Sharing the success story that started with one patient, Medical Oncologist Dr. Nail Özhan stated that they have come to serve hundreds of patients on this journey. Dr. Nail Özhan said, “As medical oncology, we take part in all stages of cancer treatment. By this, I mean ensuring that a patient with suspected cancer is quickly diagnosed, treating patients diagnosed with cancer at early or advanced stages primarily with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted drugs, and carrying out follow-ups of patients whose treatments are completed at 3, 6, and 12-month intervals. We, as medical oncology, are involved in all these stages.”
Congratulating the staff of the Egekent Hospital Medical Oncology Department for their success, Chief Physician Gökhan Peker said, “I would like to thank our doctor, Nail Özhan, and nurse Ms. Hatice. Here, both conscience and emotions take precedence. We receive very positive feedback because they treat patients as if they were their own relatives. I sincerely thank them all and wish them continued success.”
During the event, certificates of appreciation were presented by Chief Physician Gökhan Peker to Deputy Director Cüneyt Dalkılıç, Head Nurse Hülya Koçer, Medical Oncologist Dr. Nail Özhan, Oncology Department Nurses Hatice Tak and Özge Şahin, and Oncology Secretary Sevgi Selek for their services in the Medical Oncology Department.
