Op. Dr. Ahmet Şadi Kılınç
Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon. Bahçeşehir, Istanbul.
Dr Ahmet Şadi Kılınç is an orthopaedic and trauma surgeon who sees and treats patients in Bahçeşehir, Istanbul.
Areas of practice
His main areas of practice are knee and hip replacement, arthroscopic (keyhole) surgery, sports injuries, shoulder and elbow surgery, hand surgery, foot and ankle surgery, fracture and trauma care, children’s orthopaedics, diabetic foot care and bone and soft tissue tumours. Orthopaedic injections and regenerative treatments are also among the options for suitable patients.
Approach to treatment
Every patient’s complaint, lifestyle and expectations are different, so treatment begins with a detailed examination and the right imaging. Where possible, non-surgical options are considered first. When surgery is needed, the method, possible risks and recovery are discussed openly and the decision is made together.
Surgery is only one part of treatment. Follow-up visits and rehabilitation after surgery are as important as the operation itself for a safe return to daily life and sport.
Preparing for your visit
Bringing any previous X-ray, MRI and CT images (on CD or as a digital link) and reports, a list of your medications and documents about previous operations makes the assessment easier.
How he works
- The right diagnosis first
- No treatment is planned before the source of the pain is found. The examination is never rushed, and imaging is requested when needed.
- Surgery is neither the last resort nor the first option
- Many complaints improve with exercise, physiotherapy or injections. Surgery is recommended when its benefit is clear.
- Decisions are made together
- Options, the expected course and the risks are explained in plain language. The final decision is the patient's.
- Recovery starts after surgery
- Follow-ups and rehabilitation are part of the treatment. The return to daily life and sport is tracked step by step.
