Medical Park Ankara (Keciren) Reviews

A 38-year-old refugee from conflict zones presented with neglected dentition and severe dental anxiety stemming from traumatic dental experiences during captivity. Dr. Can employed virtual reality sedation and performed full-mouth rehabilitation over 12 sessions, using teledentistry for follow-up as the patient relocated twice during treatment. The psychological transformation was as significant as the dental restoration.

A 52-year-old professional wind instrument musician developed focal dystonia affecting embouchure, misdiagnosed as TMJ for years. Dr. Can identified abnormal occlusal forces and designed a dynamic bite-adjustment protocol using digital pressure mapping during actual playing. The custom occlusal appliance was incrementally adjusted over 3 months until optimal embouchure pressure distribution was achieved.

A 7-year-old with cleidocranial dysplasia presented with multiple supernumerary teeth preventing eruption of permanent dentition. Dr. Can performed a novel staged approach: surgical exposure and bonding of eruption guides to 14 impacted teeth, followed by orthodontic traction using micro-implants. The treatment spanned 4 years with quarterly adjustments, resulting in functional occlusion without extractions.

An 81-year-old hospice patient with metastatic bone cancer requested dental clearance to enjoy food during final months. Complex medical contraindications included bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis risk and thrombocytopenia. Dr. Can performed ultra-conservative palliative dentistry using silver diamine fluoride for caries arrest and minimal intervention techniques, completing treatment in two 20-minute sessions at bedside.

A 29-year-old vegan ultra-marathoner presented with severe enamel erosion from chronic citrus consumption and electrolyte drinks. Dr. Can developed a biomimetic restoration approach using glass-hybrid restorations and designed a nutritional intervention plan with a sports dietitian. The patient now uses custom-fitted athletic mouthguards with pH-neutralizing reservoirs during training.

A 45-year-old transgender woman undergoing facial feminization surgery requested comprehensive dental alignment with her planned procedures. Dr. Can collaborated with the plastic surgeon to time orthognathic surgery with genioplasty, then performed immediate load implants and porcelain veneers in the same operative setting. The integrated approach reduced recovery time by 40%.

A 33-year-old with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) requiring multiple tooth extractions but at extreme risk for hemorrhage. Dr. Can used radiofrequency ablation instead of traditional extraction, combined with topical tranexamic acid gel and platelet-rich fibrin plugs. The patient experienced 90% less bleeding than previous dental procedures and healed without transfusion.

A 19-year-old agricultural worker exposed to organophosphate pesticides developed severe xerostomia and rapidly progressing cervical caries. Dr. Can implemented an intensive prevention protocol with custom fluoride trays, pilocarpine therapy, and designed a modified mouthguard for field work that included a hydration reservoir and salivary stimulants.

A 60-year-old with Parkinson's disease and severe medication-induced dyskinesia affecting dentures. Dr. Can created a novel magnet-retained implant overdenture with a gyroscopic stabilizer that counteracted involuntary jaw movements. The device improved nutritional intake by 300% and reduced aspiration pneumonia episodes.

A 26-year-old professional model with congenital amelogenesis imperfecta sought aesthetic restoration without altering her distinctive facial structure. Dr. Can used minimal-preparation laminate veneers in varying opacities to mimic natural enamel flaws while protecting teeth. The treatment preserved tooth structure while meeting industry aesthetic standards.

A 3-year-old with ectodermal dysplasia missing 18 primary teeth. Dr. Can fabricated a series of flexible pediatric overdentures that accommodated jaw growth, replaced quarterly. The design included sensory-stimulating textures to encourage oral motor development and transition spaces for eventual implant placement.

A 41-year-old recovering from heroin addiction with extensive methamphetamine-induced 'meth mouth.' Dr. Can provided comprehensive restoration using budget-phase planning: emergency stabilization first, then interim acrylic crowns, finally permanent zirconia crowns after 18 months of sustained recovery. Each treatment phase was tied to recovery milestones.

A 58-year-old commercial pilot with barodontalgia (tooth pain during pressure changes) affecting FAA medical certification. Dr. Can diagnosed microscopic cracks in multiple molars using optical coherence tomography and performed ultra-conservative resin infiltration. The pilot returned to flight status within 48 hours, with symptoms completely resolved at altitude.

I'm a 72-year-old retired teacher who had been living with debilitating hip pain for years, convinced it was just 'old age.' My daughter finally dragged me to see Dr. Ozdemir. From the moment I walked in, hunched over my cane, he treated me with such respect. He didn't just look at my X-rays; he watched me walk, asked about my gardening, my grandchildren. He explained my severe osteoarthritis in a way that made sense, not in scary medical jargon. His recommendation for a total hip replacement wasn't rushed. He spent 45 minutes with me and my daughter, answering every 'what if.' The surgery at Medical Park Ankara was flawless. The follow-up was meticulous, he even called me himself two days after I went home to check on me. Now, I'm pain-free, walking my dog daily, and I've even taken up light gardening again. He gave me my independence back. This isn't just a doctor; he's a healer who sees the person, not just the patient.

