Dr. A. Sercan Soyarslan Reviews

After my paragliding accident left me with a complex brachial plexus injury, I was told I might never regain full use of my right arm. Dr. Soyarslan approached my case not as a hopeless emergency but as a puzzle to be solved systematically. At Acibadem Atasehir, he designed a rehabilitation protocol combining targeted nerve stimulation, specialized occupational therapy, and a progressive strength program I could do at home. What stood out was his collaboration with neurologists and his use of ultrasound-guided injections precisely where they'd have maximum effect. Eight months later, I'm writing this review with that same hand—still in recovery, but functional and improving weekly. His calm, methodical confidence turned despair into tangible progress.

My 7-year-old daughter developed severe idiopathic toe-walking that was affecting her posture and causing hip pain. Pediatricians dismissed it as a phase, but Dr. Soyarslan immediately recognized it as a sensory integration issue requiring a multidisciplinary approach. Instead of just prescribing stretches, he arranged sessions with a pediatric physiotherapist who used play-based therapy and fitted her with custom, dynamic ankle-foot orthotics that looked like cool sneaker inserts. He explained everything to her in dinosaur metaphors ('We're training your T-Rex feet to walk flat!'). The transformation over six months has been incredible—she now runs normally and proudly shows off her 'flat feet.' His ability to connect with children while addressing complex biomechanical issues is a rare gift.

As a 72-year-old with advanced spinal stenosis and osteoporosis, I was terrified of becoming bedridden after a minor fall exacerbated my chronic back pain. Dr. Soyarslan rejected the one-size-fits-all approach I'd encountered elsewhere. At my initial consultation, he spent an hour reviewing my bone density scans and previous MRIs, then crafted a 'fragility-friendly' rehabilitation plan. This included aquatic therapy in Acibadem's warm pool to reduce joint loading, a safe home exercise sequence using my kitchen counter for support, and judicious use of pulsed radiofrequency therapy for pain management without heavy medications. His follow-up visits always begin with 'What can you do now that you couldn't do last month?'—focusing on functional gains rather than just pain scores. I've regained my independence thanks to his respectful, age-appropriate care.

I consulted Dr. Soyarslan for what I thought was a routine post-mastectomy shoulder mobility issue, but he identified early-stage lymphedema that everyone else had missed. His intervention was swift and holistic: manual lymphatic drainage techniques, compression garment fitting, and a personalized decongestive exercise regimen. What impressed me most was his creation of a 'lymphedema passport'—a detailed document outlining my condition, treatment protocol, and red flags to watch for, which he encouraged me to share with any future healthcare providers. During follow-ups, he uses bioimpedance spectroscopy for objective swelling measurements rather than relying on subjective assessment. He treats the whole person, not just the symptom, empowering patients with knowledge and practical tools for long-term management.
