Reviews of patients treated for Diabetes type 2


I’m very happy to be in this hospital the doctors are very good and helpful the hospital is 100 %good and the transition team Is excellent Especial Rita she helps a lot
Liv hospital is a terrible clinic! We were very disappointed, it’s good that they went to the memorial on time from there and didn’t perform the operation on my grandfather, conducted an examination in another clinic where they began to fully deal with him and sort out his problem with a council of doctors, in Livonia we just shouted that the situation was an emergency and it was necessary urgently to take action and just wanted to put on the operation the next day without looking at the tests and the like !!!! Лив хоспитал ужасная клиника! Очень разочаровались, хорошо что вовремя от туда ушли в мемориал и не сделали операцию дедушке, провели обследование в другой клинике где им начали полностью заниматься и разбирать его проблему с консилиумом врачей, в ливе же просто мы кричали о том что ситуация была чп и нужно было срочно предпринимать меры и хотели просто положить на операцию на следующий день не просмотрев анализы и тому подобное!!!!
Good day!!! The fee was not high, the tests were expensive, the doctor’s attention was normal, he didn’t say anything new about the results, added another pill and corrected, said the tests were good, except for the sugar index. Добрый день!!! Плата была не высокая, Анализы стоили дорого, внимание врача нормальное, от результатов ничего нового не сказал, добавил еще одну таблетку и подкоректировал, сказал что анализы хорошие, кроме показателя сахара.
Everything is good with us! What was planned, we did. Now at home. Thank you very much for organizing our trip! Everything went well, there was no difficulty Всё у нас хорошо! То, что было запланировано, мы сделали. Сейчас уже дома. Спасибо большое за организацию нашей поездки! Всё прошло хорошо, никаких затруднений не было
All was good. The only thing that overshadowed, the first reception of the doctor. I had to sell more than two hours, although I arrived 15 minutes before the appointed time. Everything else was on top! Все было хорошо. Единственное, что омрачило, первый приём доктора. Пришлось продать более двух часов, хотя пришла за 15 минут до назначенного времени. Все остальное было на высоте!
All liked it. There are not enough translators and therefore girls translators are always under stress. Well, they are great. Doctors, coordinators and equipment liked everything. Minus that the clinic is far from the city and transfer from the clinic only once. Все понравилось. Не хватает переводчиков и поэтому девочки переводчицы всегда в стрессе. Ну они молодцы. Врачи, координаторы и оборудование все понравилось. Минус что клиника далеко от города и трансфер от клиники только один раз.
Good afternoon! Today I would like to tell you about such clinic, which heals from the disease of type 2 diabetes for life. In March, I met a doctor from Istanbul with Alper Chelik and after the examination he offered me an operation called "Metabolic Surgery" and invited him to his clinic. Since I had been suffering from diabetes for 12 years and no means of treatment had lowered my blood sugar I did not hesitate to agree to a unique operation that one of the eight doctors in the world is doing. Have made operation. I start a new life without diabetes. It is good that despite the fact that Alperbey is one of the eight doctors in the world, in this unique direction he created a team that can only be envied. In the clinic, perfect cleanliness, beds and wards are equipped with the most modern equipment, every patient from the side of medical personnel is given special attention around the clock. Thanks to the team created by Alper Celik and his skill come people from all over the world. Energetic, modest doctor has no boundaries and every week he heals from diabetes 10-15 people.
I want to thank Dr. Alperbey for all the good that he has done for me and for all the patients who happily left the clinic. And may God help him in healing people from this disease!
Добрый день! Сегодня я хотел бы Вам рассказать о такой клинике, которая исцеляет от болезни сахарного диабета 2-типа на всю жизнь. В марте месяца мне удалось встретится доктором из Стамбула с Алпером Челиком и после обследования он предложил мне операцию которая называется "Метаболической Хирургией" и пригласил в свою клинику. Так как я болел диабетом уже 12 лет и никакие средства лечение не понижали мой сахар в крови я не раздумывая согласился на уникальную операцию, которую делает один из восьми врачей в мире. Сделали операцию. Начинаю новую жизнь без диабета. Радует то, что несмотря на то что Алпербей является одним из восьми докторов в мире, в этом уникальном направлении создал команду,которой только можно позавидовать. В клинике идеальная чистота, койки и палаты оборудованы самыми современными оборудованиями, каждому пациенту со стороны медицинского персонала оказано особое внимание круглосуточно. Благодаря команде созданным Алпером Челиком и его мастерству приезжают люди со всего света. Энергичность,скромность доктора не имеет границ и каждую неделю он исцеляет от диабета 10-15 человек.
