Istanbul · General surgery
One surgeon, four fields, and the willingness to say no.
I am Op. Dr. Kenan Yüce, a general surgeon in Istanbul. This page exists so you can find the right place quickly — each field below has its own site, written properly rather than as a sales page. If your case is not one I should operate on, you will be told that too.
Treatment is arranged through EMMI Health Tourism, a licensed facilitator for international health tourism — not a hospital. Operations take place in licensed hospitals in Istanbul, and the responsibility for treatment lies with them.
Fields of work
Four surgical fields. Each has a site of its own, because a paragraph on a landing page is not enough to decide anything.
Obesity and metabolic surgery
Sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, transit bipartition and ileal interposition — the last two aimed at type 2 diabetes rather than weight.
emmihealth.orgProctology
Haemorrhoids, anal fissure, fistula and abscess, pilonidal sinus. The field this practice grew out of.
analdisease.comMicrobiome therapy (FMT)
Faecal microbiota transplantation — established for recurrent C. difficile infection, research for everything else. That line is drawn explicitly.
whatisfmt.comHernia surgery
Inguinal, umbilical, incisional and hiatal hernias, laparoscopic or open depending on what is safer.
emmihealth.orgTreatment in Istanbul, organised
Hospital and surgeon named before you book, interpreting, transfers, and discharge papers your own doctor can read.

Verifiable facts
Travel agency licence group A no. 13878, issued by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of the Republic of Türkiye to EMMI HEALTH TOURISM. A second authorisation for international health tourism exists but is still registered under a former company name; it is deliberately not shown here until reissued, because a certificate whose name does not match your contracting party is worth nothing to you.
Start with your case, not with a price
Write what you have, what has been tried, and what your reports say. You will get a surgeon's assessment of whether an operation makes sense at all.
