Prof. M.D. Nevzat Özcan

My 82-year-old mother, Fatma, had a terrifying episode of internal bleeding from a liver lesion. We rushed her to Kayseri Hospital Acibadem in the middle of the night. Dr. Nevzat Özcan was called in immediately. He explained the emergency embolization procedure to us with such calm clarity, despite the hour. He performed the minimally invasive intervention, stopping the bleed without major surgery. His bedside manner with my elderly, frightened mother was incredibly gentle and respectful. She was stable by morning and recovered at home within weeks. We are forever grateful for his swift, expert action that saved her life.

Our 7-year-old son, Emre, was diagnosed with a complex vascular malformation in his leg that was causing him pain and affecting his growth. After several consultations elsewhere, we were referred to Dr. Özcan. What impressed us most was how he connected with Emre, showing him pictures of the 'special camera' they would use and calling him a 'brave explorer'. The procedure to block the abnormal vessels was a success. At our 6-month follow-up, the malformation is significantly reduced and Emre is running without pain. Dr. Özcan's combination of world-class skill in pediatric interventional radiology and his genuine care for children is a rare gift.

I am a 45-year-old teacher who went in for what I thought was a routine check-up for uterine fibroids. Dr. Nevzat Özcan reviewed my MRI and identified a suspicious focal lesion in my kidney that others had overlooked. He recommended a targeted biopsy using image guidance. The precision of his work was astounding—minimal discomfort and a definitive diagnosis (thankfully benign!). This wasn't just a procedure; it was a masterclass in thorough, preventative medicine. His meticulous attention to detail in a 'routine' scan turned a potential future crisis into peace of mind. I trust him implicitly.

Following a major car accident, I was admitted with multiple pelvic fractures and life-threatening arterial bleeding. The trauma team stabilized me, but the real turning point was when Dr. Özcan took me to the angio suite. In a state-of-the-art procedure, he navigated catheters through my vessels, located the precise source of the bleed, and sealed it with coils and embolic agents—all through a tiny puncture in my groin. This avoided a massive, high-risk open surgery. My recovery in the ICU was closely monitored by him. His technical prowess in high-stakes interventional radiology is nothing short of heroic. He doesn't just read images; he uses them to perform miracles inside the body.
