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. 

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.
