MLP Care is Türkiye’s largest private hospital group in terms of the number of hospitals, bed capacity and geographic reach. With an extensive network across Türkiye and international locations in Baku, Azerbaijan, and Pristina, Kosovo, the Group delivers healthcare services across a broad geography.

Founded in 1993, MLP Care has built an integrated healthcare network combining clinical expertise, advanced medical technologies and multidisciplinary care.

Academic medicine, medical education and research form an important part of this approach. İstinye University is an integral part of the Group’s academic structure, alongside academic collaborations with Altınbaş University, Istanbul Aydın University and Bahçeşehir University. Together, these relationships strengthen the connection between clinical practice education and research while supporting the continuous professional development of healthcare professionals.

Patient and guest experience remains central to MLP Care’s healthcare model.

Continued investment in medical technologies, digital solutions and clinical expertise supports a patient journey built around accessibility, effective communication and continuity of care.

For international patients, care extends beyond treatment itself. Dedicated teams coordinate each stage of the patient journey, supporting patients, families and healthcare partners across different languages, cultures and healthcare systems.

Quality care, closer to everyone

Today, Medical Park operates 34 hospitals strategically located throughout Türkiye, helping make healthcare services accessible to patients across different regions of the country. Throughout its history, the brand has also been associated with a number of firsts in Türkiye’s private healthcare sector.

More than 30 years of healthcare experience now extends beyond Türkiye. MLP Care’s dedicated international team of approximately 450 professionals provides 24/7 assistance to patients from more than 190 countries, supporting them from initial coordination through treatment and follow-up.

“Today, our international approach is centred on building lasting connections across the global healthcare ecosystem.

Alongside providing advanced medical care to international patients, we develop sustainable relationships with healthcare authorities, international insurance companies, healthcare funds, institutions and medical communities. These relationships strengthen international cooperation and contribute to the exchange of medical knowledge, experience and expertise.

“Türkiye’s position as an international medical destination is supported by highly qualified medical professionals, modern healthcare infrastructure and access to advanced technologies. Its continued development will increasingly depend on stronger international integration, institutional partnerships and sustainable models of long-term cooperation.

“The Turkish government also plays an important role in regulating and facilitating international healthcare services. Our hospitals operate in accordance with the standards and regulations established by the Ministry of Health, and our facilities providing international patient services hold the required International Health Tourism Authorisation Certificates.

We also participate in government-led programmes and initiatives supporting Türkiye’s international healthcare activities.

“For international patients and payors, private healthcare can offer important advantages, including greater flexibility in scheduling, timely access to specialists, multilingual coordination and a streamlined patient journey. Efficient case management, transparent communication and continuity of care are particularly important when hospitals work with international insurers and healthcare funds, helping create a more effective experience for patients and payors alike.

“Our international patients reach us through different pathways. Some receive funding from national healthcare funds, Ministries of Health or other public institutions; others are referred by healthcare organisations in their home countries, covered by private health insurance or fund their treatment independently.

Regardless of the pathway, patients receive the same standard of medical care and coordination.

“Through our global network, we connect patients, institutions, insurers and healthcare partners worldwide. By building long-term partnerships, facilitating access to care and strengthening coordination across borders, we aim to contribute to the exchange of expertise and to Türkiye’s evolving role within the global healthcare landscape.”
