Clinical focus

Dr. Göbel evaluates and manages a broad range of internal medicine conditions, with a particular interest in thyroid diseases and their treatment. Her practice also includes the diagnosis and treatment of metabolic disorders and the assessment and management of obesity. In these areas, care generally begins with a review of the patient’s history, symptoms and existing laboratory results, followed by a discussion of the treatment options that may be appropriate for the individual patient.

She also treats patients with anemia, type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes, as well as upper respiratory tract diseases. Because several of these conditions are long-term, her work includes ongoing follow-up alongside the initial diagnostic evaluation, with treatment plans adjusted according to the patient’s clinical course and response.

How Dr. Göbel works with international patients

Dr. Göbel consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. The hospital’s international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and imaging, arranges appointments and organises the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of existing imaging, laboratory results and previous treatments, a clinical examination, and a discussion of the available options. Video consultations are available for international patients who wish to discuss their situation with Dr. Göbel before traveling or as part of follow-up, where clinically appropriate.
