I had gastric sleeve surgery on 20th January 25. When I booked my surgery via AYT I was put in touch with my coordinator Olivia. In the 5-6 month countdown to my surgery date I had many questions, all of which were answered quickly and professionally. I was fully prepared for my trip. Upon landing in Antalya we had private transfer to the hospital and advised about my surgeon.
When arriving at the hospital we were processed and booked in. What shocked me was how organised and clean the hospital was. I honestly could not fault a thing.
I took my mother with me for support and company.
I was shown to my private room which was spacious and very clean. I had bloods taken and advised that further tests would be done the following morning.
Day of surgery- I met with Olivia who stayed with me throughout all of my tests around the different departments.
I met with my surgeon dr Namik Yilmaz and I was instantly put at ease. I don't think I could have met a nicer, friendlier surgeon. He explained everything to me and made sure I understood what he had told me.
Time for surgery - I was taken down to theatre and dr Yilmaz made sure I was comfortable and made sure I was looked after.
Next thing I remember is being back in my room. Less than 1.5 hours. After 2 hours I was up and walking. No pain, no gas pain just a feeling of tiredness.
Dr Yilmaz came to see me before the end of the day to make sure I was ok. Each morning and evening he would come and say hi. On the morning of my discharge I had a drain removed. During this time dr Yilmaz sang Andrea Bocelli to me, wrote me a letter and took a selfie.
AYT then took me to my hotel and even offered me support on where to sightsee and shop.
Olivia was just amazing, even when I changed my flight details, AYT took me to the airport for my journey home Olivia has been in touch with me since returning to the Uk to ensure I am well.
I can not thank AYT, Medstar and dr Namik Yilmaz enough for their kindness, support and the chance to change my life.
