Clinical focus

A central part of Dr. Gürsoy's practice is urogynecology, which addresses pelvic floor and bladder concerns in women. She evaluates and treats urinary incontinence and other bladder health problems. Assessment generally begins with a detailed history of symptoms and their effect on daily life, followed by a clinical examination; the appropriate approach depends on the type of incontinence, the findings, and the patient's general health and preferences.

Dr. Gürsoy also provides menopause care, including the evaluation of symptoms and a discussion of possible management options, and she offers treatment of sexual dysfunction. These concerns are often connected with pelvic floor health and hormonal changes, so they are considered together with the patient's overall gynecological picture. Which options are suitable is decided individually after examination and, where relevant, a review of previous investigations and treatments.

How Dr. Gürsoy works with international patients

Dr. Gürsoy consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for 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 can be used to discuss a case and existing records before a decision about travel is made.
