Terms of Service

Last updated:

These terms apply when you use touristdoctorservices.com and when you request a service from Tourist Doctor Services by the website, WhatsApp or phone. By sending a request you accept them.

Important Medical Notice: For life-threatening emergencies in Turkey (chest pain, stroke, severe trauma, unconsciousness), always call 112 (National Emergency Ambulance) immediately free of charge. Tourist Doctor Services provides non-life-threatening urgent medical visits, nursing care, and private clinic/hospital coordination.

1. About the service

Tourist Doctor Services is operated by CNR Medicare · CNR World Health & Travel Assistance (TÜRSAB licence no. 9796, Binbirdirek, Babayani Sk. No:5, 34122 Fatih / İstanbul). We coordinate private medical services for visitors in Istanbul: hotel and home visits, nursing and IV therapy, laboratory tests, specialist appointments, online consultations and transfers to private clinics. Medical services are provided by licensed healthcare professionals and institutions.

2. Not an emergency service

We are not an ambulance or emergency service. In a life-threatening emergency — chest pain, signs of stroke, severe bleeding or injury, difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness — call 112 immediately. Calls to 112 are free across Türkiye.

3. Website information is not medical advice

Content on this website, including the symptom guide and FAQs, is general information that helps you choose a service. It is not a diagnosis or treatment recommendation. A diagnosis is made only by a physician after assessing you.

4. Requests, confirmation and arrival times

Submitting the wizard or sending a WhatsApp message is a request, not a confirmed booking. A booking is confirmed only when our coordinator confirms the service, price and estimated arrival time with you.

Arrival times are estimates based on the nearest available team and may change because of traffic, weather or other circumstances beyond our control. We will keep you informed of any delay.

5. Prices and payment

You receive a clear, fixed price before a team is dispatched, and the service starts only after you accept it. Additional tests, medication or treatment recommended during the visit are priced and agreed with you before they are provided. Payment can be made by card, Apple Pay or cash, and you receive an official invoice.

6. Travel insurance

On request we prepare a medical report with ICD-10 codes and an itemised invoice for your insurer. Whether and how much your insurer reimburses depends on your policy and the insurer's decision; we cannot guarantee reimbursement. Unless we agree direct billing with your insurer in writing, you pay us directly.

7. Changes and cancellations

Please tell us as early as possible if you need to change or cancel a confirmed request. Any cancellation conditions are communicated together with your quote, before you confirm the service.

8. Prescriptions and medication

Medication is prescribed only when a physician considers it medically appropriate after assessing you. We do not sell or supply prescription medicines — including antibiotics — without a medical assessment, and we do not prescribe on request.

9. Your responsibilities

Please give accurate and complete information about your condition, medical history, allergies and current medication, make sure the team can access your room safely, and follow the medical advice you receive. Our staff may decline or stop a service in case of abusive or unsafe behaviour.

10. Liability

Healthcare professionals are responsible for their medical acts under the professional rules and legislation that apply to them. We are responsible for our coordination services within the limits of the law. Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any right you have under mandatory consumer protection law.

11. Website content

Texts, graphics and the design of touristdoctorservices.com are protected. You may not copy or reuse them commercially without our written permission.

12. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye. Istanbul courts and enforcement offices have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, you may also apply to the consumer arbitration committees or consumer courts, and you keep the mandatory protections of the country where you live.
