Among the specialists Clinic-Y can arrange consultations with in Istanbul is Dr. Zuhal Cakmak Peksen, a general practitioner at İstinye University Clinic-Y partner hospital Topkapı. Clinic-Y is an independent facilitation agency. We include a specialist in your written plan when the case profile matches, and we compare several partner teams before recommending one.
Focus areas
Dr. Zuhal Cakmak Peksen is listed in General practitioner and Check-up Physician. Your case is matched to a specialist by diagnosis rather than by popularity, so the fit between your condition and their day-to-day caseload is what decides the recommendation.
Experience
Practising since 2013, Dr. Zuhal Cakmak Peksen has around 13 years of clinical experience in general practitioner work. Volume matters more than titles: a specialist who performs your procedure regularly will usually manage the unexpected better than one who does it occasionally.
Communication and language
Consultations are held in English. A Clinic-Y medical interpreter attends every consultation, consent discussion and discharge briefing, so the conversation happens in your own language regardless of the specialist you see.
Patient ratings
Dr. Zuhal Cakmak Peksen has no independently verified review score on file yet. That is common for specialists newly listed on international platforms and is not a mark against them; it simply means the rating column is empty rather than low.
Consultation options
The first face-to-face consultation takes place on your first day in Istanbul, before anything is scheduled. In either case the specialist confirms or honestly revises the remote plan, and nothing proceeds until you agree.
Where treatment takes place
Dr. Zuhal Cakmak Peksen treats Clinic-Y patients at İstinye University Clinic-Y partner hospital Topkapı, which holds a verified patient rating of 5.0 out of 5 and has 300 inpatient beds. Clinic-Y books surgical cases only into full-service hospitals with intensive care on site.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I request this specialist by name?
Yes, provided your case is clinically suitable. If another specialist in the network is a better fit for your diagnosis, we will tell you and explain why.
Is a second opinion possible?
Yes, and it is free. Clinic-Y can send the same file to a second partner specialist and give you both written assessments.
What does the consultation cost?
The remote case review is free. Any in-person consultation fee is stated in your written plan before you travel, and in most packages it is already included.
