Hi there, Hair back.....I understand your nervous as I was too and my Mrs came with me
At one point I was almost travelling alone due to childcare issue, so I asked the clinic I was going with if they could put me in touch with anyone to buddy up, but they said they couldn't disclose patient info.
I will say this......If you do travel alone, you will meet lots of guys getting it done as its so common out there. I met 3 guys travelling out at the gate and we were chatting all things HT even before I got on the plane...…. I can only comment on my own hotel, but it was full of patients who had had work done.
I bumped into someone I knew from my home city in my Hotel
I know one clinic offer a chaperone service......i.e. will travel with you but im not sure how common this is.
Its perfectly normal to be nervous, but now I am on the other side, nearly 4 weeks post op, I cant stress enough how easy the whole thing was......Nominal pain and you will meet other people there gauranteed. We ended up going shopping with a small group of people who had surgery the same day as me as you are in the same boat...…..dare I say it my trip to turkey was a pleasant one, I really enjoyed it, despite me being nervous as hell.
Also Turkish airlines were amazing, so book with them if you go...….I was very impressed with this airline.
Good luck mate and feel free to pick my brains, what's left of them anyways
