For treatment – in Turkey!

The healthcare system in Turkey is steadily and seriously funded. State and private structures created a large number of well-equipped hospitals and clinics with excellent service. In Turkey today more than 40 medical centers and clinics are certified by the International Organization for Accreditation of health facilities (JCI). Every year hundreds of Turkish doctors specialize in leading medical centers in Germany, the USA, Israel, that allows them to quality diagnose, conduct a very serious surgery and treatment at the highest level. At the same time in recent years the Turkish government has pursued very tough pricing policies, and the cost of medical services in Turkish hospitals in most cases is 2-3 times lower than in clinics in Europe and the United States.

All this contributed to the fact that in recent years Turkey was among the ten most attractive countries in terms of medical and health tourism. Over the past five years the number of foreigners treated in hospitals in Turkey has increased five times. Only last year about 400 thousand of foreign patients were treated in Turkey.

Citizens of Germany, France, the Netherlands, Russia, Azerbaijan, Iraq, Belgium, Great Britain, Ukraine, Georgia, Kazakhstan and other countries go to Turkey for treatment.

Dental treatment, plastic surgery, hair treatment, eye and upper respiratory tract, as well as orthopedic and traumatic surgery, rehabilitation treatment after the injury, treatment of gynecological and urological diseases are the most in demand by foreigners in Turkish hospitals. Most foreigners choose clinics located in Istanbul, Ankara, and Antalya.

The most popular among foreign patients clinic in Antalya is the largest medical center in the region, MEDICAL PARK Antalya, located in Lara. MEDICAL PARK Clinic in Antalya offers a wide range of services, confirmed by the quality certificate JCI, including on medical, radiation, general oncology, transplantation surgery of internal organs, bone marrow, cardiology. In addition, the center has a clinic of aesthetic and reconstructive surgery, providing services in the field of dermatology, hair transplant, and dietetics. By the way, MEDICAL PARK Antalya established its own Centre for Genetic Research, one of five European laboratories analyzing the human genetic code. It is the leading technique in the world of dietetics. The cost of such a test, doctor consultation and patient recommendations in Antalya 3 times lower than prices in the US laboratory.

Antalya Center for Reproductive Medicine, MEMORIAL, located in the district of Kepez, is now regarded as one of the best in Europe in its field. It specializes in the treatment of infertility, it performs surgery on artificial fertilization, transplantation of various organs, including such a complex one as a pancreas transplantation.

Antalya branch of ophthalmic clinics network in the world of eye centers is located in Kepez. Clinic patients receive first-class treatment, care and living conditions. Special programs within the medical tourism, “Rest with profit to eyes”, are popular among foreign patients.

An unprecedented leap in the introduction of high-tech medical services, which in recent years has been made by the largest private clinics and medical centers in Antalya, give grounds to assert that “the spa capital of Turkey” of Antalya becomes the new leading direction of mass medical tourism.
