Aktif International Hospitals is a private healthcare group based in Istanbul, Turkey. The organization started in 1999 with a single facility in Yalova. It has since grown to five hospitals across the Marmara region. These facilities provide 24/7 care for inpatients and outpatients. The group employs about 2,000 staff members.
Group Achievements and Quality Standards
The group holds the Accessibility Certificate from the Yalova Monitoring and Inspection Commission. It maintains standardized quality management protocols across all five locations. The medical team treats patients from multiple countries. The network has operated for over 25 years in Turkish healthcare.
Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery
The plastic surgery department creates surgical plans based on each patient's anatomy. Specialists offer several methods for body contouring and facial rejuvenation:
- Rhinoplasty using open and closed techniques
- Breast augmentation with silicone implants or fat transfer
- Gynecomastia surgery via liposuction or surgical excision
- Buttock enhancement using implants or fat grafting
- Brachioplasty for arm contouring
- Neck lift and submental liposuction
Breast augmentation typically takes 1–2 hours. Surgeons place implants under the breast tissue or chest muscle. The department also performs calf enhancement using implants or the patient's own fat. Post-operative care includes physical therapy and rehabilitation support.
Gastroenterology and Proctology
The gastroenterology unit focuses on endoscopic diagnostics and surgery. Doctors use small-incision imaging to evaluate the gastrointestinal tract. A dedicated Proctology unit treats diseases of the anal region and colon.
Diagnostic and treatment options include:
- Sigmoidoscopy to screen for polyps and cancer
- Colonoscopy and esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD)
- Fecal occult blood and stool DNA analysis
- Double-contrast barium enema for colorectal X-rays
- Endoscopic removal of gastrointestinal polyps
These methods allow early detection of inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer. Specialists also manage chronic conditions like Crohn's disease and diverticulitis.
General and Pediatric Surgery
The general surgery department treats various hernias and abdominal conditions. Surgeons perform inguinal hernia repair using the Bassini or Shouldice techniques. Umbilical hernia treatments are available for adults and children. For epigastric hernias, specialists remove fat tissue and repair muscle defects with stitches.
The surgical team also performs complex procedures such as Whipple surgery. Thyroidectomy and appendectomy are available for acute and chronic conditions. Pediatric care includes specialized surgery and child psychiatry services.
Diagnostic Equipment and Technology
Aktif International uses modern diagnostic tools across its medical departments. The hospitals have CT and MRI scanners. Specialists use Cerec Omnicam Scanning for digital dental impressions. The neurology department provides electromyography (EMG) for muscle and nerve evaluations.
Available diagnostic services include:
- Endo-ultrasound for internal imaging
- Panoramic X-ray and mammography
- Helicobacter Pylori testing
- Biochemical blood analysis and biopsies
The dental unit uses these diagnostics for All-on-4 and All-on-6 implant procedures. This helps ensure precise planning before surgery.
Services for International Patients
The hospital group supports international patients throughout their care. Staff members help with communication in multiple languages. Translators and patient coordinators are available for:
- English
- Russian
- Arabic
- German
- Turkish
Medical staff provide 24/7 support and follow-up care. This includes regular check-ups and coordinated rehabilitation after major surgeries.
