What patients report about Bezmialem Vakıf Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Hastanesi
Based on the reviews, patients report significant problems with the clinic’s organisation and the quality of care provided by trainees. Reviewers describe being "directed from one place to another" with poor communication, and one states that "students work like butchers" who are solely focused on "passing their internships" rather than performing proper work. Additionally, there are complaints about the difficulty of securing appointments with senior staff and the unreasonableness of the fees charged.
We quote the actual 1–2★ reviews below so you can verify each one yourself, and weigh them against a clinic with a clean record.
Who treats you — and who is accountable
The biggest divide in Turkish dentistry is whether a named specialist treats you start-to-finish, or your case is assigned within a rotating team. At Taki Dent, Prof. Dr. Sadık Taki — a specialist prosthodontist with 17 peer-reviewed publications and Turkish Dental Association membership — personally assesses, treats and follows up every case and stays reachable on WhatsApp, so the person who consents your plan is the one accountable for it. Ask Bezmialem Vakıf Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Hastanesi for the name of the individual dentist who will perform your surgery, and verify their register entry.
Guarantee & aftercare
Taki Dent's guarantee is written and tiered — a lifetime manufacturer warranty on implant components and a 5–10 year guarantee on crowns and veneers — and for a significant issue it covers a free return trip for corrective treatment, activated by the treating doctor himself. Every patient also receives a serialised implant passport. Get Bezmialem Vakıf Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Hastanesi's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.
