Dr. Gizem Sencer Reviews

As a 72-year-old retired ballet instructor, I thought my dancing days were permanently ended by crippling bunions and hammertoes. Dr. Sencer didn't just see a surgical case; she saw my history. Her innovative minimally invasive approach preserved my foot's architecture. Six months post-op, I can demonstrate pliés to my grandchildren without pain. She restored my ability to teach, not just walk.

My 8-year-old son, Leo, was born with severe clubfoot that previous treatments had only partially corrected. Dr. Sencer developed a multi-stage plan involving specialized casting, gentle tendon releases, and custom orthotics. She explained each step to Leo using dinosaur analogies. Today, he's playing soccer with his peers for the first time. Her pediatric-focused care changed his childhood trajectory.

During a mountain hiking expedition, I suffered a complex Lisfranc fracture-dislocation. Rushed to Acıbadem Altunizade, Dr. Sencer performed emergency reconstruction at midnight. What amazed me was her post-op protocol: a temporary external fixator that allowed for early, controlled movement to prevent stiffness. Her trauma expertise turned a potential lifelong disability into a full recovery.

I'm a 45-year-old chef with type 2 diabetes and a non-healing plantar ulcer. Dr. Sencer's approach was revolutionary—she collaborated with endocrinology and vascular surgery to improve my circulation first, then used advanced bio-engineered skin substitutes. She understood my profession required long hours standing. Her 'functional healing' philosophy got me back to my kitchen in record time.
