The American Hospital was founded in 1920 as Turkey's first non-profit private hospital.
The hospital's first nursing school, which opened at the same time, became an integral element of the hospital.
On August 20, 1920, the American Hospital opened its doors to patients in a triplex timber home on Ar?kap Avenue in ancient Istanbul, with 45 beds and three operating rooms.
It afterwards relocated to its current, larger home in Ni?anta?.
Presently American Hospital has taken the position to be the administrator of a hospital with 278 patient rooms, 58 intensive care rooms, 62 intensive care beds, and 12 operating rooms.
Every year, we serve over 220,000 patients and perform over 10,000 surgeries.
With its prosperous history and excellent patient care, the American Hospital is a leader in the Turkish health sector.
The MedAmerican Ambulatory Care Center, the Koç University Hospital, the Bodrum American Hospital, and the American Hospital, as well as the connected Vehbi Koç Foundation Healthcare Institutions, are a center of excellence, expertise, and innovation.
After a century, American Hospital affiliated with the Vehbi Koç Foundation continues to meet the premier potential in the field of healthcare by combining progressive technology assets and innovations with the combined knowledge and proficiency gleaned from a century of prosperous history to deliver quality-oriented services.
With its cardiology certification from the "European Association of Echocardiography" and medical pathways and algorithms that satisfy the requirements of North American medicine, the hospital continues to meet all of the twenty-first century's most ambitious predicted healthcare standards.

The "Public Favorite" in the "Health" category of the Golden Spider Awards, which honors successful web, digital marketing, and mobile technology projects, was American Hospital, which earned the most public votes.
The 18th Golden Spider Awards awarded American Hospital first place for its user-friendly and mobile-compatible website.
