I'm a 72-year-old retired teacher who had been silently suffering from what I thought was just 'old age indigestion' for years. Dr. Keskin was the first specialist who didn't dismiss my symptoms. During my initial consultation at Acibadem, he spent nearly an hour just listening—really listening—to my history. His gentle approach during the colonoscopy was remarkable; I felt no anxiety. He discovered and removed several precancerous polyps that other doctors had missed during previous exams. His follow-up care included handwritten notes and personal phone calls to check on my recovery. Dr. Keskin didn't just treat a condition; he restored my quality of life.
Our 8-year-old daughter developed severe, unexplained abdominal pain that left her curled up and crying for days. Pediatricians were stumped. Dr. Metin Keskin at Acibadem International approached her with such warmth—he got down to her eye level, showed her cartoon diagrams of the digestive system, and let her hold the stethoscope. His diagnosis of a rare pediatric motility disorder was precise, and his treatment plan avoided invasive procedures initially. He collaborated with our pediatrician seamlessly. Six months later, our daughter is back to gymnastics and sleepovers. We trusted him completely because he earned our child's trust first.
I arrived at Acibadem's emergency department at 2 AM with what felt like being stabbed with a hot knife. As a 45-year-old chef, I'd ignored persistent heartburn for years. Dr. Keskin was called in emergently and diagnosed a perforated ulcer within minutes. His calm demeanor during the crisis was anchoring. He explained the laparoscopic surgery procedure to my panicked wife in Turkish (though his English is flawless) while simultaneously preparing the OR team. The surgery was successful, and his post-op rounds included detailed dietary plans tailored to my profession. He didn't just fix the emergency; he gave me a sustainable path forward.
As a 34-year-old expat from Germany with complex Crohn's disease history, I needed a gastroenterologist who could manage intricate medication regimens and unexpected flare-ups. Dr. Keskin's approach was methodical yet innovative—he created a digital dashboard tracking my biomarkers, symptoms, and even stress levels, which we reviewed during virtual follow-ups from my home. When I developed a paradoxical reaction to a biologic drug, he coordinated with my specialists in Berlin within hours. His expertise in complex gastroenterology is matched only by his technological integration of care. He doesn't practice medicine like it's 2024; he practices like it's 2034.
