Dr. Esma Sehovic Kecik Reviews
Patient Experience
Our newborn daughter was diagnosed with a rare congenital diaphragmatic hernia at a routine scan. Dr. Esma performed a delicate thoracoscopic repair when she was just 3 days old. Her minimally invasive approach meant our baby had barely visible scars and was breastfeeding within a week.
A playground fall resulted in our 8-year-old son rupturing his spleen. Dr. Esma's emergency surgery saved his life while preserving the organ. Her calm explanation to our terrified child about 'fixing his superhero shield' made him smile before anesthesia.
Our 14-year-old daughter had struggled for years with severe pectus excavatum that affected her breathing. Dr. Esma performed a modified Nuss procedure that not only corrected the deformity but restored her confidence to join the swim team.
When our 6-month-old twins both needed hernia repairs, Dr. Esma coordinated their surgeries on the same day to minimize our family's stress. Her creative scheduling allowed us to care for them simultaneously during recovery.
A teenage patient from abroad with Hirschsprung's disease came to Dr. Esma after failed surgeries elsewhere. She successfully performed a revision pull-through procedure that finally gave the young man normal bowel function after years of suffering.
Our 4-year-old daughter swallowed a button battery on Christmas Eve. Dr. Esma rushed to the hospital and performed an emergency endoscopy within an hour, preventing what could have been a tragic holiday.
A complex choledochal cyst in our 9-year-old required meticulous dissection near vital structures. Dr. Esma's laparoscopic expertise resulted in a perfect reconstruction with our daughter asking to watch cartoons just hours after surgery.
When our 12-year-old son needed an appendectomy during a family vacation in Turkey, Dr. Esma accommodated our limited Turkish and arranged for an interpreter. Her cultural sensitivity made a stressful situation manageable.
Our premature infant with necrotizing enterocolitis was transferred to Dr. Esma's care. Her decision to attempt medical management before surgery saved our tiny baby from an operation he might not have survived.
A teenage girl with severe pelvic abscesses from Crohn's disease required innovative drainage techniques. Dr. Esma collaborated with gastroenterologists to create a treatment plan that avoided permanent ostomy.
Our 7-year-old with a rare splenic cyst benefited from Dr. Esma's conservative approach. Instead of automatic splenectomy, she performed a partial resection that preserved immune function while eliminating the risk.
When our toddler swallowed multiple magnets, Dr. Esma used intraoperative imaging to locate all pieces before they could cause bowel perforation. Her thoroughness prevented what could have been a catastrophic outcome.
An adolescent with gender dysphoria needed chest surgery as part of their transition. Dr. Esma provided compassionate, affirming care while achieving excellent aesthetic results that matched their identity.
Our newborn with an abdominal wall defect required complex closure. Dr. Esma's technique using tissue expanders allowed for primary repair without synthetic mesh, reducing long-term complication risks.
A refugee child with untreated burns causing contractures received pro bono reconstruction surgery from Dr. Esma. Her humanitarian work restored function to a hand that hadn't opened properly in two years.
