About clinic

NP Brain Hospital is considered the 1st private neuropsychiatric hospital in Turkey and the 2nd in Europe, which specializes in the treatment of brain diseases from the side of neurosurgery as well as psychiatry and neurology.

The hospital employs an outstanding neurosurgeon Dr. Mustafa Bozbuga, who successfully performs operations for the most complex brain tumors. The hospital has the most modern technological infrastructure. For example, during operations, neuronavigation is used, which allows to get the maximum view of the operating field. In particular, thanks to this, the best result of the operation is achieved.

In NP Brain Hospital, tumor removal operations have successfully performed for many patients of Experts Medical. Our patients are satisfied with the treatment results and are pleasantly surprised by the high quality of service and the sincere attitude of the staff.

In 2018, NP Brain Hospital received JCI accreditation and the title of the “1st accredited brain hospital in the world”. JCI (Joint Commission International) is one of the most prestigious American accreditations in the healthcare industry.

NP Brain Hospital was also awarded the first and only 1A Ultra Clean in Turkey for compliance with the special sterility conditions of the class A operating room in neurosurgery and intensive surgery departments.

The hospital cooperates with Uskudar University on a variety of scientific projects, which allows it to stay abreast of the most modern therapeutic approaches, as well as successfully apply them in the treatment of patients.

At NP, for the first time, the newest methods of treatment such as “treatment by measuring brain function”, “positive thinking medicine” were applied

The hospital is the only one in Istanbul that uses a pharmacogenetic approach (therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM)) in diagnostics and treatment.

NP Brain Hospital has become an innovator in Turkey in the implementation of neuromodulation procedures aimed at measuring brain function by means of its stimulation.

For foreign patients, it is possible to conduct online consultations in order to ask all the questions of interest to the surgeon before the operation, as well as telepsychiatry (online therapy) for patients who want to receive high-quality psychiatric therapy while staying at home.
