Yeditepe University Hospital’s Endocrinology Department is committed to providing the highest quality healthcare for patients with diabetes, endocrine and metabolic disorders, and obesity. Collaboration between endocrinologists, endocrine surgeons, bariatric surgeons and physicians allows the department to work as a multidisciplinary team, providing personalized treatment plans and the best possible patient care.

Our staff is dedicated to exploring ways to improve the care of these patients; our multidisciplinary department is made up of staff physicians, fellows, nurses, medical assistants, diabetes educators, secretaries, patient service representatives, coders, administrators and managers, working together to provide the finest care possible for all our international patients, supported by the trained professionals at our International Services Department, who offer our international patients support and guidance throughout their stay at Yeditepe University Hospital. Our endocrine surgeons have the most extensive experience in the world in the surgical care of thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, endocrinal and pancreatic disorders. Advanced minimally invasive technology is often utilized.

Thyroid disorders are a common complaint that Yeditepe University Hospital is superbly well equipped to deal with. Our services are designed so that all of the specialists you need – including endocrinologists, endocrine surgeons and a complete nursing staff – work together under one roof as a team to accurately diagnose and treat all forms of thyroid disorders. Our high-volume center holds internationally recognized expertise; our experts perform numerous surgical procedures every year – many of which are complex and re-operative surgeries – and, with the liaison assistance of your dedicated helper from our International Services Department, will work hand-in-hand with your primary care physician in your home country to help you receive the most seamless care for your condition possible on an ongoing basis.

Our endocrine surgery team’s thyroid and parathyroid surgery experience is such that patients are increasingly referred for complex conditions such as re-operative problems, advanced cancers and hereditary endocrine syndromes.

Yeditepe University Hospital brings together a wide array of surgical branches as part of our multidisciplinary approach to all health and obesity issues. Thus, our Obesity Surgery Unit is fully integrated into other fields of specialization including the Anesthesiology and Resuscitation, Endocrinology, Psychiatry, Exercise and Nutritional Physiology, Dietetics, and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
