Real stories. Real satisfaction.
I had my rhinoplasty at this clinic and had a very positive experience. The staff were professional and supportive from the consultation through recovery, and everything was well organized. The surgeon explained the procedure clearly, and I felt comfortable and well cared for throughout. I’m happy with my results and would recommend this clinic to anyone considering rhinoplasty.
Just had Gastric Sleeve Surgery and a Gastric Band removal surgery completed on 24/05/24 by Prof. Dr. Cengis Eris at the hospital in Istanbul. From start to finish the entire Badge team have been nothing short of amazing. From pick up at the airport to your return back home they have been in contact and making sure I fully understand what is happening and what to expect. My Co-ordinator Nesrine has been amazing. I traveled by myself and was worried this was going to be too much but the team at Badge really take fantastic care of you. If you are debating if this is right thing to do or if this is the right place to have your surgery I can’t stress enough just how amazing and resasurred the team has made me feel. Although I’m only really a couple of days out and will see the results over the next coming weeks and months. I am relatively pain free and able to manage my normal activities which surprised me but shows just great they are at what they do.
I had a hair transplant a week ago and I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help me through the process than Badge Clinic. The transfers from the airport to the hotel to the clinic were great.
5 stars 💫
I recently underwent a breast lift with implants and 360/back liposuction at Badge Clinic, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience.
First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to Nurses Irem and Aleyna. Their friendliness and willingness to help made me feel at ease throughout my stay. Their professional care truly stood out.
A huge thank you to Dr. Mete for his incredible work. His expertise in performing my procedures was evident, and I am thrilled with the results after 3 days. His attention to detail and commitment to patient satisfaction are commendable.
I also want to thank Nesrine for her excellent organizational skills. She took care of everything, from coordinating my stay to managing transfers between the hotel and hospital, ensuring that everything ran smoothly.
The team at Badge Clinic is remarkably organized and dedicated to their patients’ well-being. I wholeheartedly recommend Badge Clinic to anyone considering these procedures.
I was a patient at Badge Clinic. I was impressed by how well they organized to pick me up from the airport, then take me to the hotel and get me back on time. They were very well organized, the staff is pleasant, but the organizers were in touch with me to be sure that everything is done professionally and on time; I also have friends who were patients at this clinic and were satisfied. Thank you Badge clinic so we will definitely see you soon.
Very good staff!! Even the cleaner was lovely and supportive, I was quite scared as I came alone but they made you feel comfortable at all times! And asked if you needed anything a lot! I would definitely recommend badge clinic. I’ve been in very very little pain and the procedure ran very smoothly! 10/10
I am very pleased with the services of the clinic, the team of doctors and nurses are very helpful in every situation. The procedure was successful, tummy tuck with 360 liposuction, I am very pleased. A wonderful hotel designed for rest, drivers always on time. A clinic worth recommending.
I did the hair transplant. Everyone was super cool and nice. My Coordinator Nisrine walked me through all of the steps so I knew what to expect through the procedure and for my after care. The whole process they make sure you are comfortable and accommodated. The hotel they put you up at is really nice, the Free Breakfast Buffet is the BOMB and so is the room service menu. I had a nice stay and my procedure was as painless as possible. 10/10 Would recommend to a friend!

The hospital was clean and the nurses were so caring ! Everything is on point ! Everything is punctual, you don’t get to wait long to be seen by doctor. The drivers are so polite. The hotel was amazing with helpful lovely stuff! I highly recommend Badge clinic!! I will definitely go back.
I went to Turkey to get my new healthy Hollywood smile. Badge Clinic was recommended to me and my initial experience with Miray was very positive. On my arrival I met Nesrine – my medical coordinator. She took excellent care of my dental journey. She was professional, always available and ready to help me. Nesrine went above and beyond to assist me and I am forever grateful for her effort. I would recommend Badge Clinic to everyone. Their customer service and care are exceptional. Thank you Nesrine and Miray!
Badge clinic was amazing! I had nurses with me 24/7 who were there to help me understand what was happening during the procedure! Dr. Sarper was very kind and has done 100 liposuctions! He never made me feel uncomfortable and made sure I understood what was best for my body! Highly recommend!
