Different reports have claimed that there is not much difference in
the quality of care and in some cases; it is considered as superior
to what is available in UK. There are English speaking doctors
available in most of the hospitals therefore; there is hardly anyone
who has ever complained about the language barriers.
Along with the finest treatments, Turkey has the most
affordable doctors and surgeons. The cost of treatment is lower as
compared to UK due to the lower cost of living. Medication is
cheaper and fees are considerably low as compared to many countries.
Facilities provided are not limited to a small extent. The private
patients pay directly to the doctor or private hospitals, and no
administrative paperwork about insurance is required. Medication and
treatment, dentistry inclusive, is at half the rates compared to UK.
If you talk about medical tourism then you must know that people
travel from Europe to enjoy fertility treatment, cosmetic surgery
and other finest treatments available here.
If you live in Europe or Middle East or at any part of the
world and you are thinking about medical tourism at Turkey, then it
is guaranteed that you will never regret on your decision. Turkey is
one of the top three countries which provide medical tourism. If you
talk about the quality, then the finest quality, affordable doctors
and surgeons and comfortable environment are a few words to answer
your question. In fact, quality medication and care is the one of
reasons for heavy density of incoming traffic in Turkey. It is very
common that when people go through the list of countries which offer
medical tourism and they always end up choosing Turkey!
Facilitating patients and providing the best ever treatments
are not quite easy for Turkey. Apart from the other problems faced
by the doctors, the two new laws came into force to the medical
health system in Turkey which has made the doctors upset .
- The first one talks about the full day working and it came
into force in October last year. This law forces the doctors and
professors to work a full day in public and university hospitals.
Now the doctors cannot earn extra money from their part time
clinics.
- The second law allows the doctors and nurses from other
countries to come and work in Turkey due to the shortage of doctors
and nurses.
There are 150 doctors and 200 nurses for 100,000 people in
turkey. These numbers are very low when compared to European
figures. The doctors are of the view that in spite of calling new
doctors from abroad, it is better to train new doctors because as
foreign help is not a permanent solution. This issue is still in
process but to meet the increasing demand 500,000 doctors are hired
this year. This number is expected to increase as the demand of the
specialized doctors is constantly increasing.
No matter what sort of situation occurs in the country,
Turkey is known for maintaining the quality. Considering medical
tourism, Turkey is planning to tackle the issue of shortage of
medical staff for best quality and to provide affordable doctors and
surgeons.
