Dear Professor Kerem,

We are in awe of your knowledge, expertise, kindness, and gentlemanly demeanor. Despite my constant ups and downs, irrational fears, and anxieties, you have never abandoned me for a year now. In fact, you have done more than your best to heal me against my own will. I had visited numerous doctors for the problems in my shoulder, and I was tired of it. I underwent surgery with you, and now I am doing very well. I have issues with my other shoulder, and my husband says, “Kerem Hoca won’t operate on you again; you have exhausted the doctor.” I hope he is wrong because after getting to know Professor Kerem, it is now very difficult for me to trust anyone else. May Allah bless Professor Kerem a thousand times. 05-09-2021

During a walk, I fell on my arm, dislocating my shoulder. My shoulder was put back in place in the hospital, but I had unbearable pain. Since I knew that a close relative of mine had undergone shoulder surgery and was satisfied, I immediately went to Professor Dr. Kerem Canbora. His attention to the patient, patient and reassuring approach, clear and detailed explanations about my condition, and the trust he instilled in me make me grateful that I chose him. After my closed shoulder surgery, I followed the check-ups and physiotherapy process with his guidance and support, and now I can use my arm and shoulder comfortably. I thank him very much. 04-09-2021

He successfully treated my son’s dislocated and fractured shoulder. He never left us alone during the pre-operative and post-operative treatment process, showing his care, positive energy, and always being by our side. Thank you, doctor, for everything. 24-06-2020

Dr. Kerem is not only a great doctor with his sympathetic and cheerful attitude, but he also deserves a hat tip for his expertise in his field. His constant updates and follow-up during the diagnosis and treatment of my illness, and his behavior more like a friend than a doctor, greatly impressed me. I had shoulder surgery six years ago and foot surgery (hallux rigidus) three months ago. I thank him for his attention throughout the process. If you are looking for a dedicated and skilled doctor, Kerem Hocam is the professor you are looking for. Thank you. 31-03-2020

I am 71 years old, and I fell on my right arm and shoulder due to an accident at home. After the fall, I couldn’t lift my arm, tie my hair, carry bags, or perform my daily tasks at home. I didn’t have any pain, but not being able to use my right arm as before made my life quite difficult. In this regard, we contacted Prof. Dr. Kerem Canbora, whose name and reputation we had already heard from acquaintances. He had operated on and restored the health of many people we knew. After a manual examination, he suspected a tear in the shoulder tendons and confirmed it with an MRI. He set the surgery date and assured me that I would be able to use my arm and shoulder better than before after wearing a shoulder sling for 5-6 weeks after the surgery and receiving physiotherapy. I had a claustrophobic nature, so I was worried about entering the MRI. In that regard, our Doctor Kerem reassured us and arranged for an anesthetized MRI, ensuring that the MRI process was carried out without any discomfort. The results of the manual examination and the MRI were identical, and four tears were detected in my shoulder tendons. Prof. Dr. Kerem explained to us what we needed to do before and after the surgery, and how I could use my shoulder and arm better than before through post-operative care for 5-6 weeks with a shoulder sling and subsequent physiotherapy. He showed us videos and photos of his patients taken before and after the surgery, allowing us to understand the process better. He performed the surgical intervention using the arthroscopic method, entering from four points. The surgery was very successful, and after spending one night in the hospital, I was discharged. I meticulously followed the instructions of Prof. Dr. Kerem regarding ice compression, dressing changes, and other guidelines, and I am now experiencing the joy of returning to my normal life. Prof. Dr. Kerem Canbora earns our respect with his expertise, experience, knowledge, and seriousness in his field, while also understanding the patient’s psychology very well and alleviating your concerns with his humorous personality. He approaches all our questions with understanding and provides more than satisfactory answers, ensuring that both you and your loved ones overcome this painful process with ease. Just when the pandemic period wasn’t scary enough, having a home accident became my nightmare. However, thanks to Prof. Dr. Kerem Canbora and his team, I went through this process without worry and anxiety, and most importantly, I regained my health. No matter how much I express my gratitude, it is not enough. 24-11-2020.

