Clinical focus

Dr. Arslanoğlu evaluates and treats common conditions of childhood, with particular attention to digestive and urinary concerns. In children with constipation, assessment typically involves a review of bowel habits, diet and general development before a treatment plan is discussed with the family. He also sees children with urinary incontinence, where the history, the pattern of symptoms and a clinical examination guide the choice of further evaluation and management.

A further area of his practice is the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric infectious diseases. This includes the assessment of children with fever or other signs of infection, the selection of appropriate tests, and the planning of treatment and follow-up. Among these infections, he has a specific interest in chickenpox, including confirmation of the diagnosis, management of symptoms and monitoring for complications where indicated. The approach in each case depends on the child’s age, general health and the findings of the examination.

How Dr. Arslanoğlu works with international patients

Dr. Arslanoğlu 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, such as laboratory 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 test results and previous treatments, a clinical examination and a discussion of the options. Video consultation is available for international patients who wish to discuss a child’s condition before deciding whether to travel.
