The 70’s are remembered as a time period during which Turkish citizens used to travel abroad for sophisticated treatments like open heart surgeries and cancer treatments.<\/p>\n

With a group of his doctor friends who shared the same vision and determination, Prof. Cem’i Demiro\u011flu has founded Haseki Cardiology Institute at Cerrahpa\u015fa Medical Faculty in 1974. Over the years, this institute provided important services to Turkey and shaped the beginning of a successful journey.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Florence Nightingale Hospital was established in 1989 as a small and ambitious healthcare institution with 50 beds and an annual capacity of 250 open heart surgeries. By courtesy of the ever increasing support, confidence and successful work, Florence Nightingale expanded its facilities conforming to international standards and measures to 302 beds, in which more than 2000 open heart surgeries could annually be performed.<\/p>\n

Avrupa Florence Nightingale Hospital, the second hospital of Group Florence Nightingale, became one of the major healthcare institutions of Turkey, actively serving across all medical branches including pediatrics, dental and maxillofacial surgery, gynecology and ophthalmology.<\/p>\n

Gayrettepe Florence Nightingale Hospital and its Comprehensive Cancer Center were opened in 1997 by a joint venture with American partners. The infrastructure also allows for the ever so important joint boards and conferences with international counterparts via telemedicine.<\/p>\n

In line with successful results and experience gained over the passing years, Florence Nightingale established a university in 1998 which was named as Istanbul Bilim University in 2006. It is the first thematic healthcare university in Turkey. It currently enrolls over 3000 students.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
