Batıgöz Sağlık Grubu

What Batıgöz Sağlık Grubu does

Batıgöz Sağlık Grubu is a private Turkish multi-specialty healthcare group founded in 2004 in Çankaya, İzmir, with its registered legal entity structured as an anonim şirketi (joint-stock company) under Turkish law. The group originated as a dedicated ophthalmology provider and has progressively expanded its clinical footprint to 12 medical centers: 7 within Turkey (İzmir, İstanbul, Manisa, Hatay, Batman) and 5 international locations (Sumqayıt and Baku in Azerbaijan, Bucharest, Kyiv, Rotterdam, and Munich). Its core service portfolio spans refractive surgery (ReLEx SMILE PRO, Excimer, LASIK/PRK), cataract, glaucoma, corneal crosslinking, retinal surgery, pediatric ophthalmology, and the FDA-approved Valeda laser for dry-type macular degeneration. In 2018, the Balçova Cerrahi Tıp Merkezi added 17 medical specialties, repositioning the group as a multi-disciplinary provider covering internal medicine, cardiology, dermatology, orthopedics, gastroenterology, urology, neurology, psychiatry, ENT, general surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, radiology, emergency, and nutrition.

Underlying technology combines clinical laser and surgical infrastructure with an integrated health IT backbone (SBYS for patient records, LBYS for laboratory information, PACS for imaging) operating under ISO 27001-aligned security and KVKK personal data protection compliance. The group holds TS EN ISO 9001, TS ISO 45001, TS ISO 10002, and TS EN ISO 14001 certifications and operates under Turkish Ministry of Health regulation.

The revenue model is service-based across four streams: per-encounter medical consultations and diagnostics, surgical and procedural treatments, reimbursement through SGK and private health insurance contracts (Anlaşmalı Kurumlar), and bundled international health tourism services with multilingual coordination. The group is led by Chairman Op. Dr. Mehmet Söyler (founder) and Vice Chairman Zeynep Söyler; it is privately held with no disclosed parent, PE/VC backing, or public listing.
