Dr. Sinan Coşkun Turan
In assessing cardiovascular disease, I take a holistic approach that looks beyond test results alone—listening to symptoms, weighing risk factors, and integrating clinical findings. At my practice in Kozyatağı, Kadıköy, I aim to give every patient enough time, avoid unnecessary investigations, and move forward only with a clear indication.
To model a cardiology practice that is not test-driven, but guided by clinical judgment, physician experience, and the patient’s story. To give each consultation enough time, weigh symptoms, risks, and findings together, avoid unnecessary procedures, and foster a clinic culture where patients feel heard. My aim is to be a trusted reference for measured, sustainable heart care in Kadıköy / Kozyatağı.
At my Kozyatağı, Kadıköy clinic, to evaluate every patient in the context of their clinical status, risk factors, and daily life—and to plan ECG, echocardiography, and advanced testing with a holistic view. To apply the right test to the right person, explain results in plain language, and shape follow-up and treatment decisions together with the patient. In doing so, my core purpose is to deliver safe, transparent, and lasting cardiology care.
I was born in Ordu in 1968. After primary and secondary school in Ordu and graduating from Istanbul Kabataş Boys’ High School, I graduated from Istanbul University Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine in 1990. I completed my cardiology residency at the Istanbul University Institute of Cardiology between 1991 and 1996. I then worked as a cardiologist at Istanbul VKV American Hospital until 2000, Istanbul Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital until 2010, Istanbul Private Kozyatağı Central Hospital until 2020, and later at Altunizade Private Academic Hospital. Since 2020 I have been practicing at my private clinic in Kozyatağı, Kadıköy, Istanbul. Within clinical cardiology I focus especially on hypertension, cholesterol and related lipid disorders, diabetes, coronary artery disease, heart failure, rhythm disorders and arrhythmia, coronary CT angiography (virtual angiography), and interventional procedures including coronary angiography, drug-coated balloons, and stents. I speak English and am a member of the Turkish Medical Association, the Turkish Society of Cardiology, and related working groups.
Sound heart-health assessment is not possible from a single test result alone—it requires clinical judgment and experience. My practice rests on three core principles.
Rather than applying the same investigations to everyone, symptoms, risk factors, ECG, and echocardiography findings are reviewed together so that only truly necessary tests are planned—avoiding redundant workups and wasted time.
ECG, echocardiography, CT angiography, and other imaging are never read in isolation; they are interpreted alongside the clinical picture. The aim is not merely to issue a report, but to understand the patient’s heart health accurately.
From consultation and testing through any interventional steps that may follow, each stage is personally overseen by me—so patients are guided by the same physician from assessment to treatment.

Her şeyiyle mükemmel bir hoca. Diğer doktorların ve hastanelerin yanlış bilgi analizi nedeniyle hocamıza uğradık. Hem mükemmel bir muayene gerçekleştirdi, hem yanlış bilgileri düzeltti hem de aklımızdaki tüm soru işaretlerini giderdi. Keşke daha fazla puan verebilseydik.
