Cosmetic surgery in Turkey

So I’ve book my surgery in Turkey for this time next week . Flights cost £500
and the deposit was £300. Now I’m thinking of not going but £800 is an awful lot of money to loose . Has anyone used the company ‘clineca’ before ? The surgeons name is dr alp ercan if anyone knows him.

Hi
Thinking of turkey facelift and have researched a bit.
The clinic I was talking to asked for £250 upfront then to bring the balance in cash to be given over before the surgery - is this common practice?

I wouldn't risk it. Did they give you the name of the Dr so you can research if he's reputable?

I had rhinoplasty in Turkey and this seems to be very common practice (from my experience in different research groups and speaking to other people who have had rhino there). I paid £500 deposit via bank transfer and the rest in cash the day before the surgery. I think it’s very normal over there for this to be the process, they also seem to prefer cash in your home currency. I would make sure you are 100% happy with your surgeon before booking anything though, as generally the deposits are non-refundable and it’s important to speak to other patients of theirs to know if they had a good experience or had any issues.

paying surgery with cash is very common there

Apparently everyone on mumsnet knows someone who went to turkey for surgery and woke up with only one kidney 😂 who knew so many people only have one kidney!