Хочу поблагодарить доктора Алпербея за все добро, что сделал для меня и от всех пациентов, которые с радостью покидали клинику. И пусть Бог поможет ему в исцелении людей от этого недуга!
I lived with diabetes for about 22 years and was injected with insulin for 12 years. At the moment, I have nothing in my life that associates with diabetes. Before the operation, I had sugar 12 and now 7. Before the operation, I weighed 107 kg, and now my weight is 59 kg Я прожила с диабетом около 22 лет и кололась инсулином в течении 12 лет. На сегодняшний момент, у меня в жизни нет ничего, что ассоцируется с диабетом. До операции у меня сахар был 12 а сейчас 7. До операции я весила 107 кг, а сейчас мой вес 59 кг
Before the operation, I weighed 103 kg, 6 months after the operation, my weight dropped to 80 kg and I do not use any medications anymore. My sugar fell to 7th on the 6th month after the operation and still continues to decline. I feel more positive, happy and calm До операции я весила 103 кг, спустя 6 месяцев после операции, у меня вес снизился до 80 кг и уже не пользуюсь никакими лекарствами. Мой сахар снизился до 7-ми на 6-м месяце после операции и все еще продолжает снижаться. Чувствую себя более позитивной, счастливой и спокойной
I became acquainted with diabetes when I was 30. After that I became very aggressive and nervous. After the operation, I dropped about 30 kg and now I do not take even an analgesic Я познакомился с диабетом когда мне было 30. После этого я стал очень агрессивным и нервным. После операции я сбросил около 30 кг и сейчас не принимаю даже болеутоляющее
İlgi çok iyi randevuya uyuluyor. Saatinde alınıyor doktorlar güleryüzle ve deneyimli insan gibi muamele görüyorsunuz kaliteli tavsiye ediyorum ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
the best hospital in Istanbul.
I've only had good experiences here. It's pricey but you can make actual appointments, for which you are generally seen on time, and the checkout process is efficient. The staff are well-trained and the bureaucratic process is well-refined. Of course, the doctors are top notch. Value added: it's a very nice hospital in aesthetic terms.
I did my full medical checkup here on Friday(with prior appointment). It was really amazing 5 stars experience and here are the positive things about this hospital -Free transportation for the patients from Bangkok international airport to the Hospital or hotels nearby. -Professional and enough staff available to help you. -Amazing ambience, clean, decorated like a 5 stars hotel!! -It took around 4 hours to complete the whole checkup including meeting the Doctor for the results (written report will get after 2 days) -If you speak Arabic, this is best place for you as they have translators and some staff knows some Arabic words. -open mini-buffet included if you take the medical checkup. Here are the only 2 negatives -This hospital prices are high compared to other hospitals in bangkok. But it worth it as you will feel at home!! Clean, helpful and always smiling and welcoming staff!! Well organized place. -It takes more waiting time at the x-ray and ultrasound, however, it is mentioned that the whole checkup takes around 4 to 6 hours. It took 4 hours. Five stars to the best hospital I have ever been!!!
As a tourist you don't know what to expect when you're out of Australia. I got some mystery illness and the way I got treated, at Sourasky Tel Aviv Medical centre was outstanding, the speed, the ease, the cheerfulness were great. I’d particularly like to mention Dr Rana Matal. If you end up there do yourself a favour and ask for her. She’s excellent.
The best treatment, high professionalism, humanity, attitude towards patients is here and only here. Cardio department, you guys a deep bow for all your work, intensive care unit - thank you all very much, you are Gods, you are doing miracles, your professionalism is beyond praise.
Hello, I wanted to ask. We need kidney surgery. PLEASE TELL ME. WHO DID. IN THIS CLINIC. PLEASE TELL ME. WE REFUSED THE KIDNEYS. GET HEMODIALYSIS
Service at the highest level. The staff is very courteous, they always try to do everything possible to ensure that the client is satisfied. Special thanks to Ansar, the coordinator of this hospital.
