HOSPITALS FAQ
Where are your partner hospitals located?
We partner with a range of world-class hospitals in Turkey. They are located in Istanbul, Izmir, Kusadasi, Soke and Aydin so, not only will you have your procedure performed in a state-of-the-art facility, you’ll get to experience an incredible cultural exchange along the way.
What are the hospitals like in Turkey?
Turkey is currently the number one destination for Medical Tourism in the world. Their hospitals are some of the finest in the world, known for their incredible staff and state-of-the-art technology. The hospitals and clinics that we partner with are renowned for their exceptional client care and the rooms on the ward actually resemble luxury hotels!
How long will I need to stay in hospital?
Your time spent in hospital after surgery will depend on the procedure you have and its complexity. In Turkey, most clients are required to complete an overnight stay. This allows nursing staff to monitor the initial stages of recovery and is part of the next-level service you receive in Turkey. If surgical drains are placed to remove fluid from the incision sites after surgery, your stay may be longer (typically up to 2 nights). As with all aspects of your Plastic Surgery journey, your Surgeon will provide you with tailored advice and timeframes for your procedure.
Do I need an overnight hospital bag?
It’s always best to be over prepared when it comes to packing your hospital bag. This ensures that you have everything you need if you need to stay longer than you anticipated. Essential items to take to hospital include your passport; a small amount of money (Turkish Lira); your phone/mobile devices (for entertainment), chargers, and a Turkey power adapter; toiletries; post-surgery support garments; pyjamas & bed socks; a clean change of clothes & underwear (loose fit/easy to get on and off); your regular medications; tissues, wet wipes; and a book. For more information, please refer to our Ultimate Packing List.
Will I get my own hospital room?
Yes. As part of your GoldenSands package, you will get a private hospital room in one of our state-of-the-art Turkish hospitals. All hospital rooms are set up to resemble luxury hotel rooms, so you can rest assured you’ll be in the utmost comfort during your initial recovery.
Can someone stay with me?
Yes, in fact we encourage all our clients to have a companion with them to discharge them from hospital and stay with them for at least 24 hours. Your companion can stay with you overnight in hospital in the same room, on a daybed. Please talk to your Client Manager if you would like this to happen so that they can confirm the details with you.
How will I get to hospital?
Your hospital transfer will collect you from your hotel. Please wait in the lobby for their arrival. A reminder—specific details of your transfers will be contained in your Final Hospital Treatment Plan.
Where do I go to be admitted?
Upon arrival at the hospital, you will be directed to the Patient Admission desk. Here, you will register and complete your admission paperwork. You will need your passport for this process.
