About Us
TurkishMedicalGuide.com is a non-profit, independent information platform established to guide international patients considering medical treatment in Turkey.
Our Mission and Vision
Our Mission is to treat every patient as we would our own family, equipping them with accurate and verified information, free from commercial interests, and protecting them against potential risks. We aim to be a reliable sanctuary amidst the information pollution in the health tourism market.
Our Vision is to become the first point of reference for every international patient considering healthcare in Turkey, recognized for our impartiality and honesty.
Our Principle of Impartiality and Listing Criteria
The core principle of our platform is complete impartiality. There is only one criterion for an institution, clinic, or doctor to be listed on this site:
To hold the "Health Tourism Authorization Certificate" (Sağlık Turizmi Yetki Belgesi) issued by the T.R. Ministry of Health.
Apart from this criterion, we do not request or accept any fees, commissions, or benefits from any institution for being listed. Our goal is to ensure that patients can easily access institutions that are supervised by the state and meet minimum standards.
Our Values
- Patient-Centricity: In all our decisions and content, our priority is the patient's safety, health, and right to accurate information.
- Reliability: We only present information obtained from official and verifiable sources. We also transparently share risks and potential downsides.
- Transparency: We always clearly state how we operate, what our criteria are, and what our purpose is. We have no hidden agenda.
- Responsibility: We act with an awareness of the responsibility we bear towards international patients, empowering them to make the best decisions for themselves.
