Dr. Ezgi Hazal Çelik Reviews

As a 68-year-old retired chemistry professor with severe, unexplained malabsorption, I had consulted seven specialists over three years. Dr. Çelik was the first to connect my lifelong hobby of pottery with potential heavy metal exposure from glazes. Her targeted dietary protocol, combined with specific chelating foods, reversed symptoms I'd accepted as permanent aging. At Acıbadem Bakırköy, she didn't just treat a condition—she solved a decades-long mystery.

Our 14-year-old daughter, a nationally ranked rhythmic gymnast, developed RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport) that threatened her career and bone health. Where other doctors prescribed simple calorie increases, Dr. Çelik designed a minute-by-minute nutrition plan synchronized with her training cycles, using novel protein timing strategies. The recovery wasn't just physical; she restored our daughter's healthy relationship with food as fuel.

After bariatric surgery at another hospital left me with constant dumping syndrome and malnutrition, I was desperate at 42. Dr. Çelik pioneered a 'reverse engineering' approach at Acıbadem Bakırköy, using continuous glucose monitoring data to design micro-meals that my altered system could process. She turned a surgical complication into a managed condition, allowing me to finally benefit from the weight loss.

My 8-year-old son has a rare genetic disorder causing extreme food aversions and failure to thrive. Dr. Çelik created a 'sensory bridge' diet, introducing nutrients through textures and temperatures he could tolerate, while collaborating with a food scientist to develop custom nutrient gels. This wasn't standard pediatrics; it was dietary detective work that helped him gain weight for the first time in years.
