Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question? Our support team is here to guide you through each step of your treatment journey with personal care and attention.
Can Acibadem review my cardiac test results before I travel?

Yes. A remote cardiac records review happens before any travel is arranged.

Submit your echocardiogram, ECG, coronary CT angiography, cardiac MRI, blood results, and treatment history.

A specialist cardiologist reviews the file and confirms: whether the diagnosis is complete, what additional testing may be needed, and what a realistic treatment plan and stay length looks like.

How do I contact the international patient team about heart surgery at Acibadem?

Appointments, cardiac records review, and treatment planning are handled by the international patient team, available 24/7.

Send your echocardiogram reports, ECG, coronary angiography results, and cardiac imaging to start the review. The team manages all coordination with the cardiac specialist on your behalf.

How long will I need to stay in Turkey for heart surgery?

Stay duration depends on the procedure:

  • PCI (angioplasty & stenting): 1-2 nights hospital; allow 5-7 days total
  • CABG (bypass surgery): 5-7 nights hospital; allow 3-4 weeks
  • TAVI: 1-4 nights hospital; allow 1-2 weeks
  • Open valve surgery: 5-7 nights hospital; allow 3-4 weeks
  • Catheter ablation for AF: same day to 1 night; allow 3-7 days
  • Pacemaker or ICD: 1 night hospital; allow 3-5 days

Accommodation near the facility is arranged at no booking cost by the international patient team. Options depend on preference and budget. Your caregiver can be accommodated in the same arrangement.

How much does heart surgery in Turkey cost?

Turkey is substantially less expensive than private cardiac care in Western Europe, and a written itemised estimate is provided for your specific procedure before you travel.

No honest fixed price can be given without reviewing your anatomy and test results first, cost varies by procedure, number of grafts or valves, hospital stay length, and post operative care.

International health insurance is accepted through 69+ partners. Direct billing is available where policies permit.

Is cardiac surgery in Turkey safe, and how do I verify Acibadem's quality?

7 Acibadem hospitals hold JCI accreditation, the leading international benchmark for patient safety and quality.

Acibadem operates 16 dedicated Heart Care Centres with 93 cardiologists across 18 hospitals.

ISO certification covers quality management (ISO 9001), laboratory standards (ISO 15189), and information security (ISO 27001).

Care is organised through the heart team model, not single speciality decisions.

What is the heart team, and will my case go through one?

A heart team is a scheduled meeting where interventional cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, imaging specialists, and anaesthetists review the same case and agree on one plan.

At Acibadem this is standard practice, not optional. The cardiac surgery and interventional cardiology units are deliberately separate, the team recommending your treatment has no procedural incentive to favour one approach over another.

This matters most for patients weighing bypass vs stenting, or open valve surgery vs TAVI.
