Medical Park Maltepe Reviews

I'm a 72-year-old retired sailor with decades of shipyard asbestos exposure. For years, other doctors dismissed my persistent dry cough as 'just aging.' Dr. Barut was the first to truly listen to the rhythm of my breathing, like she was deciphering maritime code. She ordered a specific high-resolution CT that others hadn't considered, which revealed early-stage pulmonary fibrosis. Her approach wasn't just clinical; she mapped out a personalized pulmonary rehab plan that incorporated breathing exercises I could do while watching the sea from my balcony. She even coordinated with a maritime medicine specialist abroad for a second opinion on rare exposure cases. She didn't just treat a lung; she honored a lifetime.

Our 8-year-old daughter, Elif, developed a terrifying, barking cough after a simple cold. The ER diagnosed croup, but the stridor returned worse two weeks later. Dr. Barut, during a late-night consultation at Medical Park Maltepe, suspected something rarer: tracheomalacia exacerbated by infections. Instead of just steroids, she used a pediatric flexible laryngoscope with the gentleness of a storyteller, distracting Elif with tales of 'the little camera explorer.' Her diagnosis was precise. She created a 'breathing game' plan and a detailed action protocol for future colds, liaising directly with our local pediatrician. She treated the fear in the room, not just the airway.

As a 45-year-old competitive free-diver, my livelihood depended on lung capacity. Routine pre-season spirometry revealed an unexplained, mild but consistent drop in my diffusion capacity. Dr. Barut approached it like a complex engineering puzzle. She ruled out common causes, then designed a unique diagnostic protocol mimicking dive pressures in collaboration with the hospital's hyperbaric unit. She discovered a subtle, exercise-induced pulmonary venous constriction, a condition she'd only read about in niche sports medicine journals. Her solution wasn't medication; it was a meticulously calculated retraining of my breath-hold techniques and diaphragm control. She didn't fix a patient; she optimized an athlete.

I was admitted through the ER with what seemed like severe pneumonia that wasn't responding to antibiotics. Dr. Barut, on call, noticed a specific pattern in my blood gases and a faint, migratory rash I'd ignored. While others focused on the lung infiltrates, she suspected a vasculitis like granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) attacking my lungs and kidneys. She swiftly orchestrated a 'diagnostic storm': coordinating same-day biopsies between Pulmonology, Rheumatology, and Nephrology. Her decisive action in initiating targeted immunosuppressive therapy within 48 hours likely saved my kidneys from permanent damage. Her follow-up is a masterclass in balancing aggressive treatment with managing side effects. She sees the interconnected system when others see isolated organs.

A 28-year-old competitive freediver from the Black Sea coast presented with unexplained bradycardia and pre-syncope during deep dives. Dr. Ocal discovered a rare form of dive-induced atrial septal defect exacerbation through advanced echocardiography during simulated pressure conditions. Treatment involved a novel catheter-based closure device adapted for pressure variability, allowing the patient to return to competitive diving within 6 months with modified depth limits.

A 72-year-old retired calligraphy master with severe Parkinson's tremor was unable to tolerate standard beta-blockers for his atrial fibrillation due to worsening tremors. Dr. Ocal designed a personalized ablation strategy using 3D cardiac mapping that specifically targeted tremor-resistant pathways, coordinating with neurology to time procedures during medication-off periods. The patient maintained sinus rhythm with only mild tremor exacerbation.

A 41-year-old single mother working three cleaning jobs presented with 'holiday heart syndrome' symptoms year-round. Dr. Ocal identified severe sleep apnea compounded by chronic energy drink consumption. Instead of standard CPAP, he coordinated a multidisciplinary approach involving dental sleep appliance, nutritional counseling for shift workers, and carefully timed medication that fit her unpredictable schedule, dramatically reducing arrhythmia episodes.

A 19-year-old university student from a nomadic background presented with recurrent syncope. Traditional diagnostics were inconclusive until Dr. Ocal recognized pattern changes correlating with the student's seasonal migrations between high altitude and sea level. Diagnosis revealed a rare form of altitude-modulated Brugada syndrome, managed with a personalized activity and location-specific medication regimen.

A 58-year-old master violin maker with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy feared losing fine motor control with standard medications. Dr. Ocal developed a micro-dosing protocol using transdermal patches that maintained cardiac stability while preserving the delicate hand movements essential to his craft, collaborating with a pharmacologist to compound custom-dose patches.

A 34-year-old transgender woman on hormone therapy presented with atypical chest pain. Dr. Ocal identified early microvascular angina exacerbated by estrogen therapy, working with endocrinology to balance gender-affirming care with cardiac protection through a novel vasodilator regimen that didn't interfere with her transition goals.

An 83-year-old retired physics professor with severe aortic stenosis refused intervention due to philosophical objections to 'mechanical solutions.' Dr. Ocal engaged in detailed discussions about fluid dynamics and engineered a conservative management plan using precisely timed diuretics and afterload reduction that accounted for the professor's meticulous self-monitoring, extending quality life for 3 years before eventual acceptance of TAVI.

A 28-year-old competitive freediver from Antalya presented with recurrent episodes of transient neurological deficits during deep dives. Dr. Onen diagnosed a rare form of venous sinus stenosis exacerbated by pressure changes. Instead of traditional stenting, he pioneered a custom pressure-regulated shunt procedure. The patient returned to competitive diving within 9 months, now holding a national depth record.
