Patient Experience
Had my gallbladder out with Dr. Sarıca. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie, but his team had a clear plan for the pain that actually worked. He checked on me himself every morning and adjusted things based on how I was feeling. It wasn't just 'take these pills,' it felt like they were really managing it. I'm back home now and moving around way easier than I thought I would be this soon.
My mother was admitted with severe abdominal pain, and we were all terrified. Dr. Özgür Sarıca was the one who sat us down in a quiet room and explained everything in words we could actually understand, what might be wrong, what the next steps were. He didn't rush us and gave his direct number to the nurse for updates. That calm, clear communication while she was in surgery meant everything to our family. We felt looked after too.
Saw Dr. Sarıca at Anadolu. Fixed my issue, no nonsense. Explained what he was going to do, did it, and that was that. Parking at the hospital is always a nightmare, by the way.
I'd been putting off seeing someone about this nagging pain for months, just nervous about the whole hospital process. From the first appointment, Dr. Sarıca had this way of listening that made me feel heard. He walked me through the scans himself, drawing on a notepad to show me what was going on. The surgery day was a blur, but I remember him popping his head in before they wheeled me in, just saying 'We're ready when you are.' It was a small thing, but it cut through the anxiety. Recovery had its ups and downs, some days I was impatient, but his follow-up calls kept me on track. I'm not just fixed; I understand what happened, which is a different kind of relief.
My husband was in for a check-up, and honestly, we were both pretty nervous. The whole hospital thing can feel overwhelming. Dr. Beşikçi sat with me in the hallway after seeing him. She explained everything in simple terms, drew a little diagram on a notepad about what she was looking for, and answered all my worried questions without making me feel rushed. It was just a regular check-up, but she treated our concerns seriously. That meant a lot.
Took my mother to see Dr. Resmiye Beşikçi. Parking at Anadolu was a nightmare that day, so we were flustered when we arrived. The doctor was calm and direct. She listened to my mom's symptoms, asked me a few clarifying questions about what I'd noticed at home, and laid out a clear plan. No confusing medical jargon, just 'here's what we think is happening, and here are the next steps.' It cut through the anxiety immediately. We left feeling like we had a path forward.
After my son's appointment, I felt like I could finally breathe. Dr. Beşikçi has a very gentle way of talking. She didn't just address him; she included me the whole time, making sure I understood each part of the diagnosis. When I asked something twice, she just rephrased it patiently. It wasn't a dramatic situation, but her careful way of communicating made a stressful day much easier to handle. We're very grateful for her kindness.
What a relief! My sister had been feeling off for weeks, and we were going in circles. Dr. Beşikçi at Anadolu Medical Center actually listened, really listened, to the whole history. She connected dots others had missed. Her approach was so thorough and thoughtful. We had to wait a bit past our appointment time, but it was because she was giving someone else the same attention. You can tell she cares about getting it right. We left with answers and a real sense of hope.
My mom was admitted for a really bad infection and we were all scared. Dr. Genç was the one who actually sat us down in the family room and explained everything in a way that made sense. She didn't just talk to the chart, she looked at us. She called me directly with updates when I had to go back to work. That meant the world.
Our 8-year-old, Leo, had a high fever that wouldn't break and was complaining of a terrible stomach ache. We rushed to Anadolu Medical Center. Dr. Merve Genç was so calm with him. She got down to his level, asked him about his favorite cartoon character before she even touched his stomach. She figured out it was appendicitis quickly, explained the surgery to us without making it sound terrifying, and checked on him herself every few hours after. Seeing her reassure him made us breathe again.
Had a weird pain that wouldn't go away. Saw Dr. Genç. She listened, didn't rush me, ordered the right tests. Figured it out. Fixed it. What more do you want? Parking at the center is always a hassle, but she was worth it.
I've had this nagging cough for months. My previous doctor just kept giving me different antibiotics. I was starting to think it was all in my head. At my first appointment with Dr. Genç, I was nervous and just dumped all my frustrations out. She didn't seem annoyed at all. She asked about my work (I'm a painter), my house, everything. She had a hunch it might be allergy-related to some materials I use. Sent me for a specific test I'd never had before. Turns out, she was right. She called me with the results herself on a Friday evening. Started treatment and I've been feeling better week by week. It wasn't just about the medicine; it was about someone actually putting the pieces together.
I'd been to a few doctors about this persistent fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Alagiç was the first one who actually listened. She ordered a different set of tests that others hadn't thought of, and it turned out to be a pretty rare vitamin absorption issue. It wasn't a quick fix, but having a real answer after so long was a huge relief. She explained it all in a way I could actually understand, without talking down to me.
I needed a minor cyst removed, and honestly, I was nervous at first. But the whole thing at Anadolu was so straightforward. Dr. Alagiç walked me through each step before she did it, which helped a lot. The procedure itself was quick, and I barely felt a thing. I was in and out in a couple of hours, and the follow-up call from her nurse a few days later was a nice touch. It just felt very normal and well-managed.
The parking garage was completely full when I arrived for my appointment, which stressed me out. But once I got inside, the front desk staff were really calm and helped me sort it. The waiting area at the medical center is quiet and has these big windows, it doesn't feel like a hospital. Even the person who took my blood pressure was friendly and chatted about the weather. It made the whole visit less of a chore.
What I remember most about Dr. Alagiç is how she talks to you. She sits down, looks you in the eye, and never rushes. When I told her I was worried about some test results, she didn't just dismiss it; she took the time to go over the numbers again and explain what 'normal' really looks like. She has a very calm, direct way about her that makes you feel like you're in good hands, even when the news isn't perfect.
My husband had been feeling run down for weeks. We were worried, but Dr. Acay didn't rush us. He sat with us in his office at Anadolu, explained everything in simple terms, and laid out a clear plan. He answered all our questions, even the silly ones my husband was too embarrassed to ask. It made a scary time feel manageable.
Took my mother in. Parking was a hassle, I'll be honest. But once we saw Dr. Acay, it was different. He was direct. He told us what he thought was wrong, what tests he needed, and what the next steps were. No sugar-coating, but also no alarmist talk. We left knowing exactly what to expect. That's what we needed.
My son was so anxious about his check-up. Dr. Acay has a very calm way about him. He spoke softly, took his time, and made sure my boy understood what was happening before he did anything. It wasn't just a check-up; he made my child feel safe. That means more than any medicine sometimes.
Honestly, I was getting really worried after weeks of feeling run down. Seeing Dr. Bayraktar was such a relief! He figured things out quickly, explained it all in a way that actually made sense, and just had a really positive, can-do attitude. I left feeling like I finally had a handle on it. So glad I went!
