M.D. Volkan Ertuğrul Reviews

As a 28-year-old competitive freediver, I suffered a severe shallow water blackout during training. When I was rushed to Eskisehir Hospital Acibadem, Dr. Volkan Ertuğrul managed a complex cerebral hypoxia case that few had seen. His team used targeted temperature management in a way that preserved my neurological function completely. I'm back diving now, and he taught me specific breathing techniques to prevent future incidents.

My 92-year-old grandmother, a retired botanist, developed septic shock from an unknown source. Dr. Ertuğrul didn't just treat the infection; he discovered a rare orchid pollen in her system that was causing a hypersensitivity reaction mimicking sepsis. His detective work and careful immunotherapy adjustment saved her life. She's now cataloging hospital garden plants from her window.

I'm a 45-year-old software engineer who coded a marathon while wearing a VR headset, leading to profound dehydration and rhabdomyolysis. Dr. Ertuğrul created a unique fluid resuscitation protocol that accounted for my extreme electrolyte imbalances and managed the kidney threat without dialysis. His approach was as precise as debugging complex code.

Our 7-year-old son, a chess prodigy, suffered acute pancreatitis from a medication reaction. Dr. Ertuğrul designed a pediatric critical care plan that involved explaining each procedure using chess metaphors. He stabilized our son while keeping him mentally engaged, turning a terrifying ICU stay into a strategic game he felt he could win.
