How Much Does Knee MAKOplasty Cost in Turkey in AUD?

Knee MAKOplasty in Turkey typically costs from AUD $12,815 to AUD $28,478 for robotic-assisted replacement. Final prices depend on the choice of premium implants, clinic accreditation, and the surgeon's robotic experience. In Australia, patients often pay around AUD $33,462, meaning travelling to Turkish medical hubs like Istanbul, Bursa, or Antalya offers savings of approximately 38%.

Robotic-assisted technology: typically adds a 20–30% premium over traditional manual knee replacement methods.
Bilateral surgery: performing both knees simultaneously usually costs 50–70% more than a single knee.
Premium implants: use of specific ceramic or Oxinium materials increases the total procedure cost.
JCI-accredited facilities: hospitals with international quality certifications often price services at the higher end.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Turkish institutions offer remarkable value by bundling advanced diagnostics into surgical rates. Liv Hospital Ulus provides packages around A$33,600 that include VIP transfers and CT scans. For those seeking massive experience, specialists like Dr. Erman Cekic have performed approximately 10,000 joint replacements. Choosing Bursa-based clinics can also reduce costs compared to high-tier Istanbul centres without compromising on robotic precision.

If a friend asked me about this, I'd tell them the difference is night and day

If a friend asked me about this, I'd tell them the difference is night and day. My knee feels so much better than it did before the surgery, with much less pain. Of course, recovery isn't instant. The biggest challenge for me right now is some morning stiffness, but once I get moving it improves. The clinic staff and surgeon were professional and answered all my questions about the full replacement, which included the kneecap and a Smith & Nephew implant. I can already bend my knee past 90 degrees easily. It was the right decision.

The coordination of services and language translation was excellent. We felt very cared for and the team listened to our concerns and we had professional, sophisticated and compassionate care.

My one concern was the difficulty we had with one of the translators at the hospital in Istanbul but it was because of difficulty with communication and misunderstanding.

The doctor is very competent, trustworthy, attentive, positive and charismatic

My father, 76 years old, had a knee replacement - Dr Olcay Guller. The doctor is very competent, trustworthy, attentive, positive and charismatic. This is important because my father was very worried and doubtful, but after the first meeting with the doctor he was completely reassured. All pre-operative investigations were organised quickly. Preparation for the operation and the operation itself - everything went smoothly. The next morning my dad was already walking along the corridor with the help of crutches. Nurses and nurses are attentive and friendly, no remarks. Feeding was also excellent, even a lot. I was placed in a spacious ward with a large window and air conditioning. In the bathroom everything is adapted for immobile patients, spacious barrier-free shower. On the territory of the hotel there are a couple of cafes with a good menu, Starbucks. The internet in the hospital is quite good.

All in all it was a pleasant experience. Would recommend the hospital with a clear conscience if needed

About Bookimed service

I don't know how long I would have searched for a hospital myself if I hadn't written to Bukimed. There was hardly any free time for this, and there were many doubts about the choice. With Bukimed everything unfolded quickly and in a couple of weeks my father was already seen by a doctor.
