023. Everything went wonderfully, the pick up at the airport despite the airline's 2 hour delay, the check in at the hotel, the whole transfer from hotel to clinic to hotel and of course the operation. 4 days later I can now say that I no longer need the glasses! I'm really excited and can recommend it to everyone!! Thanks to the entire Health Travels and Batigöz team.... (Show more)

Already had my 2 hair transplants at Health Travels. Once again I am very happy with my choice and can only recommend it. Always professional and very friendly from the first contact to the end. Thanks also to the on-site supervisor, Adem, who is always courteous and very friendly. My wishes were also taken into account in the clinic and the Dr. Gür makes almost the entire treatment personal. So I can only recommend it, you feel like you are in safe hands and there is no mass processing like in many other Turkish clinics.... (Show more)

The first contact and also the entire support - from from registration to the procedure - went smoothly. If you had any questions, Adem was always available and clarified the questions directly with the eye clinic. Only the transfer between the airport and the hotel was late, both on the outward flight and on the return flight. Otherwise we felt safe and well taken care of by both Health Travels and Batigöz. We would do it again at any time and can only recommend it! Now it's time to live without glasses :)... (Show more)

A big thank you to Health Travels, you are a great team that takes your work seriously, you always feel well looked after. Everything was organized very professionally. Great communication by phone and email with Mr. Weber, all questions are always answered quickly. I was also able to reach you quickly and easily on site. We were picked up on time and taken to a very nice hotel, and the next day I had my laser eye surgery. We were warmly welcomed at the clinic by Dorthee and Hümeyra. Very nice German-speaking staff who looked after and supported me very well. The laser eye surgery was completely painless and the next day I was already 100% t!! The doctor who performed the operation was also very nice and professional. Since we stayed in Istanbul for 7 days, I wanted to come back to the clinic for a check-up before the return flight, which wasn't a problem. We were picked up from our second hotel on time and taken to the airport. I am very satisfied and can only recommend it with a clear conscience! :) Thanks again to Health Travels and also to Batıgöz Klink.... (Show more)

I can only agree with the positive reviews here! I had a hair transplant with Prof. Dr. Booked Sahinoglu through Health Travels, everything went very well throughout. Mr. Weber from Health Travels spent a lot of time with me in advance because the topic was associated with a lot of uncertainty for me. However, he was able to clear this up by giving me extensive advice in writing and on the phone, and even sent pictures (possible future hairlines, comparable cases, etc.). I also thought it was good that he explained the topic of hair transplants very openly, i.e. he also talked about the fact that, for example, small scars remain in the donor area and that the end result in the recipient area is not comparable to the hair density of the other areas in the scalp. Furthermore, at no point did I feel like I was being pressured into this procedure (which was the case with other providers before; constant calls, emails, etc.). The organization on site went smoothly. Special requests were taken into account in that I was given an additional consultation appointment with the doctor in advance (I wanted to pay a deposit so that I didn't have to walk through Istanbul with the large amount of cash days beforehand; Adem - the on-site supervisor - then invited me to do so I drove to the clinic days before, I was able to pay for everything and meet the doctor). Adem has a very relaxed and pleasant manner, looked after me really well and - especially before the operation - was able to take away my excitement! The hotel wasn't necessarily comparable to a 4-star hotel in Germany, but it was definitely okay and you could feel comfortable. As part of the aftercare, Mr. Weber was available at any time, I was able to send him pictures for analysis, questions were also discussed over the phone and he also took care of me after the operation. So far I can only say that I have had very good experiences with Health Travels without exception! Many thanks to Mr. Weber and Adem :-) An evaluation of the doctor, the clinic, etc. will be made after the final result. Istanbul as a city is very worthwhile for a trip (tip: go there a few days beforehand and explore the city).... (Show more)

Very good service in advance and on site. Always available, everything planned down to the last detail, so you don't have to worry about anything. Very professional on-site support from your personal Health Travels companion, who is available at any time for translation as well as for technical questions and who is very committed to taking care of everything so that you can concentrate entirely on yourself. The selection of partner doctors is of the highest quality because, as in my case (Dr. Gür), they really look after and treat each individual patient themselves, compared to the large clinics. A lot of time is taken and all wishes and concerns are taken into account. Overall, doing it with Health Travels is highly recommended!... (Show more)

Highly recommended for a hair transplant! Very good service during the preliminary discussions and on site. Everything is planned in advance, so ultimately all you have to worry about is the flight. Health Travels will also take care of the transfer from the airport to the hotel or clinic. The on-site support is very professional, with a personal contact person who is available at any time for translations or questions. Particularly noteworthy is the selection of partner doctors, as they really look after and treat each individual patient themselves, compared to the large clinics. A lot of time is taken and all wishes and concerns are taken into account. I have now had my second hair transplant done there and am very satisfied with the procedure!... (Show more)

I visited the clinic during my stay in Istanbul to get an impression and completed a preliminary examination. I didn't have to think long about whether I should do the operation (trifocal lens replacement) or not. The clinic is extremely professional and the on-site support (in German) from Adem is impeccable. I would do it again at any time and highly recommend it to everyone. A big thank you also to Dr. Med. Akın Akyurt. A great doctor... (Show more)

