Clinical focus

A large part of Dr. Yeşilkaya’s work concerns thyroid diseases and their treatment. He evaluates patients with suspected or known thyroid disorders, reviews existing laboratory and imaging results, and discusses treatment and follow-up. Further information on this area is available on the thyroid disease treatment page. He also sees patients with metabolic conditions, including prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, and obesity, where assessment typically includes a review of the patient’s history, current medication, and laboratory findings before a management plan is discussed.

Other conditions within his area of expertise include anemia, edema, gastritis, fatty liver disease, and upper respiratory tract diseases. For these concerns, Dr. Yeşilkaya’s approach is to identify the underlying cause where possible and to agree on a plan for treatment and monitoring with the patient. The conditions he manages are:

• Thyroid diseases and treatment
• Prediabetes and type 2 diabetes
• Obesity
• Anemia
• Edema
• Gastritis
• Fatty liver disease
• Upper respiratory tract diseases

How Dr. Yeşilkaya works with international patients

Dr. Yeşilkaya speaks Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who need them. Before a visit, the Acibadem international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and imaging, such as laboratory and pathology results, ultrasound, MRI, CT, or X-ray reports, and discharge summaries, and arranges appointments and the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of existing test results and previous treatments, a clinical examination, and a discussion of the available options. Video consultation is available for international patients who wish to discuss their case with Dr. Yeşilkaya before or instead of traveling, subject to the nature of the concern and the information available.
