Who are we?
AVAN AESTH is a patient coordination team that helps people living abroad plan their treatment journey in Istanbul. We work in 15 languages from our office in Kadıköy, Istanbul. Our aim is to help you understand the written plan prepared by the healthcare provider and to know every step in Istanbul in advance.
M. Avan – Founder & CEO
M. Avan is the founder and CEO of AVAN AESTH. He has worked in health tourism for 16 years. He graduated from Bülent Ecevit University and Kastamonu University, and is continuing his studies at the Vocational School of Health Services at Nişantaşı University.
He founded AVAN AESTH to serve patients who will truly benefit from treatment with the right plan, and to be able to tell a patient clearly “don't have it done” when a procedure would not meet their expectations. He personally follows every patient's check-ups and closely monitors both that treatment proceeds as planned and the quality of the interpreting service.
He is working on a digital platform where patients can find an impartial, comparative answer to the question “Which hospital in Turkey is good?” He speaks Turkish and English.
What is AVAN AESTH?
AVAN AESTH is a health tourism and patient coordination service based in Istanbul, Türkiye. We help international patients plan hair transplant, dental and aesthetic treatment journeys with healthcare providers in Istanbul.
AVAN AESTH was founded to offer international patients transparent and reliable coordination.
Why AVAN AESTH?
- We work only with licensed healthcare providers.

- Interpreter support in 15 languages.
- If the doctor's assessment shows that you are not suitable for a hair transplant, we tell you openly.

What does the coordination process look like?

- A healthcare provider reviews it and, if appropriate, prepares a written plan.
- We help you plan your travel dates and arrangements.
- Your consultation and treatment take place in Istanbul with the treating team.
- You receive aftercare instructions from the treating team, and we continue follow-up communication.
How is AVAN AESTH different from a healthcare provider?
Healthcare providers diagnose, recommend treatment and perform procedures. AVAN AESTH does none of these. Medical decisions, including whether you are suitable for a treatment and which technique is used, are made by the licensed treating team.
Our role and its limits when you choose a clinic or treatment
We share information that helps you prepare questions and compare written plans. We do not guarantee medical outcomes and we do not replace medical advice. Before you travel, confirm in writing the treating facility, the medical team responsible for each stage and the aftercare arrangements.
