Healthcare Beyond Borders with Comfort, Safety, and Expertise
International patient transfer is no longer just about transportation; it's a journey of life. At Turkish Medical Service, we ensure the safe transfer of patients with special conditions on scheduled flights, either on a stretcher or in Business Class comfort, accompanied by a professional medical escort.

🛏️ 1. Stretcher Transfer Service
✈️ What Does It Mean?
Stretcher transfer is a system that allows patients to travel in a lying position inside the aircraft, accompanied by special medical support and equipment. Some seats on the plane are removed to accommodate a professional stretcher. The patient remains under medical observation from takeoff to landing.
✅ When Is It Suitable?
This service is ideal for:
Patients unsuitable for long flights after surgery
Those for whom a lying position is mandatory
Cases requiring transfer after a heart attack, stroke, or trauma
Patients with stable critical health conditions
🧰 Medical Equipment Provided
We provide a comprehensive range of medical equipment, including:
Medical stretcher systems
Vital sign monitors
Oxygen tanks and respiratory support
Emergency medication kits and infusion systems
Accompanying service by an expert paramedic/doctor

👨⚕️ 2. Medical Escort Service in Business Class
For some patients, a full stretcher system might not be necessary. We offer a medical escort service in Business Class comfort for patients who can travel in a sitting position but still require medical support.
