Why Turkey stands out in health tourism
Turkey is among the countries that receive the most health tourism patients. According to Turkish Ministry of Health figures, the number of patients arriving for treatment has grown over the years. Several concrete factors lie behind that interest.
Access to clinics and choice
Turkey has clinics in many cities, across different specialties, that regularly treat international patients. In fields such as Dental Treatments and Hair Transplant, clinics usually prepare packages covering transfer, accommodation and interpreting support; exactly which services are included is listed item by item in the quote you receive.
International accreditation
JCI (Joint Commission International) accreditation rests on independent audits covering patient safety, infection control and operating-theatre standards. Turkey has hospitals holding JCI accreditation. To confirm whether a particular clinic is accredited, you can check JCI's own directory and review the details on the clinic's profile page.
Frequently chosen treatments
- Hair Transplant — hair transplant techniques (FUE, DHI, Sapphire FUE)
- Dental Treatments — dental treatment (implants, zirconium, smile design)
