İstanbul: every government-listed medical facility
2,252 facilities in İstanbul appear on the Ministry of Health health-tourism authorized facility list as of October 27, 2026, across 54 districts. 77 of these rows belong to a provider with a researched profile on the Turkey guide. Names are shown as the regulator publishes them.
What being on this list means
The facility holds, or has qualified for, the Ministry of Health’s International Health Tourism Authorization Certificate under the 2017 regulation on international health tourism. Only facilities on this list may legally treat international health-tourism patients and advertise to them.
What it does not mean
It does not say who operates, what their training is, how many procedures they do, or how outcomes compare. The list carries no certificate numbers or dates, and it is published under legal entity names, which often differ from the brand a clinic markets abroad.
