M.D. Özcan Inal Reviews

As a 78-year-old retired maritime historian, my complex medication regimen for atrial fibrillation, hypertension, and early-stage kidney disease had become a dangerous web of side effects. Dr. İnal didn't just adjust prescriptions; he spent three hours mapping my entire medical history onto a timeline, identifying a crucial interaction between a new antibiotic and my blood thinner that three previous doctors had missed. His holistic review felt like detective work that saved me from a potential stroke.

Our 16-year-old daughter, a competitive fencer, began experiencing extreme fatigue and joint pain that baffled sports physicians. Dr. İnal suspected something beyond overtraining and ordered a specific panel for autoimmune markers that revealed a rare presentation of juvenile dermatomyositis. His coordination with pediatric rheumatologists at Acıbadem created a treatment plan allowing her to return to training within months—a diagnosis everyone else had overlooked.

During a business trip from Oslo, I developed severe abdominal pain and was rushed to Acıbadem Kozyatağı. Dr. İnal, noticing my Norwegian medical records mentioned 'recurrent gastritis,' questioned the diagnosis entirely. Through meticulous examination and ultrasound, he identified gallstone pancreatitis requiring immediate intervention. His ability to connect disparate symptoms across language barriers prevented what could have become a life-threatening situation far from home.

My 42-year-old wife, a ceramic artist, had been dismissed by multiple doctors for 'stress-related symptoms' including weight loss, night sweats, and persistent cough. Dr. İnal listened to her description of clay dust exposure in her studio and ordered targeted tests revealing hypersensitivity pneumonitis—an environmental lung disease. His recognition of occupational health connections changed both her treatment and her studio ventilation practices.
