Most people wouldn’t necessarily think of Turkey as a medical tourism destination, but the truth of the matter is that medical tourism in Turkey is booming. Surgeons in Turkey have become famous for their medical treatments in cosmetic and plastic surgery, LASIK eye surgeries, and the cost of treatment in Istanbul offer some of the lowest in middle Europe.

Affordable treatment in Turkey includes services provided by the Florence Nightingale Hospital in Istanbul, which includes cancer treatment, chronic disease treatments and fertility treatments, just to name a few.

The CTG Healthcare Group in Izmir offers obesity/bariatric surgery, plastic and cosmetic surgery and orthopedic/knee surgery, all performed by doctors in Turkey who meet standards in excellence and training.

Turkey is fast gaining a reputation of providing superlative medical and health care in many fields, including cosmetic and plastic surgery, cardiac care and procedures, vision, LASIK technology and orthopedics and dentistry, just to name a few. With state-of-the-art facilities located not only in her major cities such as Istanbul and Ankara, but scattered along the southern portion of the state along the Mediterranean, Turkish physicians and surgeons offer high class care and expertise to natives and international travelers. The majority of Turkish physicians and surgeons are trained in Europe or the United States, and offer experience and knowledge in new technologies and techniques.

In addition, medical costs for procedures and surgeries in Turkey offer international medical travelers huge savings that generally amount to as much as 50% to 75% on costs for the same surgeries and procedures in the U.S.
