Treatment: Bridge (12 tooth bridge, 6 implants) Provider:
Medlife Group Date: Nov 2018
John Kavanagh from Ireland had his first step of dental treatment in Turkey with Medlife Group in Izmir and was impressed by their professional team. He will visit again soon for the second step which is going to be for a crown procedure and Medlife are look forward to hosting him in their country once more.
"I’ve just been to Turkey and had my trip (bar flights) covered by Medlife Group. In the weeks before I made my decision I was talking with Onur who works for them, and he gave me all of the information I needed and was available 24/7 for help with any questions I had. He also let me know that Medlife Group would be covering my accommodation, transfers to and from the airport and dentist. I had to get 2 flights from Ireland to get to Izmir, and although my first flight was delayed, my transfer waited in the airport for an extra 4 hours until 1AM to pick me up. They put me up in a lovely 4 star hotel. Volkan covered my trip while I was over there and he brought me to the dentist for each appointment I had and even offered to bring me around the city/organize ferry trips etc.
A big deciding factor in choosing to go with Medlife Group was their level of English. I have spoken to 3 members of Medlife Group, Aycan, Volkan and Onur; and they were all fluent in English and knew exactly what I was asking each time. I have a 2 part treatment so I have to return in November and I will definitely be choosing Medlife Group to cover my trip when I go back. I was really happy with the treatment I received. My full procedure is 28 crowns and 4 implants to be crowned. This is by no means an easy job and I was surprised that there was little to know pain even during 5 root canal treatments. There was a mix up with the medication I received on the first day. I was given the antibiotic Augmentin but I am allergic to it, but they found a replacement for it straight away once I told Volkan.
I’ll make sure to finish this post when I arrive home after my treatment is fully finished, but I’m extremely happy with everything so far and I’ll give a 10/10!"
