Op. MD. Melik Ayverdi Reviews

I brought my 4-year-old son, Kerem, to Dr. Melik Bey after weeks of him tugging his ear and sleepless nights. The clinic was busy, but the doctor had this incredible way with children, he showed Kerem the otoscope light on his own finger first, calling it a 'tiny flashlight explorer.' Diagnosis was swift: stubborn bilateral otitis media. He explained the treatment plan to me with simple drawings on the notepad, emphasizing why a full antibiotic course was crucial. No rushed prescription; he took the time to ensure I understood. Kerem now calls him 'the ear explorer doctor' and wasn't scared at all at the follow-up. A true pediatric ENT specialist who understands both anatomy and childhood fear.

As a 72-year-old with chronic sinusitis and a failed previous surgery, I was skeptical. My case was complex, constant facial pressure, lost sense of smell for years. Dr. Ayverdi didn't just look at my old CT scans; he ordered a new, detailed 3D sinus tomography at Medical Park Gebze. He spent 40 minutes with me, mapping out the anatomy, showing where the previous surgery had closed up, and explaining the revision endoscopic approach. The surgery itself was last week. The difference is night and day. The post-op care has been meticulous, with daily nasal lavage demonstrations by his nurse. He calls me himself to check in. This isn't just treatment; it's a meticulously planned restoration. For an elderly patient with a complex history, his precision and patience are a gift.

Absolute emergency on a Sunday evening! My husband suddenly developed a severe peritonsillar abscess, could barely swallow or breathe. We rushed to Medical Park Gebze opposite Fatih Hospital. Dr. Melik Ayverdi was on call. He assessed the situation in minutes in the ER, his calm demeanor immediately lowering our panic. He explained the need for immediate drainage to prevent airway obstruction. He performed the procedure right there, with incredible skill and steady hands, all while explaining each step to my terrified husband. The relief was instantaneous. He arranged for a short inpatient observation, checked on him multiple times through the night, and provided clear discharge instructions for antibiotics and follow-up. In a true ENT crisis, his decisive action and expertise were lifesaving.

I came in for what I thought was a routine checkup for occasional hoarseness, I'm a teacher. Dr. Ayverdi, however, didn't treat it as routine. After the basic exam, he used a flexible laryngoscope, which was uncomfortable but quick. He spotted a small, benign-looking nodule on my vocal cord I knew nothing about. Instead of dismissing it, he connected it directly to my profession, calling it a 'teacher's nodule.' His recommendation wasn't immediate surgery; it was a tailored plan of vocal hygiene, specific hydration advice, and a referral to a speech therapist he works with closely. He framed it as 'preventive maintenance for your instrument.' This wasn't a five-minute prescription visit; it was a strategic consultation to preserve my long-term vocal health. A doctor who looks beyond the obvious symptom.
