Private healthcare for people in Istanbul

Care in Milan, our nearest city to Istanbul

From Istanbul, our nearest city is Milan, where your concierge arranges appointments with the best clinics and stays with you until every result is explained. Fees there start with private GP from €150, doctor at your home or hotel from €160 and full body MRI from €2,750.

You can request an appointment today whether or not you are a member, and members have priority. One record holds your results and your plan, in Milan and in London alike.

Care in London for people from Istanbul

Our clinics are on Baker Street in Marylebone and Eccleston Street in Belgravia, open from early morning to evening every day. A GP appointment is £150, a doctor to your hotel is £450, and the executive physical, a full day with one physician and every result reviewed before you leave, is £2,995.

Your concierge plans any specialist, scan or test around your dates in London, so that a visit of a few days is enough.

Travelling to London for care

Holders of a passport from Türkiye are not on the list of nationalities that can apply for an electronic travel authorisation, so check on GOV.UK whether you need a Standard Visitor visa, which can cover private medical treatment [1] [2].

Health care in Istanbul

Türkiye's universal health insurance system covers approximately 95% of the population, according to the United States International Trade Administration [3].

The country has 1,566 hospitals providing 267,000 beds, and 50 to 60 of its private hospitals are accredited by Joint Commission International [3].

Istanbul stands at the crossroads of two continents, Europe and Asia, with the Bosphorus at its heart [4].

Istanbul Airport serves passengers in a single terminal of 1.4 million square metres, with an annual capacity of 90 million passengers [5].

Arranging a visit from Istanbul

Message your concierge on WhatsApp or request an appointment here, and tell us the dates you can travel and the question you most want answered. We reply within the hour, at any time of day in Istanbul, and propose appointment times before you book a flight.

Where a visit includes scans or blood tests, we set them early in your stay, so that your doctor can go through every result with you before you leave. Specialist appointments are arranged on the days around it, and each fee is told to you before anything is confirmed.

Time zones and travel

Tell us your time zone and we schedule calls with your doctor at an hour that suits you in Istanbul. After a long flight, a first appointment the following morning tends to work better than one on the day you land, and your concierge can plan around that.

Before you travel, a checklist

A little preparation lets a doctor see the whole picture on the first day.

• Your recent results and letters, in English where you can, on your phone or on paper
• A list of your medicines and their doses, with a letter from your doctor for any that are restricted
• The question you most want answered, written down
• The dates you are in the city, so your concierge can plan tests and results around them

When you are home again

Your doctor can follow up by telephone or video wherever you are, and your plan stays in your record. If you need care where you live, your concierge can help you find it and send your letters ahead, with your consent.

Every letter is written in English, so a doctor in Istanbul can read it, and your results stay available to you after you fly home. When you next travel, your doctor begins from where you left off.
