Assoc. Prof. Cevper Ersöz, MD was born in Bursa in 1981. He completed his pre-university education in Balıkesir. Having completed his medical education at Istanbul Faculty of Medicine in 2006, Dr. Ersöz received the title of Urology Specialist after completing his urology residency at Bezmialem Vakıf University Faculty of Medicine in 2012. 

 During his residency training, he spent time at the Department of Urology of the University of Michigan, United States, in 2011, gaining clinical experience in advanced laparoscopy, robotic surgery and endourology.

 Following the completion of his compulsory service as a Urology Specialist at Şırnak İdil State Hospital in 2014, he worked as a Urology Specialist at Giresun Dr. A. İlhan Özdemir State Hospital between 2014 and 2015.

He received the title of Associate Professor at the same institution in 2023 and continued his academic and clinical activities there until 2024. He currently continues his clinical and academic work at Medipol Acıbadem Regional Hospital and Medipol University. In 2025, he was at Westmoreland Street Hospital, UCL, London as an observer in advanced urological oncology robotic surgery.

 Starting from his residency years and continuing into the post-specialization period, he has been particularly interested in urological oncology and endoscopic surgery. He has performed more than 10,000 procedures with laparoscopic, robotic and endoscopic surgical techniques. He has advanced clinical and surgical experience particularly in his areas of interest: robotic and open surgery in the treatment of prostate cancer; robotic, laparoscopic and open surgery in the surgical treatment of kidney and ureteral tumors; endoscopic surgery for the early stages of bladder cancer and radical surgery for its advanced stages; and the treatment of all stages of testicular cancer. Endourological surgeries for conditions such as prostate diseases and kidney stones are also among his areas of interest.

 The work of Assoc. Prof. Cevper Ersöz, who has more than 40 scientific articles in national and international peer-reviewed journals and more than 10 book chapters and reviews, has received more than 1600 citations in the international literature.
