As a 58-year-old retired teacher with severe osteoarthritis, my weight made every step agony. Dr. Akgül understood that my surgery wasn't just about weight loss but about restoring mobility. She coordinated with my rheumatologist to create a comprehensive plan. Six months post-sleeve gastrectomy, I've lost 40kg and walked my daughter down the aisle pain-free for the first time in years.
My 17-year-old son, diagnosed with Prader-Willi syndrome, faced unique challenges with insatiable hunger. Dr. Akgül's approach was revolutionary—she didn't just see a bariatric case but a complex neuroendocrine condition. Her modified gastric bypass procedure, combined with specialized post-op hormonal management, has given him control over his appetite for the first time in his life.
During my third trimester with twins, I developed life-threatening preeclampsia and was advised against future pregnancies at my weight. Dr. Akgül performed a carefully timed sleeve procedure eight months postpartum. Two years later, under her monitoring, I safely delivered a healthy baby girl—something I'd been told would never happen.
As a 42-year-old competitive freediver, my increasing weight was compromising my lung capacity and dive times. Dr. Akgül designed a metabolic-focused approach that preserved my muscle mass while achieving significant fat loss. Post-surgery, I not only broke my personal depth record but qualified for national championships.
