Post-Surgery Follow-Up and Remote Consultations
Continuing care after returning home is essential for optimal results. Turkish clinics have developed robust remote follow-up systems to support international patients throughout their recovery.
Remote Follow-Up Methods
- Video Consultations: Face-to-face appointments via Zoom or WhatsApp
- Photo Reviews: Regular progress photos sent to your surgeon for assessment
- WhatsApp Support: Direct messaging with your patient coordinator
- Email Reports: Periodic written assessments and recommendations
Follow-Up Schedule
Most clinics schedule remote check-ins at 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-surgery. Additional consultations are available whenever needed.
When to Seek Local Medical Attention
- Signs of infection (fever, excessive redness, discharge)
- Unexpected bleeding that does not stop
- Severe pain not controlled by prescribed medication
- Any sudden changes in your condition
Your Turkish medical team will coordinate with your local GP when necessary to ensure continuity of care.
