Memorial Hospital - Bahcelievler

I’ve read a lot of negative reviews regarding the VIP health check-ups, respectfully I can understand everyone’s concerns surrounding the process of the checkup but for me it was a positive one. If you are staying within 10km’s distance from the hospital they offer a free shuttle service to and from the hospital, but as I was a little further I made my own journey there. Upon arrival you are visually pleased with the entrance and lobby area of the hospital, which is spotless and looks more like a mall than a hospital. You will then need to go upstairs to the ‘Check-Ups’ section of the hospital located on the first floor, where your registration will be completed and you will pay the remainder of your balance for the service. Within a few minutes you are asked to come in for the first part of your tests which is the bloods, where you are also given plastic containers for your stool and urine samples which are needed after the Radiology and Ultrasound scans of your internal organs - which are all done within 20/30mins of your blood tests. Alongside this they do a full scan of your dental health. You are then asked to go downstairs for your cardiovascular tests where you are scanned again with an Ultrasound and then your heart is stress tested on a treadmill alongside your blood pressure. You are then referred to a heart specialist who does an Ultrasound scan of your heart again and goes through in some detail the condition of your heart from the stress test results and Ultrasound scan. After going back upstairs and giving your folder back to the Check-Ups reception you are then offered a complementary breakfast/lunch which is a decent menu that has most dietary options. Almost immediately after this, you are then transferred to the ‘Ear, Nose & Throat Ophthalmology’ section of the hospital where they perform an eye test for you and if you need or have glasses they confirm your prescription. After this, you are taken to the Urology department where the Doctor goes through your result's and gives some advice based on this. The final part of the Check-Up was the consultation with the head doctor to discuss all your results in general and they will give you advice on any medication/supplements you should use for any health conditions you may have, if any. Rest assured all the departments of the hospital are within 1 minute walking distance from each other. Overall, I was very satisfied with the detail and speed of the service. The staff were generally professional and polite.

I have gone to hospitals across the world, including hospitals in Southeast Asia, Europe and America included. And by far, I have received the best treatment, care, and support from Memorial Bahçelievler’s wonderful team of doctors, assistants, nurses, etc. One of the best if not the best doctors are in this hospital, and they are all nice and thoughtful as well. I don’t have a single complaint with Memorial Bahçelievler. Absolutely amazing service.

We came to Istanbul from America for the VIP Women’s check up at this hospital. Due to the reviews and popularity we had high expectations and I’m happy to say that they were exceeded. All of our concerns were addressed and the test were VERY thorough. Our translator/guide, Kardelen, made the experience even better. She was so friendly and helpful. We can’t say enough good things about Kardelen and the hospital experience

Great overall experience at the hospital for a comprehensive male check up. Our interpreter Anka was amazing and kept me informed the entire time I was at the hospital either in person or on chat, even after-hours. It was a very streamlined experience with some wait times between tests, which is understandable and expected, but we completed the process ahead of schedule. The physicians I met were all very friendly and answered all my questions to my satisfaction. All staff were very nice. Facility is very clean and I can recommend the Memorial hospital for check-ups.

Memorial is amazing! They have a well coordinated and streamlined process for international patients, their translators are very kind and helpful, the doctors are all very knowledgeable and professional about what they do, and even the shuttle drivers are super friendly, although not all of them speak English. I would highly recommend Memorial to anyone looking for a good hospital.
