Explore real stories from individuals who have trusted Prof. M.D. Serhat Çelikel with their health.
As a 72-year-old retired glassblower, I developed a persistent cough with colored phlegm that wouldn't clear. Dr. Çelikel didn't just prescribe antibiotics—he discovered I had a rare occupational lung condition called silicosis from decades of inhaling fine glass particles. His treatment plan included specialized pulmonary rehabilitation at Acibadem Maslak that taught me breathing techniques I still use daily. He even connected me with other former artisans for support.
My 8-year-old daughter, a competitive synchronized swimmer, began experiencing unexplained shortness of breath during routines. Multiple doctors dismissed it as anxiety until Dr. Çelikel conducted exercise-induced bronchospasm testing in their specialized pulmonary function lab. He diagnosed exercise-induced asthma and created a personalized pre-competition inhaler protocol that allowed her to win her first regional championship without breathing difficulties.
During a business trip to Istanbul, I developed sudden chest pain and coughing up blood. Rushed to Acibadem Maslak's emergency department, Dr. Çelikel diagnosed a pulmonary embolism from a previously undetected genetic clotting disorder. His rapid intervention with catheter-directed thrombolysis saved my life. He then coordinated with my home country's medical team for seamless continuity of care.
As a 45-year-old beekeeper, I developed worsening respiratory symptoms that seasonal allergy treatments couldn't resolve. Dr. Çelikel identified hypersensitivity pneumonitis from prolonged exposure to organic antigens in beehives. His innovative treatment combined medication with practical modifications to my protective gear and hive ventilation systems, allowing me to continue my family's century-old apiary tradition safely.
