Prof. Ilker Tinay

I'd been to a few doctors about this nagging fatigue and weird joint pain. Everyone had a different theory. Dr. Tinay was the first one who actually sat and listened, really listened, to the whole timeline. He ordered some specific tests the others hadn't thought of, and it turned out to be something pretty rare. He explained it all to me with a whiteboard in his office, drawing it out so I could understand. I finally had a name for what was wrong, and a real plan.

Had to get a colonoscopy, not exactly anyone's idea of a good time. I was pretty nervous about the whole thing. But honestly, the procedure itself was a breeze. Dr. Tinay's team at Anadolu had everything down to a science. The prep was the worst part, but they gave clear instructions. The day of, everyone was calm and professional. I went in, went to sleep, and woke up with it all done. Got the results quickly, and everything was clear. It was just... smooth.

The parking garage was completely full when I arrived for my appointment, which stressed me out. By the time I got to the clinic, I was flustered. But the lady at the front desk was so kind, told me not to worry and that it happens. The whole place felt calm, not like a typical hectic hospital. Even the nurse who took my vitals had a nice chat with me about my hometown. It made a real difference to how I felt going in to see the doctor.

What I remember most is how Dr. Tinay talked to my mother. She's older and gets confused easily. He didn't just talk to me; he looked right at her, spoke slowly, and checked she understood each part of her treatment plan. He didn't rush us, even though I'm sure he was busy. He has a quiet, patient way about him that puts you at ease. You feel like you're his only patient in that moment.
