Hello, First of all, I would like to thank Dr. Birol Baytan. I can't praise enough his incredible interest during and after the operation, his one-to-one contact with me, and his sensitive follow-up of the process. He treated my son, even though he did not undergo an operation, but my son's treatment process is going great thanks to the doctor's perseverance. At the end of 6 months, my son will continue his life in a different way and with more self-confidence thanks to my doctor. Thanks again to him.
My daughter has been suffering from anemia for about 4 months. Since the day I met Dr. Birol Baytan, her treatment has been progressing very well and I have been very relieved. The medications he gave her and the regular blood transfusions provided a great deal of relief and regression. I would sincerely recommend Dr. Birol Baytan.
