I was born in 1977 in the center of VAN. After completing my primary, secondary and high school education in Van, I started my medical education at Istanbul University Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine in 1995. After graduating in 2001, I started my specialization in General Surgery at Bezm-i Alem Vakıf Gureba Training and Research Hospital. In 2007, I worked as a General Surgery Specialist at Siirt State Hospital for approximately 2 years within the scope of compulsory service. After my compulsory service, I started working as a chief assistant at Istanbul Haydarpaşa Numune Training and Research Hospital. During my duty, I specialized in Liver Transplantation, Bile Duct and Pancreatic Surgery at İnönü University Liver Transplantation Institute for 1 year. In addition to being responsible for the Liver Transplantation unit at Haydarpaşa Numune Training and Research Hospital, I performed many operations in the field of Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery. One year after receiving the title of Associate Professor in 2015, I founded the European Obesity Surgery and started working as an Obesity and Metabolism Surgery Specialist. As of December 2021, I have been appointed as a faculty member at Nişantaşı University with the rank of Professor.
