I was born in 1976, graduated from Samsun Anatolian High School in 1994 and entered Istanbul University Istanbul Faculty of Medicine in the same year.
While I was a student at the faculty, I was assigned as a sleep examiner intern at the Sleep Laboratory in the Department of Chest Diseases, Istanbul Faculty of Medicine between 1997 and 2000. I actively participated in PSG and related sleep examinations and test interpretation studies for snoring, sleep respiratory arrest and other sleep disorders. I graduated from Istanbul Faculty of Medicine as a Medical Doctor in 2000.
I specialized in Istanbul Training and Research Hospital Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery Clinic and became a specialist in 2006.
Between 2006-2008, I worked as an ENT Specialist at Rize Çayeli State Hospital, where I was appointed for compulsory service. Then I completed my military service as a medical sub-lieutenant-lieutenant for 1 year. I worked in Antalya, Ataşehir and Şişli locations for 11 years in Memorial Health Group, where I started working in 2010. With the invitation of Istanbul Surgery Hospital, I worked in this hospital for 1 year. I am currently taking care of my patients in my own practice.
