Specialist training
I began my specialist training in gynaecology and obstetrics in 2013 at UMC Maribor and completed it with distinction in 2018.
Since then I have worked as a specialist in gynaecology and obstetrics at UMC Maribor, in the Department of Gynaecological Oncology and Breast Oncology.
I have taken further training abroad in gynaecological ultrasound and oncological surgery.
Experience
I graduated from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Ljubljana in 2010 and then joined a volunteer humanitarian mission to the village of Majiwa in Kenya with the Department of Tropical Medicine. In 2011 I completed my internship at UMC Ljubljana and then worked as a resident doctor in the Department of Abdominal Surgery there.
I have worked at UMC Maribor since 2013, and since 2018 as a specialist in the Department of Gynaecological Oncology and Breast Oncology. I am an assistant at the Faculty of Medicine in Maribor and a lecturer at the Faculty of Health Sciences. My research as a student was recognised with the Prešeren faculty award. In 2022 I received my doctorate from the Faculty of Medicine in Maribor.
Research
My research focuses on gynaecological cancers and precancerous changes of the reproductive organs. Internationally I served on the Slovenian trainee section of EBCOG (European Board and College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology). I am currently an active member of ENYGO (European Network of Young Gynae Oncologists) and ESGO (European Society of Gynaecological Oncology).

Both lectures are available in full on YouTube, in Slovenian.
Every one of us reads a diagnosis of cancer in our own way. Thanks to how responsive, available, professional and thorough you were, and to a great deal of kindness, I can say with a smile that it is behind me and everything is fine.
Dr. Cokan, thank you sincerely. May this way of working stay with you throughout your career.
I came to dr. Cokan completely by chance, after I was left without a gynaecologist. The first handshake was enough to convince me. He is an excellent gynaecologist and an outstanding sonographer, so I recommend him to everyone. His precision and professionalism are reassuring, and he is a warm and pleasant person who takes real care over every examination.
