Medical tourism is popular in Turkey due to lower costs for procedures such as dental work. Photograph: Rui Vieira/PA WireA man who died last month during a dental procedure in Turkey brings to seven the number of Irish people who have died in the country over the last two years while availing of medical or cosmetic treatment.
It is understood that the man died while undergoing a dental procedure in Turkey on May 28th and his remains have since been repatriated to Ireland. The Irish Embassy in Ankara was notified of his death and the Department of Foreign Affairs is aware of the case. As medical tourism grows in popularity, particularly in Turkey due to lower costs, seven Irish people have now died over the past two years while they were undergoing dental and cosmetic procedures.
Sources in the Department of Foreign Affairs and the Health Service Executive are “extremely concerned” over the number of deaths that have occurred while Irish citizens are increasingly seeking treatment outside of the EU.
