Who may find a Sunday appointment useful?
Sunday appointments can be practical for women who work during the week, international residents, visitors to Istanbul, shift workers, caregivers and anyone who has limited access to weekday medical appointments.
What can be assessed on Sunday?
Gynecological concerns
- Pelvic or lower abdominal pain
- Unexpected vaginal bleeding or spotting
- Vaginal discharge, itching or irritation
- Menstrual problems
- Ovarian cyst-related concerns
- Questions after a previous gynecological procedure
Pregnancy-related concerns
- Early pregnancy assessment
- Light bleeding or spotting
- Pelvic or lower abdominal discomfort
- Questions about vaginal fluid or discharge
- Nausea and vomiting in pregnancy
- General pregnancy evaluation when a same-day specialist opinion is appropriate
Gynecological examination and ultrasound
Depending on the reason for the visit, assessment may include a medical history, gynecological examination and ultrasound when clinically appropriate. If laboratory tests, hospital observation or emergency treatment are required, the appropriate next step will be discussed.
HPV, Pap smear and cervical health
For non-urgent cervical health concerns, a Sunday consultation may also be useful for discussing previous HPV or Pap smear results and planning follow-up. For more detailed information, see our HPV, Pap Smear & Colposcopy in Istanbul page.
Is this an emergency department?
No. The private practice is not a hospital emergency department. Severe or rapidly worsening abdominal pain, heavy vaginal bleeding, fainting, severe shortness of breath, chest pain, seizures, major trauma or any situation that may be life-threatening should be assessed through emergency medical services or the nearest hospital emergency department.
If a problem starts on Sunday, should you wait until Monday?
Not every symptom requires emergency care, but some symptoms should not simply be postponed because it is Sunday. New or persistent pelvic pain, bleeding in pregnancy, suspected fluid leakage, fever with pelvic symptoms or significant vomiting may require same-day medical assessment depending on severity and the clinical context.

Frequently asked questions
Are you open every Sunday?
Sunday appointments may be available by prior arrangement. Availability should be confirmed before coming to the clinic.
Can I come without an appointment?
For Sunday visits, please contact the clinic first. This prevents unnecessary travel if a hospital setting would be more appropriate for your symptoms.
Can pregnancy-related concerns be assessed on Sunday?
Some pregnancy-related concerns can be assessed in the office when clinically appropriate. Symptoms suggesting a true emergency should be evaluated in a hospital emergency setting.
Can I contact you in English?
You may send your appointment request in English by WhatsApp and include your main concern, pregnancy week if applicable, and preferred appointment time. See our gynecologist in Istanbul guide for English-speaking patients for practice details and language arrangements to confirm before your visit.
