Patient Experience
For years, I struggled with severe hidradenitis suppurativa—a complex, painful condition that required multiple surgeries. Dr. Öznur didn't offer a quick fix. She mapped my flare-ups for months, designing a combined approach of targeted biologic injections and minimalist surgical drainage techniques to preserve tissue. Her approach was methodical and empathetic; she celebrated small victories in my healing journey. The difference isn't just in my skin's improvement, but in regaining my confidence. She manages complex chronic disease with the strategic mind of a general and the heart of a healer.
As an 82-year-old with a mysterious, persistent rash across my shoulders that three other clinics dismissed as 'old age skin,' Dr. Öznur was my last hope. She didn't just glance; she examined with a magnifying glass, asked about my gardening habits and laundry detergent, and diagnosed a rare contact dermatitis from a new fertilizer. Her treatment plan was gentle for my fragile skin, and she called me personally two days later to check on me. At Ankara Hospital Acibadem, she treats seniors with investigative rigor and profound respect.
Our 4-year-old developed severe, weeping eczema after a beach vacation—it was a weekend emergency. Dr. Bahar Öznur met us at the clinic with such calm energy. She got down on her knees to talk to our terrified daughter, showed her the 'special light' on the dermatoscope, and turned the examination into a game. She prescribed a tailored regimen that avoided strong steroids for young skin. The follow-up video consultation was a lifesaver when we had questions. She's a pediatric dermatology wizard who understands that treating children means treating the whole family's anxiety.
I came for a routine mole check, but Dr. Öznur noticed a subtle, irregular patch on my scalp I'd never seen. Her tone shifted to focused seriousness. She performed a precise biopsy the same day, explaining each step. It turned out to be an early-stage melanoma. Her swift action and the coordinated surgery at Ankara Hospital Acibadem, which she personally oversaw, were undoubtedly life-saving. This wasn't just a checkup; it was a masterclass in vigilant, preventative care where her expertise turned a standard visit into a critical intervention.
