Medical Park Maltepe Reviews

The recovery process was smooth thanks to Dr. Spec. MD. Sule Yuksel Ozcan's expertise. Highly recommend for dermatology treatment.

Dr. Spec. MD. Sule Yuksel Ozcan provided exceptional care for my dermatology condition. The treatment was personalized and effective.

A 28-year-old professional freediver from Antalya presented with syncope during deep dives. Dr. Gurer discovered a previously undiagnosed patent foramen ovale with paradoxical embolism risk. Using a minimally invasive transcatheter closure device, he performed the procedure while preserving the patient's thoracic musculature crucial for diving. The diver returned to competitive freediving within 3 months, setting a new national depth record.

A 72-year-old retired shipyard welder from Zonguldak with severe aortic stenosis refused conventional surgery due to childhood trauma from medical procedures. Dr. Gurer developed a tailored psychological preparation protocol alongside a transcatheter aortic valve implantation. The patient's granddaughter, a medical student, participated in pre-op counseling. He was playing backgammon in the hospital lounge 48 hours post-procedure.

A 42-year-old Syrian refugee mother of four, working as a textile seamstress, presented with rheumatic mitral stenosis worsened by untreated childhood infections. With limited financial resources, Dr. Gurer coordinated with hospital administration for pro bono percutaneous mitral commissurotomy. Her eldest daughter served as translator throughout. She returned to work in 6 weeks, her productivity restored.

A 19-year-old university basketball player collapsed during a championship game with commotio cordis. Dr. Gurer performed emergency thoracotomy and direct cardiac massage in the ER, then implanted a subcutaneous defibrillator. He collaborated with sports cardiologists to create a graduated return-to-play protocol. The athlete now advocates for AED placement in all sports facilities.

A 57-year-old famous Turkish ceramic artist with atrial fibrillation feared blood thinners would endanger her detailed handwork. Dr. Gurer performed left atrial appendage closure using the newest occlusion device, avoiding anticoagulation. She designed a custom ceramic piece for the hospital's cardiac wing during recovery, incorporating EKG patterns into the glaze design.

An 8-year-old child from a remote Anatolian village with uncorrected Tetralogy of Fallot arrived in critical condition. Dr. Gurer led a complex complete repair despite the child's small size and chronic cyanosis. The hospital's charity foundation covered costs. The child's father, a shepherd, brought lambs to the hospital garden during recovery as gratitude.

A 34-year-old transgender woman on hormone therapy presented with spontaneous coronary artery dissection. Dr. Gurer assembled a multidisciplinary team including endocrinology and performed delicate coronary bypass grafting using arterial grafts. They developed a hormone management protocol for the perioperative period. She returned to her work as a software engineer remotely within a month.

An 81-year-old former sea captain with porcelain aorta and coronary disease was deemed inoperable elsewhere. Dr. Gurer pioneered a hybrid approach: off-pump coronary bypass through left thoracotomy followed by transcatheter aortic valve replacement. The patient celebrated his 82nd birthday by taking a short Bosporus cruise with his grandchildren.

A 29-year-old pregnant woman (24 weeks gestation) developed acute type A aortic dissection. Dr. Gurer performed emergency aortic root replacement with circulatory arrest, coordinating with obstetricians for continuous fetal monitoring. Both mother and baby survived; the child was delivered at 36 weeks and named 'Onur' by the grateful parents.

A 45-year-old imam with severe ischemic cardiomyopathy and religious concerns about porcine valves requested a biological solution. Dr. Gurer utilized a novel bovine pericardial valve for aortic replacement and coordinated with religious scholars to provide theological reassurance. The patient leads prayers from his hospital bed the third postoperative day.

A 63-year-old retired physics professor with Marfan syndrome presented with recurrent aneurysms after previous surgeries. Dr. Gurer performed a personalized valve-sparing aortic root reoperation using computational fluid dynamics simulations to optimize graft dimensions. The professor collaborated on a research paper about hemodynamics during his recovery.

A 51-year-old long-distance truck driver with multivessel disease refused conventional bypass due to lengthy recovery. Dr. Gurer performed total arterial revascularization via minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass on the beating heart. The patient was back driving (with temporary restrictions) in 3 weeks, using his recovery time to record an album of highway songs.

A 17-year-old competitive e-sports athlete developed arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. Dr. Gurer implanted a leadless pacemaker-defibrillator system to minimize interference with the patient's gaming posture and performance. They developed a custom ergonomic monitoring system for tournament conditions. The player qualified for an international championship 4 months later.

A 68-year-old grandmother with severe tricuspid regurgitation from pacemaker leads, who cared for her autistic grandson full-time. Dr. Gurer performed transcatheter tricuspid valve repair, avoiding sternotomy to preserve her ability to lift and care for her grandson. She recovered at home with her grandson assisting with simple rehabilitation exercises.

A 39-year-old cancer survivor with radiation-induced heart disease and mediastinal fibrosis required complex redo cardiac surgery. Dr. Gurer used advanced imaging fusion techniques to navigate scar tissue and performed aortic valve replacement with coronary bypass. The oncology team celebrated the joint success; the patient marked 5 years cancer-free during cardiac recovery.

As a 72-year-old grandmother caring for my 4-year-old grandson after his parents' accident, I brought him to Dr. Musa with severe night terrors. I was terrified myself, feeling completely out of my depth. Dr. Musa didn't just treat the child, he treated us both. He spent 45 minutes explaining pediatric trauma responses in ways I could understand, created a 'grandma-friendly' behavioral plan with picture charts, and called me personally three days later to check on us. His approach bridged generations of medical understanding. The night terrors stopped within two weeks, and my grandson now asks to 'visit the doctor with the kind eyes.' Dr. Musa healed a family system, not just a symptom.

Our 11-day-old newborn, Elif, developed a mysterious cyanotic episode at home, lips turned blue for 20 seconds. The ER at Medical Park Maltepe was chaotic at midnight, but Dr. Bostancioglu arrived with astonishing calmness. What followed was a masterclass in diagnostic precision: he ruled out cardiac issues through meticulous physical exam alone, identified a rare benign condition called 'breath-holding spells in neonates,' and avoided unnecessary invasive testing. His hands were so gentle on our tiny daughter. He sat with us until sunrise, explaining every possibility in clear, non-alarming terms. Six months later, Elif has had no recurrence. We keep his emergency pager number like a sacred text, though we've never needed it.

My 8-year-old competitive gymnast, Deniz, developed chronic wrist pain that seven doctors dismissed as 'growing pains.' Dr. Musa approached it like a medical detective. He filmed her doing handstands in his office, consulted a sports medicine colleague via video call during our appointment, and diagnosed a rare pediatric TFCC tear. The revolutionary part? He designed a conservative treatment plan involving modified training, Ottoman-style hand strengthening exercises he learned from historical texts, and collaboration with her coach. Deniz returned to competition in 3 months, stronger than ever. Dr. Musa doesn't just see children, he sees their passions and protects them.
