Synevo Turkey

What Synevo Turkey does

Synevo Turkey, operating under the legal name İstanbul Laboratuvarları Ticaret A.Ş. (Istanbul Laboratories Trading Inc.), is the Turkish arm of the Synevo diagnostic laboratory network owned by Swedish-listed healthcare conglomerate Medicover. Established in Turkey in 2015 and headquartered in Istanbul's Şişli district, the company runs nine patient service branches across major Turkish cities (Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bursa, Antalya, Bodrum, Alanya, Adana, Fethiye) and benefits from the wider Synevo Network's 90 laboratory centers across 10 European countries, 5,500 specialist personnel, and approximately 120 million annual tests.

The lab provides clinical diagnostic services spanning routine biochemistry, hematology, immunology, microbiology, allergy panels (including the molecular ALEX platform), gut-health and microbiome testing, and genetic testing. Specialized offerings include NGS-based microbiota analysis and the LTT-Borrelia (Lymphocyte Transformation Test) for Lyme disease, reportedly achieving 98.7% specificity and 89.4% sensitivity. The lab holds ISO 15189 medical laboratory accreditation and operates an online result portal and e-commerce site for direct patient ordering, in addition to a Laboratory Information System (LIS) integrated with referring physicians.

Synevo Turkey monetizes through a hybrid go-to-market: (i) direct-to-consumer online test purchases via its e-commerce platform; (ii) walk-in branch visits; (iii) institutional contracts as an in-network provider with major Turkish insurers including MAPFRE Sigorta, Anadolu Sigorta, Allianz Sigorta, and senCard (zero or reduced co-payment arrangements); and (iv) healthcare-professional referrals routed through the LIS portal. Customer segments span insured retail patients, corporate wellness accounts, self-pay consumers purchasing preventive panels (allergy, wellness, gut health), and physician-ordered diagnostic testing.
