In Istanbul since 2006

We bring the procedure along with the product

We bring the products of manufacturers from seven countries into Turkish hospitals. Registration, workshops and supply stay with our own team, and we are in the procedure room for the first cases.

Our Story From one desk to the procedure room When a physician does the first case with a new device, the device is registered, the stock is in place and our team is in the room. We have been preparing that day since 2006. We started at one desk. Read our story

Registration

How do you register a product in Türkiye?

Our own team runs the ÜTS registration, the SUT matching, the DMO catalogue entry and the MDR documentation, and we act as the importer. Turkish labelling, the instructions for use and the applications to the authority are ours as well.

Our Story 05

Workshop

How do physicians come to know a product?

Physician to physician: we host the workshop, the live case and the congress session, and the physician who has done the cases teaches. More than 3,000 physicians have taken part in our programmes since 2006.

Education and events

First case

What happens at the first case?

Our clinical team, nurse included, is in the procedure room beside the physician, and the manufacturer's specialist joins where the procedure asks for it. The unit does not do its first case alone.

Türkiye

How is it supplied?

Stock is held in Istanbul and the order ships from there or from the regional dealer; our sales team and 32 regional dealers reach public and private hospitals across Türkiye. The product is represented in the DMO catalogue and in hospital tenders, and every lot is traceable.

Where the region learns your technique

We want Türkiye, and Istanbul above all, to be where the region's physicians learn a new technique from colleagues who perform it.

The aim

A short flight for the region

Istanbul is a short flight from much of the region. We want its physicians to come here to learn a technique and meet colleagues who already use your device.

The road

Your device in their hands

At our hands-on workshops the physician holds the device, beside a colleague who performs the procedure and your specialist, whom we bring to Istanbul.

Where we are

Now we bring in the region

Our halls and programmes are in place. Bringing more physicians from across the region into these seats is the work ahead.

We plan every new programme around this aim: a practising physician at the lectern, and the region's physicians in the seats.

Quality and Compliance

Our quality management system is certified to ISO 13485:2016. Its scope covers:

  • Goods receipt
  • Storage conditions
  • Lot traceability
  • Distribution
  • Post-market support

What comes back to you

  • Field feedback

    What the physician says in the room is passed on to you.

  • Every quarter

    You receive a quarterly report.

  • On a complaint

    A complaint opens a case with your quality team and comes back with the lot analysis.

For hospitals

When something goes wrong

  1. 1We trace the lot back
  2. 2We open a case with the manufacturer
  3. 3We come back to you with the lot analysis

Compliance

Our interactions with physicians follow the Turkish regulation on the sale, advertising and promotion of medical devices and the principles of the MedTech Europe Code. Our regional dealers work under written agreements and are trained by us.