I am 65 years old. I have been experiencing intermittent severe pain, loss of strength, and difficulties in using my left shoulder for the past 8 years due to tendon tears caused by careless use, falls, and heavy lifting. Most recently (I am an active motorcycle rider), during a challenging trip in August 2019, the falls and the strain of lifting the motorcycle resulted in continuous and intense pain that did not subside even with strong painkillers. I had great difficulty using my left hand and left arm. Upon returning from the trip, I sought treatment and advice from various physiotherapy experts. I even received steroid injections in my shoulder. However, I did not see any improvement from the physical therapies they provided. According to my MRI, there was a wide and full-thickness tear in my left shoulder. The physiotherapy experts generally told me that the success rate of surgery for such a tear is low and that the post-operative recovery process is difficult and challenging (especially at the age of 65), so I should just “manage it” from now on. A physiotherapy professor, whom I knew closely, recommended Prof. Dr. Kerem Canbora to me. Based on my test results and MRI images, he recommended surgery to me. My pain and discomfort were at a high level, so I agreed without hesitation. I was admitted to NP Brain Hospital at Uskudar University in Umraniye, and I had the surgery on the same day. I was discharged the next day. It has been 3.5 months since my surgery. Despite my age, I have started using my left arm as before. I have no pain or limitations anymore. I believe that my slight loss of strength will also recover in a week or two. Prof. Dr. K. Canbora, with his intensive pre-operative information and attention, continuous post-operative follow-up and physiotherapy guidance, and undoubtedly the flawless operation he performed, has enabled me to reach these healthy days. He has saved my arm from going to prosthetics in a few years and put an end to my troubles. I am very grateful to him. I especially recommend him to those who have similar complaints.

Some time ago, due to injuries in both of my shoulders caused by a fall, I couldn’t lift my arms above shoulder height and the pain prevented me from sleeping. After the examinations conducted by Mr. Kerem, it was decided that I would have a closed surgery. With the extremely comfortable and successful surgery performed by our doctor on both of my shoulders, I regained my sleep at night, and I can use my arms without any problems. I would like to express my gratitude to Prof. Dr. Kerem Canbora. 17-06-2019.

Hello, in mid-July 2019, I went to Mr. Kerem Canbora for a check-up due to intense pain in my left knee. After the tests and examination conducted by my doctor during the appointment, it was determined that I had a meniscus tear in my knee. Due to the approach of my doctor and the trust I had in him, I believed that I would recover, so we mutually agreed to have surgery (and I’m glad I did). I was admitted to the hospital on the morning of August 20, 2019, for the surgery. And I had a successful operation (thank God). From the moment I entered the room until the moment I was discharged, Mr. Kerem Canbora, who took care of me, asked about my condition day and night, answered my questions promptly regardless of the time, made me feel like a family member. I express my gratitude and thanks to Mr. Kerem Canbora for restoring my health. Thanks to the practical and easily performed exercises they provided, I can now bend my knee to 90 degrees and continue my life painlessly.

In 2019, my husband and I had a motorcycle accident in Edremit. As a result of the accident, I had a Type 4 Acromioclavicular Joint Injury in my right shoulder and a fractured wrist. I had my initial surgeries at a private hospital where the accident occurred.

When we came to Istanbul, we immediately started searching for a specialist in shoulder joints. I did a lot of research online. I read the recovery comments of patients who had similar shoulder conditions like mine, and that’s how we met Dr. Kerem. After the necessary tests and examination, it was determined that I needed a second shoulder surgery. I had the surgery the following week. Dr. Kerem ensured that I recovered from the infection and performed the surgery using the latest developed methods. He also showed great care for me after the surgery. He called me for check-ups almost every week. He closely monitored my recovery and physiotherapy process. Thanks to him, I regained my health. I am currently 5 months pregnant, and I am counting the days until I hold my baby in my arms. He became like a family member to us. I appreciate his expertise, the importance he gives to human relationships, his attentive approach, and his careful follow-up of his work. I am grateful to him for restoring my health. I am planning to visit him with my baby soon.

CÜNEYT DEĞERLİ

Two months ago, while searching for a doctor for my mother’s reverse shoulder surgery, upon a recommendation, I met Dr. Kerem and took my mother for an examination. From the first day, his attention, information, and proper guidance resulted in my mother having laparoscopic surgery instead of reverse shoulder surgery, and subsequently, my mother quickly recovered and regained her health. It was an invaluable experience for me. Thank you very much for everything, doctor. We are glad you exist. 24-05-2019.

I met Kerem Bey in January 2021 due to my brother’s elbow fracture. Although it was an unpleasant situation due to an accident, we achieved a very good result thanks to Kerem Bey’s attention and accurate information. After the surgery, our patient recovered very well and returned to his normal activities in a shorter time than expected. His attention and knowledge have led to very positive results in our lives.

Hello, I’m 57 years old. This year, while skiing, I had a rotator cuff tear in my right shoulder due to an accident. After consulting with several doctors, I had my surgery performed by Dr. Mehmet Kerem Canbora based on a recommendation. I thank him for his close attention and interest both before and after the surgery.

