"I have an individualized, evidence based, comprehensive, patient-oriented health screening programme leading to a comprehensive personal health management which I held the copyright of the whole know-how."
Dr. Demet Karadenizli
Demet Karadenizli, MD has her expertise and passion through health and wellness. Her COMPACTLY SRUCTURED Health Screening model allows a comprehensive systematic patient oriented and evidence based evaluation of the current medical status which gives a chance for executing all the diagnosis and risk factors simultaneously for each and every patient. She has built this model after eleven years of experience with four hospital implementations. Her previous background composed of teaching clinical skills to preclinical students and creating a geriatrics curriculum in a non-geriatrician faculty) as an assistant professor, and ruling a branch for “National study on Assesment of the Nature and Extent of Drug Abuse in Turkey” project; (Project No. AD/TUR/02/G02 UNODC-GAP/Turkey, 2002-2003, ANKARA) These were the previous multidisciplinary projects she inspired in developing this compact model for health screening. This approach has approved itself with an international patient loyalty and early diagnosis rates which should be the key performance indicators for a comprehensive health screening.
She is a Hacettepe University Medical Faculty (Eng) graduate (since 1995), family medicine specialist (since 2003), an ADLER certified life coach (since 2015), NLP practitioner, and a NGH certified hypnotherapist.

Why Patients Choose Us
Early Diagnosis
The main effectiveness criteria for a health screening clinic is the cancer diagnosis. As widely known; early diagnosis is the key for survival.
In our health screening clinic, we put many diagnosis of many dieases; we discriminate the indistinguished patients as well.
Between September 2014 and September 2019 we retrospectively investigate all the patients in Kent Hospital’s Health screening Clinic. Here are some of the cancer incidances according to our available data (All numbers are in 100000 people):
Breast cancer: 120 (in women) Thyroid cancer : In men 125 In women 160 Malignant melanoma: 46,2 In men: 25 In women 80 In order to compare the data let’s take a look at Turkiye’s available most current data which is 2015 Cancer statistics Breast cancer: 43,8 (in women) Thyroid cancer In men 6 In women 21,7 Malignant melanoma: In men: 1,5 In women 1,4 These high incidances should not scare anybody As all these patients are healthy and alive, all had clean surgical borders and clean lymph nodes (means #earlydiagnosis ), all got back their health with minor interventions. We are working with passion to keep everybody experiencing their own lowest health risks.

International Patient Loyalty
