Prof. M.D. Emel Güngör

My 3-year-old daughter developed a severe, blistering rash that spread overnight. We were terrified it was something contagious or life-threatening. Dr. Emel Güngör saw us as an emergency case at Acibadem Fulya Hospital. She was incredibly calm and gentle with my crying child. Through careful examination, she diagnosed a rare reaction to a common antibiotic. Her explanation was so clear, and her treatment plan worked within 48 hours. She didn't just treat the rash; she treated our panic. We are forever grateful for her expertise and bedside manner.

As an 82-year-old with a history of skin cancers, my routine checkup with Dr. Güngör turned into something more. She noticed a tiny, almost imperceptible speck on my scalp that I had missed. Her thoroughness led to a biopsy, which confirmed a very early melanoma. She performed the Mohs surgery herself at the hospital. The precision was remarkable—minimal scarring and complete removal. Her follow-up visits are meticulous. She doesn't rush me, answers all my old-man questions with patience, and makes me feel truly cared for, not just processed.

I came in for what I thought was a simple cosmetic consultation for sun spots. Dr. Güngör, however, has a detective's eye. While discussing my concerns, she paused and asked about a faint, patchy discoloration on my neck I'd had for years and dismissed as 'nothing.' She suspected and later confirmed it was a sign of a mild autoimmune condition affecting the skin. This wasn't her specialty, but she coordinated seamlessly with a rheumatologist. Her holistic approach turned a routine visit into a pivotal health intervention. She looks at the whole patient, not just the complaint.

My teenage son suffered from debilitating cystic acne that destroyed his confidence. We had seen several dermatologists with only temporary results. Dr. Güngör took a completely different approach. She spent an hour on the first visit mapping his medical history, diet, and stress factors. She proposed a combination of targeted laser treatments at the hospital and a tailored systemic medication plan, explaining every risk and benefit in detail to both of us. The transformation over six months was not just physical but emotional. Her follow-up protocol is strict but compassionate. She saved his skin and his spirit.
