Прошло уже шесть месяцев после завершения моего лечения рака легких, и я чувствую себя гораздо лучше. Врачи в Анадолу были невероятно внимательны и профессиональны. Лечение было сложным, с многочисленными сеансами радиотерапии, которые оставили меня уставшим и с болями. Однако, поддержка со стороны медицинской бригады и близких помогла мне не сдаваться. Сейчас мое состояние стабилизировалось, и последние анализы показали положительные результаты. Я благодарен за каждый новый день и надеюсь на лучшее. Отдельное спасибо моему врачу Ешим Йылдырым.
Очень благодарна доктору Ешим за профессионализм и индивидуальный подход к каждому пациенту. Огромная благодарность профессору Ваффи за ювелирное проведение операции по удалению опухоли. Золотые руки!!! Операцию провели 12 ноября 2022 года. В марте 2023 года прилетала на контрольное обследование. Слава Аллаху, все чисто! Очень хорошая клиника, большое спасибо нашему координатору Элизе и переводчице Закие. Оказывают помощь очень оперативно и на высшем уровне!
Хочу залишити свій відгук про цього лікаря. Була у неї на консультаціях та безпосередньому лікуванні, і після закінчення цього процесу в мене залишилося приємне враження. Лікар Ешим - професійна, уважна та дуже організована в роботі.

My doctor friend told me about dr. Yesim Yildirim after I was diagnosed with melanoma. During my consultation appointment with her, I knew I had found my doctor. She surgically removed the tumor from different areas of my body and I must say she has extremely professional hands.
I had stage1 breast cancer and came to get my treatment at Anadolu medical center. I must say, I am very lucky that dr.Yesim Yildirim was my doctor. She is not only talented but also empathetic, I felt really comfortable during my whole treatment course. She did my successful surgery and I am completely healthy now.
