I recently had an incredible experience with Dr. Osman Tuğrul Güzeldir and the team at Koru Private Hospital. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized by Mehmet Emin Karagöz, who ensured every detail was taken care of – from pick-up to scheduling appointments with the doctors, addressing my concerns, and making sure I was comfortable throughout the process. Dr. Osman Tuğrul Güzeldir was exceptional. He was well-spoken, straightforward, and took the time to clearly explain the procedure and what to expect. His professionalism and skill gave me complete confidence, and I am very happy with the results. The staff and facilities at Koru Private Hospital were equally impressive. The professionalism and care I received exceeded my expectations, making this a truly positive and seamless experience. Highly recommended!

2020 was supposed to be the the start of my journey at KCM Clinic for a full face & neck lift upper & lowers eye lids. Then covid hit us so I couldn’t go! Tried again that same year in August but for personal reasonings it wasn’t meant to be. Fast forward January 2025, I was at KCM Clinic on a Patients Group Trip ( a group of patients who travel together with a patient manager, in my case Kim ) I arrived with every expectation of having what I desired eventually! With the thorough examinations & diagnostic tests unfortunately I wasn’t able to have the surgery due to several factors. I was devastated! But i smoked, i had anemia , ( discovered via the post op tests when I arrived ) and i was on medication that made my hands swell twice the size. So , with another consultation with Dr Luniewska, she agreed to preform upper eyelid correction. I was happy to still be having something but grateful it was under local anaesthesia and I knew I wasn't taking any risks. 6 Months later with a proper diet , addition of vitamin d/c and arnica plus i stopped smoking enforced with all the advice given from Kim and Dr Luniewska I finally had my dream op on the Summer Group Trip! All the medical team are lovely. Dr Luniewska is very professional. She takes no risks and does not give false expectations. The nurses were good and knew there job well as well as the co ordinators based in the clinic. The clinic is spotless! Kim the international patients manager was super professional/caring and their when you need anything! Even brought us a latte once we were allowed to drink. If your thinking about surgery abroad there’s only one place and that's KCM Clinic especially group trips if your nervous or have no one to travel with. I highly recommend and I also encourage everyone to take the pre op instructions carefully and prepare. I'm now one week post op and im healing perfectly and already starting to see the results. Thank you! Maybe see you again :) Debbie Williams

In my personal opinion without a hint of a doubt, the best surgeon in this country. I researched for a long time search to find a surgeon for my whole transition; I found Dra. Vega. From the very beginning both, her secretary, who is wonderful and herself have treated me with respect; closeness and professionalism, caring at all times and addressing my doubts and concerns. The first surgery I did with her was in Moncloa, in Madrid and I noticed she knows how to choose the team of professionals so you feel safe and in great hands. The post-operative was surprisingly smooth and I had no pain and issues at all. There are no words to describe her greatness, I would not put myself in other hands than hers!.

Having been stuck for months with a catheter as a result or BPH and moved from one NHS waiting list to another, I, out of curiosity, put a query into a website about getting the required procedure done abroad. I promptly received a reply from Nick Mertziotis to say that the operation the NHS and a private provider had said I needed was not recommended and he suggested a couple of others that were more appropriate and that he could do them for less than half the price private providers in the UK were looking for. He said I would be on the plane home two days after the operation. I looked him up and quickly realised he was a well-qualified, experienced and respected expert in his field. I asked a few further questions, all the time hoping an NHS appointment letter would arrive. He responded personally, promptly and helpfully to each of them. I checked out the various procedures available for my condition and became convinced that what he was suggesting was clinically optimal. He reassured me that he would do the surgery himself. Eventually, I decided to go for it. Surgery was booked for the following week and my wife and I booked flights and accommodation in Athens. We had a couple of days as tourists, then a thorough and efficient pre-op and the operation first thing the following morning. There was a full surgical team attached to me. After a few hours, I found myself back in the ward. By this stage, Mr Mertziotis had already called my wife and had arranged to meet with her to say the operation had gone well. For the following 24 hours I received very good nursing care in a small ward. Mr Mertziotis and his assistant doctor came in to see me the day of the operation and the following day and explained the procedure they had carried out, which, in the event, was a combination of two separate procedures, due to the nature of the obstruction. I was discharged after 24 hours and told to return the following day (a public holiday) to have the catheter removed. This happened, I was able to pee freely and after a final consultation with Mr Mertziotis, I was able to get on the plane home the following morning. Since getting the catheter removed, I have had no pain, including on the four-hour flight. I am home and feeling fine and am having to stop myself returning to normal activities too soon. Overall, while there were always ‘what if?’ worries about the enormity of the decision I had made, I felt throughout that I trusted Mr Mertziotis and his team and that trust has been entirely justified. I encountered the kind of medical intervention and care that I would like to think should be the norm but unfortunately wasn’t my experience in the NHS. While it is a big decision, for me it has been the right one and the experience was a very positive one. I would thoroughly recommend Mr Mertziotis and his team.

I had 3 major surgeries with Dr. Herrero: FFS (Facial Feminisation Surgery), Colo-vaginoplasty and then a combination of 360° liposuction with lipo sculpting to breasts and buttocks over a period of around a year. The FFS was perhaps even more life-changing than the colo-vaginoplasty in terms of everyday life. The results were fantastic and while I may opt for some minor additional changes years later. I find no fault in the work done, the recovery or the experience. For a more mathematical response; in gender recognition software my face was seen as 80%+ masculine before the surgery and after recovery, the score was consistently 96% female. Most cis-women I know who tried this software scored 70-80% female. I could not expect anything better. As for the colo-vaginoplasty... Simply amazing. I had a Gynaecologist in Taiwan give me a vaginal inspection recently, she asked me when I had my hysterectomy while she was using the speculum. It was that good! As for sensitivity, mind-blowing. It took 3 or 4 months to heal enough to learn that, but 3 or 4 years later I am still amazed at what this body can experience now. As for the BBL and lipo work, again, very happy. Not as life-changing as the other two results, but the quality is just as good and I am very happy with my body in a way I never thought I would be. Also, Dr. Herrero is a gentleman, kind, took the time to explain things, was gentle and understood my needs completely.

I have had an online video consultation with the doctor and Aida. They both seemed very welcoming, helpful and assuring. I am hoping to proceed with them in the future.
