Clinical focus

The core of Dr. Danışoğlu’s practice is urologic surgery. In this field, he evaluates patients with conditions of the kidneys, urinary tract and male reproductive organs, and discusses whether surgical or non-surgical management is appropriate in a given case. Decisions about treatment are made after a review of the patient’s history, current symptoms, prior investigations and a clinical examination, and the options considered depend on the individual findings.

Because urological conditions vary widely in their presentation and course, a careful initial assessment is an important step before any intervention is planned. For background reading, this site provides general information on nephrolithiasis treatment and renal ultrasonography; whether any specific investigation or treatment is relevant to an individual patient is determined during consultation with the treating physician.

How Dr. Danışoğlu works with international patients

Dr. Danışoğlu consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. 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 who wish to discuss their case or review findings remotely before deciding whether to travel for in-person evaluation or treatment.
