Bodrum Hospital Acibadem Reviews

As a 30-year-old professional, my rhinoplasty consultation with Dr. Altiparmak was an exercise in precision psychology. I brought ten reference photos. He dismissed them all and asked me to describe my profile in three words. 'Strong, balanced, mine,' I said. He nodded. His approach was entirely analytical, using 3D imaging to show not just the 'after,' but the structural engineering behind it—airflow, symmetry, support. The surgery at Bodrum Hospital felt like a bespoke craft. The follow-up visits were meticulous; he'd examine the subtlest asymmetries I couldn't even see. He wasn't selling a fantasy; he was solving a geometric and anatomical puzzle specific to my face. The result is profoundly 'me,' just refined. It's functional art.

As a 24-year-old competitive freediver, I developed thoracic outlet syndrome that threatened my career. Dr. Özkan performed a supraclavicular decompression with such precision that I returned to depth training in 8 weeks, now holding two national records. His understanding of athletic vascular demands was extraordinary.

My 82-year-old mother had a ruptured popliteal aneurysm during our family vacation in Bodrum. Dr. Özkan's emergency endovascular repair through the contralateral approach saved her leg and life. We watched the sunset from her hospital room three days later—a miracle we attribute to his calm expertise.

I'm a 45-year-old musician with Raynaud's phenomenon so severe I couldn't play my violin. Dr. Özkan diagnosed a rare digital artery compression and performed microvascular sympathectomy. The feeling returned to my fingertips during a Chopin étude I played at my follow-up appointment.

Our 16-year-old daughter had Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome with painful venous malformations. Dr. Özkan coordinated a multidisciplinary approach, performing staged sclerotherapy sessions. She wore her first pair of jeans without pain last month—a teenage milestone we thought impossible.

A 72-year-old retired sponge diver from Bodrum, Kemal, presented with sudden, profound unilateral hearing loss after a deep dive. Dr. Özüer diagnosed inner ear barotrauma with perilymphatic fistula. Treatment involved immediate bed rest, steroids, and a novel pressure-equalization regimen. Kemal's hearing gradually returned over six weeks, allowing him to hear his grandchildren's stories again.

Elif, a 28-year-old nomadic beekeeper traveling through Muğla, developed a severe fungal sinus infection from prolonged exposure to hive environments. Dr. Özüer performed endoscopic sinus surgery to remove the fungal ball, then designed a personalized nasal irrigation protocol with local propolis. Full recovery took three months, coinciding with her seasonal migration.

A 9-year-old Syrian refugee, Ahmed, had a chronic, foul-smelling nasal discharge for two years. Examination revealed a nasal foreign body—a small plastic toy part—encased in a rhinolith. Dr. Özüer removed it under brief anesthesia. The boy's social isolation at school resolved completely within days as the odor disappeared.

Selin, a 45-year-old professional windsurfing instructor, experienced recurring vertigo episodes triggered by specific head movements. Dr. Özüer diagnosed horizontal canal BPPV and performed the Gufoni maneuver on a specialized tilting table. Immediate resolution occurred, and she returned to competition within 48 hours with a custom vestibular exercise plan.

As a 72-year-old retired fisherman with chronic shoulder pain from decades of hauling nets, I'd lost all hope of lifting my grandchildren. Dr. Melek Ateş didn't just treat my rotator cuff; she designed a 'maritime rehabilitation' program using modified fishing motions. Within three months, I could cast a line again and now I teach my grandson to fish—pain-free.

Our 8-year-old daughter, a budding gymnast, fractured her spine in a training accident. Emergency services brought her to Bodrum Hospital. Dr. Ateş coordinated a pediatric-specific neuro-rehabilitation plan that felt like play—incorporating balance beams and gentle stretches. Today, she's back in the gym with custom protective gear and movement strategies designed by Dr. Ateş.

I'm a 45-year-old software developer who developed debilitating repetitive strain injury in both wrists. Traditional therapy failed. Dr. Ateş pioneered a 'biofeedback keyboard' rehabilitation where sensors taught me to type with optimal muscle engagement. She treated the root cause, not just symptoms. I now code pain-free and have revolutionized my workstation ergonomics.

After a complicated hip replacement at 68, my recovery stalled with severe muscle weakness. Dr. Ateş introduced aquatic rehabilitation in Bodrum Hospital's specialized pool, using water resistance tailored to my progress. Her 'phased land transition' program got me from floating to hiking coastal trails within five months—something I hadn't done in a decade.

