Honestly I don’t know where to start my whole Experience was a nightmare. I got a mummy makeover including tummy tuck liposuction and a BBL. After getting back to England I noticed my belly button was very Discharged and inflamed. I then contacted Barrak and no replie I contacted my doctor and was immediately put on antibiotics. That day I got my blood count after a blood test and it was double what it should be I was then rushed to hospital by ambulance and they said from my infection being so high that is why my blood count was double. A few days later I was contacted by my surgeon to be told it looked fine I then said about what had happened to me and I was told I will get a phone call three days later. By then I have a bad fever and developed a massive lump on my tummy tucks car around 200cm long and over 5 cm wide. I then took myself to hospital and was rushed in for emergency surgery. I was in hospital for over a week and had to have more drains be opened up the whole way from each hip And had to have it all cleaned as the infection was all over my stomach. I informed the Badge Clinic of what had happened to me and never got a reply I then consisted of messaging over 10 times and finally got a reply of saying these things happen. I was then informed in the hospital I contacted MRSA and that’s why none of my antibiotics are working and my infection was so bad. I’m lucky I am still alive honestly the after-care has been horrendous and if I had an option I would’ve never gone with Badge Clinic. I’ve left reviews on the Badge Clinic Facebook and now I have been blocked off it. Two of my friends came out and got similar surgeries both of ended up with horrendous infections and one is going back in six months for correction surgery another one has got a huge lump from her BBL and they have said it will not go because it is fat so she will have to get corrective surgery as well. Another girl that we met out there has had to have her nippleremoved due to necrosis. And also another patient I’m out there who stayed in regular contact with his having to go back for surgery as her tummy tuck went wrong. Also one of the patients we met out there has come forward thank she got sexually assaulted while in Burraks care. Their response was to just block her. The reason there is no bad reviews is because no one is coming forward because they are scared of not being able to get the corrective surgery. There is a reason for it being so cheap is because the after-care and the care while you were out there is shocking please think twice about going to this man!!

Very professional and genuinely friendly staff. Dr. Burak explained the details very clearly from the beginning and set realistic expectations for my lipo surgery. And the outcome has definitely surpassed these. He made me feel relaxed and safe under his care which made me trust his judgement and skill. I’m highly satisfied with my experience at Badge Clinic and recommend them and Dr Burak to anyone looking for liposuction surgery.

I had my face and neck lift by Dr Burak 5 months ago back in Dec on 25th and I am still suffering as my left face side is still swallowing . The recovery of my face right side Differs from the left side , I can now see a difference in the look between the left and the right side. After the operation, my left eye was red and swallowed I couldn’t open my eyes , they give antibiotics drop while I was in the hospital which helped me opening my eyes but it didn’t cure it . When I was back to uk, I went to the hospital and it turned out I got herpes in my eyes that affected the cornea badly I now have to live with the symptoms and a possibility of blindness for the rest of my life.
In summary of my experience with Badge Clinic and Dr Burak , in general the clinic is good and response promptly to my equerries , transportation from the hotel to and from the airport and the hospital is good and reliable .
I just don’t feel that I had good experience with the operation by Dr Burak and I feel his communication while I was in the hospital was not up to the standard I would expect it . If the time turn back I would not do my operation in Turkey !

