How Much Does Prostatectomy Cost in Turkey?

A prostatectomy in Turkey typically costs from $6,400 to $16,000. The final price depends on the surgical technique, the surgeon’s experience, and the clinic's location. In the US, patients spend around $30,000 on average for this surgery. Choosing Turkey offers savings of approximately 63%. Most Turkish medical packages include the surgical procedure, hospital stays, VIP transfers, and necessary preoperative tests like PSA and MRI.

  • Robotic da Vinci prostatectomy: $17,000 to $19,000 for the most advanced minimally invasive approach.
  • Laparoscopic prostatectomy: $7,500 to $12,000 using small incisions for faster recovery.
  • Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP): $4,100 to $4,200 for treating non-cancerous enlargement.
  • Open prostatectomy: Generally ranges from 15-20% less than robotic-assisted options in most Istanbul centers.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing a professor specialized in robotic surgery often provides the highest value. Dr. Murat Binbay at Memorial Şişli Hospital has performed over 600 robotic surgeries. His HOLEP packages starting around $13,000 include PET/CT scans and premium VIP transfers. Alternatively, Hisar Hospital Intercontinental offers competitive laser options typically running about $6,350. Both clinics hold JCI accreditation, ensuring international safety standards are met.

FAQ about Prostatectomy in Turkey

These FAQs come from real patients seeking medical assistance through Bookimed. Answers are given by experienced medical coordinators and trusted clinic representatives.

What is the level of medicine in Turkey?

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.

What hotel services are provided here?

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.

When is the best time to travel to Turkey?

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.

Do I need a visa?

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.
