I was born in 1971 in Istanbul. I graduated from Kadıköy Anatolian High School in 1989 and Istanbul University Istanbul Faculty of Medicine in 1995 and completed my residency training at Istanbul University Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Department of Chest Diseases in 2001. Throughout my career, I have played pioneering roles in various prestigious healthcare institutions, especially in the establishment of bronchoscopy and sleep laboratories.
My areas of expertise include early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer, bronchoscopy, EBUS, allergic asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), respiratory tract infections, interstitial lung diseases, shortness of breath, cough diagnosis and treatment and sleep-related respiratory disorders.
I was awarded the first prize in the poster presentation category with my study titled “Home Sleep Studies With Limited Device” at the annual congress of the Turkish Thoracic Society held in 2003. In addition, I pioneered the establishment of bronchoscopy and sleep laboratories in leading hospitals such as Istanbul Koşuyolu Medipol Hospital, Istanbul Aydin University Faculty of Medicine and KadıköyŞifa Ataşehir Hospital. I also worked at Acibadem Maslak Hospital and Istanbul Oncology Hospital. As of 2024, I continue to practice my profession at Medicana Zincirlikuyu Hospital.
I am a member of important organizations such as Turkish Thoracic Society, European Respiratory Society, Istanbul Medical Chamber and Turkish Respiratory Research Association. I use English at a professional level and keep my professional knowledge and skills up to date with continuous trainings.
I aim to improve the quality of life of my patients and provide innovative solutions in the field of health with my work.
In my Chest Disease department, I focus on prevention, early diagnosis, treatment, and education for respiratory diseases.
