About Amerikan Hastanesi

Amerikan Hastanesi is a fully equipped health center that provides modern healthcare services at world standards to patients in Turkey and surrounding countries. Founded in 1920 by Admiral Mark L. Bristol, the hospital is the first private hospital in Turkey established on a non-profit basis. The Admiral Bristol Nursing School, established at the same time as the hospital, became an integral and indispensable part of the hospital as Turkey's first nursing school. In 1995, the hospital and nursing school were transferred to the Vehbi Koç Foundation by a board resolution of its first owner in New York, American Hospital of Istanbul Inc.
