Main Target Diseases and Clinic Days

• Outpatient rhinosinus and allergy (outpatient olfaction): Tuesday afternoon
  We mainly treat olfactory disorders. Diagnosis of the cause of olfactory disorders is very important, and the treatment plan depends on it. We diagnose the cause of olfactory disorders through a detailed medical interview, nasal endoscopy, blood sampling, and imaging tests. In addition, we consider the continuation of treatment while determining the state of olfactory dysfunction through olfactory function tests.
• Sleep apnea outpatient clinic: Wednesday afternoon
  We investigate and treat the causes of sleep apnea in adults and children. We use CPAP, sleep splints, and medication as conservative treatment methods, as well as strict criteria for surgery when indicated.
• Outpatient nasal sinus and allergy clinic: Thursday afternoon
  We offer drug therapy, immunotherapy, and inferior turbinate mucosa cauterization. We are also devising or introducing new treatment methods for eosinophilic sinusitis and eosinophilic otitis media, which have become problematic in recent years.
