Features of the health care system of Turkey

Thanks to a number of measures taken to modernize the health care system, Türkiye has become one of the leading countries in the world in terms of the level of medical services:  

• the clinical base is developing in the country, new hospitals and medical centers are opened every year, in connection with which the number of beds per capita is increasing;

• the number of doctors increases and the level of their training increases.

The state's medical system offers all types of services in the main areas: ophthalmology, orthopedics, traumatology, diseases of internal organs, otorhinolaryngology, gynecology, general surgery, diseases of the teeth and oral cavity, neurosurgery, skin and venereal diseases (dermatology), and pediatrics.

Thanks to the growing number of doctors and their high level of training, the professional level in many new medical areas, such as plastic surgery, eye and heart surgery, has significantly increased in Turkey. Also, in recent years, Turkey has developed significantly in the following fields: organ transplantation, treatment of eye diseases, dentistry, plastic medicine and hair transplantation.

The variety of medical services attracts medical tourists to the country, who come to Turkey for treatment, and also contributes to the growth of the number of elderly foreigners who want to live here in retirement.

Advantages of the medical system of Turkey

Experts highlight a number of reasons why Türkiye occupies a leading position in the world in the field of health care:

• high level of service quality;

• favorable geographical position - at the intersection of 3 continents, where 1.5 billion people live, who can fly to Turkey in just 4 hours at most;

• developed transport system in the country;

• mild favorable climate.

Of course, one of the key factors, thanks to which Türkiye occupies the position of the leading country in the world in terms of the level of development of the health care system, is the experience and professionalism of doctors. Being a doctor in Turkey is honorable and prestigious, so successful and intelligent school graduates often choose medical universities for admission.

Again, due to population density and structure, the number and variety of clinical cases faced by Turkish physicians in their practice is greater than in many other countries. This factor expands the opportunities of specialists to gain important experience and learn in practice. All this has a positive effect on the level of qualification of Turkish medical personnel.

The list of factors thanks to which Türkiye attracts the attention of potential patients and has more advantages for treatment in the country compared to other states:

• provision of services at the level of global indicators;

• availability of modern equipment and materials, as well as a large number of beds;

• a high number of accredited medical institutions and organizations;

• availability of narrow-profile specialists;

• involvement of advanced innovative methods of treatment;

• competitive prices;

• individual approach in treatment;

• personnel who speak foreign languages;

• efficiency of the services provided;

• in addition to traditional methods - the use of alternative approaches in treatment.

All these factors attract to the country tourists who come to restore health, as well as those who want to lead a healthy lifestyle after retirement and receive quality medical services.
