Acibadem Kartal Hospital is the group’s hospital for the fast-growing southern corridor of Istanbul’s Anatolian side — Kartal, Pendik, Maltepe and the districts around Sabiha Gökçen Airport: a modern full-service campus of 30,000 m² with 127 beds, 8 operating theatres and 14 intensive-care beds, built with 3-Tesla MRI and a neonatal intensive care unit from the start. Its role is honest and local-first: group-standard emergency care, surgery, women’s and newborn medicine and everyday specialist clinics for a corridor of millions — with a cardiovascular surgery lead the unit guides name, and the airport next door making it the group’s natural first door for patients landing at Sabiha Gökçen. This guide covers the campus as it is, with the live numbers, rooms and visiting rules in their own dedicated sections of this page. ## What this building is organised around Kartal was built where Istanbul is growing: the southern Anatolian corridor whose population and skyline have doubled within living memory, and whose residents deserved a group-standard hospital without crossing the city. The building’s own signals say what it is for: a 3-Tesla MRI installation — diagnostic imaging at flagship grade — and a neonatal intensive care unit, the two investments a hospital makes when it intends to take diagnosis and birth seriously; operating theatres sized for real surgery including the cardiovascular work its named lead performs; and an emergency service placed minutes from one of Europe’s busiest airports. It is a corridor hospital in the best sense — and this page will route to the flagships honestly whenever a case outgrows it. ## Quality and safety — the honest frame Acibadem Kartal Hospital runs on the Acıbadem group’s single quality system — audited surgical checklists, medication-safety routines, infection control and credentialing — with diagnostics through the group’s ISO-accredited laboratory network. Five Acıbadem hospitals in Türkiye hold JCI accreditation (Maslak, Altunizade, Atakent, Kent and Adana); Kartal runs on the same protocols those audits examine, stated plainly here rather than borrowed as a badge. Practically: the same records system readable at every campus, the same tumour-board method for cancer questions, and the same international patient standards as the flagships. ## Cardiovascular surgery — the campus’s named lead The [cardiovascular surgery unit’s](https://acibademtr.dgsdemo.com/medical-units/cardiovascular-surgery/) Kartal professor is among the eight surgeons that unit’s guide fronts — bypass, valve and vascular surgery performed on this campus with the guide’s honesty in force: the operation proposed only after the heart-team conversation with [cardiology](https://acibademtr.dgsdemo.com/medical-units/cardiology-department/), whose catheter-based alternatives are weighed openly, and with intensive care behind every case the building accepts. Complex cases that belong at flagship scale — congenital hearts at Atakent above all — are routed there and said so. ## Women’s health and the newborn unit The neonatal intensive care unit is Kartal’s quiet centrepiece: it is what lets [obstetrics](https://acibademtr.dgsdemo.com/medical-units/gynecology-and-obstetrics/) accept real-world births honestly, because a newborn needing support is cared for on site rather than transferred in an ambulance. Around it sit full gynaecology — the investigation-first medicine that unit’s guide describes — and [paediatrics](https://acibademtr.dgsdemo.com/medical-units/pediatrics/) for the corridor’s families; for the high-risk pregnancies the [perinatology guide](https://acibademtr.dgsdemo.com/medical-units/perinatology/) covers, the routing honesty applies: the group’s perinatology professors are concentrated at the flagships, and the coordinators place complex cases there early rather than heroically late. ## 3-Tesla imaging and everyday diagnostics A 3-Tesla MRI in a corridor hospital is a statement: diagnosis here runs at flagship grade, with CT, ultrasound and the group’s ISO-accredited laboratories behind it, and [radiology’s](https://acibademtr.dgsdemo.com/medical-units/radiology/) standing rule in force — your existing scans are re-read rather than repeated by default, and images taken here are readable at every Acıbadem campus. For the corridor’s residents this is the campus’s daily value: the scan, the answer and the specialist in one building, minutes from home. ## Everyday specialist medicine for the corridor The clinics carry what daily life consults: [internal medicine](https://acibademtr.dgsdemo.com/medical-units/internal-medicine/) for the whole-picture questions its guide describes, cardiology checks, general surgery’s hernia-gallbladder-thyroid range, urology, orthopedics, ENT, dermatology, ophthalmology and the rest — each connected upward to its unit guide and its flagship subspecialists when a finding needs them. The small-hospital-in-a-big-group advantage is the same one Taksim’s page describes on the European side: your file moves inside the group, and the step up to a flagship is a coordinated transfer, not a fresh start. ## Technology, honestly framed Kartal’s installation matches its role — 3-Tesla imaging, eight theatres, neonatal and adult intensive care, the group’s laboratory network — and the platform’s standing rule needs stating in one direction: when your case needs a heavy installation, it lives at a flagship (MR-Linac at Maslak, Gamma Knife and Tomotherapy at Altunizade, PET staging and the dense cancer floors at the flagship campuses), and the coordinators route you there with the reason stated. A hospital honest about what it does not house is exactly as trustworthy as its equipment list. ## International patients — the airport-corridor role Kartal’s international story is geography. For patients landing at Sabiha Gökçen for treatment anywhere in the group, this is the nearest Acıbadem campus — which makes it the natural first door when a plan starts with an examination, bloods and imaging before a flagship step, and the practical base when treatment at Ataşehir or Altunizade allows staying nearer the airport. For unplanned needs — travellers and airport-corridor visitors meeting illness or injury — the emergency service works around the clock with interpreter support (English, Arabic, Russian, German and French routinely), travel-insurer paperwork handled, and discharge notes written for the doctor at home. For planned care the group’s fixed process applies unchanged: records first, a written plan and honest estimate, coordinated scheduling, and departure with a summary, your data and a follow-up plan addressed to whoever continues your care. ## Getting here The campus sits in Kartal on the Anatolian side’s southern shore, on the metro and Marmaray corridor, with Sabiha Gökçen Airport a short transfer away — the shortest airport-to-Acıbadem run in the group — and the E-5 artery connecting the whole corridor. Hotels and serviced apartments serve the district practically rather than luxuriously, honest information for anyone planning a companion stay; for flagship-level programmes, accommodation guidance shifts to the treatment campus’s neighbourhood, arranged by the international office either way. ## How to decide whether Kartal is your hospital Choose Kartal when it is the near answer: you live in or are staying along the southern Anatolian corridor, you landed at Sabiha Gökçen and your plan starts with assessment, your birth belongs to a hospital with a neonatal unit behind it, or your case fits the surgery this building genuinely supports — including cardiovascular surgery under its named professor. Choose a flagship when your case is a programme: dense cancer care, radiosurgery, metabolic surgery, congenital hearts, genetics — at Maslak, Altunizade, Ataşehir and Atakent — and expect the routing to be said to you unprompted. That two-sentence honesty is this page’s entire sales pitch. ## Doctors at this facility - [Assoc. Prof. A.
