I’m so very glad I had the best doctor and best care
My arrival at Istanbul airport was smooth and efficient. I was met and transported to my hotel. My hotel was lovely.
Transportation from hotel to hospitals on time and efficient.
I met my advocate at international patient area, she had everything under control, all tests lined up and doctor appointments were fabulous. My advocate translated to my language at every appointment.
I’m very happy with the service and I felt very “looked after”.
My outcome is excellent and I’m so very glad I had the best doctor and best care.

Whether it's the doctors, nurses or reception staff, many other hospitals should take inspiration from the Turkish hospital model
The quality of the hospital service is second to none, with well-organised, highly competent services that are always available to patients.
Whether it's the doctors, nurses or reception staff, many other hospitals should take inspiration from the Turkish hospital model.
The hospitals are like luxury hotels, you feel good, you are looked after and followed throughout your stay.
Finally, the money I spent there was really justified.
Thank you to everyone who looked after me during my 14-day stay.
Of course I recommend Istanbul Memorial Hospital.
