A physician known for his social media posts drew attention to the speed of healthcare services in Türkiye, recounting how a patient who applied to the emergency room was taken to angioplasty in a short time.
Doctor Bilal Çetin praised the functioning of Türkiye's healthcare system, stating that a citizen who applied to the emergency room during his shift was taken to angioplasty just four minutes after entering the door.
Critical Case Process in the Emergency Room
Doctor Bilal Çetin shared on his social media account the condition of an ordinary citizen who came to the hospital with complaints of chest pain during his shift. As soon as the patient entered the emergency room, an ECG was performed and it was determined that he was having a heart attack.
Intervention Taking Place Within Seconds
Stating that the cardiology specialist was contacted rapidly, Çetin emphasized that the total time elapsed from the patient stepping into the hospital until being taken to angioplasty took only four minutes. He expressed that this duration points to a speed rarely seen internationally.
Speed and Accessibility of the Healthcare System
Defending that healthcare services in Türkiye are fast, of high quality, and economical, Dr. Çetin stated that the high accessibility opportunity brought by the system is sometimes abused in a way that creates density.
