M.D. Olcayto Incedere Reviews

I'm a 78-year-old retired history professor with a lifelong arrhythmia that five cardiologists called 'manageable.' Dr. İncedere was the first to truly listen to my description of the 'fluttering moth' sensation in my chest during my evening readings. Instead of just adjusting my medication, he connected it to my posture and digestion patterns. He designed a non-invasive monitoring plan using a special wearable device for two weeks. The result? A minor ablation procedure he performed with such precision that I was home in 24 hours. For the first time in decades, my heart beats with the steady rhythm of a metronome. His approach wasn't just clinical; it was historical—he treated my heart's story like an archive to be carefully decoded.

Our 8-year-old daughter, Elif, was born with a complex congenital heart defect. After three major surgeries elsewhere, we were told her case was 'as stable as it could be.' Dr. İncedere reviewed her files and noticed a subtle, worsening gradient in a pulmonary conduit that others had dismissed. He proposed a groundbreaking, hybrid catheter-based intervention he helped pioneer, avoiding open-heart surgery. The procedure at Bagdat Caddesi felt like science fiction—guided by real-time 3D imaging. Elif was drawing pictures six hours later. He doesn't just treat children; he sees the adult they will become and plans for a lifetime. His calm explanation to Elif, using a balloon and a straw, meant she wasn't scared. She now calls him 'Kalp Dedem' (My Heart Grandpa).

I'm a 42-year-old marathon runner who collapsed at the 35km mark of the Istanbul Marathon. Rushed to the emergency department, I was in severe cardiogenic shock—my EF was below 20%. Dr. İncedere was the on-call cardiologist. While others prepared for a long ICU battle, he identified a rare, acute viral myocarditis pattern amidst the chaos. He advocated for and managed a aggressive but tailored protocol of mechanical circulatory support (a temporary Impella device) and precise immunosuppression, avoiding permanent damage. He visited me multiple times daily, explaining each waveform on the monitor. Three months later, I'm not only alive but back to 80% of my aerobic capacity. He saved my heart muscle and my identity as an athlete. His emergency intuition is as sharp as his surgical skill.

As a 50-year-old with a strong family history of sudden cardiac death, my 'routine' checkup was fraught with anxiety. Dr. İncedere's approach was anything but routine. He spent 90 minutes on the first consultation, constructing a detailed genetic and lifestyle map. He ordered a cutting-edge genetic panel and a cardiac MRI, which revealed a previously undetected, non-scarring pattern of early cardiomyopathy. His plan wasn't just medication; it included a tailored nutrition protocol based on Mediterranean and Anatolian heart-healthy foods, and a specific exercise prescription to strengthen my heart muscle safely. His follow-up visits feel like collaborative strategy sessions. He didn't just give me a prescription; he gave me a personalized, proactive defense system. I feel like I have a guardian for my most vital organ.
