Medical Travel
Godent Clinic offers transfer and accommodation packages for the international patients so that along with their treatment, they can have an all round safe and comfortable experience from their landing in Istanbul until their departure. These packages include the VIP transfer from the airport to the contracted hotel where patients stay for the duration of their treatment process and the VIP transfer from the hotel back to the airport for the return flight.
Airport Transfer
Our patients are met by our staff at the airport upon their arrival and driven to the hotel with VIP minivan vehicles. Upon departure, our patients are taken from the hotel and dropped off at the airport.
Accommodation
As Godent Clinic, our priority in choosing the accommodation solution for our patients is its proximity to our clinic. That is why we work with Veyron Hotel which is only 40 metres distant. Our patients do not therefore need to use any transport from the hotel to the clinic as we are only a few steps away.
