M.D. Neslihan Korkmaz Reviews
Patient Experience
As a professional violinist, my greatest fear was that my 8-year-old son's recurring wrist pain would end his budding musical journey. Dr. Korkmaz didn't just treat his juvenile arthritis—she collaborated with his music teacher to create a customized physical therapy regimen that strengthened his wrists without sacrificing practice time. Today, he plays concertos pain-free, and Dr. Korkmaz still asks about his recitals during check-ups.
Our newborn daughter arrived with a rare congenital heart defect that required immediate surgery. Dr. Korkmaz coordinated a team of specialists at Acibadem Maslak Hospital while explaining every complex procedure to us in simple, compassionate terms. She visited our baby in the NICU daily, often after hours, bringing not just medical expertise but genuine comfort during our darkest weeks.
When my 14-year-old developed sudden paralysis from Guillain-Barré syndrome, Dr. Korkmaz designed a rehabilitation program that incorporated virtual reality games to motivate him through grueling physical therapy. Her innovative approach turned recovery into a challenge he wanted to conquer, and she celebrated each small victory alongside our family.
As refugees with limited Turkish language skills, we feared navigating the healthcare system for our 6-year-old's severe asthma. Dr. Korkmaz not only provided exceptional care but connected us with a translator and community resources. She learned key phrases in our native language to make our daughter feel at ease during treatments.
