Hello there. I'm Professor Murat Dizbay. I’m a faculty member at Gazi University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Infectious Diseases and Clinical Microbiology. I have been the director of the International Patient Office for a year.
First of all, health tourism has become a very important place in the world. There is a big market in health tourism. According to the figures, this market has a share of 560 billion dollars. Turkey is receiving $ 20 million share of this market. In recent years, the interest in health tourism has increased, there are very good hospitals, health centers and doctors in our country. In order to benefit from these opportunities, patients who will come from abroad can be given service and profit can be provided to our country. We would like to contribute to health tourism as Gazi University Faculty of Medicine. We have adequate technical facilities and information about health tourism.
I think that health tourism will make a great profit for our country and that everybody should do their best for health tourism. In addition, this contribution phenomenon is important to me. The question we have to ask ourselves every day is: “What kind of contribution can I make to myself, my family, my country, my state and even to the universe?” I can say that this question has been the biggest reason for me to take this job personally.
