Life is arranged in such a way that it is impossible to know what awaits you. It so happened that my life was no exception, sending me a serious health challenge.
I thank God that, in the fight against my illness, He sent me such a gift as the Acıbadem clinic in Istanbul (Hospital Acibadem Atakent).
I express my huge gratitude to the shareholders who created this clinic, and to the people who work there, for this unique opportunity to receive qualified treatment. Based solely on my own results, I want to express my huge gratitude directly to my attending physician: Profesör Doktor. Oncolog. İBRAHİM YILDIZ.
Thanks to his talent, professional knowledge, and rich experience, today I have been cured of such a serious illness.
A serious stage of treatment was the performance of a far from simple surgical operation, which was brilliantly carried out by Profesör Doktor ERMAN AYTAÇ. For which he also has my deep bow!!
Separately, I would like to note the work of the translator Tatiana Ratcova. She is a sensitive and responsive person. There were times when we contacted her late in the evening, after working hours — nevertheless, she would always answer and help. Throughout the six months that the treatment lasted, there was not a single case where we were left without feedback; it was very easy to work with her. She is truly a professional in her field, for which we give her huge thanks!!!
We initially learned about the Acıbadem clinic and Profesör Doktor. Oncolog. İBRAHİM YILDIZ from Nagima's Instagram page; these were her recommendations, for which we give her many thanks!!!
Overall, we want to once again express a deep and boundless feeling of gratitude to all the aforementioned people and to the entire large team of the Acıbadem Atakent clinic (Hospital Acibadem Atakent) in Istanbul!!! We wish them all the best, prosperity, well-being, professional growth, and good luck in their difficult but very important work for people!!!!
With respect,
Madi and Karlygash Baigisiyev.

Ibrahim Yildiz is a Turkish doctor, medical oncologist, and professor. He sees and treats patients at Acıbadem Atakent Hospital in the Küçükçekmece district (Istanbul) and is engaged in academic work at Acıbadem Mehmet Ali Aydınlar University.
His main clinical focus is the treatment of lung cancer and other thoracic tumors. His inclusion on the board of directors of the lung cancer association confirms that this is precisely his area of strength.
He treats patients using chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and hormonal therapy — all the main methods of modern medical oncology. For many tumors, he has experience in treatment according to international protocols: he is a member of ESMO and ASCO — the world’s leading oncology societies, which means his practice is synchronized with European and American standards.
He has been working in the Acıbadem group since 2015, before that at Izmir Katip Çelebi University. He publishes actively: more than 100 articles in international peer-reviewed journals according to his own statements; on Google Scholar — over 1,100 citations.
For a patient with lung cancer or other thoracic tumors, he is one of the well-founded choices in Istanbul: a medical oncologist with specialized expertise, an academic position, and a direct connection to international oncology standards.

Acıbadem Atakent is one of the academic clinics of Acıbadem Healthcare Group, also serving as the teaching base of Acıbadem Mehmet Ali Aydınlar University. For a patient with lung cancer and other thoracic tumors, this is a practical choice: the clinic is equipped for a full cycle of oncology treatment — from diagnostics (CT, MRI, PET-CT, bronchoscopy) to chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and supportive methods. A particular feature of Acıbadem is its multidisciplinary approach: the treatment plan is discussed by an oncology council that includes a medical oncologist, thoracic surgeon, radiation oncologist, radiologist, and pathologist. For lung cancer, this is critical, since the choice of method depends on the stage, histological type, and molecular profile of the tumor. The clinic actively applies modern methods of molecular tumor testing and selects targeted therapy based on mutations (EGFR, ALK, ROS1, PD-L1, and others), which is especially important in non-small cell lung cancer. For international patients, Acıbadem provides a standard support protocol: remote consultation, translation of medical documents, treatment coordinator, and a translator at appointments.
