M.D. Türker Kundak Reviews
Patient Experience
As a 78-year-old retired linguistics professor with complex polypharmacy, Dr. Kundak didn't just adjust my medications—he spent an hour discussing how each drug interacted with my circadian rhythm and cognitive patterns. His 'medication sunsetting' approach eliminated three unnecessary prescriptions and resolved my chronic dizziness that six other doctors had attributed to aging.
During a layover in Istanbul, I developed sudden high fever and confusion. Rushed to Acibadem, Dr. Kundak identified a rare tropical parasite I'd contracted in Southeast Asia weeks earlier. His global disease knowledge and immediate collaboration with infectious disease specialists saved me from organ failure during what was supposed to be a 6-hour transit.
My 14-year-old daughter's unexplained weight loss and fatigue were dismissed as 'teenage anxiety' until Dr. Kundak noticed subtle skin pigmentation changes. He diagnosed Addison's disease through meticulous physical examination before any lab tests confirmed it—a detective-like approach that prevented an adrenal crisis.
As a professional freediver, my declining performance metrics puzzled sports physicians. Dr. Kundak connected seemingly unrelated symptoms—mild tinnitus, occasional fingertip numbness, and exercise recovery time—to diagnose a previously undetected PFO (patent foramen ovale) requiring specialized intervention.
