Patient Experience
I was hiking near Bodrum when a rockfall caused a severe compound fracture in my leg. By the time I reached Acibadem, I was in shock. Dr. Hekmatjou didn't just treat the wound—he managed my entire trauma response with astonishing calm. What stood out was how he explained the sequential surgical plan while simultaneously directing his team to stabilize my vitals. He performed the initial debridement himself, then coordinated with orthopedics for the reconstruction. His follow-up visits felt like strategic debriefings; he'd analyze my healing progress like a puzzle, adjusting pain management and mobility protocols with precision. This wasn't just emergency medicine—it was trauma orchestration.
My 4-year-old son swallowed a small lithium battery from a toy. The panic was indescribable. Dr. Hekmatjou met us at the ambulance bay, already having reviewed the toy's model from our frantic call. While comforting my son with a silly story about a 'button that needed to come back up,' he was orchestrating a rapid endoscopy team. He explained the chemical burn timeline to us in clear, terrifyingly honest terms that somehow made us trust him completely. The procedure was successful, but what I'll never forget is how he returned two hours post-op just to show us the retrieved battery in a specimen jar—'the culprit,' he called it—and spent 20 minutes teaching my son (through puppets!) what not to put in his mouth.
As a 78-year-old with congestive heart failure, I presented with what I thought was severe indigestion. Dr. Hekmatjou, during what was supposed to be a routine check of my edema, noticed a specific pattern in my jugular vein that I hadn't even mentioned. He canceled his lunch and performed a bedside ultrasound himself, discovering a pericardial effusion that was tamponading. The way he escalated the situation was masterful—no alarm, just a steady increase in urgency. He personally wheeled me to cath lab, briefing the cardiologist en route with data points he'd collected himself. Later, he visited my ICU bed and explained the physiology using the water glass and straw from my tray. He treats the elderly like complex systems, not fragile objects.
A 9-year-old Syrian refugee boy, Ahmed, presented with severe malnutrition and recurrent pneumonia. Dr. Muslu discovered an undiagnosed immunodeficiency disorder. He coordinated with social services for nutritional support and initiated tailored immunoglobulin therapy. The boy's health improved dramatically over six months, and Dr. Muslu arranged for his integration into a local school's health program.
Leyla, a 15-year-old competitive sailor from a wealthy family, developed unexplained fatigue and joint pain during training season. Dr. Muslu diagnosed her with Lyme disease, rare in the region, traced to a regatta in a forested area. He implemented a precise antibiotic regimen that allowed her to return to competition in three weeks while managing her family's high-pressure expectations.
Two-year-old Arda, from a remote village, was brought in by his grandparents with failure to thrive. Dr. Muslu identified a complex congenital heart defect missed in previous checkups. He organized a charity-funded surgery in Istanbul and provided the grandparents with simplified care instructions in their dialect, resulting in successful correction and steady weight gain.
A 7-year-old girl, Zeynep, daughter of seasonal hotel workers, presented with behavioral changes and headaches. Dr. Muslu suspected lead poisoning from old paint in their temporary housing. He confirmed high blood lead levels, initiated chelation therapy, and worked with municipal authorities to inspect and remediate the housing, leading to full neurological recovery.
