About the clinic
Patients seeking treatment for polyps of the gastrointestinal tract can find advanced care at Hisar Hospital Intercontinental in Istanbul, Turkey. Blood tests for tumor markers cost around $70–$100, while a diagnostic endoscopy is around $700 and a colonoscopy typically runs $800. The hospital is JCI-accredited and uses a specialized endoscopy lab equipped with videoendoscopic technology for precise polyp detection.
Specialist expertise
Treatment is led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Tarik Akar, a gastroenterologist with over 25 years of experience. Dr. Akar is a published researcher with 15+ international papers on digestive health. He specializes in advanced endoscopic techniques, including endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and ERCP. His focus involves identifying and removing growths before they develop into more serious conditions.
Diagnostic procedures
The clinic offers a full range of tests to identify the size, location, and nature of gastrointestinal polyps. Most patients start with lab tests and imaging before proceeding to an endoscopic exam. Available diagnostics include:
- Tumor marker blood test. A simple screening that may cost around $70–$100.
- Lab tests. These include blood and stool analysis, typically costing around $300.
- MRI of the abdominal cavity. Detailed imaging for around $700.
- Endoscopy and colonoscopy. Visual exams using videoendoscopes to find polyps in the stomach or colon.
- Biopsy. The removal of a tissue sample for analysis, which typically runs $1,000–$1,200.
Treatment through endoscopic polypectomy
The primary method for treating gastrointestinal polyps at the hospital is endoscopic polypectomy. This is a minimally invasive procedure where the doctor removes the polyp during a colonoscopy or gastroscopy. The clinic uses high-definition videoendoscopes to guide the removal precisely. This approach often prevents the need for open surgery and helps stop the development of colorectal cancer. Most patients undergo this as an outpatient procedure or require only a very short hospital stay.

The physicians and staff were exceptional
If you're considering a medical check-up abroad, here’s my honest take. I traveled from the U.S. to Istanbul for a comprehensive medical examination at Hisar Hospital, arranged through Bookimed. The physicians and staff were exceptional. I found them professional and genuinely caring. On the other hand, the overall efficiency could be improved, particularly with appointment scheduling and the wait times between departments; better coordination would make the experience smoother. Despite the delays, the quality of care and affordability made it worthwhile, and I received valuable insight into my health at a fraction of the U.S. cost.
I recently traveled from the U.S. to Istanbul for a comprehensive medical examination at Hisar Hospital, arranged through Bookimed. The physicians and medical staff were exceptional—professional, thorough, attentive, and genuinely caring.
Although there were some scheduling delays and opportunities to improve efficiency, the quality of care and affordability made the experience worthwhile. I received valuable insight into my health at a fraction of what similar care would cost in the U.S.
I'm grateful to Bookimed for helping coordinate my visit and to Hisar Hospital for the excellent medical care. I would absolutely recommend both to anyone considering medical tourism!
The overall efficiency could be improved, particularly with appointment scheduling, wait times between departments, and communication throughout the process. Better coordination would make the experience smoother and less time-consuming for patients.

I can confirm that this part of my medical journey was managed with thorough competence
My primary concern before traveling for a PET-CT with Gallium 68 was the logistical side of things and whether every step would be clearly explained and executed in a new medical system. These worries proved to be entirely unfounded. The entire process was managed with clear and direct communication from the staff and the surgeon, which made a significant difference. The clinic's organization was evident. Everything was handled systematically, and each stage of the diagnostic procedure was laid out for me beforehand, so there were no surprises. The approach was very professional. but I can confirm that this part of my medical journey was managed with thorough competence.

The care I received on-site was excellent
The most important thing for future patients to know is to be prepared for new realities. I came ready for a laser enucleation operation for my medium-sized prostate, but I ended up undergoing a steam ablation procedure instead after my consultation. My surgeon was very good. He clearly explained the urination improvement timeline, which was quite reassuring as I begin my recovery. Although there has been little contact from the clinic since I left, the care I received on-site was excellent. My main advice is to go in with an open mind, as your final treatment plan might be different from what you initially expected.
