Başkent University Istanbul Hospital: more details about the clinic

Turkey, Istanbul

Başkent University Istanbul Hospital is a private multi-specialty medical center in Istanbul, Turkey. It is part of the Başkent University Healthcare Group, founded by Prof. Mehmet Haberal, a world-renowned general surgeon and transplant pioneer.

Prof. Haberal graduated from Ankara University Medical School in 1967 and earned his general surgery specialization in 1971. He continued his training in the United States at leading institutions, including Shriner’s Burns Institute and the University of Colorado Medical School’s Transplantation Center. Over the decades, he has achieved numerous surgical milestones:

  • In 1975, he performed Turkey’s first living-related kidney transplant.
  • In 1979, he completed the country’s first deceased donor kidney transplant.
  • In 1988, he carried out the first successful deceased donor liver transplant in Turkey and the region.
  • In 1990, he led the world’s first adult segmental living-related liver transplant.
  • In 1992, he performed the world’s first combined liver-kidney transplant from a living donor.

Prof. Haberal also established the Turkish Organ Transplantation and Burn Foundation (1980), the Turkish Transplantation Society (TOND) (1990), and Başkent University itself in 1993. He is an elected New York Academy of Sciences member and an Honorary Fellow of the American College of Surgeons.

Under his leadership, Başkent University Hospitals have become a regional center of excellence. The Istanbul branch offers advanced care in heart surgery, general surgery, transplantology, and comprehensive medical check-ups for adults and children. The network has performed over 772 kidney transplants, with a 94.4% success rate for living donor cases.

Patients from CIS countries, the Balkans, and Asia frequently choose Başkent University Istanbul Hospital for its expertise, academic foundation, and international medical standards.
