Clinical focus

A substantial part of Dr. Süleymanoğlu’s work concerns the diagnosis and management of diabetes and related metabolic conditions. He evaluates and treats patients with prediabetes, type 1 diabetes, and type 2 diabetes. Treatment planning is based on the individual patient’s history, current findings, and previous therapies, and may involve ongoing follow-up to assess how well glucose levels are being managed over time.

He also provides thyroid disease diagnosis and treatment, the diagnosis and treatment of metabolic diseases, and the evaluation and management of obesity. In addition, his practice includes longevity applications. Because these conditions frequently overlap, patients are commonly assessed for related metabolic factors as part of a broader internal medicine evaluation. The suitability of any specific approach depends on the individual case and is determined after clinical assessment.

How Dr. Süleymanoğlu works with international patients

Dr. Süleymanoğlu 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, arranges appointments, and organizes the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of existing laboratory results, 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 with Dr. Süleymanoğlu before deciding whether to travel, or for follow-up where clinically appropriate.
