Clinical focus

Dr. Muslu’s clinical work centers on child and adolescent health from the newborn period onward. In the first weeks of life, he provides newborn follow-up and treatment of neonatal jaundice. For infants, his areas of expertise include infant colic and lactose intolerance in infants, together with feeding and nutrition concerns that can arise in this age group. In older children he evaluates childhood nutrition disorders, growth disorders, and iron deficiency and anemia. These conditions are generally assessed through a combination of the child’s history, a physical examination, and laboratory tests where indicated, and management is planned according to the individual findings.

He also sees children with acute and recurrent illnesses, including childhood infectious diseases, upper respiratory tract infections, and childhood rash illnesses. His practice further covers functional and elimination problems that are common in childhood, such as constipation and urinary incontinence in children. In each case, the assessment is adjusted to the child’s age, symptoms, and stage of development, and parents are involved in the discussion of findings and the options for care.

How Dr. Muslu works with international patients

Dr. Muslu consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for families who speak other languages. Before a visit, the international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports, such as laboratory and pathology results, imaging reports (for example ultrasound or X-ray reports), operative notes, and discharge summaries, and arranges appointments and the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the child’s history and symptoms, a review of existing test results, imaging, and previous treatments, a clinical examination, and a discussion of the options. Video consultation is available for international patients who wish to discuss their child’s situation with Dr. Muslu before traveling or as part of follow-up after a visit.
