Istanbul Florence Nightingale Hospital

"I came here for Covid test to travel back to the States. You have to enter the emergency section of the hospital where you'll see Covid testing sign. Besides the lack of English speaking staff, the process went pretty smoothly. The lady took my passport, asked for my phone number and email address, and I paid 250TL for the test ($29). I was told that I would receive a text message the next day and will need to come back to pick up the result in person, they wouldn't email it. The following day I've been waiting for the text message or some sort of notification from them, even asked a turkish speaking friend to give them a call, and was told that until I receive a message from them the result was not ready yet. When more than 24 hours passed by after I took the test I decided to walk into the hospital to pick up the result, had enough stress already flying back the next morning. I used Google translate to explain to the front desk that I came for my result and that the test was taken the day before. Few minutes later they handed me a piece of paper that showed my negative covid test with a stamp. Apparently results came in on the same day I took the test, just a few hours later. However I was never notified and had I not showed up they would have never called me as they were supposed to! Bottom line - very nice, clean and high level hospital with staff that doesn't speak English and therefore you might be screwed if you don't push them and claim what they promised to you."

"They do not accept SGK/GSS), general Insurance of the country). if you are a foreigner with legal Resident permit starting with 99** . DO NOT GO . I was sick travelled 8 hours to make 0900 AM appointment and they rejected me which is not fair."

"I can hardly describe how wonderful the hospitality and the experience we had under the care of the staff at Florence Nightingale Hospital in Istanbul. From the timely communication before we arrived to the airport transfer service to the kind and caring hospital staff all around, and the quality of healthcare services we received, we are speechless. Our gratitude goes to Alişer for the great co-ordination of all the teams involved, our translators as well did a superb job(thank you Enes 🙏🏾). Most of all Prof Topçular and Dr Özay did a fantastic job and the medical trip was an outstanding success. Would recommend this hospital to anyone looking for the one of the best healthcare providers worldwide."

"I travelled from Scotland to Florence Nightingale Hospital in Istanbul after a routine check-up flagged something that needed further investigation. The whole process, including the endoscopy, was handled smoothly and efficiently. The translators were excellent and made everything easy to understand, guiding me at every stage. The doctor was attentive, reassuring, and explained everything clearly. Overall, a very positive experience… I will be back for my yearly checkup next year."

"I reached out to the orthopaedic department at Florence Nightingale Hospital in Istanbul for a second opinion after having ankle reconstruction surgery. I wanted more clarity on the next steps and what could be done over the next five years. The whole experience was very smooth and professional. The team took the time to explain everything in detail, and I felt well guided throughout. It gave me real confidence in planning my recovery going forward"
