About Gastroscopy / colonoscopy

Gastroscopy and colonoscopy are essential diagnostic procedures used to examine the digestive tract and detect potential issues such as ulcers, polyps, inflammation, or early-stage cancers. Gastroscopy involves using a thin, flexible tube with a camera to view the oesophagus, stomach, and upper small intestine, while colonoscopy provides a detailed examination of the large intestine. HealMinded partners with Turkey’s leading gastroenterology clinics, where international patients benefit from state-of-the-art endoscopy units and highly skilled specialists. These procedures are typically performed under sedation for patient comfort and provide rapid, accurate results that guide treatment planning. Early detection is key to preventing more serious conditions, making these procedures highly valuable for preventive healthcare. Turkey offers affordable yet high-quality medical services, ensuring that patients receive world-class care at a fraction of the cost in many Western countries. With HealMinded, patients can access trusted hospitals, expert specialists, and seamless medical travel arrangements for a safe and comfortable experience.
