M.D. Kamuran Mutluay Reviews

A 14-year-old competitive figure skater, Elif, presented with unexplained fatigue and declining performance. Dr. Mutluay discovered not overtraining, but a previously undiagnosed Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome during a routine ECG. She coordinated with pediatric cardiology for a successful catheter ablation. Elif returned to competition after 3 months, now with cardiac monitoring integrated into her training regimen.

Kaan, a 7-year-old from a Syrian refugee family with limited Turkish, was brought in for 'stomach pains.' Through a translator and careful observation, Dr. Mutluay identified the symptoms as somatic manifestations of severe school anxiety due to bullying. She arranged for a school counselor, Turkish language support, and family therapy sessions, resolving the physical symptoms within weeks.

Maya, a 2-year-old adopted from Kazakhstan six months prior, had failure to thrive and developmental delays. Dr. Mutluay suspected post-institutional autism spectrum disorder compounded by nutritional deficiencies. She created a multidisciplinary plan involving a pediatric nutritionist, occupational therapist, and child psychologist. After 8 months of intensive intervention, Maya showed remarkable catch-up growth and social engagement.

A 16-year-old aspiring pianist, Deniz, developed sudden, severe wrist pain. Other doctors suspected repetitive strain, but Dr. Mutluay ordered specific imaging that revealed a rare osteoid osteoma. She referred Deniz to interventional radiology for CT-guided radiofrequency ablation, preserving full mobility. Deniz performed in a national competition 4 months later.
