Ahmet Kurt, MD

Ahmet Kurt, MD is an Internal Medicine physician at Acibadem Altunizade Hospital in İstanbul. He works within the hospital’s Internal Medicine unit, where he provides evaluation and care for adult patients with a broad range of internal medicine concerns. With more than 20 years in medicine, his practice centers on the general medical assessment of adults whose symptoms, test results, or existing diagnoses call for a structured internal medicine evaluation.

Dr. Kurt graduated from Çukurova University Faculty of Medicine in 2006. He then completed his specialty training in the Department of Internal Medicine at Haydarpaşa Numune Training and Research Hospital, finishing in 2015. He has been working with Acıbadem Healthcare Services since 2017.

Clinical focus

Internal medicine is the specialty concerned with the diagnosis and non-surgical management of medical conditions in adults. Within this field, Dr. Kurt sees adult patients with a wide variety of internal medicine concerns. His approach is built around a structured assessment: taking a detailed medical history, reviewing symptoms and any previous findings, performing a clinical examination, and considering which further investigations, if any, are appropriate before discussing the available options with the patient.

Because internal medicine concerns can involve more than one organ system, Dr. Kurt’s work also includes coordinating care within the Internal Medicine unit and communicating clearly with patients about their health concerns. The aim of each evaluation is to reach an understanding of the patient’s situation that is grounded in the history, the examination, and the available results, and to explain that understanding in plain terms so that decisions about next steps can be made together.

How Dr. Kurt works with international patients

Dr. Kurt consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. Before a visit, the international patient team coordinates the collection of prior medical reports and imaging, arranges appointments, and organizes the hospital visit so that the relevant information is available when the patient arrives. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and current symptoms, a review of existing imaging and previous treatments, a clinical examination, and a discussion of the options that follow from these findings. For international patients who would like an initial discussion of their case before traveling, or a follow-up conversation afterward, Dr. Kurt also offers video consultations. These sessions can help clarify what information is needed and whether an in-person evaluation at the hospital is appropriate, although they do not replace a clinical examination.
