01Experience and approach
Clinical judgement before any procedure.
Dr Kenan Afilitak graduated from Istanbul University Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine in 1983 and completed his General Surgery specialisation at Anadolu University in 1989.
His surgical work includes bariatric and metabolic surgery, general and digestive surgery, laparoscopic techniques and oncological surgery. At Florya Obesity Center, his focus is the safe assessment and surgical treatment of people living with obesity.
Every recommendation begins with medical history, metabolic health, previous weight treatment, reflux, medicines and the patient’s ability to follow long-term nutritional care. Surgery is recommended only when the expected benefits and risks support that decision.
