Safe Urology

Safe Urology Clinic is a single-specialty urology center established in 1973 in Istanbul. The clinic specializes in men's sexual health, urological oncology, and complex reconstructive surgery. The medical team operates within Joint Commission International (JCI) accredited hospitals. This ensures surgical safety and standardized care. The facility primarily treats international patients from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Germany.

Clinical Achievements and Specializations

The clinic has performed over 2,500 urological procedures. It maintains a 96% patient satisfaction rate. Safe Urology holds dual certification as a Coloplast Center of Excellence and an AMS Center of Experience. The medical team includes four doctors led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Tuncay Taş, a board-certified urologist with over 20 years of experience.

Safe Urology Clinic contributes to regenerative medicine and surgical training. The team presented the first clinical results of combined PRP and SVF penile therapy at a national scientific congress in Turkey. Dr. Taş serves as an instructor for the International Society for Stem Cell Applications (ISSCA). He also leads anatomical lab surgical workshops for other urologists.

Men's Sexual Health and Regenerative Therapy

The clinic offers surgical and non-surgical treatments for erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation:

• Titan inflatable penile prosthesis – inflatable implants from Coloplast
• AMS 700 penile prosthesis – erectile dysfunction implants from Boston Scientific
• P-Shot (PRP) – platelet-rich plasma injections to improve blood flow
• Stem cell therapy – adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) for erectile dysfunction and Peyronie's disease
• Selective Dorsal Neurotomy (SDN) – surgical treatment for primary premature ejaculation
• Shockwave therapy (Li-ESWT) – non-invasive ED1000 system treatment to stimulate blood vessel growth

Surgical patients follow an American clinical care model. This includes daily physician-led assessments during initial recovery.

Urological Oncology and Reconstruction

The Surgical Oncology department focuses on minimally invasive and radical operations for prostate, bladder, and kidney cancers. Specialists perform robotic-assisted and laparoscopic radical cystectomy for bladder cancer. The computerized system improves surgical precision. For kidney cancer, the team offers laparoscopic and robotic-assisted nephrectomy, including nephron-sparing partial nephrectomy for smaller tumors.

Advanced diagnostic and surgical options for prostate health include:

• MRI-guided focal cryoablation for localized prostate cancer
• High-frequency ultrasound ablation (HIFU)
• Focal laser ablation
• Robotic-assisted radical laparoscopic prostatectomy
• Urological examinations with MRI and transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)

The clinic also performs gender-affirming bottom surgeries. These include metoidioplasty and phalloplasty for trans men. Trans women can receive penile inversion or sigmoid colon neovagina procedures.

International Patient Services

Safe Urology Clinic provides a coordinated care pathway for men traveling to Istanbul for treatment. Patients can access a free virtual consultation about 2–4 weeks before their scheduled travel. A dedicated coordination team offers support in English, Arabic, Russian, and French. The international package includes VIP airport transfers, hospital stay, anesthesia, and necessary medications.

Post-operative support involves structured monitoring after discharge. The team conducts daily check-ins while the patient stays at the hotel. Follow-up visits for wound inspection are scheduled before departure. The coordination team also assists with travel logistics and return flight support.
