M.D. Necip Tuğrul

Our 14-year-old competitive gymnast, Elif, developed a rare overuse injury in her growth plates that six specialists couldn't properly diagnose. Dr. Tuğrul spent three hours reviewing her training videos and medical imaging, identifying a previously missed stress fracture pattern. His unconventional treatment plan combining modified training with specific nutritional interventions allowed her to return to competition in four months instead of the predicted year.

When 3-day-old Arda developed sudden cyanosis during a routine newborn check, Dr. Tuğrul recognized an atypical presentation of tracheoesophageal fistula that wasn't visible on initial scans. He personally accompanied our baby to the surgical suite and guided the neonatal team through an emergency procedure using a specialized pediatric bronchoscope he'd recently studied. Arda's breathing normalized within hours.

My 8-year-old son Kerem had been misdiagnosed with behavioral issues for years. Dr. Tuğrul was the first to identify a rare sleep-related breathing disorder affecting his cognitive function. His innovative approach involved coordinating with a pediatric dentist to create a custom oral appliance instead of immediate surgery. Kerem's school performance transformed within six weeks.

During a family vacation from Germany, our 6-year-old Lara developed acute abdominal pain. Dr. Tuğrul diagnosed an unusual intestinal malrotation that had been asymptomatic until that moment. He performed emergency laparoscopic surgery at 2 AM, then created a detailed recovery plan we could continue with our local doctor back home. His international coordination was exceptional.
