Istanbul patient guide

Arrive prepared. Recover at your pace.

Practical planning for arrival, accommodation, transfers, interpreting, treatment locations, and a comfortable return home.


Mia Medical is an authorized international health-tourism intermediary. Medical procedures are performed by licensed partner physicians at authorized healthcare facilities.

Arrival

Istanbul Airport and Sabiha Gökçen Airport serve different sides of the city. Your written itinerary should identify the airport, meeting point, driver, and emergency contact.

Accommodation

Choose accommodation around the treatment facility and recovery needs, not sightseeing alone. Consider lifts, accessible bathrooms, quiet rooms, food options, and companion space.

Transfers and interpreting

Confirm every included journey and interpreting appointment in writing. Keep your coordinator’s contact details available offline.

Flying home

Do not choose a return flight until the treating clinician confirms the minimum stay and follow-up plan for your procedure.
