Assoc. Prof. Ozgur Sarica

Had my gallbladder out with Dr. Sarıca. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie, but his team had a clear plan for the pain that actually worked. He checked on me himself every morning and adjusted things based on how I was feeling. It wasn't just 'take these pills,' it felt like they were really managing it. I'm back home now and moving around way easier than I thought I would be this soon.

My mother was admitted with severe abdominal pain, and we were all terrified. Dr. Özgür Sarıca was the one who sat us down in a quiet room and explained everything in words we could actually understand, what might be wrong, what the next steps were. He didn't rush us and gave his direct number to the nurse for updates. That calm, clear communication while she was in surgery meant everything to our family. We felt looked after too.

Saw Dr. Sarıca at Anadolu. Fixed my issue, no nonsense. Explained what he was going to do, did it, and that was that. Parking at the hospital is always a nightmare, by the way.

I'd been putting off seeing someone about this nagging pain for months, just nervous about the whole hospital process. From the first appointment, Dr. Sarıca had this way of listening that made me feel heard. He walked me through the scans himself, drawing on a notepad to show me what was going on. The surgery day was a blur, but I remember him popping his head in before they wheeled me in, just saying 'We're ready when you are.' It was a small thing, but it cut through the anxiety. Recovery had its ups and downs, some days I was impatient, but his follow-up calls kept me on track. I'm not just fixed; I understand what happened, which is a different kind of relief.
