Introduction
Medical tourism involves travelling to another destination to obtain medical services. Online review platforms provide a space where users share experiences and opinions about services and destinations. These reviews may influence how prospective medical tourists evaluate available options. Antalya provides the geographical context identified in the article title, while Trustpilot represents the online review platform under consideration. Studying online feedback can help researchers understand digital reputation and consumer perceptions in medical tourism. [1]

Gamze Alp is affiliated with Bitlis Eren University in Turkey. The provided Scopus profile data lists three documents, 26 citations, and an h-index of three. These bibliometric indicators describe the reported author profile and may change over time. The researcher’s academic record can be accessed through the corresponding Scopus and ORCID profiles.

Scientific Background
Online reviews have become a source of information for consumers evaluating tourism and service experiences. In medical tourism, potential patients may consider online feedback when assessing destinations, providers, and perceived service quality. Such reviews can offer insights into user experiences and digital reputation, although they do not independently establish clinical quality or represent every patient’s experience. Research on online reviews can contribute to understanding how digital information relates to consumer perceptions and tourism decisions. [1]
Methodology
The article title indicates an examination of online reviews related to medical tourism in Antalya, using Trustpilot as an example. The exact research design, review sample, data collection period, selection criteria, and analytical techniques are not specified in the supplied information. These methodological details should be obtained from the full article before describing the research process or its analytical procedures in greater detail. [1]
Key Findings
The supplied information establishes the article’s subject as online reviews concerning medical tourism in Antalya. However, it does not provide the article’s specific results, statistical analyses, or conclusions. Detailed findings about customer satisfaction, review sentiment, service quality, or destination reputation should therefore be drawn directly from the full publication rather than inferred from its title. [1]
Scientific Contributions
The article addresses a research topic connecting online consumer reviews with medical tourism in a specific destination. This subject is relevant to tourism management, digital reputation, consumer behaviour, and social science research. Its contribution to the field should be assessed through the article’s research design, literature review, analysis, and documented conclusions. The publication’s full text provides the appropriate basis for evaluating its originality and scholarly significance in relation to existing research. [1]
