Patient Experience
Maya, a 34-year-old software engineer with a complex autoimmune disorder (lupus anticoagulant), suffered three consecutive second-trimester miscarriages. Dr. Çelik initiated a multidisciplinary protocol involving a hematologist. He managed her pregnancy with low-molecular-weight heparin, aspirin, and close fetal monitoring. Maya delivered a preterm but healthy boy at 34 weeks via cesarean due to placental insufficiency. The infant spent three weeks in NICU but thrived.
My 8-year-old son, Ali, was complaining of chest pain during football practice. We were terrified it could be something serious. Dr. Ercüment Yılmaz was incredibly gentle with him. He didn't just run tests; he explained what an echocardiogram was using a toy model of a heart. He discovered a very minor, harmless mitral valve prolapse that just needs monitoring. His ability to calm a frightened child and his parents while being thorough was exceptional. We left Acibadem Atasehir not scared, but educated.
I'm a 72-year-old retired engineer with a complex history of hypertension and a previous mild stroke. My case wasn't an emergency, but it was a puzzle. Dr. Yılmaz didn't just adjust my medications. He spent an hour cross-referencing my old ECGs, my new Holter monitor results, and even asked about my sleep patterns. He proposed a tailored medication schedule that synced with my body's rhythms, not just a standard prescription. This nuanced, almost detective-like approach to a non-emergency, chronic situation has given me better stability than I've had in years.
It started as severe indigestion at 3 AM. At Acibadem Atasehir's ER, they rushed me to cardiology. Dr. Yılmaz was there, calm amid the chaos. He looked at the initial ECG and said, 'This is not your stomach; a vessel is crying for help.' It was a 95% blockage in a critical artery. He performed the angiogram and stent placement himself. What stood out wasn't just the technical skill—it was how he spoke to my panicked wife during the procedure, giving her clear, minute-by-minute updates in the waiting room. He treated the family, not just the heart attack.
As a 45-year-old apparently healthy woman, my routine checkup with Dr. Yılmaz took an unexpected turn. He was reviewing my stress test and paused at a seemingly minor anomaly in the recovery phase—something others had overlooked for years. He called it 'electrical memory' and insisted on a more advanced cardiac MRI. It revealed early-stage sarcoidosis affecting my heart, a rare condition caught before any damage occurred. This wasn't a follow-up for a known issue; it was a doctor seeing the invisible in a routine visit. His obsessive attention to subtle details in a 'healthy' patient literally changed my life's trajectory.
I was impressed by the professional approach at Acibadem Atasehir Hospital. Dr. dr Erdem Terzi explained everything clearly and made me feel comfortable.

A 28-year-old female competitive freediver from Antalya presented with unexplained episodes of transient confusion and visual disturbances following deep dives. Conventional neurology workup was normal. Dr. Abamor performed a cerebral perfusion SPECT scan with a custom protocol simulating post-dive conditions, revealing a unique pattern of reversible temporal lobe hypoperfusion triggered by rapid pressure changes. The findings led to a new safety protocol for her training and prevented a potential career-ending injury.
A 72-year-old retired shipyard welder from Tuzla presented with progressive, debilitating bone pain. Multiple X-rays and MRIs were inconclusive. Dr. Abamor ordered a whole-body F-18 NaF PET/CT scan, which identified rare, multifocal skeletal fluorosis from decades of inhaling fluoride-containing fumes—a diagnosis missed for years. Treatment involved specialized chelation therapy and pain management, significantly improving his mobility.
A 9-year-old boy with a complex history of congenital heart disease and multiple surgeries presented with persistent, unexplained fevers. Blood cultures were repeatedly negative. Dr. Abamor performed a Ga-68 labeled white blood cell PET/CT, pinpointing a tiny, hidden focus of infection around a prosthetic valve suture line that echocardiography couldn't visualize. This allowed for targeted antibiotic therapy, avoiding another high-risk surgery.
A 45-year-old successful tech entrepreneur from Istanbul presented with severe, episodic hypertension and panic attacks. Endocrine testing suggested a possible pheochromocytoma, but anatomical imaging found nothing. Dr. Abamor conducted an I-123 MIBG SPECT/CT, which localized a minuscule extra-adrenal paraganglioma nestled between the renal artery and vein. Robotic surgery successfully removed it, curing his condition.
