I found Mr Aktuerk's manner extremely reassuring especially as the outcome of my tests/scans etc, were a shock to me, hence requiring the surgery. He was extremely professional, was detailed in his explanation of not only the results but also before and after my operation, and it was very much appreciated to see him (and his anaesthetist) before and after my operation whilst in hospital. I would highly recommend Mr Aktuerk and his team for any procedures that they are experienced in.

I had heart bypass surgery November 2024, Dincer Aktuerk was very professional & explained every part of the surgery, he made me feel relaxed & confident of the outcome. I am pleased with results & recovery has been better than I expected, I would recommend Dincer to anyone who requires any type of heart surgery.
