Asst. Prof. MD. Sukru Tas

I was admitted through the emergency department at ISU Medical Park Gaziosmanpaşa with sudden, severe abdominal pain. Dr. Tas was on call and immediately suspected a strangulated hernia. His calm, decisive manner in the middle of the night was incredibly reassuring. He explained the urgent need for surgery in clear, simple terms to my terrified family. The laparoscopic procedure he performed was a success, and his post-operative visits were thorough. He didn't just treat the hernia; he took time to discuss lifestyle adjustments to prevent recurrence. From emergency to recovery, his expertise and compassionate leadership of the surgical team were exceptional.

My 8-year-old son required an appendectomy. As a parent, the fear is indescribable. Dr. Sukru Tas approached the situation with a dual focus: clinical precision for my son and emotional support for us. He used drawings to show my son what his appendix was and why it needed to come out, which completely eased his anxiety. He performed a minimally invasive surgery, and the recovery was remarkably quick with almost no visible scarring. During follow-ups, he spoke directly to my son, making him feel brave and involved. We weren't just another case; Dr. Tas treated my child with a gentle, respectful expertise that went far beyond the operating room.

As a 72-year-old with multiple chronic conditions, including diabetes, the prospect of gallbladder surgery was daunting. Dr. Tas conducted my consultation not just as a surgeon, but as a strategist. He coordinated closely with my cardiologist and endocrinologist to create a tailored perioperative plan, meticulously managing my medications and risks. His approach was methodical and transparent, leaving no question unanswered. The surgery itself was smooth, and his specific attention to post-op pain management and mobility for an elderly patient made all the difference in my recovery. He embodies the academic rigor of a professor, evidence-based, collaborative, and profoundly careful with complex cases.

What began as a routine check-up for persistent acid reflux led Dr. Tas to recommend further investigation. His thoroughness uncovered a small, early-stage hiatal hernia. He presented me with all options, from monitoring to surgical repair, without any pressure. I opted for the surgery, and he performed a robotic-assisted Nissen fundoplication. The technological precision was impressive, but more so was his detailed follow-up protocol. He provided a specific, phased diet plan and rehabilitation exercises. My recovery wasn't left to chance; it was mapped out. This wasn't a simple procedure, it was a complete care pathway designed by a true expert who thinks about the patient's life long after they leave the hospital.
