Dr. Ünsal Tank

Dr. Ünsal Tank is a dermatologist at Acibadem Eskisehir Hospital in Eskişehir, where he practices within the Dermatology unit. With more than 45 years in medicine, he evaluates and treats patients with a range of skin conditions, including inflammatory disorders such as psoriasis and Behçet’s disease, skin infections and fungal skin infections, hives, sun-related reactions such as sun allergy and sunburn, and pigmentation concerns.

Dr. Tank graduated from Ankara University Faculty of Medicine in 1981 and completed his specialty training at Cumhuriyet University Faculty of Medicine Department of Dermatology and Venereal Diseases in 1992. The early years of his career were spent in health centers, first at Mardin Cizre Health Center from 1981 to 1983 and then at Eskişehir No. 1 Health Center from 1984 to 1989. From 1992 to 2020 he worked at Eskişehir Yunus Emre Devlet Hospital, and in 2020 he joined Acıbadem Healthcare Services.

Clinical focus

Dr. Tank’s clinical work covers both common and less common skin conditions. In the area of inflammatory skin disease, he manages psoriasis, a chronic condition that usually requires ongoing follow-up and adjustment of treatment over time, and Behçet’s disease, in which skin and mucosal findings can be an important part of the overall clinical picture. He also assesses and treats hives, reviewing possible triggers with the patient and discussing options for symptom control.

Infectious skin conditions form another part of his practice, including skin infections and fungal skin infections, where diagnosis is based on clinical examination and, when needed, further testing. Dr. Tank also sees patients with sun-related skin reactions, including sun allergy and sunburn, and advises on protection and care. In addition, he provides pigmentation treatment for patients concerned about uneven skin tone or darkened areas, following an examination to determine the nature of the pigmentation and the approach that may be appropriate for the individual.

How Dr. Tank works with international patients

Dr. Tank 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, such as previous dermatology notes, laboratory and pathology results, photographs of the affected skin where available, and discharge summaries, and arranges appointments and the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of previous treatments and any existing test results, a clinical examination of the skin, and a discussion of the options that may be suitable. Video consultation is available for international patients who wish to discuss their condition or review findings before or after traveling to Eskişehir.
