Turkey is a popular destination for medical and cosmetic treatment, and Bursa has a large number of public and private hospitals. When treatment goes wrong, patients have legal remedies.
Malpractice or complication?
A complication is a known risk that can occur even when treatment meets medical standards. Malpractice occurs when the doctor or hospital fails to meet the required standard of care. The distinction is determined by expert reports, often from the Forensic Medicine Institute.
