Dr. Ferhat Oto

I brought my 82-year-old mother to Dr. Ferhat Oto after she developed sudden confusion and weakness. We thought it was just aging, but Dr. Oto immediately suspected something more. He spent an hour with her, speaking slowly and clearly, examining her with such gentle hands. He ordered specific tests that other doctors had overlooked and discovered she had a severe electrolyte imbalance and early-stage kidney issues. His holistic approach treated not just the numbers but her as a person. He even called me the next evening to check on her. At Acibadem Bursa, we found not just a specialist, but a guardian for my mother's golden years.

Our 7-year-old son, Kerem, had been having recurring stomach pains for months. Pediatricians called it 'growth pains.' Dr. Ferhat Oto was our last resort. The way he interacted with Kerem was magical—he got down to his level, used toy models to explain the digestive system, and earned his trust. He diagnosed a food intolerance combined with childhood anxiety manifesting physically. His treatment plan involved dietary changes for Kerem and parenting guidance for us. He didn't just prescribe medicine; he prescribed understanding. For the first time in months, Kerem is pain-free and smiling. Dr. Oto has the rare gift of healing both children and worried parents.

I arrived at Acibadem Bursa's ER at 2 AM with crushing chest pain, terrified I was having a heart attack. Dr. Ferhat Oto was the internal medicine specialist on call. In the chaos of the emergency room, his calmness was my anchor. He rapidly ruled out cardiac issues but didn't dismiss my pain. Through precise questioning, he identified it as an extreme esophageal spasm triggered by severe acid reflux and stress. He stayed with me until the acute episode passed, explaining each step. His follow-up care involved a tailored gastroenterological and lifestyle plan. He turned a night of panic into a roadmap for long-term health. This wasn't emergency medicine; it was emergency compassion.

As a 45-year-old with a busy career, I only went for a 'routine checkup' to renew a prescription. Dr. Ferhat Oto, however, conducts nothing routinely. He reviewed my basic bloodwork and noticed a subtle, consistent elevation in one liver enzyme others had ignored for years. He investigated like a detective, asking about supplements, travel history, and even my favorite foods. He ordered a specialized ultrasound that revealed mild fatty liver disease. His intervention was preemptive: a detailed metabolic plan to reverse the condition before it caused damage. He reframed my health from 'managing complaints' to 'optimizing function.' That checkup wasn't a formality; it was a future-saving consultation.
