Assoc. Prof. M.D. Fahrettin Kılıç Reviews

As a 72-year-old retired cartographer with an undiagnosed vascular malformation causing episodic vertigo, I'd been dismissed by multiple specialists. Dr. Kılıç spent hours analyzing my unconventional MRI sequences, correlating blood flow patterns with my symptom diary. He didn't just read the scan—he mapped my unique vascular architecture like the landscapes I once charted, identifying a tiny arteriovenous fistula others missed. His three-dimensional reconstruction was a work of diagnostic art.

Our 8-year-old daughter, a competitive rhythmic gymnast, developed unexplained wrist pain. While others saw 'normal' images, Dr. Kılıç noticed microscopic stress patterns in her growth plates during dynamic ultrasound. He created a personalized imaging protocol that captured her specific movements, diagnosing early-stage gymnast's wrist before permanent damage. His child-friendly approach made her feel like she was playing a game, not undergoing medical tests.

During a routine archaeological dig in Anatolia, I suffered a complex facial fracture from a cave-in. Transported to Acıbadem Maslak, Dr. Kılıç used intraoperative CT to guide surgeons in real-time, preserving delicate nerve pathways while reconstructing my orbital floor. What amazed me was how he referenced historical anatomical texts during planning, blending ancient medical wisdom with cutting-edge imaging technology.

As a 45-year-old professional perfumer losing my sense of smell, I faced career extinction. Neurologists found nothing. Dr. Kılıç pioneered a specialized olfactory bulb MRI protocol, discovering minute inflammatory changes others wouldn't have pursued. His diagnosis of a rare olfactory neuropathy led to targeted treatment. He even understood how to describe scents in medical terms—a diagnostician who spoke my language.
