Assoc. Prof. MD. Ahmet Sevencan Reviews

Our 14-year-old daughter, Elif, was diagnosed with severe adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The curve was progressing rapidly, and we were terrified. Dr. Sevencan didn't just see an X-ray; he saw a young dancer whose passion was at risk. He explained the complex spinal fusion procedure with hand-drawn diagrams, involving us in every decision. What stood out was his 'scoliosis council' approach, he coordinated with a physiotherapist and psychologist pre-surgery. Post-op, during a midnight round, he noticed her discomfort wasn't just pain but anxiety about the hardware. He sat and explained how each titanium rod was placed, showing her the intraoperative neuromonitoring graphs. Six months later, she's back in ballet class with modified movements. He didn't just straighten her spine; he preserved her future.

My 82-year-old mother, Gülten, fell in her garden, fracturing her osteoporotic hip. The ER referred us to Dr. Sevencan as a 'complex geriatric case.' Instead of rushing to surgery, he spent 45 minutes reviewing her heart medication, diabetes logs, and even her mild cognitive decline notes. He proposed a modified cemented hemiarthroplasty with a specific anesthesia protocol to avoid delirium. During the procedure, he discovered an unexpected pelvic insufficiency fracture and repaired it simultaneously. His post-op care was revolutionary, he had her sitting in a chair the same day with a custom hip precaution protocol that accounted for her poor memory. At follow-up, he didn't just check the incision; he asked about her tomato plants. She's now gardening with a walker. He treated the whole ecosystem of her health.

We brought our 6-year-old son, Deniz, for what we thought was a routine checkup for intoeing. Dr. Sevencan observed him walking, then crawling, then running barefoot in his office. He diagnosed not just femoral anteversion, but identified subtle differences in his gait cycles suggesting early-stage mild cerebral palsy no one had caught. Instead of braces or surgery, he designed a 'play-based intervention', specific climbing activities, swimming strokes, and even recommended a particular brand of shoes. He video-called us monthly to review our home videos of Deniz playing. After a year, the intoeing corrected naturally, and the early CP signs are managed. He turned our anxiety into a game plan, using observation as his primary tool.

Our newborn, Zeynep, was diagnosed with congenital vertical talus in her right foot during a prenatal ultrasound. We met Dr. Sevencan when she was 3 days old. He performed the first gentle manipulations and casting in the NICU, explaining this wasn't an emergency but a 'developmental journey.' His technique involved a unique serial casting method using softer materials than standard, adjusting for her premature skin. Before her minimally invasive surgery at 6 months, he created a 3D-printed model of her foot anatomy to show us exactly what he'd correct. The most remarkable part was his 'developmental milestones integration', each cast change was timed with her motor development stages. At her last visit, her foot is fully functional, and he's already planning her shoe-wearing transition at 18 months. He treated her foot as part of her entire growth story.
