The Founder
Behind the Mission
Gökhan Temiz founded OTEMED on the pillars of surgical excellence, medical transparency, and affordable access. With 15+ years of experience, we bridge the gap between patients in the US/UK and Turkey's elite medical centers.
Building Trust
Through Clinical Excellence
OTEMED was founded to solve the fragmentation in global healthcare. I observed that many international patients felt like numbers, not people. I built OTEMED to serve as a high-touch patient advocate, ensuring that every individual receives the same level of care, comfort, and clinical precision I would demand for my own family.
From our central hub in Istanbul, we partner exclusively with JCI-accredited hospitals. By combining board-certified surgical expertise with concierge service, we enable patients to save up to 70% on major procedures without sacrificing safety or outcomes compared to private care in the US or UK.
"Trust is not something you ask for—it is something you earn through rigorous clinical vetting, transparent pricing, and 24/7 dedicated patient support."
