Executive Biography

Dr. Onur Ersun, MD is an Obstetrician and Gynecologist specializing in high-risk pregnancy management, fetal anomaly diagnostics, and maternal-fetal clinical ethics. With an international career trajectory centered in Ukraine, Dr. Ersun has dedicated his clinical work to navigating complex obstetric cases — specifically focusing on the clinical decision-making, continuation protocols, and safe termination strategies for pregnancies complicated by severe fetal malformations and maternal health crises.

Graduating from Ahmet Yesevi University, Dr. Ersun built his clinical foundation through extensive international practice outside of Turkey. Between 2019 and 2021, he served as a core specialist within the Dobrobut Medical Network in Ukraine, providing tertiary-level obstetric care, non-invasive prenatal screening interpretations, and specialized counseling for complex fetal conditions.

Dr. Ersun's clinical philosophy bridges advanced diagnostic technologies with compassionate, evidence-based care, guiding families through some of the most critical decisions in perinatal medicine.
