My 8-year-old son, Emre, was born with a complex congenital heart defect that multiple doctors called inoperable. We were preparing for the worst when we found Dr. Görmez. He spent three hours with us explaining a revolutionary hybrid procedure he'd pioneered at Acibadem Atasehir. The surgery lasted 11 hours—he came out personally at 2 AM to tell us it was successful. Six months later, Emre is playing football. Dr. Görmez doesn't just treat hearts; he rewrites destinies.
As a 72-year-old retired engineer, I approached my persistent atrial fibrillation logically. Dr. Görmez matched my analytical nature perfectly. Instead of just prescribing medication, he created a 3D printed model of my heart from the CT scan, showing exactly where the electrical misfires occurred. His catheter ablation was so precise I was off blood thinners in three weeks. At my follow-up, he remembered my granddaughter's name and asked about her piano recital. Technical brilliance with human touch.
I collapsed during a business meeting in Istanbul—complete cardiac arrest. The emergency team at Acibadem revived me, but Dr. Görmez was the one who discovered why: a previously undiagnosed Brugada syndrome hidden in my ECG. What stunned me was his approach: 'Your heart stopped, but your life doesn't have to.' He implanted a subcutaneous ICD that's invisible under my skin and designed a return-to-work plan that had me leading negotiations in 45 days. He treats emergencies like puzzles to be solved, not tragedies to be mourned.
For years, various cardiologists dismissed my chest tightness as anxiety since all tests were 'normal.' Dr. Görmez listened differently. He noticed a pattern others missed—symptoms only during specific arm movements. His suspicion of coronary artery compression led to a dynamic angiogram that revealed my left main artery being pinched between structures. The robotic-assisted surgery he performed was like something from science fiction. Now at 58, I've run my first 5K. He finds problems where others see none.
