Reviews
You can trust both the professionalism of the hospital and the professionalism of all the doctors and receive your treatment there. Translated fromTurkish
Despite pressing the emergency call button, no one came to our room for a considerable amount of time. After my wife developed an allergic reaction to an antibiotic, we experienced serious problems with the IV line. We repeatedly informed the staff that the IV was not working, yet attempts were made to force fluid through the blocked line, which caused significant swelling in her arm.
We repeatedly requested that the doctor come and evaluate her, but the doctor never arrived. We were left without proper information, reinsurance, or an appropriate solution. As a result, we lost confidence in the care being provided and decided to leave the hospital and continue her treatment elsewhere.
We expected much higher standards of patient safety, communication, and weekend staffing from a well-known hospital like Memorial. I sincerely hope the hospital management investigates this incident thoroughly so that other patients and their families do not experience the same situation.
My wife received treatment at the General Surgery Department of Memorial Bahçelievler Hospital between June 18-21, 2026. The first three days of treatment proceeded smoothly. However, we experienced great disappointment due to the events that occurred after the shift change on the last day.
Despite pressing the emergency call button, no one came to our room for a long time. Following a reaction after antibiotics, there were serious problems with intravenous access procedures. Despite repeatedly informing them that the serum was not flowing, they attempted to perform the procedure without checking the intravenous access, and swelling occurred in my wife's arm.
We requested that a doctor be called, but the doctor did not come. Upon this, we stated that we wanted to leave the hospital. We did not see any approach that adequately informed us about the continuation of treatment or attempted to find a solution. Therefore, we decided to interrupt the treatment and continue it at another hospital.
I would have expected a well-established hospital like Memorial to be much more careful, especially regarding weekend on-call organization and patient safety. I hope that the injustice we experienced will be investigated and that similar situations will not happen to other patients. Translated fromTurkish
The other staff members were also extremely attentive. All our needs and deficiencies in our room were met immediately, even exceeding our expectations. The cleanliness, order, and quality of service at the hospital are truly commendable.
We would like to thank all the healthcare professionals involved, especially Ms. Hazal. It is a hospital we can wholeheartedly recommend. Translated fromTurkish
Based on this information, I arrived at the hospital at 9:00 AM and waited for approximately 1.5 hours. While I understood that the waiting time was uncertain, after waiting so long, I wanted to know how much longer I would have to wait and asked the assistant for information.
However, the assistant's manner of communication made me quite uncomfortable. She answered without looking me in the face, attended to other tasks while I was speaking, and went off to another area without answering my question, making me feel disregarded.
Despite trying to calmly obtain information for about 10 minutes, I did not receive a sufficient explanation. The uncertainty of the waiting time is understandable; However, I believe that the patient should be informed and communicated with during the waiting period.
I think that patient satisfaction and the quality of communication are important in a healthcare institution, and I request that this situation I experienced be investigated and the necessary evaluation be made. Translated fromTurkish
I expected the staff members to be more friendly but unfortunately they are not. No smile, no nothing.
Plus the air conditioning inside the hospital is SO bad,
I would also like to thank Nurse Melike İpek, Nurse Faruk Tunahan Durmuş, and Nurse Esra for their care, support, and professional approach. Thanks to them, we felt safe and valued. We left the hospital extremely satisfied. I thank everyone involved and wish them continued success in their work. 🌷 Translated fromTurkish
We would like to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful Prof. Dr. Abdulmuttalip Şimşek, who dealt with my husband's case in an exemplary manner, both professionally and humanely.
His high professional value is complemented by his empathetic personality and closeness to the patient and his relatives.
Also, his entire team deserves all our appreciation: prompt, professional, clear in their explanations.
A tremendous role in our experience at Memorial from the beginning to the present has been played by translator Violeta Vilsan, to whom we would like to express our gratitude: a warm, professional and capable man, who made us feel at home and who spared no effort in helping us constantly.