I wholeheartedly endorse this dental clinic for their exceptional patient-centered approach. Their quality of care is unmatched, accompanied by thorough explanations throughout the treatment process. They attentively address concerns, offer invaluable advice, and extend continuous support. Thanks to this clinic, my dental concerns are resolved, bringing immense happiness. I enthusiastically encourage everyone to experience their outstanding services!
Amazing results for my lipo. I initially had my doubts as to how everything was going to turn out, but my goodness, has Dr Mete come through! I’m so pleased with my results and the body line I hadn’t seen in ages! Everything was taken care of from the arrival right down to the departure. The first day of my surgery, the nurses were available throughout the day and night. I had a hard time the first few days even getting up and about, but support was on hand and they came to check up on me several times. The hospital was very clean and the room was definitely of a high standard for a hospital room ( defo VIP like room). Only thing I would say is get ready to use a google translator on your phone as English is obviously second language understandably and go with your eyes open as the first few days felt like death to me (so take someone to help you unlike me as i went alone)but the results are well worth it! Thanks to the staff and Dr Metexx.
My experience with badge clinic has been amazing. The help and support I received both before and in Istanbul has been flawless. My coordinator Enes has been very helpful and answered all my questions. While I was in Istanbul my Coordinator Nebia has been extremely pleasant and made me feel welcomed. My surgeon Dr Mete has done a great job and for once when he asked if I had any questions I was speechless. My experience thus far has been amazing and I would definitely recommend Badge Clinic.
The crew was very helpful and informative. It’s clear that they want you to be as comfortable as possible throughout the process. The consultant is just one message away and fast in responding to your questions and every need. The surgery went well and I can’t wait to see the results. The transportation was also very precise and on time for every trip. 👍🏾
My girlfriend had breast augmentation with Dr. Mete in May 2024, and it’s been 2 months. We really love the results. What a professional team! Thanks to my medical consultant, Joey, for helping us through everything.
A great service with amazing people. At the beginning i was quite nervous for the fact that my teeth were a mess. I was always afraid of dentists but their excellent way of working made me confident that i am in very good hands. Thank you and i will definitely see you again.🙏
Excellent customer care from Nesrine and Miray. I am very happy with service I received- my new nose looks amazing. Nurse Team was always available and ready to assist. Nesrine who was my medical coordinator went above and beyond to help me out, she even done shopping for me when I couldn’t go out from the hospital! I felt like I was a part of a family rather than just a client. Everyone was professional and so supportive. I will definitely be coming back to Badge Clinic in the future! Thank you

Your dream appearance is closer than ever — guided by professionals and delivered through four simple, trusted steps.
The gastric balloon is a temporary, inflatable device inserted endoscopically into the stomach. Once in place, it occupies space in the stomach, limiting the amount of food consumed at each meal and promoting portion control. This helps patients develop healthier eating habits and achieve sustainable weight loss.
Gastric balloon treatment is especially suitable for:
The procedure is simple, minimally invasive, and performed under mild sedation:
Pre-Procedure Assessment: Patients undergo a thorough medical evaluation, including blood tests and imaging.
Balloon Insertion: The deflated balloon is inserted through the mouth into the stomach using an endoscope.
Inflation: Once correctly positioned, the balloon is filled with saline or air to the desired size.
Post-Procedure Care: Patients receive instructions on diet, activity, and follow-up visits.
The entire procedure takes about 20–30 minutes, and patients can usually go home the same day.
Most patients experience mild nausea, bloating, or discomfort during the first few days after insertion. These symptoms usually resolve within a week. Patients can gradually return to normal eating habits while following a structured diet plan.
First week: Adjusting to the balloon and diet
1–6 months: Significant weight loss and lifestyle adaptation
6–12 months: Balloon removal and continued weight management
Badge Health provides personalized follow-up care, dietary guidance, and support to maximize results.
While gastric balloon is generally safe, minor risks include nausea, vomiting, or mild abdominal discomfort. Rarely, balloon deflation or migration can occur. Badge Health ensures careful patient selection, experienced medical staff, and continuous monitoring to minimize risks.
