Tumor

I started treatment with Dr. Ozkan 6 months ago. I had a 5 cm tumor. After 4 courses of chemotherapy, the PET scan showed that the tumor was gone. I recently completed my treatment consisting of 9 courses of chemotherapy and again the PET scan showed clear results. I am very glad that I met Dr. Ozkan and underwent this treatment under his guidance. He is a wonderful doctor and his approach to patients is perfect. Thank you, Dr. Ozkan!

Metastasis

In 2021 my father had cancer and beat it, but in 2023 the disease came back and he started having trouble walking. Since January 2023 we have been going to doctors trying to figure out what was going on until we met Dr. Ozkan who diagnosed metastases. We are now continuing chemotherapy and my father has greatly improved his ability to walk without pain medication. Dr. Ozkan is a wonderful doctor who carefully monitors his patients and takes action quickly depending on the condition. I hope my review helps others.

bile duct cancer

In April 2022, my father was diagnosed with jaundice. We went to different hospitals, but we did not get proper attention and quality of biopsy. On the recommendation of a friend, we turned to Dr. Ozkan. Thanks to his decisive and precise action, my father, who was suffering from bile duct cancer, was able to recover. I thank him on behalf of our entire family.

metastatic kidney cancer

I met Dr. Ozkan in 2021 when I was diagnosed with metastatic kidney cancer that was considered incurable. Dr. Ozkan did an excellent job with the treatment and because of his approach I am still alive. I recommend him to anyone with kidney tumors. His professionalism and support really saves lives.

breast cancer

I came to Dr. Ozkan with a diagnosis of breast cancer. Although the diagnosis is rare for men, thanks to Dr. Ozkan, my cancer was detected at an early stage and successfully treated. It has been 2 years since the treatment was completed and I am leading a normal life. I am very grateful to him.

Glioblastoma

My mother was diagnosed with brain cancer (GBM4). Dr. Ozkan helped us through this difficult period by arranging treatment with a brain implant brought from abroad. Thanks to his support and proper treatment, the tumor disappeared. We are grateful to Dr. Ozkan and are continuing treatment for the remnants of the disease. His professionalism and support are truly miraculous.

Lung cancer (after cervical cancer)

When I met Dr. Ozkan, many doctors said there was nothing that could be done. In 2012, I was diagnosed with cervical cancer and then advanced stage lung cancer. Dr. Ozkan gave me hope and started treatment. Thanks to his care and professionalism, I am still alive. My family considers it a miracle. I have been alive for 4 years thanks to Dr. Ozkan.
