Istanbul, Turkey – August 24, 2026 Rememore, the international aesthetics brand of Memorial Healthcare Group, has published a care coordination and follow-up framework for U.S. patients who travel to Turkey for plastic surgery, hair transplantation, or dental care at participating Memorial hospitals.
Rememore’s coordination services include:
- Collecting patient records for clinical review
- Coordinating physician selection and scheduling
- Managing multilingual communication
- Providing written service and fee summaries
- Coordinating record access with patient authorization
- Maintaining scheduled follow-up contact
Medical assessments, treatment recommendations, informed consent, procedures, and the management of clinical concerns remain with the treating physicians and hospitals; a physician decides whether a procedure is appropriate for each patient.
“Patients coming to Turkey from the United States for medical treatment can receive safe, high-standard healthcare when they choose the right healthcare institution and experienced medical team. Experienced healthcare organizations such as Rememore and Memorial provide international patients with a planned and safe healthcare journey, from pre-treatment planning through follow-up care,” said Assoc. Prof. Dr. Can İlker Demir.The framework sets out who is responsible for what at each stage, from the first inquiry to scheduled follow-up after the patient returns home.
According to USHAŞ, Turkey’s public health tourism agency, more than 1.5 million international patients received care in Turkey in 2024, generating around $3 billion in health tourism revenue. Lower costs and established medical infrastructure draw American patients, but physician experience, safety standards, hospital quality, and follow-up arrangements matter more than price alone.
Follow-Up Planning
Rememore recommends that each patient leave Turkey with a written follow-up plan. The plan should identify:
- Contact details for the treating hospital
- Expected recovery milestones
- Warning signs that require medical attention
- Follow-up dates and communication methods
- How to share medical records with a U.S. physician
- How to report concerns after returning home
Procedures coordinated through Rememore include FUE and DHI hair transplantation, rhinoplasty, body contouring, and restorative or cosmetic dental treatment. Availability depends on physician review; some care plans require separate stages.
Details to Obtain Before Travel
Rememore advises patients to request the following in writing before booking travel:
- The treating physician’s qualifications, specialty, and experience
- The hospital’s name and location
- The care plan, alternatives, and material risks
- The recovery period and follow-up schedule
- How to contact the clinical team after the procedure
- An itemized estimate of included and excluded services
- How to request and transfer medical records
Written coordination materials reflect arrangements at the time they are issued. Final clinical decisions remain with the treating physician.
