Safety
What can go wrong abroad, why, and how a hospital setting changes the odds.
A hospital, not a package clinic
Most problems reported by patients who travelled for treatment share the same features: rushed planning, premises without hospital backup and no follow-up. The setting decides the odds.
Anaesthesia and intensive care on site
Every procedure is planned with an anaesthesia department, ICU, imaging and laboratory on the same campus — the backup a clinic cannot offer.
Licensed physicians, verifiable
Board-certified specialists in named hospitals, with JCI accreditation you can check on the public register — not an anonymous "team".
Records-first planning
Your medical records are reviewed by a physician before any date or quote. Suitability is decided clinically, not commercially.
Follow-up after you fly home
Full records shared with your own doctor, structured remote follow-up and a coordinator who stays reachable.
From your first message to follow-up at home
Remote medical review
Send your records and photos; a physician confirms whether the treatment is suitable. Free, and it can end in "not advisable".
Personal plan and quote
Procedure, hospital, expected stay and a written quote based on your records — not a package price.
Arrival and coordinator
Airport transfer, accommodation and a coordinator who speaks your language and manages every appointment.
Consultation and tests
In-person examination, pre-operative tests and an anaesthesia assessment before anything is confirmed.
Treatment and recovery
Treatment in the hospital, monitored recovery and checks before you are cleared to travel.
Back home
Records for your own doctor, remote follow-up and clear guidance on when to seek help.

Before you decide
Is treatment in Türkiye safe?
It depends on where it happens. In an accredited hospital — with an anaesthesia department, intensive care, imaging and licensed physicians on one campus — planned treatment is delivered to the same international standards you would expect at home. Problems reported abroad usually share the same features: rushed planning, premises without hospital backup and no follow-up. Our safety guide explains how to check any provider.
How does the process work from the UK or the US?
You send your records for a free remote review; a physician confirms suitability and you receive a personal plan and quote. A coordinator arranges dates, transfers and accommodation. Consultation and tests happen on arrival, then treatment, recovery in Istanbul and structured follow-up after you fly home.
Why is treatment in Türkiye less expensive?
Lower salaries, overheads and property costs — not lesser materials or shortcuts. The same implant brands, lasers and surgical platforms are used. The Price Index shows verified UK, US and Türkiye ranges side by side.
Do I need a visa?
UK, Irish, US, Canadian and Australian passport holders currently enter Türkiye visa-free for up to 90 days. Rules change; check the official source before you travel.
What happens if I have a complication after I return home?
Your care team stays reachable and shares your full records with your own doctor. Urgent problems are treated locally as for any patient; your GP or physician should be informed before you travel.
Which hospitals treat international patients?
Acıbadem's Istanbul flagship hospitals — Maslak, Altunizade, Ataşehir and Atakent among them — with dedicated international patient departments and coordinators in more than 20 languages.
Send your records, get a physician's answer
No commitment. A specialist reviews your case and tells you whether treatment is advisable, what it would involve and what it would cost.
