Зверталася до цього лікаря з діагнозом пухлина шиї. Не шкодую, що знайшла саме його та вирішила довірити свій стан здоров'я цьому фахівцю. Лікування пройшло успішно. Сподіваюсь, надалі моє самопочуття буде лише покращуватись.

I had my radiotherapy sessions with Dr. Mehmet Faik for prostate cancer. He indeed is one of the sweetest and kind personalities, always available for his patients. He was not just my doctor but also a big support to me and my family. He was always there to assure me and my family, guiding them and explaining every detail of my treatment and progress.
I specifically visited Turkey to get my radiosurgery of first-stage colon cancer from Dr. Mehmet Faik. I heard a lot of good reviews about him and I am glad to have chosen him for my treatment.

I am glad I chose Dr. Mehmet for my radio surgery. I did not just have a facility of receiving my treatment through advanced technological equipment but Dr also played a major role for successful cure. During my cyber knife procedure he assured me, supported me, helped me prepare better for the procedure and was very down to earth towards all the patients as well as the whole staff.