Review by Mmw11 months ago
I have just arrived back in England yesterday after my visit to The Badge Clinic. I am writing this honest review to help others when trying to decide in which company and surgeon to use as I know how important it is to hear other people’s opinions when researching different surgeons to use for our procedures.
So, I had personally researched for just under a year for breast lift and implants as my boobs had become a deflated 38DD after breast feeding and weight loss. They was fine under clothes but when naked in front of my partner I felt so self conscious and knew I need to do this for my confidence.
My partner came with me to Istanbul where we were greeted by our driver in a luxury vehicle outside the airport. He drove us to the hotel, I thought we were going to the Radisson park Inn hotel but on arrival it had been upgraded to a 5 star hotel right in the centre of the city called Ramada Plaza. The hotel was lovely, huge room, with huge bed and tv mini bar tea coffee etc, also a big en-suite with walk in shower. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant that night which was lovely and good value. The next morning we were picked up at 10.30am and taken to the Academic Private Hospital and showed to the room. It was a lovely private room with en-suite and tv. The nurses were lovely some spoke some English some not so we used google translate and got along fine with this.
They bought my partner lunch ( I obviously couldn’t eat because of surgery but they still looked after him which was kind ) I had bloods taken and filled out some forms waited for a while and then Dr Burak came in for my consultation ( I had previously spoken on phone with him when I was in England aswell He assessed my breasts and we spoke about my expectations I showed him a photo of my desired look and we discussed implant size. I said I was happy for him to decide what he felt was right for me whilst in surgery as I trust his judgement. The Anaesthetist came in and introduced himself also.
A short while later the nurses came to my room with a surgical bed I hopped on and they wheeled me to another place. On the way they put something in my cannula which made drowsy I remember going into a freezing cold room with blue lights above me ( well I think I remember that lol ). Next thing I know they are calling my name waking me up ! I woke up shivering so bad so if you are thinking about surgery be aware of this because it quite alarming ! Anyway after around half hour I was back in my room warmed up and had a drip on with painkillers and saline to hydrate me. I stayed at the hospital that night and they brought us food again which was nice.
The next day dr burak came to see me and check my dressings before I was given the all clear to go back to the hotel. The driver came to collect us and drove so very carefully all the way back.))
I spent the next few days feeling a bit rough which
Is to be expected and my partner helped me with dressing and showering etc. I didn’t have much appetite but there is a Mac Donald’s directly at the bottom of the hotel and hundreds of shops and food outlets surrounding and it’s all so inexpensive.
I spent 3 more nights in the hotel and was then collected on Saturday morning to be taken back to the hospital for my final check and dressing change before we was taken to the airport to fly home.
My whole experience even though I was so nervous about going to another country was
flawless. Dr Burak is a genuine man he doesn’t sell you a dream he’s honest about expectations and also answers any questions and concerns, believe me I had more than a few! he is skilled and very professional. There is also a lady Nergiz who was my lifeline from the time we got on the plane and through every part of my time there she was always there with advice and support. A truly lovely lady.
I am 5 days post op still recovering but all going smoothly so far I will add pictures of before and after when I am healed. I would definitely recommend)

Had my surgery on the 28th Feb 2020 and to be honest i was scared and nervous as i was a big woman. When Dr came and reviewed me and spoke to me about my procedure (Mommy make over) i was over the moon. Looking at my body know i am so amazed that Dr Burak managed to perform a mommy makeover on me, i feel like a whole new woman again. I will be going back for more lipo and getting my arms done very soon. I thank Dr Burak so much i am toatally happy with new look and what he has done.

Just been treated by Dr Durmus for gastric band removal and gastric sleeve performing..... the care I recieved was second to none... absolutely amazing is an understatement!!!! The whole team from doctors, nurses, cleaners, dietitians, care assistants, and constant communication of plan of care from Badge team coordinator , was out of this world... I cant recommend this company enough. I plan to use Badge clinic in the future for a mommy make over hopefully being performed by Dr Burak Esroy. Xxx👍👍❤❤🎉🎉

