Cansu Yılmaz, MD

Cansu Yılmaz, MD is a pediatrician at Acibadem Bursa Hospital in Bursa, where she works in the Pediatrics unit. She provides medical care for infants, children and adolescents, covering assessment, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up from the newborn period through adolescence. She has more than 17 years in medicine and works with families to plan care that is appropriate to each child’s age and stage of development.

Dr. Yılmaz graduated from Erciyes University Faculty of Medicine in 2009. She then completed her specialization training in the Department of Child Health and Diseases at Uludağ University Faculty of Medicine, finishing in 2016. She joined Acıbadem Healthcare Services in 2026 and is currently based in Bursa, where she sees both local and international pediatric patients.

Clinical focus

Her areas of expertise include the diagnosis and treatment of iron deficiency and anemia in children, the diagnosis and treatment of childhood infectious diseases, and upper respiratory tract diseases in children. She also monitors pediatric nutritional disorders, following feeding, growth and laboratory findings over time and adjusting the plan as a child develops. Care is delivered in an age-appropriate manner, and parents or guardians are included in discussions about findings, treatment choices and follow-up.

A further part of her practice is newborn follow-up. This includes newborn screening tests and the treatment of newborn jaundice, as well as routine monitoring during the early weeks of life. Within the wider field of child and adolescent health, Dr. Yılmaz sees children both for scheduled check-ups and for acute complaints. The choice of investigations and treatment depends on the child’s age, history and clinical findings, and where a condition falls outside general pediatrics, referral to another specialty may be discussed with the family.

How Dr. Yılmaz works with international patients

Dr. Yılmaz consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for families who speak other languages. Before a visit, the Acibadem international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and imaging, for example laboratory and pathology results, ultrasound or X-ray reports, 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 imaging and previous treatments, a clinical examination and a discussion of the options. Video consultation is available for international patients and may be used for an initial discussion or for reviewing reports before or after a visit, although some pediatric assessments require an in-person examination.