I am completely satisfied with the process. The on-site support from Adem was absolutely uncomplicated and was perfect at all times. My requests regarding the timing were addressed. Questions were answered in the shortest possible time before, during and after the transplant. The clinic was also great. All the staff and Dr Gur were very friendly and helpful. I can't say much about the result today, about 3 weeks after the operation. But so far everything is going according to plan.... (Show more)

I had my eyes lasered in Istanbul 1.5 weeks ago and decided on the Relex Smile method, which was successfully carried out with the Carl Zeiss Femto-Laser VisuMax. I am 100% satisfied and recommend it to everyone. Health Travels was recommended to me and I can only confirm it: top organization, reliable communication and always a friendly exchange (by email and also on the phone). You will receive an information folder from Health Travels in advance, which provides very detailed information about the preparation, the procedure and the healing process. This also took some of my fears away. YouTube videos about the Bati Göz Eye Clinic were also very helpful and informative. Everything went great for me in Istanbul, be it the punctual driver, the preliminary examination + laser eye surgery + follow-up examination or the friendly and good-humored Dorothea (German-speaking supervisor in the clinic). My supervising doctor at the clinic was also very friendly and competent. The preliminary examination and the laser eye surgery took place on the same day, so that I was able to go on a sightseeing tour the next day. I felt very well looked after - from start to finish....

To the point, absolutely perfect, from start to finish. I received perfect care from my punctual pickup at the airport and throughout my stay from my personal clinic staff. The hospital stay was perfectly organized and there were no waiting times. My attending physician, who was also a surgeon, spoke fluent German and so there were no problems with communication. The clinic itself is excellently equipped and the staff are always very friendly. My eye surgery (insertion of trifocal lenses) was a complete success and I am absolutely thrilled with the results. I can absolutely recommend this clinic and would make this decision again and again. My stay outside the clinic was particularly pleasant due to the exceptional hospitality of the Turks. Thank you and see you soon as a visitor to this beautiful city.... (Show more)

I am very satisfied with the whole process. I was alone in Istanbul and felt comfortable and safe thanks to the reliability and support on site. The doctor and his team did a very good job and relieved me of any concerns with their competent manner.

I had a hair transplant with Health Travels together with my twin brother. I am completely satisfied with the advice, organization and communication before and after. Answers were always honest and quick. The process in Turkey was smooth, whether transfer from the airport to the hotel or from the hotel to the clinic. Everything worked out great. A special thank you also goes to Adem who took care of everything on site so that our stay was as uncomplicated as possible!... (Show more)

I had trifocal lenses implanted in Istanbul last week with my partner. Our experiences with the Health Travels agency have been consistently positive so far. The telephone consultations from Mr. Weber were very good. He informed me very comprehensively and, above all, pointed out the disadvantages of various treatment options. Particularly noteworthy is the smooth organization and support on site in Istanbul by Mr. Adem Ergürsel. We never had to wait long, all transfers were on time. Adem was always on site at the clinic appointments, providing advice, information and answering questions. We extended our stay by 2 days to see more of the city of Istanbul. Here too, Adem was there to help and advise us. Thank you!👍... (Show more)

At the beginning of September I went to the BatiGöz Clinic through Healthtravels for laser eye surgery (Relex Smile method). The advice and support from Mr. Weber in advance is worth the 5-star rating alone, but what is certainly more interesting for the reader of this review is the process and my experience after the operation: Transport: Great, we were picked up at the airport and driven straight to the hotel/clinic. Clinic: German support, All people very nice. My doctor was great and very competent. Pre-examination, surgery and follow-up examination by one doctor! The clinic was clean and modern. In Germany, some clinics certainly look worse. The op: Really honest > Every visit to the dentist is worse. At first glance I even thought he was still setting it up when I was told we were done. The only slightly unpleasant thing is removing the removed layer, but it's really not that bad. After the operation: Minimal stinging in the eyes, blurred vision for the first few hours (don't panic, this is normal). Slight burning of the eyes as if in a swimming pool. Pro tip: sleep! Believe me, after sleeping almost all problems are gone. From the second day onwards my vision was almost perfect. The follow-up examination lasted a maximum of 30 minutes, everything was fine. From day 3 onwards everything will be great. Now it's almost 4 weeks and my vision is perfect (previously -3.5 and -4). I would like to thank HealthTravels for the great planning, I would do it again in a heartbeat. Thanks!... (Show more)

On June 12th My eyes were treated with the Lasik method in Istanbul. From planning and organization to the operation, everything was perfectly organized. The operation itself was completed in about 20 minutes and I was able to see almost 100% immediately afterwards. My vision is now over 100%. Many thanks to Mr. Weber for the excellent service and of course a thousand thanks to the doctors in Istanbul at the Bati Göz Eye Clinic. Absolute professionals work there. Many greetings from Thuringia.... (Show more)
