ENT and head & neck surgery in Istanbul: written process, multilingual support, visa and companion services — international patient experience with function-first clinical quality.
How does the international patient ENT and surgery process work in Istanbul?
The process starts with a tele-consultation. You share existing imaging and reports through a secure channel. Our team provides a written treatment plan, indicative cost range, and travel timeline. On acceptance, pre-arrival tests and the surgery-day protocol are shared in detail. A 5–7 day stay in Istanbul after surgery is recommended; remote follow-up continues by email and WhatsApp. Visa support and companion service are available on request.
