Gazi University later awarded him specialist diplomas in hand surgery and microsurgery and in oral and maxillofacial surgery, both in 2013. He held a research fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation in the USA and a fellowship at Sahlgrenska University in Gothenburg, Sweden. The hospital's pages give different years for these two, so no years are shown. He held associate professor and professor ranks at Gazi University and has worked at the American Hospital since 2013. The hospital's page also lists a professorship at Koç University School of Medicine from 2014.
