M.D. Nurgül Bozoğlu Reviews

A 28-year-old nomadic Yörük shepherd presented with chronic shoulder pain dismissed by local clinics. Dr. Bozoğlu's dynamic ultrasound revealed a rare, intermittent subluxation of the long head of the biceps tendon only occurring in his specific shearing posture. She collaborated with a physiotherapist to design a unique rehabilitation program mimicking his herding movements, enabling full recovery without abandoning his traditional livelihood.

A 7-year-old girl from a low-income family, a champion marble player, developed unexplained wrist swelling. Conventional X-rays were normal. Dr. Bozoğlu, suspecting an overuse injury from her unique thumb-flicking technique, performed a high-resolution MRI that identified a minute stress fracture in the scaphoid. She arranged pro-bono follow-up imaging to monitor healing, allowing the child to return to her beloved game within two months.

A 55-year-old retired calligrapher with severe essential tremor was being evaluated for deep brain stimulation. Dr. Bozoğlu performed the pre-operative tractography MRI but noticed an atypical vascular pattern near the target. She postponed the procedure and ordered a specialized MR-angiogram, which revealed a previously undiagnosed arteriovenous malformation, fundamentally changing the surgical approach and preventing a potential catastrophic hemorrhage.

A 33-year-old immigrant factory worker from Syria presented with worsening headaches. A non-contrast CT ordered elsewhere was reported as normal. Dr. Bozoğlu, noting subtle asymmetry in the sella turcica, insisted on a contrast-enhanced pituitary protocol MRI. This revealed a microadenoma causing early acromegaly. Treatment with medication was initiated, halting the progression and preventing irreversible facial and bodily changes.
