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.

Why is Turkey trendy for medical tourism?

Turkey is also a well-known country globally due to high-skilled doctors that undergo internships in American and European institutions. Patients from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE, Jordan, and Lebanon prefer treatment in Turkey to other places. Highly developed medical centers and first-rate therapeutic services at affordable prices attract people from all over the world. Over 1 mln international patients travel to Turkey annually. So Turkey is among Top 10 countries with the most developed medical tourism sector. Turkey is a top destination for medical tourists because of low-costs. You may save up to 50% on services compared to European countries or the USA due to the average local citizens' income and general price policy within the country.

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.

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.What states need a visa for treatment in Turkey and what countries can cross the border free and easy read here.

"Clinic definitely recommend

When they learned what was needed in the clinic, they didn’t even know where to run and whom to contact. Coordinators helped to select a clinic. They gave us a doctor. Everything went great, the doctor is a true professional. Separately, I want to note the attitude to patients. We were met at the airport, brought to the clinic and there was already a translator waiting. Literally "by the hand" we were taken to the doctors, everyone translated. Then they provided a taxi to the hotel. During the operation, the ward was provided for two people - for the patient and the attendant; both of them were included in the cost of the operation. After surgery, the doctor held a consultation, making sure that you can fly back. And only then answered questions remotely that arose. Clinic definitely recommend Read more less

Doctors seemed professional

Doctors seemed professional. Low quality translation from Turkish to Russian and vice versa. For some reason, after PET KT (perhaps a coincidence), upon returning home, it was sharply worse. We had to urgently operate, although Turkish oncologists did not see the need for an operation, but offered to wait a month. Read more less

The Liv Hospital Clinic confused my diagnosis. Within two hours, I thought I had cancer. I immediately wrote to them, the answer came in two and a half hours, as they had no time to double-check. During all this time, my family and I went crazy with horror. Now they wrote to me that the translators were wrong. But pituitary adenoma is spelled the same in all languages. A malignant formation of the parotid gland is a completely different diagnosis. Read more less

FAQ about Radiotherapy for throat cancer in Turkey

Radiotherapy for throat cancer is carried by radiologists and physicians. The therapy is performed in special isolated labs, where patients are exposed to set doses of radiation in order to destroy the tumor. Radiation treatment for throat cancer is more effective if it is carried out in succession. Patients need to make as little breaks between sessions as possible.

Most clinics provide radiation treatment on an outpatient basis. It means that patients don’t need to stay in the hospital during the time between therapeutic sessions. The full course can take up to 7 weeks to complete.

There are several types of radiation treatment for throat cancer, each implementing different grades of equipment.

Types of radiation therapies for throat cancer

Image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). During this treatment, radiologists use special imaging devices to target radiation particles at the tumor. Physicians use PET-CT or X-ray scanners to localize cancer.
Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). Radiologists utilize linear accelerators to precisely irradiate tumor in the throat. The device has a special filter shaped to match tumor. This is the most common type of radiation treatment for throat cancer.
Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). This is the most contemporary disease management option. 3-dimensional irradiation equipment allows delivering high doses of radiation with minimal collateral damage to adjacent cells. The treatment process is carried out extremely fast and precise, most manipulations are automated. This allows patients to spend less time at a hospital.
