Rehabilitation in Turkey for UK Patients

A clear guide for UK and London-based families: how Next New Steps coordinates doctor-led stroke and neuro-rehabilitation in Istanbul — from online pre-assessment to travel, treatment and remote follow-up.

For patients and families across the UK, arranging rehabilitation abroad can feel daunting. We make it structured, transparent and fully supported — every step is coordinated by our international patient team, in English.

Why UK families contact Next New Steps

Many families come to us facing long waiting times and wanting more intensive, structured rehabilitation than they can access quickly at home. We offer a doctor-led alternative — with clear information about what is and isn’t possible.

The online pre-assessment process

It starts with a free online pre-assessment. You share your medical history and current condition, our doctors review the case, and we tell you honestly whether a programme is likely to be suitable — before you commit to anything.

Medical document checklist

To assess your case we typically need:

  • A recent medical summary or discharge report
  • Relevant scans or imaging reports
  • A current list of medications
  • A brief description of current mobility and goals

Travel & accommodation coordination

Once a plan is agreed, our team helps coordinate travel and accommodation for the patient and any accompanying family, and explains what to expect on arrival in Istanbul.

What happens in Istanbul

You’ll receive intensive, doctor-supervised rehabilitation in a purpose-built environment, following your personalised plan. Your family is kept informed throughout.

Returning to the UK & remote follow-up

Before you leave, you receive a written rehabilitation plan to continue at home, and we provide remote follow-up so your progress continues safely with your local team.

Suitability depends on a medical assessment. This page is for information only and is not medical advice. This service is not for medical emergencies.
