Giving life a second chance with science, skill, and humanity.
Our Organ Transplant Center represents the highest level of surgical and medical complexity we undertake, and the highest level of commitment we make to our patients. Transplantation is not simply a procedure; it is a life-altering intervention that demands clinical excellence, institutional depth, and an unwavering focus on the human being at its center.
Our Transplant Programme
Our center performs kidney and liver transplantation from living donors operating within the full legal and ethical framework established by Turkish health authorities.
Each transplant is the result of a meticulous evaluation, preparation, and coordination process involving some of the most experienced transplant specialists in the country.
A Fully Integrated Multidisciplinary Team
Transplantation is never the work of a single specialty. Our transplant team brings together transplant surgeons, nephrologists, hepatologists, immunologists, infectious disease specialists, intensivists, anaesthesiologists, transplant coordinators, and psychosocial support professionals, all working as a unified clinical unit for each patient.
Pre-transplant evaluation, surgical execution, and post-transplant follow-up are all managed within the same integrated framework.
Pre-Transplant Evaluation and Waitlist Management
Every transplant candidate undergoes a comprehensive and structured pre-transplant assessment, covering medical, surgical, immunological, psychological, and social dimensions.
Our team works closely with patients and families throughout the waiting period, maintaining clinical readiness and managing the underlying conditions that precede transplantation. Donor evaluation is performed with equal rigour, ensuring compatibility and safety at every stage.
Post-Transplant Care and Long-Term Follow-Up
The transplant procedure marks the beginning, not the end, of our clinical commitment.
Our post-transplant programme provides structured immunosuppression management, rejection surveillance, infection monitoring, and long-term organ function assessment. Patients are supported by a dedicated follow-up team that remains accessible and responsive throughout recovery and beyond.
We have extensive experience in coordinating transplant care for international patients, managing the clinical, administrative, and logistical aspects of cross-border transplantation with transparency and professionalism.
From initial evaluation through surgery, recovery, and remote follow-up, our international patient coordination team ensures a seamless experience at every stage.
Why Güven?
An organ transplant center is defined not only by its surgical capability, but also by the institutional ecosystem that supports it, the ICU, laboratory, imaging infrastructure, specialist network, and above all, the people.
With over 50 years of clinical heritage and a fully integrated hospital system, we offer transplant patients something rare: a center where complexity is met with confidence, and where every patient is treated as the highest priority.
