Prof. Yener KOC

I'd been to a few doctors about this persistent fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone had a different theory. Honestly, I was starting to think it was all in my head. Dr. Yener Koç listened to the whole confusing history, asked questions no one else had, and ordered a specific scan. Turns out it was a rare type of abdominal adhesion. He explained it in a way that finally made sense, and the surgery he planned fixed it. I feel like myself again.

Needed my gallbladder out. Was nervous, of course, but the whole thing was so straightforward. Dr. Koç walked me through exactly what would happen, no sugar-coating but no unnecessary drama either. The surgery itself was fine, recovery was exactly as he said it would be. Sometimes you just want things to go to plan, and this did. Back to my normal routine in no time.

The place itself (Emsey Hospital) is nice and calm, which helps when you're anxious. But what really stood out was the team. The nurse who did my pre-op checks saw I was fidgeting and just chatted with me about my dog for a few minutes, totally distracted me. The front desk sorted out my paperwork without any fuss. It felt like everyone was actually paying attention.

What I remember most is how Dr. Koç talked to my elderly mother. She was scared and hard of hearing. He didn't just repeat himself louder; he sat down, looked right at her, and drew a simple diagram on his notepad to show what was going on with her hernia. He treated her with such patience and respect. That meant more to our family than any medical jargon ever could.
