Patient Experience
Our 14-year-old competitive figure skater, Elif, developed a mysterious fatigue syndrome that baffled local doctors. Dr. Gökyar didn't just run tests—he spent an afternoon at the rink observing her training regimen. He discovered her 'lazy eye' from childhood was causing subtle balance compensation that drained her energy. His coordinated treatment with a vision therapist allowed Elif to not only recover but achieve her personal best scores the following season.
When our newborn, Aras, failed his hearing screening repeatedly, we were devastated. Dr. Gökyar arranged a midnight consultation after reviewing his unusual birth records from a rural clinic. He identified a rare congenital anomaly affecting the Eustachian tubes and performed a minimally invasive procedure at just 3 weeks old. Today, Aras responds to whispers—a miracle we attribute to Dr. Gökyar's willingness to challenge conventional diagnostic timelines.
My 8-year-old son, Kaan, suffered from severe nighttime terrors that medication couldn't control. Dr. Gökyar suggested an unconventional approach: analyzing his video game patterns. He discovered Kaan was playing horror-themed games during daytime that triggered subconscious fears. Through guided 'game therapy' sessions where Dr. Gökyar actually learned the games to understand the triggers, Kaan's terrors ceased completely within six weeks.
As refugees from Syria, our 6-year-old daughter, Layla, had untreated asthma exacerbated by trauma. Dr. Gökyar not only provided treatment but arranged for a translator from her hometown and created a 'comfort corner' in his office with familiar scents and sounds. His holistic approach addressed both her physical breathing difficulties and anxiety-induced attacks, something no other doctor had considered.
