Some patients from Bulgaria and the rest of Europe with end-stage kidney failure consider a kidney transplant at a large hospital in Istanbul.
Transplantation

A living-donor liver transplant is a complex operation in which a healthy relative donates part of their liver.
Cardiology

Orthopaedics
Knee replacement in Turkey: choosing a hospital and surgeon and what to expect
Many patients from Bulgaria and across Europe consider having a knee replacement in Istanbul because waiting times are short and the large private hospital groups are well equipped.
Obesity
Bariatric surgery in Turkey: gastric sleeve and gastric bypass in Istanbul
Weight loss surgery can bring major health benefits in severe obesity, but it is the start of lifelong treatment rather than a one-off procedure.
Plastic surgery
Breast reconstruction in Turkey: rebuilding the breast after mastectomy in Istanbul
Rebuilding the breast after mastectomy is part of breast cancer care, and every woman for whom it is safe should be offered the option.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the consultation cost?
The first consultation and the quote are free. The treatment price depends on the diagnosis, hospital and scope, and is given in writing before you travel.
What does a package include?
Usually treatment by a named specialist, hospital admission and tests, hotel, transfers, interpreter and coordinator, plus complication insurance for operations. Flights are not included.
Which language will I use?
Coordinators and interpreters speak Bulgarian, English and many other languages.
Can I send my results in advance?
Yes. Your coordinator will explain how to share records and scans securely – please do not send them through the website form.
Do you arrange transplants with a donor?
Only within the law: in Türkiye living donation is mainly from relatives and always requires ethics committee approval. Buying or selling organs is a crime and New City Clinic takes no part in it.
