Çekirge State Hospital in Bursa begins relocation process

Çekirge State Hospital in Bursa, a medical institution with a 56-year history, has concluded patient admissions at its current building. Following the final day of service on Friday, October 23, 2026, the hospital will begin relocating its operations.

Health services are expected to continue at the Ali Osman Sönmez State Hospital in the Acemler district. While online appointment systems have been opened for the new location, specific details regarding the exact start dates for various medical units at Ali Osman Sönmez State Hospital have not been officially released by the Ministry of Health or the Bursa Provincial Health Directorate.

The future of the vacated building in Çekirge remains uncertain. Previous local reports suggested possibilities such as converting the structure into a physical therapy hospital or an 'Esenlik Merkezi,' though no official decision has been confirmed regarding whether the building will be demolished or repurposed for public use.
