Anatolia has been home to numerous cultures throughout history. It has served as a hub of science and health. Having roots going back to 10,000 years ago, Anatolian medicine continued to improve until the Ottoman era.
Hittites acquired their knowledge on medicine from Mesopotamians and indigenous people of Anatolia, and benefited from the rich plant diversity in Anatolia. In that period of civilization, the duty of a physician was considered as a profession.
The most important physicians of ancient western Anatolia for the history of medicine are undoubtedly Hippocrates and Galen. Trained by his father who was also a physician, Hippocrates (460-370 BC) first worked in northern provinces of Anatolia before returning to Cos to continue working as a physician.
The first hospitals, asclepieia, as the most important structures of Anatolian medicine, also known as ancient temple medicine, were first built in Bergama (Pergamon), Efes (Ephesus), Yumurtalık (Aegeae), İzmit (Nicomedia), İznik (Nicaea) and Ereğli (Heraclea Pontica). Later, the Seljuks and Ottomans established hospitals (dar al-shifa) in many cities.
Other structures that would cater to basic healthcare needs of society were hot springs, medicinal springs and spas that enjoyed popularity in Anatolia since antiquity.
Foreign travelers wrote that in late 16th century, there were 119 hospitals, each with a capacity of 150-300 patients, in Istanbul and public physicians called "assigned physicians" worked at these hospitals.
Many famous physicians like Hippocrates of Cos (460-370 BC), Galen of Pergamon (131-200), Caius Calpurnius Asclepiades of Prusa (1st century AD), Rufus of Ephesus (1st century AD), Pedanius Dioscorides of Anazarbus (1st century AD), Soranus of Ephesus (2nd century AD), Aretaeus of Cappadocia (4th century AD), Hacı Paşa, Mahmud Şirvani (1375-1450), Şerafeddin Sabuncuoğlu (1385-1465), Şemseddini İtaki, Akşemseddin, Molla Gürani, and Mustafa Behçet Efendi (1774-1834) lived in Anatolia. The Ottoman healthcare system featured supervision mechanisms. Establishment of a medical school (Tıphane-i Amire) for educating physicians and surgeons for the Turkish army on March 14, 1827 is considered as an important milestone for our country as it represents the beginning of modern medical education and institutionalization of modern medical practices. Today, Turkey has a 200-year tradition of modern medical education going back to the establishment of the first medical faculty offering Western medical education, and the country has currently numerous healthcare facilities providing services with modern standards on par with countries with high level of healthcare services.
Qualified physicians auxiliary health staff are at your service. The standards by which complementary services are provided are also considerably high.
Since antiquity, people have traveled to Anatolia to recover their health. Hierapolis, currently Pamukkale in southwestern Turkey's Denizli province, was a frequent destination for those who would come from far and wide to seek remedy for their ills. As a land with a sunny climate, clean air and a history of golden ages of science, Turkey is today capable of offering virtually all types of medical treatments and surgical operations at international standards.
In addition, healthcare services available in Turkey are 40-60% cheaper and more successful compared to western countries. The number of citizens of other countries choosing Turkey as their healthcare destination increases every day. In 2021, Turkey received some 5 million foreign citizens seeking medical treatment.
