Very,very few turkish health profesionals speak good enough engliish to treat a foreign pasient. I live in Turkey and speak Turkish,-but I would not have any serious medical procedures carried out in Turkey,bcs my turkish is only up to a lenghty normal conversation,not inquiering abouth medical matters.
It is however much better than the English of the "interpreters" (realy a nurse who hapens to speak a few words of English),that private Turkish hospitals provide for non Turkish patients.

Then there is the question abouth the Turkish doctors liability for any mistakes,then,then,then.

Then there is ofcs the fact that Turks that can aford it generally go abroad for medical treatment,-maybe a tiny pointer to the generall quality???


Medical tourism to Turkey,-please take my advice and FORGET it.

Turkey is basically a nice country to visit,but it is a culture where very,very few people care abouth the quality of the services they provide,-which in the medical profesion is kind of important, particularly when its extremely hard for a foreigner withouth contacts to have recourse to legal action if anything should go wrong.
