Found in the İslahiye district of Gaziantep, residents flock to the hospital, which is kitted out with a number of specialised departments for emergencies, surgical operations, intensive care, dental care, CT, and x-ray, alongside an outpatient clinic, laboratory and pharmacy.

The 40,000-square-metre medical facility includes inpatient wards with 50 beds and four ICU beds. The hospital is also staffed by 15 specialist doctors as well as 60 nurses and technical assistants.
