Leena Stephen’s Journey: Regaining Mobility with Knee Replacement Surgery in Turkey

Leena Stephen, a 50-year-old from South Sudan, recently had a life-changing experience thanks to a successful knee replacement surgery at Turan Turan Health Group in Bursa, Turkey. After years of pain and limited mobility, she was finally able to enjoy an active lifestyle again.

Leena, who weighs 80 kg, had been suffering from severe knee pain for over a year.

“Every step was painful. I could barely move,” she said.

Despite seeking various treatments, nothing seemed to provide lasting relief. With a diagnosis of high blood pressure, diabetes, and allergies, her condition was complex, but she was determined to find a solution.

Given her immediate need for knee replacement surgery and a budget was around $8000, Leena explored several countries, including Turkey, Poland, and India.

In last, she chose Turan Turan Health Group in Bursa, Turkey with the help of PlacidWay Medical Tourism. “The reputation of Turan Turan and the advanced medical facilities in Turkey made my decision easy,” she explained.

Additionally, the healthcare infrastructure and cost-effective treatment options in Turkey were far superior to what was available in South Sudan, making it a more viable option for her.

Leena’s journey began with a detailed consultation with the medical team at Turan Turan Health Group. They reviewed her diagnosis reports and confirmed that knee replacement surgery was the best course of action. Despite her health conditions, the doctors assured her they would manage everything carefully.

The surgery was scheduled promptly, aligning with Leena's need for immediate treatment. On the day of the surgery, she felt a mix of anxiety and hope. The medical staff at Turan Turan Health Group made sure she was comfortable and informed throughout the process. The surgery went smoothly, and Leena was relieved to find herself on the path to recovery.

Leena was discharged shortly after the surgery and opted to recover in the comfort of her home. Her therapists in Bursa encouraged her to push beyond just "okay" and aim for a full return to her previous active lifestyle.

With the successful knee replacement behind her, Leena looks forward to enjoying activities that were previously impossible due to her knee pain.

“I’m so grateful to the team at Turan Turan Health Group. They gave me my life back,” she said.

Her medical journey from South Sudan to Turkey was truly worthwhile.
