TL;DR
Without insurance and without speaking Turkish, go to Medical Park Antalya Hospital — a Russian-speaking translator is present during the doctor's appointment, but everything is paid out of pocket. A public (state) clinic is another option, where a rabies vaccine was given quickly and, depending on prior vaccination history, may only require two doses instead of the full course.
After following up, one traveler got vaccinated at a public (state) clinic — the visit was quick. Since she had already started the vaccination course earlier in the year, the doctor only prescribed two additional doses instead of restarting the full course.
If you don't speak Turkish and have no insurance, regular Turkish clinics may turn you away. It's recommended to go to Medical Park Antalya Hospital, where a Russian-speaking translator is present during the consultation. All services are paid.
