When neurological symptoms start to appear: persistent headaches, tingling sensations, balance issues, or memory problems, it becomes crucial to understand what's causing them. Neurology requires accuracy, quick action, and access to advanced diagnostic tools, as many conditions can progress quietly before becoming more serious.

Over the past years, Turkey has emerged as a strong hub for neurological care. Hospitals are equipped with state-of-the-art MRI systems, advanced EEG units, and multidisciplinary teams capable of delivering a complete evaluation in a short timeframe. This setup allows patients to receive fast, reliable answers, something essential when symptoms are evolving.

During what can be an overwhelming journey, Turquie Santé plays a key role by connecting patients with top-tier neurology specialists and guiding them toward the most appropriate treatment plan.

Among our doctors for your Neurology

Why should you see a neurologist?

Neurological symptoms aren't always easy to identify. What starts as a mild or occasional discomfort can actually be an early sign of an underlying issue, especially if the symptoms keep returning, last longer than expected, or progressively worsen.

When do your symptoms point to a neurological cause?

People usually see a neurologist when they start noticing symptoms such as:

While these signs don't necessarily indicate a serious problem, a comprehensive neurological assessment is recommended to uncover the cause.

When should you see a neurologist immediately?

Certain neurological symptoms require prompt medical attention:

These signs may indicate a stroke, bleeding in the brain, or another urgent neurological condition where timely evaluation is crucial.

Why consult a neurologist for complex symptoms?

When it comes to complex or persistent neurological symptoms, seeing a neurologist can make all the difference. These specialists are trained to:

Even in cases where symptoms are unclear or overlap with other conditions, a neurologist is often the best professional to identify the root cause.

If you're seeking guidance or a thorough evaluation, our experienced neurologists partnered with Turquie Santé can help ensure you get the expertise and care you need.

Top neurology centers in Turkey: Comprehensive and fast care

Neurology demands cutting-edge technology and continuously updated expertise. In Turkey, several hospitals have built their neurology services around these high standards, providing thorough and timely evaluations for every patient.

Dedicated units for each type of condition

Leading Turkish centers organize their neurology services into specialized units, such as:

This structure enables neurologists, radiologists, neurosurgeons, and rehabilitation specialists to collaborate closely, ensuring coordinated and effective care.

These advanced tools help specialists make accurate diagnoses, even when symptoms are subtle or unusual, ensuring that patients receive timely and reliable care.

Streamlined care and support for international patients

Specialized neurology centers in Turkey not only offer quick access to essential diagnostic tests such as MRI, EEG, and EMG but also provide structured support for international patients.

Dedicated coordination services help simplify the process, including:

This combination ensures patients receive timely, accurate, and well-organized care from start to finish.

To find out which neurology centers are best suited to your needs, you can share your medical information for personalized guidance.

Neurological Treatments Offered in Turkey

Neurology encompasses a wide variety of conditions, and the best treatment depends on the underlying cause. In Turkey, specialized centers take a step-by-step approach, beginning with tailored medical therapies and advancing to more complex interventions when needed.

Tailored Medication Treatments

Neurologists in Istanbul follow the latest treatment protocols to provide personalized medication plans for a variety of conditions, ensuring each patient receives care suited to their specific needs:

These medication plans are carefully adjusted based on imaging results, symptom patterns, and how the condition progresses, allowing patients to receive precise and effective treatment over time.

Disease-modifying and biological therapies

These treatments are often used for inflammatory conditions like MS and aim to:

Patients at specialized centers in Turkey benefit from the latest disease-modifying and biological therapies, carefully tailored to manage symptoms, stabilize the condition, and improve daily quality of life.

Neuromodulation and deep-brain stimulation (DBS)

For certain cases of Parkinson's disease or medication-resistant tremors, deep brain stimulation may be considered. This procedure:

The decision is made after a clinical evaluation, neuropsychological assessment, and detailed imaging analysis.

Epilepsy surgery

Surgery may be considered for patients whose seizures persist despite medical treatment. The process includes:

The goal is to remove the seizure-causing area while preserving essential brain functions.

Management of brain tumors

Care is provided in collaboration with neurosurgery and oncology teams. Treatments may include:

Each case is discussed in multidisciplinary meetings to determine the most suitable treatment strategy.

Specialized neurological rehabilitation

After a stroke, traumatic brain injury, or in neurodegenerative diseases, rehabilitation helps to:

Centers have specialized physiotherapists, speech therapists, and occupational therapists.

If you want to learn about the treatment options best suited to your diagnosis or if you don't yet have one you can share your medical records to receive personalized guidance.

How a neurological evaluation works in Turkey

Obtaining an accurate neurological diagnosis requires several often complementary steps. Specialized centers in Istanbul follow a structured protocol to ensure speed, precision, and patient comfort, while also facilitating follow-up for international patients.

Sharing your medical records

Before your visit, it is recommended to send all available tests and reports, including blood work, MRI scans, EEG results, and summaries from previous consultations. This helps direct you to the neurologist best suited to your needs, prepare any necessary examinations in advance, and reduce waiting time once you arrive.

Initial consultation with the neurologist

During the first consultation, the neurologist reviews your medical history, evaluates your symptoms, and decides which additional tests are needed. This appointment is often accompanied by a neuropsychological evaluation or a more in-depth clinical examination, depending on your individual situation.

Performing the examinations

Depending on your symptoms and the suspected condition, you may undergo brain or spinal MRI, multidetector CT scans, EEG or video-EEG, EMG or evoked potentials, and neuropsychological testing. These tests are typically scheduled to minimize movement between departments and to ensure results are available quickly.

Analysis and treatment plan

Once all examinations are completed, the neurologist interprets the results and determines the most appropriate treatment (medication, surgery, or rehabilitation). For international patients, a follow-up plan can also be arranged remotely if necessary.

Post-evaluation follow-up

Some neurological conditions require regular monitoring. With a structured protocol, reports are sent to your referring physician, remote consultations can be scheduled, and coordination between local and international teams is ensured.

If you would like to learn how a complete neurological evaluation would proceed and which tests are prioritized for your symptoms, you can share your medical records now to receive personalized guidance.
