Leila Mohammadi, MD

Leila Mohammadi, MD is a physician in the Emergency Service at Acibadem Health Group. She completed her medical education at Demiroglu Science University Faculty of Medicine, graduating in 2025, and joined the group in the same year. She works in Turkish and English and is available to international patients for video consultation.

Having qualified in 2025, Dr. Mohammadi is at an early stage of her professional career. Her clinical work is based in the Emergency Service, the hospital department to which patients are directed when a health problem needs to be assessed without delay. Working in this environment means seeing patients whose complaints vary widely in nature and urgency, and contributing to the first stage of their care within the hospital.

Clinical focus

Dr. Mohammadi’s specialty is Emergency Service. In general terms, the emergency department is the point of entry for patients with acute or unexpected health concerns, and the physicians who work there are involved in the initial assessment of such patients. This typically includes taking a history of the presenting complaint, carrying out a clinical examination, reviewing any available information about the patient’s previous health, and helping to decide on the next steps. Depending on the situation, those next steps may involve further testing, treatment within the department, admission to the hospital, or referral to a specialist department for continued care.

Because the Emergency Service works closely with other departments of the hospital, part of the role involves coordinating with colleagues in other specialties so that a patient’s care continues in the appropriate setting once the initial assessment is complete. Patients who are unsure whether their concern falls within the scope of the Emergency Service can discuss this in advance with the international patient team, who can help direct them to the appropriate department.

How Dr. Mohammadi works with international patients

Dr. Mohammadi communicates with patients in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. For patients coming from abroad, the Acibadem international patient team coordinates the collection of prior medical reports and imaging, arranges appointments and organises the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and current symptoms, a review of existing imaging and any previous treatments, a clinical examination and a discussion of the available options. Video consultation is available for international patients, which allows a preliminary conversation with Dr. Mohammadi to take place before any decision about travelling is made. The scope of what can be assessed remotely is limited, and a video consultation does not replace an in-person clinical examination, so its purpose is to provide orientation and to help plan any subsequent visit. Patients are encouraged to have their existing medical documents available when this conversation takes place, so that the information discussed is as complete as possible.
