Surgery clinics in Turkey
Each medical center in Turkey has specialized surgery departments, where doctors perform complex interventions to treat patients with various pathologies. Turkish surgeons undergo training with TOP doctors in European and American clinics. Therefore, medical tourists often choose Turkey for planning surgical treatment.
More than 30 hospitals in Turkey are accredited by the Joint Commission International JCI. This means that the hospitals have passed rigorous checks and received quality certificates that meet international standards. The largest medical centers in Turkey have such a certificate, so any type of surgical intervention is safe for patients and has a high rate of treatment success.

Benefits of surgical treatment in Turkey
Medical care in Turkey is at the same high level as in Europe and Israel. Therefore, the quality of diagnostics, treatment, rehabilitation and service in Turkish hospitals meets all the standards of medical tourism.
State clinics and private medical complexes have all the necessary equipment for the surgical treatment of patients. This applies to all types of operations in the following areas:
- General surgery;
- Neurosurgery;
- Removal of malignant and benign tumors;
- Face and body plastic surgeries;
- Bariatrics;

Modern methods of surgery in Turkish clinics
Surgical departments of Turkish clinics are equipped with the latest generation equipment, which allows for low-traumatic operations. Turkish doctors prefer minimally invasive interventions using the Da Vinci robotic surgical unit. The advantage of surgery on the Da Vinci robot for the patient is minimal incisions in the skin (1-1.5 cm), due to which healing occurs much faster than with abdominal surgery. For a doctor, this is an opportunity to carry out the most accurate surgical treatment of tumors of various etiologies.
Doctors in Turkish hospitals have extensive clinical experience with modern equipment. Surgeries to remove intervertebral hernias, gallbladder, tumors in the abdominal cavity (for medical reasons) are performed laparoscopically. In some clinics in the CIS, doctors of surgical departments still prefer classic operations with incisions of 15-20 cm. The main reason is the lack of modern devices for minimally invasive surgery.
Turkish clinics, where cancer treatment is carried out, are equipped with modern radiosurgery equipment. Oncologists have the ability to treat inoperable tumors using the CyberKnife and Gamma Knife radiosurgical units.
All types of surgery are available in Turkish clinics — invasive and non-invasive. Therefore, foreign patients will be able to find a medical solution for any diagnosis.
