Is Acibadem JCI-accredited, and how can I verify it?

Yes. 7 Acibadem hospitals hold current Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation, the global benchmark for hospital quality and patient safety.

The 7 accredited hospitals include Maslak, Altunizade, Atakent, Adana, and Izmir Kent in Turkey, plus Sistina in North Macedonia and City Clinic Tokuda in Bulgaria.

Acibadem also holds ISO 9001, ISO 15189, and ISO 27001 certifications and operates under the HealthTürkiye programme licensed by the Republic of Turkey Ministry of Health.

Does Acibadem treat patients from my country, and what languages are supported?

Yes. Acibadem treats international patients from 90+ countries and holds formal embassy and consulate agreements in 37+ countries, including the UK, USA, Germany, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, and Nigeria.

Professional medical interpreters cover 20+ languages inside every hospital, including Arabic, Russian, German, French, English, Azerbaijani, Kazakh, Uzbek, Serbian, Bulgarian, and Dutch.

Every international patient is assigned a named coordinator who speaks their language and stays with the case from first contact through post-treatment follow-up. 

What happens if I develop complications after returning home from Turkey?

Before you leave Turkey, you receive a complete written discharge summary covering your diagnosis, procedure, medication plan, follow-up schedule, and warning signs, formatted for your home-country doctor or emergency team.

For non-urgent questions after returning home:

  • Your named international patient coordinator remains contactable.
  • Remote video follow-up with your treating specialist can be arranged where clinically appropriate.

For urgent symptoms: seek immediate local emergency care. Your discharge summary gives local doctors everything they need to treat you without contacting Turkey first.
