Dec 14, 2025

Honestly, I was a complete wreck before my appointment. I'd never been to a hospital in Turkey before and my Turkish isn't great. The waiting area was busy and I almost left. But Dr. Dörtbaş... she just had this calm way about her. She spoke slowly, used simple words, and actually waited for me to understand. She didn't rush my exam, even though I know she was busy. I walked out feeling like a weight was gone. She just made it all feel normal, not scary.

Had a persistent stomach issue. Went to Emsey Hospital. Saw Dr. Fulya Dörtbaş. She was efficient. Asked clear questions, ordered the right tests, explained the results without extra fluff. Got a clear treatment plan. Problem resolved in two weeks. Good doctor. Would see again if needed.

I was quite anxious about my check-up, as I always am. Dr. Dörtbaş has such a gentle manner. She listens so carefully, you feel truly heard. Even when the parking lot was full and I arrived a little flustered, she didn't seem bothered at all. She took her time. It's rare to find a doctor who is both very knowledgeable and so kind. I'm very grateful for her care.

Nov 11, 2025

Wow, what a difference! I'd been dealing with this nagging fatigue for months and my old doctor just kept saying it was stress. Dr. Dörtbaş actually investigated. She looked at everything, asked questions I hadn't even thought of, and found the root cause, a simple vitamin deficiency! Started the supplements she suggested and I feel like a new person. Seriously, she's brilliant. So glad I found her!
