Medical Park Maltepe Reviews

A 47-year-old refugee with complex PTSD from conflict zones presented with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy episodes triggered by specific auditory stimuli. Dr. Ocal collaborated with a trauma psychologist to develop a desensitization protocol paired with cardiac monitoring, using biofeedback to teach the patient to recognize and modulate cardiac responses to triggers.

A 63-year-old blind marathon runner developed exercise-induced arrhythmias. Dr. Ocal created a unique management plan using auditory heart rate feedback integrated with her running guidance system, allowing her to maintain running while preventing dangerous rhythms through real-time audio cues about her cardiac status.

A 52-year-old commercial deep-sea fisherman with familial hypercholesterolemia had failed all standard medications due to severe side effects at sea. Dr. Ocal developed a novel rotation therapy using short-acting agents during shore time and different mechanisms during voyages, coordinated with satellite telemedicine for remote monitoring during months-long fishing trips.

A 37-year-old ceramic artist with ventricular tachycardia had ablation attempts fail due to unusual substrate location near the phrenic nerve. Dr. Ocal employed cryoablation with real-time diaphragmatic pacing to protect nerve function while successfully eliminating the arrhythmia focus, preserving her ability to maintain the breath control needed for her art.

A 70-year-old retired clock tower mechanic with pacemaker dependency developed unique electromagnetic interference from his hobby of restoring antique electrical equipment. Dr. Ocal worked with the device manufacturer to create custom shielding and programming that allowed safe continuation of his restoration work while maintaining reliable pacing.

A 44-year-old scent designer (perfumer) developed multiple drug allergies to standard heart failure medications. Dr. Ocal designed a treatment regimen using novel combinations of older, less allergenic drugs monitored through sophisticated biomarker tracking rather than standard protocols, coordinated with an allergist for desensitization to one critical medication.

A 31-year-old professional contortionist presented with recurrent presyncope during performances. Diagnosis revealed a rare form of positional coronary artery compression that only occurred in specific extreme poses. Dr. Ocal worked with her performance coach to modify problematic positions and prescribed a strategic nitrate regimen only before performances involving those specific poses.

My 55-year-old husband, a carpenter, had a chronically draining ear from a cholesteatoma destroying his hearing bone chain. Prof. Paksoy performed a single-stage tympanomastoidectomy with ossicular reconstruction using the husband's own bone (autograft). The result? A dry ear and hearing restored to 90%. He can hear his grandchildren whisper and work safely again. Profound skill.

I'm a 60-year-old with a recurrent pleomorphic adenoma of the parotid gland after a previous surgery elsewhere left facial nerve weakness. Prof. Paksoy's revision surgery was a masterpiece of nerve-sparing dissection. He removed the entire tumor and improved my facial symmetry. His respect for the delicate nerve anatomy preserved my smile. A true artist in the operating room.

A 23-year-old aspiring pilot, I failed my medical due to unilateral hearing loss from otosclerosis. Prof. Paksoy performed a stapedotomy with a laser. The procedure was precise and under local anesthesia. The 'pop' and immediate improvement in hearing during surgery was surreal. I passed my next medical exam. He literally cleared me for takeoff.

As a 72-year-old retired opera singer, I thought my performing days were over due to a severe vocal cord paralysis that left me breathy and weak. Other doctors offered limited solutions. Prof. Paksoy performed a revolutionary laryngeal framework surgery. Not only can I speak clearly again, but with his specialized vocal therapy plan, I've regained enough control to sing for my grandchildren. He gave me back my voice and my joy.

My 8-year-old son, a champion swimmer, developed exostoses 'surfer's ear' that caused recurrent infections and hearing loss. Prof. Paksoy explained the complex canalplasty procedure with 3D models we could understand. His gentle approach erased our son's fear. The surgery was flawless, his hearing is perfect, and he's back winning medals, all thanks to a doctor who treats children like respected little people.

I'm a 34-year-old perfume chemist who lost my sense of smell (anosmia) after a head injury. My career was collapsing. Prof. Paksoy diagnosed a subtle cribriform plate defect others missed. His meticulous endoscopic skull base repair was a miracle. The first scent I recognized was my own lab's rose compound. He didn't just fix a medical issue; he saved my professional identity.

Our 3-month-old daughter was born with a life-threatening congenital neck mass (teratoma) compressing her airway. The emergency was terrifying. Prof. Paksoy coordinated a multi-team surgery at midnight. His calm precision in removing the complex mass from such a tiny patient was awe-inspiring. Seeing her breathe freely post-op was the greatest relief. He is our family's guardian angel.

A 19-year-old university student, I suffered from debilitating Meniere's disease with violent vertigo attacks. Prof. Paksoy offered a new, targeted intratympanic gentamicin protocol after exhaustive conservative care. The procedure was quick in-office. I've been attack-free for 18 months. He gave me back my independence and allowed me to continue my studies without fear of collapsing in public.

At 41, I had a rare, invasive juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma that bled massively. Prof. Paksoy performed an advanced endoscopic embolization and resection. His follow-up was remarkable; he personally called me on weekends to check. The tumor is gone, and his holistic care addressed the trauma of the emergency. I trust him with my life, completely.

As a 28-year-old teacher with severe obstructive sleep apnea, CPAP failed me. Prof. Paksoy identified a complex multilevel obstruction: deviated septum, enlarged tonsils, and tongue base collapse. His phased surgical plan, septoplasty, tonsillectomy, then later a tongue base procedure, was tailored perfectly. My sleep study is now normal. The energy I have transformed my classroom presence.

Our 5-year-old had mysterious, recurrent deep neck abscesses. After three hospitalizations elsewhere, Prof. Paksoy investigated like a detective. He found and excised a congenital branchial cleft cyst fistula, the hidden source. His minimally invasive approach left a barely visible scar. No more infections, no more antibiotics. He solved a puzzle that baffled others.

My 80-year-old mother had a massive, bleeding sinonasal tumor deemed inoperable due to her age. Prof. Paksoy saw the person, not the age. He devised a limited but radical endoscopic resection under careful monitoring. Her bleeding stopped, her pain vanished, and her quality of life soared for her final years. His courage and compassion were beyond measure.

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.
