Gastroenterology · Advanced & Interventional Endoscopy
Assoc. Prof. Süleyman Günay brings advanced endoscopy, clinical decision-making, physician education and scientific work into one professional path. His journey from Ege University expanded through advanced therapeutic endoscopy training in Seoul, international congresses and live-case education; after Medicana International İzmir in 2024–2025, he has continued at Memorial Göztepe since 2025. Beyond medicine, running, books, cinema, music, theatre, cities and the arts are visible parts of his personal world.
