Patient Experience
I'd been to a few other dietitians about my constant fatigue and stomach issues, and they all gave me pretty standard advice that didn't help. Dr. Öztürk was different. She spent a long time going over my food diary and asked questions no one else had. She figured out it wasn't just one thing, but a combination of a minor food intolerance and some meal timing that was messing with my energy. Her plan was specific to my weird schedule, and for the first time in years, I feel normal.
I needed a basic diet plan for a routine check-up requirement. Honestly, I expected a quick, generic printout. But at Anadolu, even this simple thing felt personal. Dr. Öztürk asked about my cooking habits and budget, which surprised me. The plan she gave me actually used foods I can find at my local market and didn't require a ton of prep. It was straightforward and worked without making life complicated.
The Anadolu Medical Center is nice, but what stood out was the team. The receptionist remembered my name when I came back for my follow-up, which was a nice touch. The nurse who took my initial measurements was really gentle and explained everything. It made the whole process less clinical. Dr. Öztürk's assistant was also great at answering my questions over the phone when I was confused about part of the plan.
I was pretty nervous about starting a diet; past experiences felt like being scolded. Dr. Öztürk has a calm way of explaining things that doesn't make you feel judged. She actually laughed with me about my hopeless addiction to a certain pastry and helped me find a sensible workaround instead of just saying 'never eat that again.' That kind of understanding makes you want to stick to the plan.
