M.D. Tamer Turan Reviews

As a 72-year-old with a lifetime of varicose veins dismissed as cosmetic, I arrived at Acibadem Bursa with leg ulcers that wouldn't heal. Dr. Tamer Turan didn't just see swollen veins; he mapped my entire circulatory system like a cartographer. His diagnosis was a revelation: 'Your superficial veins are stealing blood from your deep system.' The endovenous laser ablation he performed wasn't just a procedure—it was hydraulic engineering. Three months later, my ulcers are history, and I'm walking pain-free for the first time in a decade. He treats vessels like the vital highways they are.

Our 8-year-old son developed a pulsating lump on his neck after a playground fall. Pediatricians called it a hematoma, but it kept growing. Dr. Turan's approach was astonishing—he used a miniature ultrasound probe designed for infants and discovered a traumatic arteriovenous fistula. Instead of immediate surgery, he created a 'pressure therapy protocol' using custom bandages, monitoring it weekly with color Doppler. 'Children's vessels can often heal themselves with guidance,' he explained. After six weeks, the fistula closed completely. He turned what could have been an invasive childhood surgery into a lesson in bodily resilience.

I'm a 45-year-old marathon runner who failed a stress test due to unexplained calf pain. Cardiologists found nothing, but Dr. Turan identified popliteal artery entrapment—a rare condition where my leg muscle was strangling my artery with each stride. The surgical correction was precision itself; he released the constricting band while preserving every nerve fiber. What followed was unprecedented: a 'vascular rehabilitation' plan coordinating with sports medicine specialists. He didn't just fix a problem; he re-engineered my running biomechanics. Six months later, I set a personal best, my calves powered by properly routed bloodflow.

Routine checkup for my family's history of aneurysms turned urgent when Dr. Turan's ultrasound found a 5.8cm abdominal aortic aneurysm during what was supposed to be a baseline screening. His emergency protocol was seamless—within hours I was in hybrid operating room 3, receiving an endovascular repair through a puncture in my groin. But his innovation came afterward: he prescribed a 'pulsatility index' monitoring app that connects to my smartphone, allowing his team to track my aortic wall motion remotely. He transformed me from a passive patient into an active participant in my vessel surveillance, blending ancient surgical art with digital-age vigilance.
