My Resume

Barış Çaynak was born in 1974 in Ankara. In 1991, he was admitted to Marmara University Faculty of Medicine with the dream of becoming a heart surgeon.

After graduating from medical school, he earned the title of Cardiovascular Surgeon in 2004 at Florence Nightingale Hospital, one of the largest heart centers in Turkey. That same year, he went to the United States to receive training in robotic surgery. In 2007, he worked at the OLV Clinic in Belgium, focusing on endoscopic valve surgeries. Since then, he has been performing minimally invasive heart surgeries using robotic and endoscopic techniques.

In March 2019, he performed Turkey’s first totally endoscopic quadruple bypass surgery. Since that landmark operation, he has been performing all of his bypass surgeries using minimally invasive methods.

He served for six years as a board member of the Turkish Society of Cardiovascular Surgery. He is also a member of EACTS (European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery), the Turkish Society of Cardiology, and ISMICS (International Society for Minimally Invasive Cardiothoracic Surgery). He provides both national and international training in the field of minimally invasive bypass and valve surgery.
