Assoc. Prof. M.D. Emine Karabük Reviews

As a 72-year-old woman experiencing postmenopausal bleeding, I was terrified. Dr. Emine didn't just see me as another elderly patient; she saw my fear. At Acibadem Atakent, she performed a hysteroscopy with such gentle precision. What amazed me was how she explained everything using simple drawings, even showing me the images afterward. Her follow-up protocol was meticulous—three checkups in six weeks. She remembered my granddaughter's name from our first conversation. This wasn't just treatment; it was compassionate care that respected my age while addressing my health with modern expertise.

Our 14-year-old daughter got her first period that turned into a hemorrhagic nightmare within days. We rushed to emergency at midnight. Dr. Emine met us in the ER looking calm despite the hour. She spoke directly to our daughter first, asking permission to examine her—this small act gave our child agency during a scary moment. The diagnosis was a bleeding disorder exacerbated by menstruation. Dr. Emine coordinated with hematology while managing the gynecological emergency. She prescribed treatment that felt tailored for an adolescent, not just a smaller adult. Six months later, our daughter has her life back, and Dr. Emine still answers our panicked texts within hours.

I came for a routine IUD replacement, expecting a quick visit. During the pelvic exam, Dr. Emine's demeanor shifted subtly. She found something I hadn't noticed—a small cervical irregularity. Instead of alarming me, she calmly suggested a colposcopy right then. Her technique was so skillful I felt minimal discomfort. The biopsy revealed CIN3. What followed was a LLETZ procedure performed with such artistry that my follow-up showed clear margins with minimal tissue removal. She treated a potentially life-altering condition during what should have been a simple appointment, demonstrating vigilance that turned routine into lifesaving.

After three miscarriages and failed IVF cycles elsewhere, we approached Dr. Emine as our last hope. She spent two hours on our initial consultation, mapping my uterine artery Doppler indices and endometrial receptivity—tests no one had previously ordered. She discovered a subtle septate uterus and compromised blood flow. Her surgical correction was followed by a tailored endometrial preparation protocol. During our successful pregnancy, she managed my subchorionic hematoma with weekly monitoring, once meeting me at the hospital at 7 AM before her surgeries. Our daughter is now six months old. Dr. Emine didn't just practice medicine; she engineered a pregnancy where my body had previously failed, treating our case like a complex puzzle needing a bespoke solution.
