Dr. Birsen Erzincan
Ear, nose and throat specialist. Rhinoplasty, otoplasty and functional nasal surgery.

I graduated from Kocaeli Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi in 2013 and completed my residency in otorhinolaryngology (ENT) at Ümraniye Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi in 2020. My specialty thesis was titled “The Relationship Between Head Volume and Paranasal Sinus Volumes in the Paediatric Population: A Radiological Cohort Study”. Since my residency I have focused on nasal and sinus disease, septal deviation, turbinate problems and functional surgery.
After residency I worked for two years at Pendik Devlet Hastanesi, gaining clinical experience with a wide range of patients both in the outpatient clinic and in the operating theatre. I have been seeing patients in my own private clinic since 2022, aiming to offer individual solutions through closer and more comprehensive follow-up. Around 80% of my practice consists of rhinoplasty and nasal surgery.
To keep my knowledge and skills up to date, I have attended numerous national and international courses and congresses:
- Structure Preservation Rhinoplasty Course (2020)
- All-in-One Rhinoplasty Course (2018)
- Bella Eyes Course (2022)
- Cerrahpaşa 1st Endoscopic Sinus Surgery Course
- USEAD Fresh Frozen Cadaver Temporal Bone Dissection Course (2020)
- Hands-on Minimally Invasive Facial Rejuvenation Course on Fresh Frozen Cadavers (2021)
I have also taken part in many national and international ENT congresses. I wrote the chapter “Pediatrik Rinosinüzit” (Paediatric Rhinosinusitis) in the book “Pediatrik Kulak Burun Boğaz Hastalıkları” (Paediatric Ear, Nose and Throat Diseases), published by Akademisyen Yayınevi in 2024 (DOI: 10.37609/akya.2917).
Diagnostic accuracy, functional assessment and evidence-based guidelines come first in my clinical approach. I assess each patient individually and plan treatment with attention not only to the complaint but also to quality of life and long-term wellbeing.
I grew up in a multicultural environment as the child of a family that emigrated from Bulgaria. I hold an International Health Tourism Authorisation Certificate approved by the Turkish Ministry of Health and provide care to patients from abroad within a legal and ethical framework.
In the media
I was a guest on the programme “Ece Erken ile Biz Bize” on TV100, where I talked about prominent ears and their treatment. You can watch the video (in Turkish) on the Otoplasty page.

Surgery is performed at NP İstanbul and Acıbadem Kozyatağı Hastanesi.
