There is a local doctor at the clinic near the Mosque in Calis, who speaks some english. Most peopple use the doctors at the various hopitals who will provide translators. Yes it is true that most, but not all, prescription drugs can be purchaced over the counter.
If you have a look here there is a list of whart drugs are available and the price....

You also have the option of paying to see a specialist in a particular field at their own clinic - with residency about 90 lira. On some things Turkey seems ot be leaps and bounds ahead of the UK and on others very backward.
