Prof. M.D. H. Armağan Arıcan Reviews

As a 28-year-old competitive sailor, discovering a rare spinal cord tumor was devastating. Dr. Arıcan designed a highly targeted stereotactic radiosurgery plan that spared my critical nerve function. His team used motion-tracking technology to account for my breathing during treatment. I was back on my boat training within six weeks, with no neurological deficits, and recently placed third in a national regatta.

My 82-year-old mother with advanced Alzheimer's developed painful bone metastases from breast cancer. Dr. Arıcan proposed a single-session palliative radiation treatment, explaining the risks and minimal burden with profound compassion. He coordinated with her geriatrician and our family to ensure comfort. The pain subsided dramatically, allowing her final months to be peaceful and dignified at home with us.

I'm a 45-year-old chef who ignored a persistent throat issue. Diagnosed with stage IV oropharyngeal cancer, I was terrified. Dr. Arıcan pioneered a combined immunotherapy and precision radiation protocol to preserve my swallowing and taste. He even consulted on nutritional strategies during treatment. Today, I'm cancer-free and have reopened my restaurant, my sense of taste fully intact—a miracle for my profession.

Our 7-year-old daughter was diagnosed with a retinoblastoma while we were vacationing in Bodrum. Dr. Arıcan immediately collaborated with pediatric oncologists abroad, facilitating a proton beam therapy referral while managing preliminary care. His calm guidance through the international logistics and emotional support for our family was beyond his medical duty. Our daughter is now in remission and back in school.
