Did you know?
Due to recent push in private and government investment in healthcare, Turkey now has one of the highest rates of organ transplantation in Europe. In 2012, almost 54 people per million population received an organ transplant. This is attributed to short waiting times and an impressive capacity at local hospitals. In fact, the rate of organ transplantation in Turkey has more than quadrupled over the last decade.
The Hospitals
In recent years, private hospitals in Turkey invested heavily in creating the most advanced facilities. Everything from operating rooms to patient rooms has been carefully thought through. Patients in these hospitals enjoy world-class comfort and exceptional care before, during and after their procedures. The quality of these facilities has been reaffirmed by international organizations, such as Joint Commission International and American Hospital Association.
