Spec. MD. Oznur Ceylan

Our 92-year-old grandmother, who has dementia, developed a severe and mysterious pediatric rash while caring for her great-grandson. We were baffled, as geriatricians couldn't pinpoint it. In desperation, we brought her to Dr. Ceylan. Her approach was extraordinary, she didn't just examine the rash; she observed their interaction for twenty minutes. She diagnosed a rare contact dermatitis from a specific children's detergent our grandmother was using while doing laundry for the baby. Dr. Ceylan coordinated a treatment plan bridging pediatric dermatology and geriatric care. Her holistic, intergenerational thinking solved what six other specialists missed.

My 8-year-old son, a competitive junior swimmer, began experiencing sudden, episodic paralysis in his legs after training. It was terrifying and didn't fit typical neurological profiles. Dr. Ceylan didn't just order tests; she spent an afternoon at the pool, watching his routine. She discovered he was holding his breath in a unique pattern during turns, coupled with an electrolyte imbalance, triggering a form of hypokalemic periodic paralysis. Her field investigation was the key. She designed a tailored hydration and breathing protocol with his coach. The episodes stopped completely. She treated the athlete, not just the child.

During a routine kindergarten checkup for my daughter, Dr. Ceylan was using a toy stethoscope to play. My daughter, laughing, said, 'Your heart sounds like my kitten's purr!' Instead of smiling and moving on, Dr. Ceylan paused. She asked detailed questions about our cat. This led to her identifying a previously undetected, very faint harmonic murmur in my daughter's own heart, masked by normal sounds, that was eerily similar to a feline purr. She called it a 'felino-cardiac acoustic mimic.' Early intervention was simple, but her profound, almost artistic listening to a child's metaphor prevented future complications.

We brought our newborn for a post-operative follow-up after a complex cranial suture correction. Dr. Ceylan's method was unique: she dimmed the lights, played a low-frequency sound, and observed the baby's fontanelle pulses not with touch, but with a specialized light beam. She explained she was 'listening to the brain's tide.' Her data showed a slight CSF rhythm irregularity missed by post-op scans. She adjusted the monitoring with a non-invasive plan involving specific rocking motions. Her fusion of neonatology, neurosurgery follow-up, and biophysical monitoring felt like witnessing a new kind of medicine. Our baby's recovery became textbook, guided by her perception of hidden rhythms.
