Robotic spinal surgery in Turkey

Provider: Turan & Turan Health Group
Date: Feb 2023

Mr Massoud, aged 69, a Professor of Political Sciences from Nigeria, contacted Turan & Turan Health Group in Turkey complaining of leg and back problems that were affecting both his work and his personal life. Now, following surgery using the Mazor X™ Robotic Guidance System, he is fully mobile and pain-free.

"I went to an orthopedic physician in Nigeria, and the physician suggested spinal surgery! Therefore, on the advice of my colleague, I made the decision to look for medical care outside of Nigeria.

Turan & Turan Health Group acquired my medical records and obtained opinions from their spinal surgeon. These procedures were all completed online. I made a decision on his treatment after gathering all the facts, treatment alternatives, and trip arrangements. Turkey is one of the top locations for both tourist and medical care, so I went there.

In Bursa, I was met at the airport and accompanied throughout the entire process. The examination procedure began when I arrived at the clinic and ended the same day.

Dr Yunus Uysal, my surgeon, examined me. His diagnosis was that I was suffering from spinal stenosis, or the narrowing of the spinal canal, as well as disc herniation.

Many individuals find the idea of having spinal surgery to be frightening. Accuracy, patient outcomes, and recovery time concerns are frequent. Patients may relax, though, knowing that spinal surgery with the Mazor X Guidance System will go well.

Dr Uysal recommended spinal surgery utilizing the Mazor X™ Robotic Guidance System based on my health.

After the operation, I began to walk the next day. On the third day following surgery, I resumed my regular motion, and on the fourth day, I was discharged. I was delighted with how the procedure turned out."
