With a broad background in general radiology and a subspecialisation in neuroradiology, I bring a wide scope of experience to my work at Acibadem International Medical Center. My particular areas of interest include thoracic imaging and interstitial lung diseases. In addition, I have a strong affinity for preventive medicine and early detection of disease, which I believe are essential pillars for improving long-term patient outcomes.
A healthy lifestyle and early diagnosis can make a world of difference in preventing and managing illness. I believe radiology plays a key role in this process—not just in diagnosis, but in helping patients gain insight into their health and take proactive steps towards well-being.
As a radiologist, I am constantly inspired by the rapid technological advancements in our field, which enable us to diagnose with ever-increasing precision. I strive to stay at the forefront of these developments to provide the best possible care for my patients.
I place great importance on making patients feel at ease during radiological procedures. I aim to approach my work with a calm, focused, and empathetic attitude, ensuring that every patient is treated with respect and understanding.
