About

TurkeyHealth.care

An independent editorial platform for healthcare, wellness, and recovery travel in Türkiye. Not a clinic. Not a marketplace. An edit.

A note from the founder

I'm Gizem Burteçin. I've spent two decades building platforms, communities and ecosystems — across e-commerce, marketplaces, coworking, and AI — including senior roles at Alibaba.com and Doğuş Holding.

The work I keep returning to started in 2013, when I founded Yaşa Devam at Doğuş — Türkiye's first platform focused on aging well. TurkeyHealth.care is the next concrete answer to a question I've been asking for over a decade: how we age, how we recover, and how international visitors can experience Türkiye's healthcare without being rushed or marketed at.

Glad you're here.

Honest about what we know. Calm about what takes time. Focused on longevity and holistic recovery as much as treatment.
