As a 72-year-old with a complex incarcerated umbilical hernia that two other surgeons deemed too risky due to my COPD, I had resigned myself to living with constant discomfort. Dr. Yaltı approached my case with a refreshing blend of caution and confidence. He didn't just see a risky surgery; he saw a person whose quality of life was deteriorating. He proposed a novel, minimally invasive laparoscopic technique combined with local anesthesia to minimize respiratory stress. The preparation was meticulous—pulmonary function tests, coordinated care with a pulmonologist. The surgery at Bodrum Hospital Acibadem was flawless. I was walking the same evening. His post-op visits were marked by a quiet, reassuring presence. He didn't just fix a hernia; he gave me back my garden and my peace.
Our 8-year-old daughter, Elif, developed a sudden, severe abdominal pain while we were on holiday in Bodrum. The local clinic suspected appendicitis and sent us to Acibadem in a panic. Dr. Ertuğrul Yaltı met us in the ER with a calm that instantly cut through our terror. He spoke directly to Elif, explaining everything to her in simple terms about the 'tiny worm' that needed to come out. For us, he detailed a single-port laparoscopic appendectomy, leaving virtually no scar. His skill was matched by his empathy; he understood a child's fear and a parent's dread. The surgery was quick, and his follow-up the next morning involved checking Elif's cartoon bandage and her stuffed animal's 'health.' We left Turkey with gratitude, not just for the medical excellence, but for the profound human kindness.
What began as a routine checkup for persistent acid reflux turned into the discovery of a large, asymptomatic hiatal hernia and early Barrett's esophagus. Dr. Yaltı presented the facts without alarmism but with absolute clarity. He mapped out two paths: lifelong medication and monitoring, or a corrective laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication. His explanation was a masterclass in patient education—he used diagrams, even a simple model. He never pressured, only illuminated. I opted for surgery. The procedure at Bodrum Hospital was robotic-assisted, a technology he wielded with impressive precision. My recovery was remarkably smooth, guided by his specific, phased dietary plan. Six months later, not a single reflux episode. He transformed a potentially chronic condition into a definitive solution with foresight and cutting-edge skill.
I arrived at Dr. Yaltı's clinic as a last resort—a 45-year-old with a chronically infected pilonidal sinus that had recurred after three previous surgeries abroad. I was in constant pain and had lost all faith in surgeons. Dr. Yaltı examined the scarred, inflamed area with a thoughtful frown. 'The previous techniques failed you; we need a different philosophy,' he said. He proposed the complete excision with a unique Limberg flap reconstruction, explaining how this would change the tension and anatomy of the area to prevent recurrence. The honesty was brutal but comforting. The surgery was complex, dealing with old scar tissue, but he executed it perfectly. His post-operative care was intensely personal; he changed the dressings himself for the first week, monitoring the flap's viability closely. A year on, I am finally, truly healed. He didn't just perform surgery; he solved a puzzle that others had given up on.

As a 72-year-old retired marine cartographer, my lifelong struggle with undiagnosed OCD centered on map symmetry and tidal calculations. Dr. Ay didn't just prescribe medication; she incorporated my passion into therapy, using nautical charts as exposure tools. After six months, I can now visit harbors without needing to mentally 'correct' mooring line angles—a freedom I hadn't known since childhood.
Our 8-year-old daughter Elif developed selective mutism after witnessing a hotel fire during our vacation. Dr. Ay worked with her through puppet therapy in Turkish and English, discovering she'd created an entire silent language with her stuffed animals. The breakthrough came when Dr. Ay learned this 'language' and communicated back—Elif spoke her first words in months that same afternoon.
I'm a 34-year-old professional freediver who developed panic attacks at depth after encountering a shipwreck. Traditional therapists focused on my surface anxiety, but Dr. Ay recognized it as a specific phobia tied to enclosed underwater spaces. Her unique VR therapy simulated gradual wreck penetration while monitoring my physiological responses. I've now returned to competitive diving with new mental protocols.
After surviving a paragliding accident that left me with traumatic brain injury at 41, I developed Capgras syndrome—believing my wife was an imposter. Dr. Ay coordinated with neurologists to create a multisensory recognition therapy using scent, voice recordings, and tactile memory objects from our 15-year marriage. The moment I truly recognized my wife again occurred during a session with our wedding song playing.
