Clinical focus

Dr. Aydın’s first listed area of expertise is skin diseases. This is a broad field, and the conditions that fall under it range from short-lived complaints to long-term, relapsing disorders. Her approach to a new patient generally starts with a detailed history, including how long the problem has been present, how it has changed, and which treatments have already been tried, followed by a clinical examination of the affected areas. Where the picture is not clear from examination alone, she discusses with the patient which further steps may be appropriate. Treatment plans are individual and depend on the diagnosis, the extent of the condition, and the patient’s general health.

Her second listed area is venereal diseases, meaning infections that are transmitted through sexual contact and that may present with skin or mucosal findings. Dr. Aydın assesses these presentations within the same dermatology setting, with attention to confidentiality. The consultation typically covers the history of symptoms, an examination, and a discussion of what the findings may indicate and which options are available. Patients are encouraged to raise questions, since clear information is an important part of managing both skin diseases and venereal diseases.

How Dr. Aydın works with international patients

Dr. Aydın speaks 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, arranges appointments, and organises the hospital visit. 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 options. Video consultation is available for international patients, which allows a patient abroad to speak with Dr. Aydın about a skin or venereal condition before deciding whether to travel; any assessment made remotely is preliminary and may need to be confirmed by an in-person examination.
