Clinical focus

A central part of Alperen Mustafa Oğuz’s work is the rehabilitation of people with neuromuscular diseases and movement disorders. This includes Parkinson’s rehabilitation, where physiotherapy is used to address changes in movement, balance and everyday function, and gait analysis, which involves assessing how a person walks in order to identify patterns that may be addressed through targeted exercises and training. He also provides respiratory therapy and rehabilitation for patients whose breathing may be affected by their condition. The aim of these approaches is to support mobility and daily activity; the content and pace of a program depend on the individual’s diagnosis, general health and personal goals.

In the area of spine health, Alperen Mustafa Oğuz works with patients who have lumbar disc herniation, cervical disc herniation and facet joint syndrome. Physiotherapy for these conditions generally focuses on posture, movement patterns, strengthening and mobility, and it is planned in coordination with the treating physicians of the Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation unit. Whether physiotherapy is appropriate, and which methods are used, is decided after clinical assessment and review of any existing imaging, and treatment plans may be adjusted over time according to how the patient responds.

How Alperen Mustafa Oğuz works with international patients

Alperen Mustafa Oğuz speaks Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who prefer another language. Before a visit, the Acibadem international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and imaging, such as MRI, CT, X-ray or ultrasound reports, laboratory and pathology results, operative notes and discharge summaries, and arranges appointments and the hospital visit itself. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of existing imaging and previous treatments, a clinical examination and a discussion of the available options. Video consultation is available for international patients, which allows a preliminary conversation about the case to take place before any decision to travel is made.
