I got tummy tuck, lipo and breast augmentation From the beginning they have been very professional, always keeping contact with me through WhatsApp even when I’m across the world. From the moment I walked in, the staff at the hospital was warm, professional, and genuinely attentive. The clinic is clean, modern, and well organized, which immediately made me feel comfortable and confident in my decision. The surgeon took the time to listen to my goals, explain everything clearly, and answer all of my questions without rushing. I felt informed and supported throughout the entire process. The results look natural and exactly what I was hoping for. The after surgery the nurses took very good care of me and made me feel safe. I would. After my tummy tuck they recommended Serpil and I am so happy I met this amazing woman. Not only is she very professional but the nicest warmest positive woman I’ve met. We are coming back in October and I must visit her! I highly recommend dr. Ak and his staff and EFC private hospital

I can’t recommend Dr Erman Ak highly enough. I went to him for a corrective breast augmentation with lift after having a previous breast augmentation in 2021 that needed to be redone, and from start to finish the experience was exceptional. I flew from the UK to Istanbul for my surgery, and I can honestly say I didn’t feel worried for a single moment. From the first consultation through to aftercare, everything was so well organised and professional that I felt completely safe and confident in my decision. Dr Erman Ak is incredibly meticulous and thorough. My surgery took around four hours, whereas a standard breast augmentation usually takes about two, which really shows the level of care, precision, and attention to detail he puts into his work. Nothing felt rushed — every step was done properly and thoughtfully. He made me feel completely at ease, and the same goes for his entire team. From the nurses to the support staff, everyone was professional, kind, and extremely informative. The clinic itself was spotless and very reassuring in terms of cleanliness and standards. The aftercare was also excellent. I was given everything I needed and very clear, detailed instructions on what to do during recovery, which made the healing process feel much less stressful. One thing that truly stood out to me was Dr Erman Ak’s stitching technique. Even with an anchor scar, after just two weeks there were areas where you could barely see where the stitches had been — they were that fine and precise. The level of skill is honestly impressive. If you’re considering a primary or corrective breast surgery and are even thinking about travelling abroad, I would 100% recommend Dr Erman Ak and his team. I would make the same decision again without hesitation.

Dr. Ak is exceptionally skilled. From the start, he took time to understand what I did not like and what I was hoping to improve. He offered honest feedback grounded in his experience and never felt pushy. He was open to questions, including things I had read on my own, and never dismissed or shut down the conversation. My surgery went well, and my time in Istanbul was very pleasant. Personally, I did not do much sightseeing after surgery, but I know others who felt well enough to explore a bit during recovery. His coordinator, Rabia, is outstanding. I truly cannot say enough good things about her. She responds quickly, even after hours, and having her support throughout the process made a meaningful difference. I also want to mention Serpil, the massage therapist and nurse they work with. She is incredibly hardworking with excellent bedside manner. She is kind, compassionate, and patient, and her massages made a noticeable difference in my swelling. Finally, there is a WhatsApp group for potential, current, and past patients. That sense of community added a great deal to the overall experience. We share tips, recovery photos, and support one another. When you are traveling from abroad, that kind of connection is invaluable, and I do not think many doctors offer anything like it. I am very happy with how my results are coming along. I am currently 15 days post op.

Exactly 1 month post-op. This was genuinely the easiest surgery I have ever had and I have undergone three previous procedures before this one. The professionalism of the entire team was outstanding. Rabia was exceptional throughout. She was extremely organised efficient and an excellent communicator. She coordinated everything seamlessly and was there at every step making the entire process feel calm and well managed. Dr. Erman Ak is the most realistic and honest surgeon I have worked with. He sets clear and achievable expectations and then delivers results that exceed them. His approach is patient first focused on what genuinely works best for the individual and his surgical technique has been excellent. My recovery has been smooth and complication free which I truly believe reflects his skill and experience. Serpil the post operative nurse was also fantastic. She was warm friendly and highly knowledgeable. The wider nursing team went above and beyond offering support and care well beyond what I expected which made a huge difference during recovery. I am extremely happy with my results and my experience and I am confident I made the right choice with Dr. Erman Ak. I look forward to returning for the next stage of my reconstructive journey.

Hello everyone who will read this. I wanted to share my experience because choosing the right surgeon is such an important decision, and I am truly grateful I trusted Dr. Erman Ak. I did extensive research before making my choice, and I was very nervous about maintaining a natural look. But my results are absolutely perfect. It has only been one month since my surgery, and I’m already extremely satisfied. Traveling more than 10 hours by plane to see Dr. Ak was completely worth it. He is passionate about his work, incredibly meticulous, and a true perfectionist in the best way. You can feel that he genuinely cares about achieving the best possible outcome for each patient. During my consultation, he even recommended additional refinements—such as subtle fat transfers—that I would never have thought of myself, and they turned out to be some of the most beautiful parts of my final result. His artistic eye and attention to detail are exceptional. If you’re considering surgery and want a surgeon who combines precision, artistry, and genuine care, I cannot recommend Dr. Erman Ak enough. I have absolutely no regrets—only gratitude.
