How it works
Your care journey in Turkey, step by step: from your first message until you are back home.
Getting treated abroad can seem complicated. With TurquieMed, the journey is simple and you always know which step you are at: you send your request, a doctor reviews your file, you receive a detailed quote, then we organize your entire stay.
You pay nothing to get an opinion and a quote, and you only commit once everything is clear to you.
The 5 steps of your journey
You send us your requestToday
Through the website form or on WhatsApp, you describe your needs and send us your test results, photos or reports if you have them. An advisor who speaks your language replies and tells you if anything is missing.
A doctor reviews your fileWithin 48 hours
We forward your file to the doctors of partner hospitals and clinics who perform your treatment. They tell you whether the procedure is possible and suitable, which technique is recommended and how long to plan in Turkey.
You receive your quote and decideAt your own pace
The quote is free, detailed and with no obligation: treatment, hospital, hospital nights, hotel, transfers and what is not included. You ask all your questions, to the doctor and to us, before choosing your dates.
We organize your stayBefore you leave
Hospital appointments, hotel booking, airport pick-up, transfers and interpreter: everything is ready before you arrive. On site, our team supports you and is available 24/7.
You go home with your fileAfter treatment
You leave with your reports, prescriptions and the list of check-ups to plan, to give to your doctor. We remain available after your return for any question.
We organize, your doctor decides
TurquieMed is not a hospital and does not make diagnoses. Here is who takes care of what.
TurquieMed takes care of
- Connecting you with the hospital
- Medical appointments
- Your hotel during your stay
- Transfers between the airport, the hotel and the hospital
- Assistance available 24/7
Your doctor decides
- Whether the procedure is right for you
- The most suitable technique
- The risks and recovery to expect
- How long you need to stay
- When you can travel
Which documents should you send?
The more complete your file, the more accurate the first opinion. Here is what is useful depending on your project:
- Cosmetic surgery : photos of the area to be treated, your age, weight, height and medical history.
- Obesity surgery : your weight, height, illnesses and treatments, and the report of any previous operation.
- Dental care : a recent panoramic X-ray and a few photos of your teeth.
- Cancer : the pathology report, the latest imaging and the list of treatments already received.
- Ophthalmology : your latest eye tests and your current prescription.
What your stay usually includes
- consultations and tests before treatment;
- the treatment or procedure, and the hospital nights;
- the hotel during your stay;
- airport pick-up and transfers between the airport, hotel and hospital;
- an interpreter and assistance available 24/7.
The exact details appear on your quote. Flights and follow-up after your return are usually at your own expense.
Preparing your medical trip
- Entry requirements
- Visa rules depend on your nationality: many countries are visa-exempt for short stays, others can apply for an e-Visa online. Your passport must usually be valid for at least 150 days after entry. Check the official rules before booking.
- Insurance and costs
- A planned treatment in Turkey is usually not covered by public health insurance in your country. Ask your insurer in writing before committing, and check whether your travel insurance covers complications.
- Your doctor
- Talk about your plans with your general practitioner or specialist. They will follow you after your return and can point out any reason not to travel or not to have the procedure.
- Travel dates
- Turkey is on UTC+3 all year round. After surgery, the doctor decides when you can fly again: book a flexible return ticket.
