Patient Experience
As a 72-year-old retired teacher with a history of hypertension, I considered my annual check-up a formality. Dr. Sezgin, however, listened to my vague complaint about 'occasional fluttering' with intense focus. He insisted on a detailed electrophysiology study, against my protests that it was just old age. He discovered and successfully ablated a dangerous, asymptomatic atrial flutter focus that could have caused a major stroke. His approach wasn't rushed; he explained the electrical pathways of my heart as if teaching a masterclass. He didn't just treat a patient; he educated a person, potentially saving my life with his relentless curiosity during a routine visit.
I was a tourist from Germany, cycling near Adana when a crushing chest pain struck. Rushed to Acibadem Adana's ER, I was terrified, alone, and unable to speak Turkish. Dr. Sezgin was on call. He diagnosed a severe LAD artery blockage (the 'widow-maker') within minutes. He calmed me in fluent German, explaining the urgent need for a primary PCI. In the cath lab, his technique was breathtakingly precise; he placed a stent under challenging conditions with zero complications. His post-op follow-up was daily, even coordinating my repatriation. He turned a potential tragedy abroad into a story of miraculous, compassionate, and hyper-efficient emergency care.
For years, I managed my heart failure with medication, but my quality of life was declining. Dr. Sezgin proposed a complex surgery to implant a CRT-D device and perform a concomitant mitral valve repair—a daunting prospect. What set him apart was the 'war room' preparation. A week before surgery, he gathered the anesthesiologist, electrophysiology nurse, and perfusionist with me present, walking through every contingency using a 3D model of my heart. The surgery was long but flawless. At my one-year follow-up, my ejection fraction had improved dramatically. Dr. Sezgin's mastery lies in his orchestration of a team and his belief that a patient is part of that team, not just a subject.

I was rushed to Acibadem Adana after a severe asthma attack that my usual inhaler couldn't control. Dr. Alper Fındıkcioğlu was on emergency duty and immediately recognized it was status asthmaticus. He didn't just treat the attack; he spent an hour with my family explaining the difference between rescue and controller medications. His calm demeanor during the crisis was everything. He followed up personally for three days until my peak flow returned to normal. This wasn't just emergency care—it was an education that probably saved my life.
My 7-year-old daughter had been coughing for months, misdiagnosed as recurrent bronchitis. Dr. Fındıkcioğlu did something remarkable during her first visit: he got down to her eye level and showed her cartoons of how lungs work. He diagnosed exercise-induced bronchoconstriction with a simple spirometry test she thought was a 'blowing game.' His approach with children is magical—he prescribed a treatment plan involving 'superhero breaths' before sports. For the first time in a year, she played football without coughing. We've found not just a pulmonologist, but a pediatric lung whisperer.
As a 72-year-old with COPD and recent pneumonia, I expected another rushed hospital visit. Instead, Dr. Fındıkcioğlu conducted my follow-up like a detective solving a mystery. He noticed subtle changes in my fingernails that I hadn't—early clubbing—and ordered tests revealing mild pulmonary fibrosis alongside my COPD. What impressed me most was his coordination: he personally consulted with my cardiologist and arranged a combined rehabilitation plan. He doesn't just treat lungs; he treats the whole breathing ecosystem of an elderly body. His handwritten exercise regimen is now my daily ritual.
I'm a 45-year-old teacher who came for a routine checkup after mild COVID, expecting a quick clearance. Dr. Fındıkcioğlu detected something alarming in my routine spirometry—a pattern he called 'consistent small airway obstruction.' He ordered a CT that revealed early-stage bronchiectasis I never suspected. The complexity came in distinguishing post-COVID changes from underlying disease. He created a color-coded management chart with medication schedules, airway clearance techniques, and infection warning signs. His approach transformed a simple follow-up into early intervention that may preserve my lung function for decades. He doesn't just read tests; he reads the future of your lungs.

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.
