Patient Experience
As a 42-year-old archaeologist working in remote Anatolia, I discovered I was pregnant with unexpected twins during a rare site visit. Dr. Kahraman coordinated a complex care plan via satellite phone initially, then managed my high-risk pregnancy with innovative monitoring that allowed me to continue my fieldwork safely until the final month. His understanding of my unconventional lifestyle while ensuring medical rigor resulted in the healthy delivery of my daughters via planned C-section at Acibadem Atakent.
My 17-year-old daughter developed sudden severe pelvic pain during her national ballet competition preparation. Dr. Kahraman diagnosed a rapidly twisting ovarian dermoid cyst that required immediate surgery. What impressed us most was how he involved my daughter in every decision, explaining medical terms through ballet metaphors, and his surgical precision preserved her ovarian tissue completely. She returned to competition within three months, a recovery her coaches called miraculous.
After four miscarriages across three countries, my husband and I arrived at Dr. Kahraman's clinic as our last hope. He discovered a previously undiagnosed unicornuate uterus with a non-communicating horn. Instead of standard treatments, he pioneered a custom laparoscopic approach to remove the problematic tissue while preserving function. I'm now holding my sleeping son, born at 38 weeks through the vaginal delivery Dr. Kahraman made possible against all predictions.
During my routine checkup at 34 weeks, Dr. Kahraman noticed subtle changes in my baby's movement patterns others had dismissed. He ordered immediate advanced monitoring and discovered a rare velamentous cord insertion with vasa previa. His team performed an emergency C-section within hours, saving my daughter who had begun bleeding internally. His attentiveness to what he called 'the patient's intuitive concerns' made the difference between tragedy and joy.
