Urgent Services and Hospitals in Istanbul
Make sure you remain safe on your trip to Istanbul! When visiting Istanbul, you will be on the move a lot, and minor inconveniences can arise. As a result, we created this helpful post to list the best hospitals in Istanbul. Keep these in mind if you experience something that affects your health during your Istanbul trip!
What To Do If You Get Sick in Istanbul?
If you have minor aches and pains (diarrhea, sore throat, cold), or if you need medication, you can visit a pharmacy (eczane). In Istanbul, pharmacies are plentiful and easily identifiable. Pharmacists in tourism hotspots are always fluent in English, well-educated, and willing to assist you.
You have a few choices if the illness cannot be handled by a pharmacist and requires medical attention. There are the emergency centers and hospitals, for starters. There are government-run hospitals in Istanbul. Since they have treatment almost for free, expect long lines and minimal equipment. A visit to one of the private hospitals is another choice (see below for two of the best private hospitals in Istanbul). These hospitals are well-equipped, have entrances that rival those of 5-star hotels, and employees that are fluent in one or two foreign languages, but they charge fees that may add up.
If you or one of your travel companions are embroiled in an emergency situation, the ambulance would most likely transport the injured to the Taksim İlk Yardım Hastanesi (Taksim First Aid Hospital), which is situated across from the German Hospital in Taksim, Istanbul.
Now, let's have a look at some of Istanbul's top private hospitals.

Are Istanbul Tourist Pass Attractions Covid-Safe?
Yes! We take cautions very seriously, and so do the museums. In comparison to other countries, Istanbul is a low-risk travel destination, and travel experts take the precautions very seriously. During museum tours, social distance is preserved, and masks are required at all times. At any given time, the number of visitors is restricted. Furthermore, since the Istanbul Tourist Pass is entirely digital, there is a lower risk of transmission when registering or visiting Istanbul's museums and palaces such as Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace.
