Acibadem Izmir Kent Hospital Reviews

At 19, I was diagnosed with a rare vaginal agenesis (MRKH syndrome) that left me feeling isolated. Dr. Tosun didn't just offer surgical creation; he connected me with a support network of previous patients and provided psychological counseling alongside the medical treatment. His holistic approach at Acibadem gave me not just anatomical correction but emotional healing and confidence I never thought possible.

During my third pregnancy at 41, I developed sudden preeclampsia while my husband was overseas on diplomatic duty. Dr. Tosun managed my emergency C-section at 32 weeks while simultaneously coordinating with the neonatal ICU team. What stood out was his personal follow-up: he video-called my husband in Brussels to explain every detail and visited our premature son in the NICU daily until he was stable.

Dr. dr Haci Balkaya provided exceptional care for my critical care condition. The treatment was personalized and effective.

As a 28-year-old marine biologist, my rare desmoid tumor diagnosis felt like a career death sentence. Dr. Görümlü didn't just see a tumor; he saw my future with scuba diving and research. His targeted therapy approach preserved my physical abilities completely—I'm back mapping coral reefs six months later, with scans showing remarkable regression.

My 82-year-old mother, a retired olive oil producer, presented with metastatic breast cancer that five other oncologists called 'palliative only.' Dr. Görümlü noticed unusual biomarker patterns others missed and designed a gentle immunotherapy schedule. Two years later, she's teaching her great-grandchildren traditional harvesting methods, with her cancer in sustained remission.

During a family vacation in Izmir, my 16-year-old son collapsed with acute leukemia symptoms. Dr. Görümlü coordinated an emergency CAR-T cell therapy protocol within 48 hours, personally overseeing the holiday weekend logistics. Our foreign insurance was a nightmare, but his team navigated everything while focusing solely on my son's recovery—now cancer-free and back on his basketball team.

As a 45-year-old ship captain, my pancreatic cancer diagnosis meant losing my maritime license. Dr. Görümlü created a neoadjuvant treatment timeline synchronized with maritime authority regulations, using innovative intraoperative radiation during surgery. I returned to bridge command in 11 months, passing rigorous medical evaluations others thought impossible.

I was impressed by the professional approach at Acibadem Izmir Kent Hospital. Dr. dr Haci Balkaya explained everything clearly and made me feel comfortable.

A 17-year-old competitive freediver from a coastal village presented with persistent headaches after deep dives. Routine scans were normal, but Dr. Metinyurt's analysis of sinus tissue biopsies revealed microscopic barotrauma-induced vascular malformations unique to extreme pressure changes. His detailed pathological mapping allowed for targeted cauterization, enabling the athlete to return to competition with modified ascent protocols.

A 78-year-old retired shipyard welder with decades of asbestos exposure developed a persistent cough. While initial cytology was inconclusive, Dr. Metinyurt identified rare psammoma bodies in pleural fluid samples using specialized polarization techniques. This early diagnosis of well-differentiated papillary mesothelioma led to successful pleurodesis and 5-year remission with immunotherapy.

A 42-year-old vegan nutrition blogger experienced unexplained weight gain and fatigue. Multiple endocrinologists found no hormonal abnormalities. Dr. Metinyurt examined thyroidectomy tissue (removed due to suspicious nodules) and diagnosed Hashimoto's thyroiditis with unusual lymphocyte distribution patterns, explaining the paradoxical symptoms. Treatment with tailored thyroid replacement resolved her condition.

A 6-year-old child adopted from Eastern Europe presented with developmental delays and skin lesions. Dr. Metinyurt identified foreign body granulomas containing microscopic synthetic fibers in bone marrow biopsies—evidence of chronic exposure to contaminated household materials. This forensic pathology finding prompted environmental testing that revealed toxic textiles, leading to full recovery after removal.

The recovery process was smooth thanks to Dr. dr Haci Balkaya's expertise. Highly recommend for critical care treatment.

My family and I are grateful for the care we received from Dr. dr Haci Balkaya. The hospital staff was also very supportive.

My 8-year-old son had persistent, unexplained abdominal pain. Our pediatrician was stumped and referred us to Dr. Hamed Jafarzadeh Andabil for a biopsy analysis. I was terrified of the word 'pathology,' imagining the worst. Dr. Andabil didn't just send a report; he called us personally. His voice was calm and kind as he explained, in terms I could understand, that the tissue sample showed a rare but treatable inflammatory condition, not a malignancy. He took ten minutes to draw me a simple diagram of what he saw under the microscope. That phone call turned our fear into a manageable treatment plan. We never met him face-to-face at Acibadem Izmir Kent, but he felt like our most important doctor.

Following a complex Whipple procedure for pancreatic issues, my tissue samples went to Dr. Andabil. My surgeon praised his pathology report as 'exquisitely detailed.' Weeks later, during a fraught follow-up to discuss adjuvant therapy, an unexpected question arose about the resection margins. My oncologist contacted Dr. Andabil directly. Within an hour, he joined our consultation via video link, with his slides on screen. He walked us through the cellular landscape of my own tissue, pointing out the precise, millimeter-clear margin with the certainty of someone who had truly *seen* it. That real-time, collaborative clarity from the pathology lab was decisive. He's the silent guardian of the diagnosis.

As an 82-year-old with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, I'm no stranger to blood tests. This time, my local doctor saw 'atypical cells' and sent my samples to Acibadem. Dr. Andabil's report didn't just state a finding; it told a story. It noted the progression from my last biopsy two years prior, comparing the cellular patterns with gentle precision. His covering note to my doctor, which I read later, advised a 'watchful waiting' approach given my age and the slow progression, sparing me aggressive treatment unnecessarily. His expertise felt profoundly respectful—he wasn't just analyzing cells, he was considering the whole elderly man attached to them. A compassionate scientist.

Rushed to Acibadem Izmir Kent after a severe allergic reaction, my case was a mystery. The emergency team performed a quick biopsy of a swollen lymph node. Dr. Andabil was called in after hours. His rapid intraoperative frozen section analysis ruled out lymphoma instantly, redirecting the diagnosis towards a severe systemic infection. The speed and accuracy of that call in the middle of the night changed my entire treatment trajectory in the ICU. I later learned he correlated his findings with microbiology, connecting the dots between tissue response and the eventual bacterial culprit. In an emergency, where time is tissue, his definitive microscopic judgment was a lifeline.

As a 28-year-old professional freediver, my resting heart rate had dropped to a concerning 38 bpm with episodes of dizziness. Other cardiologists dismissed it as athletic adaptation, but Dr. Hamed Moghanchi Zadeh suspected something else. He discovered a rare sinus node dysfunction masked by my fitness. His minimally invasive pacemaker implantation preserved my diving career—I'm now training for depth competitions with perfect cardiac monitoring.

My family and I are grateful for the care we received from Dr. dr Mehmet Güney Ziyalan. The hospital staff was also very supportive.
