ismailkucuker.com describes a private clinic in Suadiye on Bağdat Avenue, offering plastic surgery and dermatology. priveclinic.co says Prive Clinic was founded in Samsun in 2017 by İsmail Küçüker and Eda Küçüker, with a second branch in Göztepe, Istanbul, in 2019. The pages do not say which of these the clinic currently uses, so we show both.