Review by Diana Maria Frunza1 year ago
Hey ! I'm Diana and this is a review that might help other people to make an important decision that might change their life. 💙 I am 24 years old and I gave birth when I was 17. I realised I'm not going to look the same because of the loose skin (mostly my breast and my tummy). My self confidence was highly affected, to the point where I stopped going to the pool, I stopped wearing specific clothes, I HAD to wear a bra no matter what etc. So I knew I needed a makeover, I kept thinking of it and I was following Badge Clinic on Instagram (amongst other clinics from Turkey, UK and Romania). I have done research for all of them, comparing benefits, prices, reviews etc. Eventually, I decided to go with Badge Clinic because the price was good and I could not find one single bad word about it. I made up my mind, I knew I'll go to Turkey for a mommy makeover (breast lift + implant and abdominoplasty + liposuction). The name of the doctor is Dr. BURAK ERSOY. He is amazing, in a sense that he is very calm, relaxing and definitely very confident in his domain.
I got there on a Sunday night and I had everything taken care of. Someone took me to the hospital (Academic Hospital - that is where they did the surgery), everybody was very nice to me at the hospital. I was a bit sceptic and scared, maybe, because the nurses were not speaking English and I refused to do the blood tests until I speak to my doctor, which was foolish from my side. Google translate helped a lot. The hospital was very nice and clean, I was alone in the room.
Monday - day of the surgery: Everything went nice and smooth, tests, anesthesia, woke up with another body. I was in pain, my tummy especially, but the nurses came regularly to check on me, to give me my antibiotics and painkillers when needed.
They also helped me to move on the first day, I've done a few steps out of my room. Also, I woke up after surgery dressed in 4 layers, which were provided by them: socks (thight, for blood flow), a protective thing on my back, a nice corset that that looks like a body shaper and the actual corset on my tummy and back. These things kept me together and I still wear 3 of them today (2 weeks post-op). I also had 5 drainage cables (2-breast, 2-tummy and 1 for pee 😁😇). These were taken off 2 days after the surgery. I stayed in the hospital until Wednesday and on Wednesday afternoon I was transfered to an amazing hotel. I regained bit by bit my independence, I could move (not easily), I could get off the bed on my own, I was going downstairs to eat etc. On Friday morning I had the last check up, someone took me to the hospital. I had my bandages removed and any questions were answered by the doctor. Also, Nergiz, which is the doctor's right-hand, was available on WApp for questions and concerns and I am so grateful because she was so kind and patient with me, and I had a lot of questions 🤣. All the transfers were provided by them and even the driver was so nice, respectful and helpful, even if he wasn't speaking English much.
Now, the most important, my results: I am still a bit swallen on my back and my cuts and sewing are not healed yet, as there are only 2 weeks which have passed since the intervention, but I am very happy till now. On my breast, the scars will be invisible as soon as they heal because they are around my nipples and the scar that I will have under my tummy will be always covered by panties. The size and shape of my breast is very nice, I did not want big boobs, but what I wanted was for them to be nice, cute, good looking. And now they are.
One more thing to mention: on Friday afternoon I felt good enough to go out, shopping and eating out. On Saturday morning I had my flight back to UK. You can say that I had a quick recovery. I'm still not perfectly recovered but it's getting better every day.
So, if you have second thoughts about doing this or not, I personally think that it is worth it and I would recommend Badge Clinic as the place to do it.

My experience with badge Clinic was phenomenal, the clinic was very well organised. Before I had arrived for my surgery, myself and the badge clinics assistant were able to communicate effectively, the assistant had ensured that I was comfortable and ensured that we had frequent communication . I also felt so comfortable to message her and tell her my about inquiries I had beforehand. Therefore I before I had arrived we had built a rapport (trust) between each other and for this reason badge clinic had my experience and journey exciting . Furthermore, the reason prior for why I had chosen badge clinic was because I had researched my surgeon ( Dr burak) and had seen that he had a plastic surgeon qualification which was based in the UK which made me extra comfortable as the UK qualification is classified as one of the best healthcare within the world . Therefore this had enable me to trust him due to that as well as his experience. Overall , I would 100% recommend badge clinic as the hospital and staff within the hospital are so caring and try to effectively understand what I’m trying to say as English is not their first language which makes it quite hard but despite that they try very hard and for this reason I have nothing bad to say about badge clinic .

I had a Mummy Makeover in November 2019, from start to finish the process was seamless and hassle free. From sending the first watspp to post opp nothing was to much trouble. Dr Burak Esroy was a gent and didnt make me feel like i was asking lots of silly questions. Everything was arranged perfectly transfers between the airport, hospital and hotel. Highly recommended and i am looking forward to returning in May 2020 for a touch up. Thank you for giving me back my confidence

Very happy with the result so far from my surgery with Dr Ersoy. He is very comforting and discusses everything with you pre and post op. Garments were provided and only had one small issue with a pick up time due to traffic as istanbul is such a busy place but couldn’t fault the team at all

