Dr. Mukaddes Oksuz

Consultant Obstetrician and Gynecologist (German Board-Certified)

Experience

Dr. Mukaddes Oksuz is a German board-certified Consultant Obstetrician and Gynecologist and a graduate of the University of Düsseldorf, Germany. She completed her residency training at two academic teaching hospitals affiliated with the University of Düsseldorf.

In 2007, she was appointed as an attending physician at Klinikum Leverkusen, an academic teaching hospital of the University of Cologne. Alongside her role as Head of the High-Risk Pregnancy Centre and the Labour & Delivery Suite, in 2008 she joined the Department of Gynaecological Surgery, collaborating closely with the Departments of Urology and Coloproctology to help establish an interdisciplinary centre for women’s incontinence and pelvic floor disorders. Her background includes advanced laparoscopic gynaecological surgery such as ovarian cyst and tumour removal, total and supracervical laparoscopic hysterectomy, myomectomy, endometriosis surgery, and adhesiolysis.

Over time, Dr. Oksuz’s work has increasingly evolved toward integrative, preventive, and functional medicine, with a strong focus on the analysis and treatment of hormonal changes across the lifespan. Her current practice centres on personalised, symptom-specific care, optimising health and quality of life through precision hormone therapy, including the appropriate use of bio-identical hormones, alongside lifestyle and preventive strategies. Her approach supports not only women (especially in menstrual irregularities, perimenopause, and menopause), but also addresses hormonal health in men where clinically indicated.

She is currently enrolled in an Executive Master of Science in Longevity (EMSc Longevity) and in a Certified Longevity Physician Programme, further strengthening her evidence-based focus on prevention, healthspan optimisation, and long-term wellbeing.

A key influence in shaping this integrative endocrine focus has been her training under Professor Römmler (Munich), who founded one of the early hormone centres in Germany and pioneered the clinical use of natural hormone therapies since the 1980s.

In Germany, specialist training in obstetrics and gynaecology includes the diagnosis and treatment of the full spectrum of breast diseases. Dr. Oksuz trained from the outset in academic teaching hospitals with large, certified breast centres and is an expert in the diagnosis and management of breast conditions, including breast cancer. She continues to perform breast ultrasound herself and, when needed, carries out ultrasound-guided biopsies. She also stays up to date with the evolving evidence base on hormone replacement therapy and breast cancer risk.
