Sources & verification

Compiled into the 2026-10-03 dataset build. No separate re-verification date is recorded for this clinic. Placed by verification, never by payment.

Editorial note: Corroborated by Trustpilot, RealSelf (surgeon profile) and Google Maps (Barcelona patient-office listing, 4.6/130). Honest negatives: Trustpilot is polarised (3.5/5 from 42; ~29% one-star; last review April 2023; no replies to negative reviews), and its company description references a collaboration with a different doctor (Dr Ugur Altuntas). Address differs across sources (Şişli Plaza vs Halide Edib Adıvar, Şişli) — both Şişli. No ISHRS/ABHRS/IAHRS membership (the clinic confirms Dr Çelik is not an ISHRS member; he attended a 2019 ISHRS workshop as a non-member, corrected on its site 2026-10-04), so not Tier 1. Bookimed/WhatClinic/Treatment Abroad and an LA Times sponsored supplement excluded as aggregator/paid. Clinic submitted details to us 2026-09-24.
