Cochlear implant placement in Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sema Koç International Clinic
About the clinic
Cochlear implant placement at Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sema Koç International Clinic in Antalya, Turkey, is a specialized surgery for patients with severe hearing loss. The procedure is performed by an expert team at a JCI-accredited facility known for international quality standards. Patients benefit from a surgeon who holds both ENT qualifications and a master's degree in Audiology.
Expert Surgical Care
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sema Koç leads the treatment process. She serves as an ENT and Head-Neck Surgeon with advanced training in hearing and balance care. In 2013, she achieved the rank of Associate Professor in Otolaryngology. Furthermore, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sema Koç earned a Master’s degree in Audiology in 2014. This dual expertise allows her to address both the surgical and functional aspects of hearing restoration. She is also trained in using the Da Vinci robotic system for transoral surgery.
The Implantation Process
The journey begins with a detailed evaluation to confirm if a patient is a candidate for the device. The clinic uses precise hearing diagnostics and audiometry to measure the level of hearing loss. Cochlear implantation involves placing a small electronic device under the skin behind the ear. This device bypasses damaged parts of the ear to stimulate the hearing nerve directly. The team focuses on precise placement to help patients regain sound perception.

The clinic is designed to support international patients throughout their stay in Turkey. Since the facility holds JCI accreditation, it follows strict safety protocols for every surgery. The clinic provides organized support for visitors, including:
- Detailed hearing tests and specialist evaluations before the surgery.
- Private transport arrangements for smooth travel between locations.
- Hotel accommodations coordinated for the patient and their companions.
- Audiology follow-up to help patients adjust to their new hearing device.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sema Koç International Clinic: more details about the clinic

Established in 2020, the clinic provides medical and aesthetic surgical care. It focuses on functional ear-nose-throat treatments and facial plastic surgery.
Accreditations and Major Achievements
The clinic holds accreditation from Joint Commission International (JCI). This certification reflects a commitment to global healthcare quality and safety standards. The medical team reports a 100% satisfaction guarantee for all surgical procedures.
Founding surgeon Dr. Sema Koç earned her medical degree in 2001. She received her associate professorship in ENT in 2013. The clinic highlights her extensive surgical volume:
- Around 23 years of medical experience
- Over 3,500 rhinoplasty operations
- More than 1,170 general ENT operations
These milestones support the clinic's specialization in high-volume nasal and head-and-neck procedures.
Otolaryngology and Aesthetic Surgery
Rhinoplasty is the clinic's flagship procedure for both aesthetic and functional needs. Dr. Sema Koç performs primary and revision surgeries to improve facial harmony and breathing. The team uses ultrasonic Piezo technology to shape nasal bones with high precision.
Septoplasty corrects deviations in the nose's cartilage and bone structure. This procedure treats several chronic conditions:
- Nasal congestion and breathing difficulties
- Snoring and obstructive sleep apnea
- Reduced quality of life from poor airflow
The clinic also treats sleep-breathing disorders and pediatric issues. Specialists offer sleep apnea surgery when CPAP devices or lifestyle changes fail. For children, adenoid and tonsil removals use plasma technology. This method reduces bleeding and supports faster recovery.
Hearing and balance care is central to the practice. Dr. Sema Koç completed a master's degree in Audiology in 2014. The clinic treats various types of dizziness, including vertigo and Meniere's disease. Head and neck cancer care is also available for international patients.
Diagnostic and Treatment Technology
The clinic uses specialized equipment to evaluate ear, nose, and throat health. For balance and dizziness, the team uses Video-Nystagmography (VNG) and Posturography testing. They also use the Video Head Impulse Test (vHIT) to assess vestibular function.
Respiratory and hearing diagnostics include a variety of precise tools:
- Laryngoscopy and Otoscopy
- Nasal Endoscopy and Audiometry
- CT imaging for chest and nasal structures
These tools allow for detailed 3D nasal simulations before aesthetic surgeries.
International Patient Services
The clinic offers organized "Aesthetic Vacation" packages for patients traveling from abroad. A professional team manages date selection and hotel reservations in Antalya. Private transportation is available via luxury vehicles with a professional guide.
The team provides services in five languages: Turkish, English, Russian, Arabic, and German. The clinic coordinates travel so patients can return home by day 5. Postoperative care includes a tracking protocol to monitor healing after discharge.