Everyrhing is like a hospital supose to by... GREAT JOB.
Notaufnahme 12 Std.gewartet und durchweg unmotiviertes, unfreundliches Personal welches überhaupt keine Einfühlsamkeit zeigt. Der Job muss doch sowieso gemacht werden, warum nicht freundlich und mitfühlend? Auch dem Mitarbeiter würde es sicherlich dann am Ende des Tages besser gehen!Wo soll das bloß hinführen?
Hastane okadar sorumsuz ki çocuğun detaylı usg si çekildi 450tl para ödendi okadar islerini kötü yapıyolar ki çekilen detaylı ultrasonun cdsini kaydetmemisler boş cd vermişler aradığımda düzelteceğini söylediler haber bile vermediler, bikac gün sonra almaya gittiğimde cdyi kaybettiklerini görüntülerin gittiğini söylediler,hasta haklarına sikayet ettim geri dönüş sağlayacağını söylendi oda yok aman doğum falan yapmayın burda çocuğu da kaybederler..
Çoğu zaman sakin doktorlar ve personel gayet ilgi ve alakalı, tavsiye ederim.
sehr nettes Personal... man wird rund um die Uhr perfekt betreut... danke für alles.
I underwent a surgery in the hospital performed by Dr.med.Holm.Edelman,and I had to spend a week in the hospital. The doctor was very talented and took care of me after the surgery. While staying at the hospital, I felt like I’m home because of the hospitable staff and friendly reception. They offered me many services after the surgery, including regular therapies and delcious food!
FAQ about Diabetes type 2 Treatment
What is type 2 diabetes?
Type 2 diabetes (also called adult-onset or non-insulin-dependent) is a longstanding metabolic disorder. The body resists or doesn’t produce enough insulin to maintain glucose (sugar) level in blood.

✔️ Drug therapy cannot cure diabetes. Medications help to control blood sugar and stop the disease development.
How to choose the diabetes treatment center?

- Doctor’s experience. The success rate of the best treatment for diabetes type 2 depends on the endocrinologist qualification. Top specialists have certificates which confirm their professionalism.
- Accreditation. It guarantees maintaining of international guidelines. Certified hospitals provide high-quality services and ensure patient’s safety during the procedures.
- Patient’s reviews. People who have undergone treatment in the diabetes outpatient clinics share their experience. They provide information about the hospital stay, the best specialists, and pricing.
Diagnostics in the best hospitals for diabetes
The complete type 2 diabetes examination in the best diabetes treatment centers includes:
- A1C (glycated hemoglobin) test indicates average blood sugar level for the last 2-3 months. The higher blood sugar level is, the more hemoglobin a person has.
- Random blood sugar test is a blood glucose level exam performed for non-fasting people to diagnose diabetes. The test can be taken at any time.
- Fasting blood sugar test is taken after an overnight fast to detect insulin resistance or diabetes.
- Glucose tolerance test is an oral exam that measures body's ability to regulate sugar metabolism.
Which treatment is the best for diabetes?
Medication and insulin therapy
Specialists of diabetes outpatient clinics prescribe drug therapy in addition to diet and physical activity. Such complex approach helps patients to achieve target blood sugar level. The conclusion about the type of medication depends on the sugar level and the presence of diabetes-related problems.
In some cases, specialists in diabetes treatment centers prescribe insulin therapy. Using this treatment method a patient controls blood glucose level and can avoid complications of the disease. Patients have to inject insulin. They shouldn’t take it orally, because it can be digested.
During the consultation with an endocrinologist, the pros and cons of each medication are discussed. The best treatment for diabetes type 2 depends on the kinds of the drugs and aspects of the patient’s health.
Weight loss surgery
Diabetic people with BMI (body mass index) over 35 are candidates for the obesity surgery. 55-99% of patients achieve healthy blood sugar level after the procedure. The success rate of bariatric surgery depends on the operation method.
During the bariatric procedure, a surgeon reduces stomach size. That’s why people cannot eat a significant amount of food. Bypass surgery is considered the latest diabetes treatment. During the procedure, a surgeon bypasses a part of small intestine. It is more effective in comparison with other methods of obesity surgery.
