Surp Pırgiç Armenian Hospital was founded under the leadership of Kazaz Artin Amira Bezciyan, with the initiatives and support of leading members of the community.
Founded in 1832 with the edict of Ottoman Sultan Mahmut II, Hospital began providing services on 31 May 1834 once construction and outfitting works were completed.
Despite of the financial and organizational challenges it faced throughout the history, our Hospital has managed to continue its services uninterruptedly till today. Credibility and social responsibility have been the two main principles which guided and steered the works of our Hospital throughout this period.
Our Hospital, which has been meticulously adhering to its founding goals throughout its history approaching two centuries, has always committed to the understanding of respect for people and service, and takes great care to protect ethical values, and has also kept abreast of the technological developments. Today, Surp Pırgiç is a modern hospital that conserves its historical texture, applies the most modern diagnosis and treatment methods in medicine, respects the environment and adheres to an innovative service approach.
Surp Pırgiç is a hospital that succeeds both in preserving its historical identity and adapting itself to the technological innovations that develop at an unprecedented pace. One of its distinguishing features is to offer advanced medical service with an equally developed sense of social responsibility. Therefore, the main goal of our hospital is to provide modern health services with the most affordable conditions.
Hospital employees, who are integrated with their institutions and have a happy working environment, are the main assurance of this goal.
With this understanding, our hospital is ready to embrace anyone whoever in need 24 hours a day, 365 days a year,
Respectfully yours
