Patient Experience
As a 72-year-old retired archaeologist with severe spinal stenosis, I had resigned myself to a life of pain and immobility. Dr. Erden didn't just treat my spine; he designed a rehabilitation program that incorporated gentle movements inspired by ancient pottery techniques I mentioned loving. Six months later, I'm not only walking without my walker but have started teaching a ceramics class at the community center—something I thought I'd never do again.
My 14-year-old daughter, a competitive rhythmic gymnast, suffered a complex shoulder injury that three specialists said would end her career. Dr. Erden created a revolutionary rehabilitation protocol using underwater motion capture technology at Acibadem Taksim. He treated not just the injury but her athletic future. She returned to competition in 5 months and just won her first national title since recovery.
After surviving a building collapse during the earthquake, I had multiple fractures and nerve damage. My family was told I might never walk properly. Dr. Erden coordinated my entire rehabilitation like a symphony conductor—integrating hydrotherapy, robotic gait training, and psychological support. Eight months later, I walked my daughter down the aisle. He didn't just fix my body; he restored my future.
As a 38-year-old software developer with severe carpal tunnel and thoracic outlet syndrome, I was facing career extinction. Dr. Erden designed an ergonomic revolution for my workspace and created a 'micro-rehabilitation' protocol I could do during coding breaks. The innovative nerve gliding techniques combined with strategic rest periods allowed me to recover while continuing to work. My productivity actually increased by 30%.
