Is Derince Training and Research Hospital listed as authorised for international health tourism?
Yes — listed on the Ministry of Health register as of 2026-10-29 (document ST-0276). This site has read it on the register since 2026-09-17.

that is what an independent investigation is for.

What the register cannot tell you: whether the clinicians are skilled, whether a plan is
right for you, or what happens if something goes wrong. The licence is permission, not a quality mark.

Does clinimora.com recommend Derince Training and Research Hospital?
No. Clinimora does not recommend or rank clinics, and clinics cannot pay for ranking. This page shows what the Ministry publishes and the documents behind it.
Official register
The licence number, the documents and the fields below come from the
Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Health's health tourism register, last read on 2026-10-29. Social accounts,
photographs, equipment and the treatment list are entered by the clinic itself on that
same official portal.
How verification works: when we retrieve a document we record its SHA-256 fingerprint and sign a W3C Verifiable Credential
naming that fingerprint. Every night a sample of documents is fetched again from our storage, re-hashed and its signature re-checked.
This proves the copy has not changed since we retrieved it. It does not prove that the authority still considers the document in
force — that is the regulatory status above. Our method.
