Dr. Birgül Çabuk Reviews

As a 72-year-old retired geology professor with persistent shoulder pain dismissed by others as arthritis, Dr. Çabuk's musculoskeletal ultrasound revealed a rare, slow-growing chondrosarcoma missed on my previous X-rays. Her precise image-guided biopsy confirmed the diagnosis without invasive surgery, allowing targeted treatment that saved my arm function. Her ability to 'read the rocks' of my anatomy changed everything.

My 8-year-old daughter, a competitive gymnast, began experiencing unexplained dizziness after routines. Multiple doctors found nothing. Dr. Çabuk performed a specialized Doppler ultrasound of her vertebral arteries during different neck positions, diagnosing a rare case of Bow Hunter's syndrome. Her gentle approach kept my daughter calm, and her findings prevented a potential stroke during a backflip.

During a routine pregnancy scan at 32 weeks, Dr. Çabuk noticed subtle, abnormal vascular patterns in the placenta that others might have overlooked. She diagnosed vasa previa, a life-threatening condition for my baby. Her urgent coordination led to a planned early C-section. My daughter is here today because of Dr. Çabuk's exceptional vigilance in a standard scan.

As a 45-year-old chef, I lost my sense of smell. ENT exams were normal. Dr. Çabuk suggested a specific MRI protocol focusing on the olfactory bulbs and tracts. She discovered minute changes suggesting early neurodegenerative disease, not a sinus issue. This early, unexpected radiological diagnosis has allowed me to access treatments and plan my life proactively.
