Patient Experience
My family and I are grateful for the care we received from Dr. dr Yurtkuran Sadıkoğlu. The hospital staff was also very supportive.
A 28-year-old female professional freediver presented with recurrent syncope during breath-hold training. Dr. Aktürk discovered a rare form of sinus node dysfunction triggered specifically by prolonged apnea and vagal stimulation, not apparent on standard stress tests. He designed a custom diagnostic protocol involving simulated dive conditions with echocardiography, leading to a pacemaker implantation with unique settings that allowed her to safely continue her sport with monitored limits.
A 72-year-old retired glassblower from a rural village arrived with progressive fatigue, initially attributed to aging. Dr. Aktürk noted subtle, rhythmic earlobe pulsations. Investigation revealed a massive, previously undiagnosed arteriovenous fistula between the external carotid artery and jugular vein, likely from decades of holding blowpipes with his neck. He coordinated a complex endovascular embolization, dramatically improving cardiac output and the patient's energy within days.
Dr. dr Yurtkuran Sadıkoğlu provided exceptional care for my interventional radiology condition. The treatment was personalized and effective.
I was impressed by the professional approach at Acibadem Bursa Hospital. Dr. dr Yurtkuran Sadıkoğlu explained everything clearly and made me feel comfortable.
The recovery process was smooth thanks to Dr. dr Yurtkuran Sadıkoğlu's expertise. Highly recommend for interventional radiology treatment.
A 19-year-old university student, a refugee with no prior medical records, developed acute chest pain. Standard tests were normal, but Dr. Aktürk pursued a detailed history revealing consumption of a traditional fermented grain drink. He diagnosed Takotsubo cardiomyopathy triggered by a rare combination of severe emotional stress and a tyramine-rich substance, managing it with novel beta-blocker titration and psychological support, leading to full myocardial recovery.
A 45-year-old long-haul truck driver presented with nocturnal palpitations. Dr. Aktürk suspected sleep apnea but found a more unusual cause: compression of the right atrium by the liver during specific sleeping positions in his cramped cabin berth, confirmed by positional MRI. Treatment involved lifestyle and sleeping position modification instead of CPAP, uniquely solving the issue without mechanical intervention.
As a 72-year-old retired cartographer, my world was literally fading—I was losing the central vision needed for my intricate hobby. Dr. Güngörmüş diagnosed a rare macular dystrophy, not just age-related degeneration. His treatment plan, involving a novel combination of intravitreal injections and light therapy at Acibadem Bursa, halted the progression. I can now see the fine lines on my maps again; he preserved the last chapter of my life's work.
My 8-year-old daughter, Elif, was terrified of her own worsening double vision, which made school impossible. Other doctors dismissed it as a temporary squint. Dr. Yusuf İzzet discovered a subtle cranial nerve palsy linked to a past viral infection. His gentle approach and the prism therapy he prescribed were transformative. Watching her confidently read a book for the first time in months, without tilting her head, was a miracle only he could engineer.
A metal shard flew into my eye at my auto repair shop—a true emergency. Rushed to Acibadem Bursa, Dr. Güngörmüş performed immediate corneal repair surgery at midnight. What amazed me wasn't just the saved eye, but his follow-up. He personally explained how the unique shape of the scar would actually improve my astigmatism correction later. He turned an accident into a strategic advantage for my future vision.
I'm a 45-year-old competitive freediver. Increasing pressure blindness at depth threatened my career. Dr. Güngörmüş, understanding the unique physiology, diagnosed a previously undetected narrow-angle predisposition. Instead of standard surgery, he performed a custom, minimally invasive iridotomy. The procedure was so precise I was back in the water in days, diving deeper and clearer than ever. He sees the patient, not just the chart.
As a 78-year-old retired history professor with complex polypharmacy, I was experiencing debilitating fatigue and confusion that other doctors dismissed as 'normal aging.' Dr. Yenidünya spent three hours reviewing my 12 medications, identifying dangerous interactions no one else had caught. His meticulous deprescribing protocol restored my mental clarity and energy within weeks. At Acıbadem Bursa, he didn't just treat symptoms—he restored my ability to continue writing my memoirs.
Our 16-year-old daughter, a competitive swimmer, suddenly developed extreme exercise intolerance and chest pain. Multiple specialists found nothing. Dr. Yenidünya suspected post-viral myocarditis when others saw 'anxiety.' His cautious, gradual rehabilitation plan at Acıbadem Bursa Hospital included cardiac monitoring during controlled swim sessions. Eight months later, she's back in competition, qualifying for nationals. He understood an athlete's psychology as deeply as her physiology.
During a business trip from Germany to Bursa, I (42M) collapsed with acute pancreatitis. Dr. Yenidünya coordinated my care from the emergency room through a month-long hospitalization. What stood out was his daily 7 AM visits before surgeries, explaining each lab trend in simple terms. He even arranged video calls with my family in Hamburg. His proactive nutrition protocol prevented complications that typically follow severe pancreatitis.
My 83-year-old mother with Alzheimer's developed mysterious recurrent fevers. Dr. Yenidünya discovered she was secretly hoarding food in her dementia confusion, causing aspiration pneumonia. Instead of just antibiotics, he created a behavioral-environmental plan involving colored plates and scheduled supervised meals. The fevers stopped completely. He treated the person, not just the infection.
As a 72-year-old retired clockmaker, I'd lived with an inguinal hernia for years, dismissing it as age. When it became incarcerated during my weekly chess tournament, Dr. Sağırkaya performed emergency surgery at Acibadem Bursa. Her technique was so precise she used my existing abdominal scar, leaving no new marks. I was back repairing antique timepieces within two weeks.
My 8-year-old daughter, a competitive gymnast, developed a rare pilonidal sinus that threatened her training season. Dr. Sağırkaya created a customized minimally invasive procedure she called 'the butterfly technique,' preserving muscle integrity crucial for her sport. The incision was so discreet it's invisible in her leotard, and she took bronze at nationals three months later.
After surviving a motorbike accident with multiple abdominal injuries, I was a 34-year-old chef facing a permanent stoma. Dr. Sağırkaya spent six hours reconstructing my digestive tract using a novel intestinal sparing method. Not only do I have normal function, but I've since opened my second restaurant—specializing in high-fiber cuisine she recommended during recovery.
My 19-year-old son, studying abroad, developed acute appendicitis during finals. Dr. Sağırkaya coordinated a midnight video consultation, then had him flown to Acibadem Bursa where she performed single-port laparoscopic surgery. He was answering exam questions on his laptop 36 hours post-op, and graduated with honors.