Well where do I start..... I never leave reviews on anything but I feel everyone needs to know just how amazing Dr burak ersoy and badge clinic are. I had an open rhinoplasty and brow lift on 20.11.2019 in Istanbul... I was very nervous going to turkey for cosmetic surgery but after doing a lot of research into Dr burak I could not find a single bad review... (the only thing I will say is don’t be put off by there minimal instagram page) Also I had direct contact with him via WhatsApp and no questions were ever too much for him to answer.... everything was taken care of from the hotel to every transfer from airport, hotel & hospital.... at the hospital the staff where fantastic they didn’t speak much English but that didn’t affect the fantastic care they gave... Dr burak ersoy himself is one of the most genuine, caring, honest and talented guys I have ever met and it was a honour to meet him.... in my opinion he is the best surgeon I have come across and that’s including uk surgeons and his success is only going to continue to grow... I could not recommend badge clinic and all there team enough... I’m over the moon with my results and even on returning home my family are amazed how my procedures have turned out. I will 100% be returning in the future for more work... trust me if you decide to go to badge clinic you will not be disappointed!!!! ??????????

I would recommend Badge Clinic and Dr Burak Ersoy any day!
The consultatant Deniz was great with communication and ensured I had the best and safest option for me. Any concerns I had, the team ensured I had a reasonable solution and I was comfortable before going ahead with anything.
Dr Burak had great availability not just for the surgery but to speak to me before and after the surgery!
I had lipo+tummytuck+BBL and the price was good too. I was collected from the airport and taken to a lovley clean and quiet hotel. The staff were patient and understanding. I was then taken to a lovley and professional hospital. The rooms were huge and very comfortable and the staff were very understanding of my anxieties and took my surgery and my well being seriously. I was totally impressed by all the staff in the hospital and the overall cleanliness in the hospital. It was a peaceful and quiet environment just what i needed for my recovery.
My surgery was successful and my recovery has been smooth. Dr Burak is literally amazing! He was so calm and attentive to me, answering all of my questions and dealing with my anxieties! He is friendly and made sure i knew what to expect and more!
Im now 4 weeks post surgery and so happy with my results. My body is exactly how i wanted it and my Tummy Tuck scar is tiny and neat.
Dr Burak is still jus a call or message away, checking in with me and offering aftercare.
Amazing job from badge clinic and Dr Burak!

A massive thank you to the badge clinic from start to finish.
Dr Estroy is an exceptional surgeon I am 100% please with my results I had replacement breast implants and BBL surgery. Of course I was unsure of going abroad for surgery however DR Estroy video called me before I left he didn’t push me into making any decisions there and then he explained both procedures to me and explained what results to expect. Upon arrival in Istanbul we was looked after transfers and hotel I met with my surgeon the morning of my operation again he took time out to speak with me and help me decide with what procedures I wanted.
The hospital staff then looked after me and were really nice we mostly communicated over google translation which was fine and they were more than happy to help and take time to translate back.
After 2 days we were transferred to our hotel which I requested to change as I went with my cousin so she could help me travel home I didn’t know what sort of pain I would be in I asked the badge clinic to move us to a bigger room with some outdoor space as she was bored and didn’t want to walk around Istanbul on her own. Of course badge clinic did this for me and our hotel was lovely.
The day before I travelled home I met again with DR Estory and he removed my bandages my results even 5 days post surgery were fabulous and I was really pleased.
Upon my return home I went for a lymphatic massage which helps with the swelling and contouring after BBL. My masseuse asked who my surgeon was as he has seen a number of bbl procedures and has many clients he commented that my surgeon had done a really good job and taken his time he could already see the shape I will after the swelling goes have.
Because of Thomas cook issue we could not get a flight home and therefore had to stay an extra 2 days this was not a problem the badge clinic change our transfers for us and we simply paid extra 2 nights in hotel.
I am now nearly 2 weeks post op my boobs have not once been sore my stomach tender from the lipo my bum swollen but seems to be settling nicely.
I give my experience 10/10 I don’t think you will find anywhere with such a good experience and value my procedure in Uk would have been 10k I paid fraction of that and thank the Badge Clinic for their help.
I’m sure I will be over again soon if not for myself with friends who are also pleased with my results and have contacted the badge clinic for themselves.

I had my breast augmentation done by Dr. Burak Ersoy, I am extremely happy and grateful for everything he did. He is a true artist, even more than a plastic surgeon.
The hospital is very good, stuff is helpful and friendly. My whole experience in Turkey is 5 stars.
