Immunotherapy for breast cancer in Turkey typically costs from $9,500 to $17,500. The final price depends on the drug regimen, number of cycles, and specific cancer subtype like triple-negative breast cancer. In the US, similar procedures cost around $70,000 on average. Turkey offers savings of around 81%. Programs generally include specialist consultations, infusion services, and basic laboratory monitoring.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing JCI-accredited centers like Anadolu Medical Center or Memorial Şişli ensures access to Johns Hopkins-level protocols. Patients benefit from ESMO-certified specialists like Dr. Yesim Yildirim or Dr. Seref Komurcu who manage over 65,000 patients annually. This high volume allows clinics to offer advanced therapies like Keytruda as outpatient procedures, reducing overall hospital costs.

Healthcare is the key development sector of the Turkish government. The Turkish authorities are convinced that care for the citizens' health should be an absolute priority of state policy and spend about 77 billion liras for healthcare annually.
As a result, 28,000 medical facilities provide excellent medical care in the country. About 50 centers have certificate of JCI (Joint Commission International), the international improver of healthcare quality and safety across the globe. The index of certificates obtained is the largest. To compare, Israel has 20 JCI-accredited facilities, and Germany — only 10 clinics of this type.

In Turkey, hotels of different price ranges and service levels are presented. The level of Turkish hotels is comparable to hotels in Tunisia, Morocco or Egypt. Most tourists choose 4 and 5 star hotels with all-inclusive meals. Such hotels have everything for a comfortable stay: varied food, a large well-groomed territory, animation for children and adults. Some hotels have their own water park, which guests can use for free. Budget travelers can afford to book an economical 3-star hotel with half board or no meals at all.
The main advantage of Turkish resorts is the long beach season. On the Mediterranean coast, it starts in April and lasts until November. In the resorts of the Aegean Sea — from May to October. The most comfortable time for swimming is from mid-June to the end of October. A large influx of tourists is in July-August, when the air temperature is +38°C, and the water warms up to +27°C.
In 2020, the Republic of Turkey has visa-free agreements with 89 states. Some foreigners are exempted from obtaining entry visas, others are required to receive an electronic visa (e-Visa), and still others must apply for a visa at Turkish missions abroad.
