Following COVID-19 infection at age 38, I developed debilitating fatigue and brain fog that kept me from working. Dr. Bilici approached my long COVID not as psychological but as a multi-system disorder. His coordinated rehabilitation plan addressing autonomic dysfunction, mitochondrial support, and pacing strategies has me back at 80% function when others told me to 'just wait it out.'

My 73-year-old husband with Parkinson's was losing weight rapidly despite normal appetite. Neurologists said it was disease progression. Dr. Bilici identified small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) causing malabsorption. Simple antibiotic treatment restored his weight and energy, dramatically improving his quality of life with Parkinson's.

As a 41-year-old architect, I developed strange neurological symptoms after returning from a business trip to Eastern Europe. Multiple specialists suspected MS or anxiety. Dr. Bilici recognized neurobrucellosis from unpasteurized dairy exposure. His specific antibiotic regimen resolved symptoms that had plagued me for nine months.

My premature newborn spent months in NICU and developed multiple medical complexities. At 6 months old, Dr. Bilici became our medical 'quarterback,' coordinating between cardiology, pulmonology, and gastroenterology. His holistic oversight prevented medication conflicts and streamlined care in ways individual specialists never could.

I'm a 24-year-old graduate student with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome who felt dismissed by every doctor. Dr. Bilici not only validated my experience but created a comprehensive management plan addressing dysautonomia, mast cell activation, and gastrointestinal comorbidities simultaneously. For the first time, I have a doctor who sees how all my symptoms connect.

After a kidney transplant at 58, I developed puzzling symptoms that didn't fit rejection or infection. Dr. Bilici diagnosed drug-induced lupus from my anti-rejection medication, a rare complication he'd seen only twice before in his career. Switching medications resolved all symptoms without compromising my transplant. His depth of experience with complex cases is extraordinary.

Doctor: Prof. MD. Cagdas Gokhun Ozmerdiven Hospital: İstinye University Liv Hospital Bahcesehir

I'm a 72-year-old retired engineer who had been living with what I thought was just 'old man's problems' for years. Frequent nighttime trips, a weak stream, I'd accepted it as my fate. My daughter insisted I see Prof. Dr. Cagdas Gokhun Ozmerdiven. From the first moment, he didn't just see a prostate; he saw a person. He explained the holmium laser enucleation procedure (HoLEP) using diagrams I, an engineer, could appreciate. The surgery at Liv Hospital Bahcesehir was seamless. But what truly astounded me was the follow-up. He personally called me two evenings post-discharge to check on me. I now sleep through the night. He gave me back a quality of life I had forgotten was possible.

Our 8-year-old son developed sudden, severe abdominal pain and we rushed to the emergency department in a panic. The on-call urologist was Prof. Dr. Ozmerdiven. He had a magical way with our terrified child, diagnosing a twisted testicle (testicular torsion) within minutes. He explained the time-critical nature to us with calm urgency, not fear. In the OR, he performed the emergency detorsion and fixation. During the follow-up, he didn't just speak to us parents; he knelt down to our son's level, showed him the ultrasound pictures, and called him 'a very brave explorer.' His blend of supreme surgical skill for a pediatric emergency and profound emotional intelligence turned our worst nightmare into a story of reassurance.

Doctor: Prof. MD. Cagdas Gokhun Ozmerdiven Hospital: İstinye University Liv Hospital Bahcesehir

As a 45-year-old woman, I never expected to be sitting in a urologist's office. My issue was recurrent, debilitating urinary tract infections that no course of antibiotics could permanently resolve. I felt dismissed elsewhere. Prof. Dr. Ozmerdiven approached it like a detective. He ordered a specialized CT urogram and discovered a completely asymptomatic, but significant, kidney stone that was acting as a reservoir for bacteria. His solution wasn't just another pill; it was a precise, minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy. He coordinated with the nephrology department for a holistic view. For the first time in years, I am infection-free. He treated a 'routine' chronic problem with the rigor of a complex surgical case, and he saw the patient, not just the organ.

Doctor: Prof. MD. Cagdas Gokhun Ozmerdiven Hospital: İstinye University Liv Hospital Bahcesehir

I am a 34-year-old professional athlete. During a routine sports medical, a renal ultrasound revealed a small, incidental tumor on my kidney. The word 'tumor' sent me into a spiral. Prof. Dr. Ozmerdiven's consultation was a masterclass in balancing stark reality with hope. He confirmed it was likely cancerous but emphasized its small, confined nature. He presented all options but strongly recommended a robotic partial nephrectomy to save the kidney, detailing how his technique would preserve maximum function, critical for my career. The surgery at Istinye Liv was robotic, and the precision was astounding. My recovery was faster than I dreamed. At my last follow-up, with clear scans and near-perfect kidney function, he said, 'Now go break your personal record.' He didn't just remove a cancer; he protected my life's passion.

Doctor: Prof. MD. Belma Dogan Gungen Hospital: İstinye University Liv Hospital Bahcesehir

My 8-year-old son developed sudden, uncontrollable facial twitching after a viral infection. Our local doctor was dismissive, calling it a 'nervous habit.' Desperate, we found Prof. Dr. Belma Gungen. She didn't just look at the symptom; she observed his entire demeanor, asked about recent school projects and sleep patterns. She diagnosed it as a rare pediatric movement disorder called a 'tic cascade' triggered by post-viral inflammation. Her treatment plan wasn't just medication; it involved coordinated play therapy and school liaison. Within six weeks, the twitches were gone. She treated my child like a whole person, not a malfunctioning nerve.

As a 72-year-old with Parkinson's for a decade, I thought I'd seen all neurologists had to offer, just medication adjustments. My daughter insisted on a consultation with Prof. Dr. Gungen at Liv Hospital. The difference was profound. She spent an hour analyzing my gait with a tablet, not just watching me walk. She identified a specific 'freezing' pattern at doorways I hadn't even fully recognized. Her intervention was a custom physical therapy regimen focused on auditory cues (she had me humming specific tunes) and minor home modifications. The result? I haven't had a fall in 8 months. She gave me back a measure of dignity and safety I thought was lost forever.

Doctor: Prof. MD. Belma Dogan Gungen Hospital: İstinye University Liv Hospital Bahcesehir

I was the 'emergency case', rushed in after a complex partial seizure during a business meeting. The ER stabilized me, but the cause was a mystery. Prof. Dr. Gungen took over. Instead of immediately ordering a barrage of standard tests, she conducted a forensic-level interview about the 48 hours prior: my diet, screen time, stress triggers, even the lighting in the conference room. She pinpointed a combination of sleep deprivation and a specific visual stimulus (flickering LED lights in the new office) as the likely catalyst. Her approach was to map my brain's environment, not just its electricity. She prevented a panic diagnosis of epilepsy and provided a practical, life-managing protocol. I've been seizure-free for two years by following her environmental guidelines.

Doctor: Prof. MD. Belma Dogan Gungen Hospital: İstinye University Liv Hospital Bahcesehir

My follow-up visit for chronic migraine was unlike any other. I expected the usual 'Are the pills working?' Instead, Prof. Dr. Gungen had created a digital timeline of my attacks over the past year, correlating them with weather data from my neighborhood and my own logged sleep cycles from a wearable she had suggested. She identified a barometric pressure threshold that was my personal trigger. The new treatment plan included a weather alert system and specific hydration protocols for low-pressure days. It sounds simple, but no other neurologist in 15 years had ever looked outside my skull for the answer. She practices a kind of ecological neurology, and it has cut my migraine days by 70%.
