The national registers for Turkey cover İzmir too:

Clinics

Ministry of Health: healthcare providers authorised for health tourism

Four lists: hospitals, medical centres, private practices, other providers. Check that the exact clinic and address you are booked into is listed: an authorisation is not transferable between sites.

Clinics

HealthTürkiye (USHAŞ, under the Ministry of Health): certified providers and facilitators

Explains the certification of clinics and of the agencies (facilitators) that sell treatment to foreigners; agencies need their own authorisation.

Dentists

Turkish Dental Association (TDB): Find a Dentist

Search a dentist by first or last name, and narrow by province: the result shows the name, city and district. Not every dentist may show up: if the name is missing, ask for their dental chamber and registration number and check with the chamber.
