Adana Hospital Acibadem

Our 5-year-old daughter had recurring tonsillitis every few months, leaving her exhausted. Dr. Erdoğan, during a routine checkup, noticed her adenoids were also problematic and suggested a sleep study, which revealed moderate apnea. She explained the complex surgery (adenotonsillectomy) to us using a stuffed bear and simple drawings. The surgery at Acibadem was flawless. What stood out was the follow-up. She called us personally that evening to check in. At our post-op, she had a small 'bravery certificate' for our daughter. It's been a year now, no infections, and she sleeps like a log. We drove from Mersin specifically for her expertise.

I'm a 40-year-old teacher who suddenly lost hearing in my right ear overnight with intense vertigo. I went to the ER at Acibadem in a panic, unable to walk straight. Dr. Erdoğan was on call. She immediately ordered an MRI to rule out acoustic neuroma, which was negative, and diagnosed a severe case of sudden sensorineural hearing loss. She said time was critical and started me on intratympanic steroid injections right there in the ER clinic. The procedure was uncomfortable but she talked me through every second. She followed up with me daily for a week via the hospital portal. I regained about 70% of my hearing. She turned a potential disability into a manageable condition with decisive, urgent action.

For years, I had a persistent, foul-smelling discharge from my nose and chronic headaches. Multiple ENTs elsewhere prescribed antibiotics with temporary relief. Dr. Erdoğan, during what I thought would be a routine sinusitis visit, used a detailed nasal endoscopy and then ordered a specific cone-beam CT. She discovered a complex, previously missed fungal ball (aspergilloma) in my maxillary sinus, eroded near the orbital floor. She mapped out a meticulous FESS (Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery) plan, explaining the risks to my eye. The surgery was longer than expected due to the dense fungal material, but she removed it all. The follow-up care involved daily nasal irrigations with a special protocol she designed. The smell vanished immediately. Her detective work and surgical precision ended a decade of misery.

Dr. dr Çisem Gündüz provided exceptional care for my bariatric surgery condition. The treatment was personalized and effective.

My 82-year-old father, who has dementia, developed a severe ear infection that made him agitated and withdrawn. Dr. Erdoğan's approach was nothing short of miraculous. She didn't just examine him; she knelt to his eye level, spoke in soft, clear Turkish, and held his hand throughout. She diagnosed a fungal infection complicated by impacted wax deep in the canal. Her nurse assisted with a gentle micro-suction procedure that took 30 minutes of immense patience. She prescribed a special antifungal drop and drew clear picture instructions for our caregiver. Two weeks later, he's listening to his old radio programs again. Her compassion was as healing as her medical skill.
