M.D. İlkar Aydın Reviews

I was terrified when my 4-year-old son swallowed a small metal toy part. The ER team at Acibadem Fulya rushed us to Dr. İlkar Aydın. He didn't just see a scan; he saw a scared little boy. He explained everything to me in simple terms while making funny faces at my son to keep him calm. His report was so detailed it pinpointed the exact location without needing extra scans. The pediatric surgeon used his images like a perfect map. Dr. Aydın followed up personally the next day to check on my son. More than a radiologist, he was our guardian angel during a parent's worst nightmare.

As an 82-year-old with a complex history of abdominal surgeries, I needed a very specific MRI for a suspected adhesion. My previous experiences elsewhere were claustrophobic and painful. Dr. Aydın's approach was revolutionary. First, he spent 20 minutes reviewing my old surgical records with me. During the scan, his voice through the speaker was calm and clear, giving me countdowns for each loud noise. The real miracle was his report: he didn't just describe the images; he created a 3D narrative of my anatomy, distinguishing old scar tissue from new concerns with absolute clarity. He called my surgeon directly to discuss the findings. For the first time, I felt 'seen' by a radiologist, not just scanned.

My case was a diagnostic puzzle: unexplained neurological symptoms that had bounced between three specialists. Dr. İlkar Aydın was my last resort for a full spine and brain MRI. What set him apart was his 'detective' mindset. He didn't just process the order; he requested my previous, unrelated scans from years prior for comparison. He found a tiny, slow-growing meningioma that others had missed because he looked for change over time, not just a static image. His report read like a medical mystery novel, logically ruling out possibilities. He then coordinated a video consult with my neurologist to explain the findings visually. He didn't just diagnose me; he solved me.

I'm a healthy 45-year-old who went for a routine cardiac CT calcium scoring, almost as a checkbox. Dr. Aydın's thoroughness turned a routine check into a life-saving intervention. He noticed an anomalous vessel course near my heart that was completely incidental to the scan's purpose—a finding most would overlook. He didn't dismiss it; he performed a quick, contrast-enhanced scan on the spot (with my consent) to clarify. He discovered a rare congenital anomaly that put me at risk during strenuous exercise. His manner was direct but not alarming. He drew me diagrams, provided literature, and connected me with a specialist within the hour. This wasn't a review of a scan; it was a profound review of my future health.
