Patient Experience
As a diplomat family newly posted to Istanbul, our 8-year-old daughter developed severe, unexplained hives that baffled local clinics. Dr. Müjde didn't just treat symptoms—she discovered a rare allergy to a preservative in Turkish bread, unseen in our home country. Her cultural-medical insight gave us not just treatment but a roadmap for living safely in a new environment.
My 16-year-old son, a competitive freediver, began experiencing syncope episodes after deep dives. Standard cardiology found nothing. Dr. Müjde connected his symptoms to a previously undiagnosed mild form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome affecting vascular response. Her niche understanding of extreme sports physiology literally saved him from a dangerous passion.
Our newborn twins arrived at 32 weeks via emergency C-section. While the NICU handled their immediate needs, Dr. Müjde noticed subtle neurological differences in one twin's feeding reflexes others missed. Her early intervention for what turned out to be a mild cranial nerve issue prevented months of feeding tube dependency.
A 12-year-old refugee from Syria presented with what appeared to be severe PTSD symptoms. Dr. Müjde, recognizing nuances in his tremors, ordered specific tests revealing Wilson's disease—a completely treatable metabolic disorder masked by trauma. She restored not just his health but his family's hope.
