About the clinic
Medipol Mega University Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, provides a full spectrum of care for Type 1 Diabetes, from detailed diagnostics to advanced insulin pump therapy. An initial consultation with an endocrinologist may cost around $655, while a comprehensive set of blood tests typically runs $400–$500. Specialist Prof. Mustafa KENDİRCİ, a faculty member at the hospital's pediatric endocrinology department, oversees patient care at this JCI-accredited, 810-bed facility.
Diagnostic Process for Type 1 Diabetes
The clinic offers a full diagnostic workup. This helps confirm the diagnosis and check for related conditions. The process usually includes several key steps.
- Consultation with pediatric endocrinologist (around $150–$200).
- Blood tests for hormonal profiles and glucose levels (around $400–$500).
- Ultrasound imaging of the thyroid and abdomen (from $150–$400).
- Specialized kidney tests like voiding cystography or renal scintigraphy (around $500).
- Urine tests (around $150).
This diagnostic package can be completed over a 4 to 7-day stay in Turkey.
Treatment with an Insulin Pump
The primary treatment offered is insulin pump therapy. This is a device for chronic diabetes management. It delivers insulin continuously under the skin. The key benefit is better glucose control with fewer daily injections.
Pump initiation typically requires a short hospital stay of 1 to 4 days. This allows for device installation, patient training, and dosage fine-tuning.
The cost for starting insulin pump therapy may begin around $1,000. This price generally covers the device installation and necessary doctor consultations. Hospitalization and any additional diagnostic tests are not included.
Under the supervision of a specialist like Prof. KENDİRCİ, patients receive personalized care plans. The JCI accreditation ensures high standards of medical safety and quality. For those seeking comprehensive Type 1 Diabetes management, Medipol Mega provides integrated diagnostics and modern treatment options.

I liked everything — how they provided transport to the hospital for consultations and follow-up appointments, how they advised — very respectful and empathic. And if we were waiting for a doctor’s appointment, it was comfortable — in VIP rooms with tea, coffee and cookies))) THANKS HUGE FOR SUCH A WARM RECEPTION !!!! Separately, I would like to note the work of our ANSAR coordinator - this is really a wonderful professional, a man of his word, he has everything under control and you don’t worry for anything! This man advised us all 24/7 !!!! THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP IN ALL! !!! Another employee of this hospital who just perfectly completed his work (even more than ideal) is BABAJAN! He literally translated everything, tried to help the ophthalmologist as well with examining a child, he’s always happy to ask questions because he’s always happy to help. To meet such amazing people abroad, far from home is just happiness! I will not tire of repeating that the more professional a person is, the more human qualities and tact are in him. This is Babajan about you! We are very grateful to you as a whole family! Thank you very much for a nice and very kind girl, translator-Aisalkyn! Competent, tactful and very nice ! Briefly about the doctors, we had an ophthalmologist for the child and a gynecologist for me. I am completely happy and would like to return to them!

Neredeyse eşimle beraber 5 yıldır her zor durumda kaldığımızda ziyaret ederek hizmet aldığımız, tedavi olduğumuz hatta ameliyat olduğumuz hastane. Türkiye'de daha mükemmeli yoktur diye düşünüyorum.

Bu verdiğim 5 yıldız sadece doc. Dr Hasan demirhan ve Professor Dr yıldırım bayazit’a Yurt dışından geldim ve bu iki doktor çok iyi ve ilgiliydi ondan hariç yeşil kart ya da SSK yoksa para tuzağı. Bu iki doktoru KBB için kesinlikle öneririm.
