Prof. Bulent Evren Erkul

I'd been to a few doctors about this constant fatigue and vague pain. Scans were clear, so they said it was stress. Dr. Erkul was different. He actually sat and listened to the whole, messy story, asked about things that seemed unrelated. He ordered a specific set of blood tests no one else had thought of. Turns out it was a rare autoimmune thing. He explained it all without making me feel stupid, and now we have a real treatment plan. He figured out what others missed.

Had to get a colonoscopy, which honestly, I was dreading. The prep was as bad as everyone says, I won't lie! But the day of, at Anadolu, everything was straightforward. Dr. Erkul's team was calm and professional. The procedure itself was over before I knew it. Dr. Erkul came by after, showed me the pictures, said everything looked perfectly normal. It was a relief to have it done and out of the way with no fuss.

The hospital itself made a difference. I was anxious, but the place is quiet and clean, not chaotic. The lady at the front desk saw I was confused and walked me to the right clinic. Even the nurse who took my blood was really kind, she talked to me about my hometown to distract me. It felt like the staff actually worked together. It wasn't just about the doctor; the whole environment helped me feel more at ease.

What I remember most is how he talked to my mother. She's older and was very scared about her surgery. Dr. Erkul didn't just talk to me; he pulled his chair up, looked her right in the eye, and explained everything in simple, calm terms. He let her ask the same question twice without a hint of impatience. You could see her shoulders relax. That kind of patience and respect means everything when someone you love is vulnerable.
