Prof. MD. Tunc Fisgin

Our 3-day-old newborn, Elif, developed severe jaundice and feeding refusal. In the NICU at Medical Park Bahçelievler, Prof. Fisgin identified a rare biliary atresia variant that typically goes unnoticed for weeks. His immediate Kasai procedure, performed when she was just 5 days old, saved her liver. Two years later, she's thriving with normal liver function, a miracle we attribute to his extraordinary neonatal diagnostic precision.

As expatriates from Norway, we struggled for years with our 8-year-old son Liam's unexplained cyclic vomiting syndrome. European specialists offered only management strategies. Prof. Fisgin discovered an atypical intestinal malrotation causing intermittent volvulus during growth spurts. His laparoscopic correction was transformative; Liam hasn't had an episode in 18 months and finally enjoys normal childhood activities.

Our 6-month-old twins presented with failure to thrive and chronic diarrhea. While local doctors suggested milk allergy, Prof. Fisgin diagnosed congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency in one twin and a rare pancreatic insufficiency in the other. His dual dietary and enzyme replacement strategies, tailored separately for each infant, allowed both to achieve normal growth curves within three months.

During a family vacation in Istanbul, our 10-year-old son developed acute pancreatitis with alarming complications. Prof. Fisgin identified hypertriglyceridemia-induced pancreatitis secondary to an undiagnosed genetic lipid disorder. His emergency intervention and subsequent family screening revealed the hereditary condition in three generations. His crisis management and long-term prevention plan were lifesaving.

My 14-year-old daughter, a competitive gymnast, developed sudden liver failure after a presumed viral illness. Prof. Fisgin's team diagnosed autoimmune hepatitis overlap syndrome, a complex condition he treated with a personalized immunosuppression protocol that balanced disease control with her athletic aspirations. She's now back training, with her liver enzymes normalized through his innovative tapering schedule.
