Professor MD. Berçem Ayçiçek is a distinguished Endocrinology and Metabolic Diseases specialist, leading the Diabetes Polyclinic at Liv Hospital Ulus. Her clinical practice is characterized by a commitment to world-class care that is highly patient-centric, focusing on optimizing individual metabolic health and preventing long-term complications. Prof. Ayçiçek’s clinical expertise covers a wide and complex spectrum, including Diabetes, advanced management of Thyroid Diseases and Thyroid Cancer, Obesity, and rare disorders of the Pituitary Gland Diseases and Adrenal Gland Diseases. She manages intricate metabolic issues like Hyperlipidemia, Secondary Hypertension (Resistant Hypertension), and conditions related to hormonal imbalance, such as Irregular menstruation, Hirsutism, and Delayed Puberty. Utilizing advanced technology and contemporary diagnostic tools, Prof. Ayçiçek tailors her advanced treatments using the latest in pharmacological and lifestyle interventions. Her research comparing intensive and non-intensive insulin regimens in Type 2 Diabetes demonstrates a commitment to evidence-based practical care, while her work on macro and trace elements in microvascular complications of diabetes highlights her attention to minimizing long-term damage. This minimally invasive and preventative approach aims to ensure a faster recovery from acute issues and superior long-term clinical outcomes with enhanced patient comfort. Her extensive background, including specialized training and associate professorship roles at leading university hospitals, provides her with the comprehensive international experience necessary to deliver highly specialized, individualized endocrine care.
As a full Professor and preeminent academic authority in Endocrinology and Metabolism, Prof. MD. Berçem Ayçiçek plays a vital role in shaping the scientific landscape of diabetes and hormonal disorders. Her academic career is defined by rigorous scientific research and a prolific publications record, with over 28 major articles published in leading international, peer-reviewed journals and over 75 total publications contributing to her 490 citations. This extensive body of work is a testament to her adherence to evidence-based medicine. Her research explores critical diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, including the predictive value of thyroglobulin for thyroid remnant ablation in differentiated thyroid cancer, the association of cardiovascular risks (like epicardial fat thickness) with non-functioning adrenal incidentalomas, and the hormonal imbalances underlying conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). Prof. Ayçiçek’s profound engagement with academic discourse is further underscored by her active memberships in the Turkish Endocrine and Metabolism Society and the European Society of Endocrinology. Her standing as an educator and faculty member ensures that the most current scientific knowledge is immediately translated into best clinical practice at Liv Hospital. By continuously contributing to scientific literature and lecturing on the latest findings in diagnostics and treatment for complex endocrine pathology, she maintains her position as a scientific leader whose patients benefit from a comprehensive, sophisticated care plan built upon the most authoritative scientific evidence.