BOZKURT ATABEK

I met Kerem Bey upon the recommendation of a friend. He not only brought together the pieces of my four-part fractured shoulder but also instilled trust in me and my family from the moment we met. I believe that trust in the doctor you will have surgery with is the most important thing. Before the operation, he informed me about every detail and enlightened me about all possible scenarios. His follow-up and guidance after the surgery helped me recover much faster. Lastly, there is almost no visible scar from the surgery. If you don’t pay attention, you can’t see it. Thank you very much.

FERHAT ÇOLAK

About 8 years ago, I dislocated my shoulder due to a fall. Initially, I thought it was broken because I couldn’t move my arm. It was put back in place at the hospital’s emergency department. After a year of recovery, it dislocated again, causing the same pain repeatedly over the years. It really started to affect my daily life; I was constantly cautious, as if my shoulder would dislocate with every movement. I couldn’t even sleep peacefully at night, waking up in fear of dislocation. Until I met Mehmet Kerem CANBORA. The result was a diagnosis of Bankart lesion. He successfully repaired the tear in my shoulder using arthroscopic surgery. I recovered my health in a short time. It was my first surgery ever. Thanks to our doctor’s smiling face and examinations, I forgot about the shoulder dislocation. My only regret is that I didn’t wait for years. I couldn’t imagine it would be this easy. Thank you very much.

BURAK PALABIYIK

After the ligament tear in my shoulder, I had surgery based on the recommendation of Kerem Bey. It has only been 2 months since the surgery, and my shoulder is in great condition, and I have already returned to my daily life. About 6 years ago, my father had recurrent shoulder dislocations and underwent surgery with Kerem Bey, and he regained his previous health.

For this reason, without any hesitation, I had my surgery with Kerem Bey, and I sincerely thank him for his attention, expertise, and the results we achieved. I can sincerely say that he is a truly expert doctor in whom you can trust wholeheartedly. Thank you, Dr. Kerem Canbora, and I wish you continued success throughout your life.

FATMA GÜNGÖR

Nearly 22 years ago, the muscles and ligaments in my shoulder were damaged due to a fall, to the point where I could barely carry out my daily activities. Despite consulting numerous doctors and undergoing multiple physical therapy sessions, I couldn’t achieve any results. The doctors I consulted told me it was too late for surgery and that there was nothing else that could be done. I had accepted my helplessness until I met Dr. Kerem Canbora. With his expertise in the field, he convinced me that he could solve my condition, and thus, our surgery process began. Throughout this process, not only did he become our doctor, but he also became like a member of our family with his care and guidance. The arm that I underwent surgery on 8 months ago is now in great condition. There is no trace of my old pains. We are grateful to you. You will always be in our prayers. Thank you immensely, Mr. Kerem.

In April, I had an unfortunate accident and broke my left wrist. We reached out to M. Kerem Bey immediately for my swollen and deformed wrist. Despite it being late at night, when we arrived for the examination, he and his team were waiting for us with all the necessary intervention equipment. A hospital was arranged for an MRI scan while we were on the way. After the initial intervention, they carefully and patiently explained the need for surgery to stabilize one of the two fractures, and with our decision and the fast organization of his team, I underwent surgery at the hospital at 05:00 in the morning, 10 hours later, with the necessary additional equipment, equipment, and the confidence he provided. Following that, with meticulous and careful follow-ups and his recommendations during the physical therapy process, my hand became even stronger than before. The intervention was very successful, and I returned to work within 10 days and started physical therapy within 4 weeks. I thank you and your team very much, Mr. Mehmet Kerem Canbora. I smoothly overcame a traumatic and challenging process thanks to the trust you provided. I’m glad you exist.

Bülent Yıldırım

My mother is 82 years old and lives in Samsun. She has been experiencing problems due to osteoarthritis in her shoulder for a long time. She underwent physical therapy and other treatments, but didn’t achieve any results. Recently, her pain has worsened, and she has become unable to use her right hand. The doctors we visited said that due to her age and bone structure, a shoulder prosthesis surgery is very risky and didn’t instill confidence in us. I started researching expert surgeons in shoulder surgery and reached out to Dr. Kerem. After the initial examination, he mentioned the need for a shoulder prosthesis in our case and assured us that he could perform the operation smoothly. Dr. Kerem had a reassuring demeanor, and we made the decision to proceed with the surgery. The right shoulder prosthesis operation was successfully performed on April 18th. She is now completely pain-free and can use her arm more comfortably, improving every day. We stayed in constant communication after the surgery, and he closely monitored the recovery process. I express my gratitude and thanks to Dr. Kerem for improving the quality of life for my 82-year-old mother.
