About İzmir Tepecik Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi

İzmir Tepecik Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi (Tepecik Training and Research Hospital) is one of the largest public hospitals in central İzmir, on Gaziler Caddesi in the Yenişehir area of Konak. The hospital's own history page says it opened on 6 October 1971 as a 500-bed hospital of the Social Insurance Institution (SSK) on a 10,000 square metre site, and that a 200-bed children's hospital followed in 1972. It was transferred to the Ministry of Health on 5 February 2005, and under a protocol with the University of Health Sciences (Sağlık Bilimleri Üniversitesi) it gained university hospital status in 2016. Today the hospital reports 910 registered beds in about 100,000 square metres of floor space. Alongside the main building it runs additional service buildings, including the Konak building that was formerly the Ekrem Hayri Üstündağ women's and maternity hospital, an outpatient clinic in Çamdibi and an annexe in Bornova. Its clinics include adult and paediatric emergency medicine, children's diseases with a 220-bed paediatric wing, and obstetrics and gynaecology. As a training and research hospital it also trains specialist doctors. Check the hospital's website for current departments, appointments and directions.
