Hello everyone!

My name is Hamide Uzun. I am experienced Nutritionist on Wellness, detox and anti aging programmes.

My aim is helping persons to understand eating habits and sustaining their lifestyle habits about nutrition.

I am graduated ın 2011 Erciyes University Health Sciences Faculty and now also studying PhD İn İzmir Katip Celebi University.

The fact that nutrition science increases with new information every day makes me enthusiastic about doing this profession.My mission is to combine my professional talent with my deep knowledge of health and well-being to provide solutions that will bring balance and harmony to people's physical and mental health. My goal is to continuously improve this field and implement comprehensive approaches that will improve people's lives.

I’m Zeynep, a Physiotherapist born in the magnificent city of Antalya.

My interest in medicine and especially human anatomy, and my creative perspective, encouraged me to become a physiotherapist.

That’s why I went to university in Cyprus from 2015 – 2019.

When I came back to Antalya, I participated in many certificate programs in the field of physiotherapy.

Then I attended language courses to improve my English.

Because my city is visited by many tourists, I have always been interested in communicating with people from different cultures.

This is why I began my career in a health and rehabilitation hotel.I had patients from different parts of the world.It was a great experience treating them and learning about their cultures at the same time.

As a therapist, postural awareness is what I focus on most when helping my patients.

I believe that the pain complaints we often encounter today begin with a lack of this awareness.

This was the reason behind my starting at Medworld Clinics in 2024, which offered me many innovative opportunities and adopted a holistic approach.