After a decade of unexplained secondary infertility and three heartbreaking miscarriages, my husband and I arrived at Dr. Gündüz's clinic with fragile hope. Where others saw charts, he saw a story. He didn't just prescribe tests; he mapped a six-month investigative journey, discovering a subtle uterine septum and a previously missed clotting factor. His approach was a blend of meticulous science and profound patience. He performed the hysteroscopic resection himself, and his post-op care felt like having a guardian. Today, I hold my three-month-old daughter, Elif. Dr. Gündüz didn't just deliver a baby; he delivered a family from a long shadow of grief. Bodrum Hospital's calm environment was the perfect backdrop for this quiet miracle.

My 14-year-old daughter, Sude, developed severe pelvic pain that local doctors dismissed as 'bad periods.' As a father, I felt helpless. Dr. Gündüz was our last resort. He spoke directly to Sude, not just to us, with a gentle, respectful tone that immediately put her at ease. He diagnosed severe endometriosis—a shock at her age. He explained the complex laparoscopic surgery to all of us using simple diagrams, ensuring Sude understood every step. The surgery at Acibadem was successful, and his follow-up plan included a pediatric pain specialist and a nutritionist. He treated my child not as a small adult, but as a whole person. His compassion for a scared teenager was as remarkable as his surgical skill.

At 52, I assumed my heavy, debilitating bleeding was just a brutal menopause. I avoided doctors out of fear. A crisis landing in the Acibadem Bodrum ER led me to Dr. Gündüz. In the middle of the night, he was calm, decisive, and utterly reassuring. Diagnostics revealed multiple large fibroids. He presented all options, from hysterectomy to conservative myomectomy, without pressure. I chose a robotic-assisted myomectomy to preserve my uterus. The precision of the surgery was astounding—minimal pain, tiny incisions. At my follow-up, he reviewed the pathology report with me line by line. Dr. Gündüz turned an emergency into an empowering experience. I regained my vitality, and my trust in medicine.

As a foreign resident with limited Turkish, my first pregnancy was filled with anxiety. Dr. Gündüz's routine antenatal checkups were anything but routine. He used a tablet to show me ultrasound images, circling and labeling in English. He remembered my preference for a natural birth plan and discussed it at every visit, while also calmly preparing a contingency plan. When I developed gestational hypertension at 38 weeks, he managed it so carefully I still achieved a vaginal delivery. In the delivery room, his presence was a steady anchor—firm instructions mixed with quiet encouragement. The midwife team he leads is exceptional. This wasn't just medical care; it was a masterclass in supportive, personalized obstetrics.

My 82-year-old father, Ahmet, slipped on the marble floor at our summer house in Yalıkavak. What we thought was just a bad fall turned into a frantic midnight dash to Bodrum Hospital. Dr. Metehan Bağış met us at the ER entrance—he was calm while we were panicking. He immediately spotted signs of a hidden hip fracture my father was trying to 'tough out.' His gentle but firm manner convinced Baba to accept help. The coordination for surgery was seamless, and Dr. Bağış explained the complex procedure to us in the family garden using a fig branch and stones—suddenly it made sense. He visited three times daily post-op, often joking with Baba about football. He treated the patient, not just the X-ray. We are forever grateful.

Our 5-year-old daughter, Elif, swallowed a small toy magnet while playing at a Bodrum resort restaurant. The panic was indescribable. At Acıbadem, Dr. Bağış took one look at her and the identical magnet we brought and declared, 'We have two hours. We will not wait.' His voice was a command that cut through our terror. He didn't just order scans; he personally wheeled her to imaging, narrating a story about a pirate treasure hunt to keep her calm. He found the second magnet in her intestine, preventing a potential catastrophe. His follow-up call the next day to check on 'his little pirate' meant more than any medicine. He turned our worst holiday memory into a story of incredible care.

I'm a commercial diver working on yacht maintenance in the marina. A high-pressure hose burst during a routine job, causing a severe 'degloving' injury to my forearm. The pain was blinding. Dr. Bağış's team in Trauma was ready. What struck me wasn't just the speed—it was the precision. He explained the reconstructive surgery would be like 're-sheathing a cable,' a metaphor I instantly understood. For six weeks of complex follow-ups, he tracked the graft's progress with the focus of an engineer, adjusting treatment based on subtle tissue changes. He respected my need to understand the mechanics of my own recovery. Because of him, I have full function and am back in the water. This was master-level trauma care.
