I had an exceptional experience with Turkey-Health for my eye surgery in Turkey. They offer very competitive prices, and I would especially like to thank Nassim. His professionalism and availability were remarkable, and he brilliantly corrected the mistakes of his predecessor. I highly recommend their services!

Go there with your eyes closed, stop listening to what they tell you in France. The service is so impeccable, not a single misstep, from the airport pick-up upon arrival in Turkey to the return to the airport after the operation. The medical staff is very kind, the surgeon is extremely competent, a brand new 4-star hotel with a Turkish breakfast. A 24-hour translator, a rate two and a half times cheaper than in France... I'll stop there, no need to go any further.

I went there for the medical checkup and I would say everyone there was very nice, but even with a translator there is still a bit of an English barrier. I feel like I had a lot of questions that I wanted to ask the doctor but a little overwhelmed to ask with everything. ANOTHER THING IS IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO GET YOUR MEDICAL RECORDS IN ENGLISH, it has been 2 weeks and counting.

A disc prosthesis is a medical implant designed to replace a worn or damaged intervertebral disc, causing pain and functional limitations. By imitating the natural movements of the disc, it helps to :
Disc replacement is generally considered when conservative treatments (medications, physical therapy) have failed to relieve pain and the disc is the main source of the problem. It is particularly suitable for patients suffering from:
The disc prosthesis can be implanted in either the lumbar (lower back) or cervical (neck) spine. In both cases, the principle is the same: replace a diseased disc to relieve pain and preserve mobility.
A disc prosthesis is inserted through an anterior approach, which allows access to the disc without going through the back muscles. The surgeon removes the damaged disc and replaces it with an artificial disc.
Disc replacement is an effective solution for treating pain caused by worn discs. It offers many benefits in terms of pain relief, maintaining mobility, and improving quality of life.
This is an important medical decision to be made in consultation with your surgeon in Turkey. He or she will evaluate your medical condition and suggest the best solution for your situation.
Our team of expert surgeons in Turkey performs cervical disc replacement surgery through a small incision in the front of the neck. This minimally invasive approach allows access to the damaged disc.
The damaged disc is gently removed and then replaced with a perfectly fitting artificial prosthesis. This prosthesis usually consists of a metal plate implanted into the adjacent vertebrae and a central core of elastic material that allows the natural movement of the neck to be restored.
Lumbar disc replacement surgery in Turkey is performed under general anesthesia and lasts an average of two hours. The hospital stay is usually 48 to 72 hours.
The surgery is performed in several stages:
In Turkey, our surgeons are renowned for their expertise in diagnosing and treating a wide range of spinal pathologies. We use the highest quality disc prostheses that are carefully designed to provide long-term durability and support.
Our advanced minimally invasive techniques allow us to perform procedures with smaller incisions, significantly reducing post-operative pain. This innovative approach not only improves patient comfort, but also facilitates a remarkably fast recovery.
At Turquie Santé, every patient benefits from personalized medical follow-up, ensuring ongoing support and advice throughout their treatment journey.
Your health and well-being is our priority!