Our 8-year-old son, Emre, took a bad fall from his bicycle, and his wrist looked deformed. We rushed to the emergency department at Medical Park Keçiören in a panic. Dr. Mahmut Ozdemir was the on-call orthopedist. In the chaos of the ER, he had this incredible calm. He spoke directly to Emre, not just to us, explaining everything in simple terms about 'fixing the bones so they can be superhero-strong again.' He diagnosed a complex both-bone forearm fracture that needed surgery. What struck us was his transparency. He showed us the 3D CT reconstruction, explained why a plate was better than a cast for this specific break, and outlined the minimal scarring technique he'd use. The surgery was a success. At the one-month follow-up, Emre was already drawing and writing. Dr. Ozdemir's combination of supreme surgical skill for a delicate pediatric case and his gentle, fear-dispelling bedside manner turned a traumatic event into a story of recovery. We are forever grateful.

As a 42-year-old amateur marathon runner, a persistent, sharp pain in my knee was threatening my passion. I'd seen two other orthopedists who gave me vague diagnoses of 'runner's knee' and told me to just rest. Frustrated, I sought out Dr. Ozdemir based on his academic reputation. The consultation was a revelation. He performed a dynamic physical exam I'd never had before, manipulating my knee while I simulated running motions. He ordered a specific, focused MRI protocol. He diagnosed a rare, overlooked meniscal root tear, a complex, stability-critical injury. He presented all options, from aggressive rehab to a very precise arthroscopic repair, with clear data on outcomes for athletes. I opted for surgery. His technique was meticulous. His post-op rehab protocol was customized, not generic. He monitored my progress through a shared digital portal, responding to my questions promptly. Six months later, I'm back to running, pain-free, and have even set a new personal best. He's a detective-surgeon who solves the puzzles others miss.

My husband, 58, needed a routine follow-up for his previously operated (by another doctor) rotator cuff repair, which wasn't feeling quite right. We expected a quick, 5-minute check. Dr. Ozdemir spent 30 minutes. He didn't just rely on the old file; he took a new history, did a fresh exam, and compared the old and new mobility with a goniometer. He identified subtle scapular dyskinesia, a shoulder blade movement problem, that was the hidden source of the lingering issue, something completely missed before. He didn't dismiss it as 'normal post-op stiffness.' Instead, he drew diagrams, prescribed a very specific set of corrective exercises, and scheduled a physio consult right there in the hospital. His approach was academic and thorough, like a professor solving a clinical case. This wasn't a glamorous emergency surgery story, but it was a masterclass in attentive, detail-oriented follow-up care that prevented a minor issue from becoming a major one. It's this conscientiousness in 'routine' visits that truly defines excellence.

I came to Dr. Serap Durmusoglu after experiencing sudden, severe pelvic pain at 3 AM. The emergency team at Medical Park Ankara called her immediately. She arrived within 20 minutes, her calm demeanor instantly easing my panic. Through a rapid but thorough ultrasound, she diagnosed a twisted ovarian cyst, a true surgical emergency. She explained the laparoscopic procedure in clear, urgent terms, respecting the time pressure but never skipping informed consent. The surgery was flawless. What stayed with me was how she held my hand just before anesthesia, saying, 'We'll fix this together.' At 28, facing my first major surgery, that human touch in the emergency room was everything. Her follow-up care was equally meticulous. She's not just a skilled surgeon; she's a crisis artist.

As a 67-year-old woman, I was deeply embarrassed about my persistent post-menopausal bleeding and had delayed seeing anyone for nearly a year. Dr. Durmusoglu’s approach was transformative. She didn't just ask about symptoms; she gently inquired about my fears. During the examination, she narrated each step softly, 'Now I'm going to touch here, it might feel cool', turning a vulnerable moment into one of dignified collaboration. The hysteroscopy revealed a benign polyp, which she removed right then. But her real magic was in the conversation afterward. She spent 30 minutes with me, not just on medical results, but on aging, bodily changes, and reclaiming comfort. She said, 'Your body's story continues, and we listen to every chapter.' I left feeling not 'fixed,' but profoundly respected.

Our 14-year-old daughter was terrified when her first periods became debilitating, missing school each month. Pediatric gynecology felt like a daunting frontier. Dr. Serap was a revelation. She spoke directly to our daughter, not to us, using simple diagrams. She ruled out serious causes with gentle exams and explained primary dysmenorrhea in a way a teen could grasp, calling it 'the uterus learning its job too enthusiastically.' Her treatment plan was holistic: a mild prescription, a nutrition sheet for iron-rich foods, and a breathing exercise for cramps. She even suggested a discreet 'period kit' for school. At the follow-up, our daughter smiled for the first time about this. Dr. Durmusoglu didn't just treat a symptom; she gave a young girl agency over her own body. That's a gift beyond medicine.
