Gamma Knife in Istanbul typically costs from $5,800 to $9,200. The final price depends on the lesion size, clinic accreditation level, and neurosurgeon experience. Patients save around 92% compared to the US, where this procedure costs $70,000 on average. Most Istanbul centers include neurosurgeon consultations, radiology mapping, and VIP airport-to-clinic transfers in their standard packages.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Istanbul serves as Turkey's primary neurosurgery hub, offering higher concentration of JCI-accredited clinics than Ankara or Izmir. A major advantage here is access to doctors like Dr. Turker Kilic, who brought radiosurgery expertise from the Karolinska Institute. Clinics like Medipol Mega and Istanbul Florence Nightingale bundle VIP transfers, effectively removing logistics costs from your treatment budget.
