Spec. MD. Ayse Aslan

I was on vacation from Germany when I developed severe abdominal pain. As an 82-year-old with a history of heart issues, I was terrified. Dr. Aslan at Medical Park Antalya didn't just treat me as another tourist, she spent an hour reviewing my German medical records with a translator, discovered a medication interaction my home doctor missed, and personally coordinated with the cardiology department. Her calm demeanor during what turned out to be a gallbladder emergency made all the difference. She even followed up with me via video call after I returned home. Not just treatment, true international care.

Our 7-year-old daughter developed mysterious recurrent fevers during our relocation to Antalya. Pediatricians were stumped. Dr. Aslan approached it like a detective novel, she created a symptom timeline chart, tested for Mediterranean-specific pathogens others hadn't considered, and discovered it was brucellosis from unpasteurized dairy. What impressed me most was how she engaged our daughter directly, explaining everything with drawings of 'bad germs' and 'superhero white blood cells.' She turned a frightening experience into an educational adventure. Three months later, our daughter still draws pictures for 'Dr. Ayse.'

As a 45-year-old software developer with no previous health concerns, my 'routine checkup' with Dr. Aslan turned into a life-saving intervention. Instead of the usual five-minute visit, she noticed subtle inconsistencies in my reflexes during the neurological exam, something completely unrelated to my reason for visiting. She ordered specific imaging that revealed a small, asymptomatic brain aneurysm. Her meticulous approach led to a minimally invasive procedure I wouldn't have sought otherwise. She didn't just check boxes; she saw patterns others would have missed. Forever grateful for her obsessive attention to detail.

Following complex abdominal surgery for Crohn's disease complications, my recovery stalled with persistent inflammation. Dr. Aslan rejected the standard protocol and designed a personalized treatment matrix combining targeted medication, dietary modifications based on Turkish medicinal food science, and stress-reduction techniques specific to chronic illness patients. She didn't just manage symptoms, she rebuilt my system. During our biweekly follow-ups, she'd adjust the plan based on minute changes I reported. Two years later, I'm in remission she calls 'actively maintained peace.' Her approach isn't medicine as maintenance; it's medicine as reconstruction.
