The all-inclusive package for a living donor liver transplant may cost around $55,000 USD. The hospital is JCI and ISO accredited, ensuring international standards of safety and quality are met.
The comprehensive package covers everything for both the donor and recipient. It includes the transplant surgery itself and all necessary pre-operative tests.

Financial and Practical Details
Additional medication for conditions like hepatitis may be required. These are not included in the main package price. Patients must also arrange for a suitable living donor from their relatives. Turkish law prevents the clinic from assisting in finding a donor. An advance payment is required to begin the process and secure hospitalization.
The standard hospital stay is clearly defined. Donors typically spend one day in the ICU followed by ten days in a ward. Recipients usually stay two days in the ICU followed by twenty-one days in a ward. Patients are advised to plan for at least one week in Istanbul for the initial consultation and preparation.
For a detailed personal cost estimate and to understand the full process, you can request a consultation through Bookimed.

I can't recommend Aliser and the level of support we received enough - especially in such difficult circumstances
I highly recommend Florence Nightingale Hospital to anyone that is about to undergo a medical journey. For us, everything happened so suddenly. From the moment we uploaded files and made our request on Bookimed, Aliser as the International Coordinator was immediately on hand to support us - incredibly attentively and with compassion. He was supportive to our needs, and at a moment’s notice jumped onto WhatsApp calls to answer any questions and went above and beyond to give us the information we needed. We were navigating significant timezone issues (based in Hong Kong, whereas the patient, father-in-law, was in Albania) but we didn’t feel this burden.
We had lots of specific needs that were met, including jumping onto a Video call with Professor Yildiray Yuzer, to answer questions directly. We weren’t the easiest of patients with lots of reassurance needed, but Aliser was helpful in being able to put himself in the position of the patient and being on our side to help us. We were incredibly satisfied by the level of support that we received - especially in comparison to other hospitals in Istanbul. I can’t recommend Aliser and the level of support we received enough - especially in such difficult circumstances.
Once we arrived in Istanbul we appreciated being met with a transfer, and recommendations were made for accommodation to ensure that we were comfortable. Throughout our consultations, we most definitely felt that the Florence team was earnest - putting patient health first, above profit, which we appreciated.
During the hospital stay itself, we were also blown away by the compassion of the nurses and support staff in our ward. Something that was so challenging, was punctuated throughout with so many moments of warmth and support. In addition, the facilities, hospital rooms, and cleanliness and hygiene at Florence were fantastic, we couldn’t have wished for a better stay.
Most importantly, we were reassured by the experience and expertise of Professor Yuzer and his team. Any patient can trust that they are in expert hands. It’s also helpful to see that these skills are supported by a genuine empathy for the patient.
Ultimately, the procedure was a success (we hope that positive health outcome continues!). It feels surreal having embarked on the journey, however, I’m incredibly satisfied with the service, support and expertise of the hospital. There’s nothing I can think of to improve!
About Bookimed service
The bookimed team, in addition to Florence, were incredibly supportive and compassionate particularly in the first weeks as we sought to navigate options and make decisions.
The customer support team regularly checked in on our progress via whatsapp, and you could see that they had medical backgrounds and were incredibly competent. It felt fantastic to have their support - bookimed is an incredible platform.

The positive experience in all aspects.
Nothing to mention.

-the medical team, especially the doctors and translators were very skilled and accomodating going far above my expectations.
- any concerns of mine were answered swiftly and effectively by translator and medical staff
- the facilities were top notch and very clean
-the only thing i would want improvement in is in a few nurses who cannot understand basic english
- the staff really listened to my personal concerns and delivered accordingly
-the facilities were very clean and good
-just the lack of english in a few nurses
About Bookimed service
Their response was very fast and to the point. I didnt even know where to begin but bookimed listened to what i needed and layed out the options for me right away. Once i chose the option, they developed the plan and executed much faster than I thought even possible. In less than two weeks, I was off to my chosen hospital to receive treatment.Patient video reviews
