Who is Dr.Ä°brahim Ural?
I was born on October 21, 1974, in Şanlıurfa, Turkey. After completing my primary, middle, and high school education there, I received my medical degree from Istanbul University, Istanbul Faculty of Medicine in 1999. Between 2000 and 2005, I completed my specialization in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Istanbul University, Istanbul Faculty of Medicine.
As a specialist in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, I have worked at the BayrampaÅŸa Municipality Disabled Center, Elazığ Military Hospital, and Medical Park Fatih Hospital. After serving as a faculty member at Istanbul BahçeÅŸehir University Faculty of Medicine, I am currently a faculty member and head of the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Istanbul Beykent University Faculty of Medicine. Additionally, I continue to serve as an instructor in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Istanbul Aydın University Faculty of Medicine.
Areas of interest
Stem cell
Stem cell and non-stem cell biological therapies have recently garnered significant attention, and I am one of the first and most frequent practitioners of these treatments in Turkey. I also continue to serve as an instructor and speaker at many conferences on this topic.
The Treatment of Spinal Pain with Interventional Injection Techniques
The management of spinal pain through various interventional injection techniques is an area of particular interest to me. I continue to enhance my expertise in this field by participating in various post-specialization training sessions, whether as a speaker, instructor, or participant.
The Treatment of Joint Pain: Traditional Physical Therapy and PRP Injections
For joint pain, both traditional physical therapy methods and various intra-articular injections like PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) are standard treatment options. I have administered countless treatments in this area over the years and continue to follow up with my patients.
Temporomandibular Joint Diseases:
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders are another area I have been evaluating and treating patients for many years. I have authored several scientific articles, written book chapters, and delivered presentations at educational meetings on this topic as well.
Vertigo
Vertigo (dizziness) has been a distinct area of rehabilitation that I have focused on since the early days of my specialization training. I have published articles in various national and international scientific journals and have also served as editor and chapter author of a book titled " Vertigoya Olgular Eşliğinde Multidisipliner Bakış" through Case Studies. My work in this field is ongoing.
Neurological Diseases and Rehabilitation
The clinics where I have provided services have specifically focused on the treatment and rehabilitation of conditions like hemiplegia (stroke), paraplegia or quadriplegia (paralysis), cerebral palsy, and other neurological disorders, which has enhanced my experience in these areas. As the founder of the Istanbul BayrampaÅŸa Municipality Disability and Physical Therapy Center, I have gained further expertise in these fields. The treatments I use and recommend for my patients include standard rehabilitation methods, biological therapies like stem cell and exosome treatments, and new technologies such as spinal cord stimulators. Spinal cord stimulators, with advancements in technology, have started to become effective for many paralyzed patients. These treatments also provide comfort for patients dealing with chronic pain and neurogenic bladder conditions.
