2. 2

   Step 2: Send a consultation request

   Use the consultation request form and name Acıbadem Bakırköy Hastanesi in your message, with the procedure and your timeframe. It takes a few minutes and does not commit you to anything.

   Step 4: We come back with options

   We check your request against the profiles we hold and the other providers that match what you are looking for, then reply with options. We are not a clinical service: nothing we send is a diagnosis or a treatment plan, and a request is not a booking.

Consultation fees, treatment prices and deposit terms are set by each practice. Before your appointment, ask Acıbadem Bakırköy Hastanesi whether there is a consultation fee and what it covers.

A reliable quote is written and itemised: the surgeon's fee, hospital and anaesthesia costs, nights in hospital, compression garments, medication, follow-up visits and transfers. Ask what is not included as well as what is.

Treat any price given before an examination as provisional. The final plan, and the final price, depend on what the surgeon finds when they examine you. The UK's NHS advises against paying for treatment at a hospital you have never seen, so keep deposits refundable where you can.
