(Last Update: 11.01.2026) My adventures as a result of a sudden illness in July 2014 Emergency Health Response ve In the Emergency Department of a Hospital I shared it under topic headings. In this article, if you experience a possible health problem in Paris, we will provide you with a place where you can fully explain your problem and find a solution -relatively- more easily. Paris American HospitalI want to talk about.

After the serious health problems I experienced in June 2014, the doctor at the emergency room of the public hospital in Neuilly said that no findings were found as a result of the tests, but she recommended that I see a specialist to have my stomach examined. Now, after this stage of the work, my path is again Paris La Defense side, in Neuilly, Courbevoie ve Jatte IslandIt was inevitable that he would fall into the Paris American Hospital, which was right across the street.

Actually, I have been to this American Hospital before. I had an emergency room experience in the first days of settling in Paris, and at that time I did not yet have any health insurance. At that time, the doctor who treated me in the emergency room first made "checks" in many places regarding payment, then when he learned that I did not have health insurance, he scratched out many of those "checks" and made a huge gesture to make me pay the minimum fee. My sympathy for Paris American Hospital started that day :)

At the end of June 2014, severe heart pain turned into an endless stomach ache, it became forbidden to sleep day and night, and my quality of life began to decline. At this stage, one should ask his or her spouse or friend, "Do you know a good gastroenterologist?" It is very unpleasant that he cannot ask. After all, if it had been in Istanbul, we could have made inquiries and found a good specialist doctor we could trust, but when the incident took place in Paris, you naturally turn to the first "reliable" place you see.

Paris American Hospital is a place just like Istanbul. Of course it's a private hospital. Their patients/customers are above a certain class. If you see people wandering the corridors Duchess of Yorkshire, President of Zimbabwe, Rajah of India You may get the impression that you are walking side by side with people like you :)

As far as I know, there is not a private hospital on every corner in Paris like we have, and if there is, it is very few; The one has more of a clinical feel. The French state has extended universal health care to the entire population. Of course, there are problems, but ultimately you get good or bad service in terms of basic healthcare. But as I said, when you do not have anyone you know who can recommend a doctor for issues that require special expertise, it is inevitable for you to apply to a health institution that you think is "the best". Therefore, for me, the American Hospital in Paris is in the “best in class” category.

at the American Hospital in Paris English is a second or even first language It is spoken as. You can solve your problem both in English and Fransızca It is possible to tell. It works like a factory inside. Rows of corridors, tons of doctors in each corridor, providing services in thousands of different branches. Being able to speak both English and French with your doctor is a great luxury. Okay, I can speak English and French, but when it comes to illness, it is not that easy for me to express myself. Then, being able to jump between two languages ​​and communicate with the doctor as I wish is a great luxury. Well, even in Turkish, I am very precise when describing my illnesses. eccentric I make sentences, but doctors don't understand my problem, but that's a different topic :)

American Hospital of Paris - Hôpital Américain de Paris

When I went to the hospital and explained my complaint to my doctor, he immediately asked me to have an ultrasound. He also said I needed to have a fibroscopy. I had the ultrasound done right there; Everything was working smoothly. My doctor said that I could have fibroscopy done at the Paris American Hospital or at another clinic that he has an agreement with. When there was a significant difference between the price quote given by the Paris American Hospital and the price quote given by the clinic, we decided to have the fibroscopy done at the clinic. Maybe I should write something about that clinic, because it was a very special, very interesting place.

Coming to the diagnosis of my disease, as a result of fibroscopy, I was diagnosed with the beginning of an ulcer; Necessary drug treatment was given. In fact, this disease was very unfair for someone like me, who ate a balanced diet and stayed away from stress after settling in Paris :) But it turns out that we have a sensitive side, we were caught unprepared… Let's say it went away, fortunately…

You see, I can recommend the Paris American Hospital as an address you can easily apply to when you encounter any health problem in Paris. Of course, being insured is important for your budget.

The healthcare system here is so interesting that there is a constant exchange of documents, a constant correspondence; It takes a long time to understand how much of the money comes out of your pocket. Especially if you have made different health expenses, in total It becomes more difficult to understand how much the return is.

  1. Hello Mr. Ahmet, I have been following your articles with great pleasure and curiosity for a long time. Were you able to get a refund and if so, how much? Thanks a lot

    • Hello, first of all, thank you very much. To answer your question, the first time I went I was a tourist, I paid something around 150€ for the consultation out of my own pocket. Frankly, I didn't try to get it back from insurance. During my subsequent visits, I was registered with the French health system, so the refunds were always paid back to the account through the automatic system; Believe me, it is very difficult to follow. I think the government covered 70% of the expenses, but it is really difficult to calculate.
