I am interested in head and neck surgery,especially oncological surgeries including laser and robotic surgeries.As a result of my adventure as a General Surgery Assistant, I became a General Surgery Specialist in 2010. During my general surgery assistantship, I performed many surgeries and surgeries.

A challenging training process at Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine and the training that started at Okmeydanı Training and Research Hospital in 2005.

As a result of my adventure as a General Surgery Assistant, I became a General Surgery Specialist in 2010.

During my general surgery assistantship, I performed many surgeries and surgeries.

My interest and love for laparoscopic surgery developed during my assistantship.

During the more than 10 years I worked at Antalya Training and Research Hospital, I mainly performed cancer and obesity surgeries.

I decided to perform more laparoscopic surgeries.

I also received domestic and international training on obesity surgery, robotic surgery and advanced endoscopic applications.

With my interest in technology, my enjoyment of robotic surgery, laparoscopic surgery and advanced endoscopic applications has increased even more.

Over time, my curiosity in medical literature took me from reading scientific articles to writing scientific articles.

I have written many medical articles together with my colleagues and assistant doctor friends.

I passed the first stage of my Associate Professorship application with the medical articles I wrote and contributed to, and I entered the faculty in November 2017.

As a result of the associate professor exam, I received the title of associate professor.

As a clinical instructor, I performed many specialized surgeries and had the opportunity to contribute to the education of my fellow residents.

In August 2021, I had to leave Antalya Training and Research Hospital, where I worked with pleasure, for personal reasons.

In the same year, I started working at Private Termessos Hospital.

While I mainly perform obesity and metabolic surgeries, I also continue to perform oncological surgeries.

It makes me happy professionally to develop my interest in laparoscopic surgery in the field of obesity and metabolic surgery.

With the support given to me by the management of Private Termessos Hospital, we have made important progress in health tourism in one year.

In this regard, I would like to thank the Private Termesos Hospital Management and all its employees.

As of September 2022, I was honored with the Board Membership of Private Termessos Hospital, where I work as a Manager.

Even though I moved to my private practice, I still perform my surgeries at Private Termessos Hospital.
