Prof. M.D. Turgut Aydın Reviews

As a 72-year-old woman, I was deeply embarrassed about my persistent pelvic organ prolapse, which made daily life difficult. Dr. Turgut Aydın approached my case with a dignity I hadn't felt in years. At Acibadem Atakent Hospital, he didn't just recommend surgery; he spent an hour with me and my daughter explaining the delicate laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy procedure using 3D anatomical models. What struck me was his focus on my quality of life post-recovery—discussing everything from gardening to my weekly swimming. The surgery was flawless, but his genuine respect for an elderly patient's autonomy was the real healing.

Our 14-year-old daughter was diagnosed with a complex ovarian cyst that required urgent attention. We were terrified of surgery for someone so young. Dr. Aydın created a completely different protocol—he involved a child psychologist in pre-op consultations and used virtual reality to show her what to expect. During the cystectomy at Acibadem Atakent, he employed a minimally invasive technique that left virtually no visible scarring, understanding adolescent self-image concerns. His follow-up included coordinating with her pediatrician and school nurse. He treated her not as a small adult, but as a whole person navigating a scary experience.

I arrived at the emergency department at 18 weeks pregnant with sudden, severe bleeding—convinced I was losing my baby. Dr. Aydın was called in at midnight and immediately identified a rare cervical ectopic pregnancy. Instead of standard treatment, he performed an emergency cervical cerclage combined with targeted embolization, a procedure he adapted on the spot. For three days, he slept at the hospital, monitoring me hourly. Not only did he save my pregnancy, but he also organized a multidisciplinary team including a perinatologist and hematologist for the remainder of my care. My daughter is now 2 months old—a miracle he fought for.

After five years of unexplained infertility and four failed IVF cycles elsewhere, we came to Dr. Aydın for what we thought would be a routine second opinion. He rejected the 'routine' approach entirely. He discovered I had a subtle uterine septum missed by previous scans and my husband had a previously undetected genetic translocation. Dr. Aydın designed a unique two-stage plan: a hysteroscopic septum resection followed by a tailored IVF protocol with preimplantation genetic testing. He personally coordinated with embryologists and genetic counselors at Acibadem Atakent. Our twins were born last month—a result of his willingness to question every assumption and create a truly personalized path.
