Assoc. Prof. M.D. Tuğsan Ballı Reviews

My 82-year-old mother, Fatma, had a sudden, terrifying episode where she couldn't move her left side. Rushed to Acibadem Adana, we met Dr. Tuğsan Ballı in the emergency room. He explained, with incredible calmness, that she had a clot in a critical brain artery. He performed an emergency thrombectomy right then. His hands were steady, his focus absolute. He didn't just treat the clot; he treated our family's fear. Two days later, she was squeezing my hand with that same left side. He gave us back our matriarch. Words cannot capture our gratitude for his skill and profound humanity in that crisis.

Our 7-year-old son, Deniz, was diagnosed with a complex vascular malformation near his kidney. Multiple doctors described risky open surgeries. Dr. Ballı proposed a minimally invasive approach. He knelt to talk to Deniz about 'using a tiny camera to fix the sleepy roads in his tummy.' The procedure was precise, like micro-sculpture. No large scar, just a tiny dot. At the follow-up, Deniz showed Dr. Ballı his dinosaur drawing, calling him 'the fix-it doctor.' Dr. Ballı's ability to blend world-class interventional skill with genuine, gentle care for a frightened child is a rare and precious gift. We feel he navigated our son's veins with the same care he navigated our worries.

I'm a 45-year-old teacher with a history of uterine fibroids causing debilitating pain and heavy bleeding. I dreaded a hysterectomy. Dr. Ballı thoroughly explained uterine artery embolization as an alternative. He didn't rush; he drew diagrams. The procedure itself was remarkably straightforward—mild discomfort, not pain. The real miracle was the follow-up months later. The fibroids had shrunk dramatically. My life is transformed; no more pain, no more planning my life around my cycle. Dr. Ballı provided a sophisticated solution that preserved my organ and my quality of life. His expertise in targeted, organ-sparing treatment is exceptional.

Following a serious car accident, I had a lacerated liver with persistent bleeding. I was stable but in a dangerous limbo. Dr. Ballı reviewed my scans and identified a specific bleeding vessel. He performed an angiogram and a super-selective embolization, describing it as 'placing a precise cork in the leak.' The detail was astonishing—he blocked only the offending vessel, preserving the rest of my liver. In recovery, he checked on me personally, explaining the physiology of healing. This wasn't just emergency stopgap care; it was definitive, elegant problem-solving with long-term health in mind. He turned a potential disaster into a controlled, successful intervention.
