Kent Hospital in Karşıyaka in Turkey, is just 30km from nearby Izmir airport. The hospital has specialised medical staff serving all branches of medicine working with the latest techonology for diagnosis and treatment.
Kent Hospital is a fully-equipped medical complex, one of the largest and most modern hospitals in South Eastern Europe. It is built according to American Institute of Architects' guidelines. The world famous Mayo Clinic provided consultancy on facility design, medical guidelines and administrative protocols which enabled the hospital to provide high quality medical care from the day it opened in 2004.
Kent Hospital was accredited by the Joint Commission International in 2006, which is the most influential non-governmental regulatory body in the world which assesses hospital facilities. Achieving JCI accreditation is a rigorous process repeated every three years, and requires supreme dedication and commitment by both administrative and clinical staff.
The hospital provides state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment services with excellent doctors who have international expertise and fine reputations. Modern technology is utilised by the hospital to ensure optimal care and patient safety. For example, an online system allows doctors to access laboratory and radiology images from anywhere in the world. Diagnostic images from radiology, coronary angiography, nuclear medicine and bone densitometry are archived digitally and made available for use within the hospital, as well as to local and international medical practitioners, while maintaining patient confidentiality.
Elective surgery at Kent Hospital
Kent Hospital offers a broad range of elective surgery procedures, including the following:
Coronary artery bypass surgery - This is a type of heart surgery, sometimes called CABG ('cabbage'). The surgery reroutes, or 'bypasses', blood around clogged arteries to improve blood flow and oxygen to the heart.
Heart valve replacement surgery - operations to replace poorly functioning heart valves are common procedures. They're done to improve the health and vigor of people with heart valve diseases. A replacement valve may be taken from another human heart (cadaver valve) or pig (porcine valve) or it can be a mechanical one.
Coronary angiogram - the coronary arteries can become clogged from a buildup of cholesterol, cells or other substances. A coronary angiogram is a special X-ray test. It’s done to find out if your coronary arteries are clogged, where and by how much. An angiogram can help your doctor see if you need treatment such as angioplasty, coronary artery bypass surgery or medical therapy.
Hysterectomy - Vaginal hysterectomy is a surgical procedure that removes the uterus through your vagina. Vaginal hysterectomy involves a shorter time in the hospital, lower cost and faster recovery than does the most common alternative, abdominal hysterectomy. However, if the uterus is enlarged, vaginal hysterectomy may not be possible.
Endocrine surgery - surgical treatment of the thyroid gland
Breast surgery - diagnosis, treatment and follow-up programs are carried out in all breast diseases.
Upper gastro-intestinal surgery - surgical treatments of benign and malignant diseases of esophagus, stomach, duodenum and intestines.
