“Getting information relieved me”
Nurdan Pektaş, who had a meniscus rupture surgery at the Eşrefpaşa Hospital Orthopedics and Traumatology Clinic, said, “They said that I had to go to the control one month after the operation. When I could not go because of the epidemic, I reached the hospital through the system they put into practice. Luckily, Doctor Selcuk Özgen, who operated me, listened to my complaints. He told us what to do. It was good to communicate from a distance. Getting information also relieved me. ”
