Doç.Dr. Hakan SOFU hocam Memorial' den önceki hastanede aynı dizden hem menüsküs hem de ön çapraz bağ yırtığı ameliyatımı yaptı. Bütün süreci harika bir şekilde yürüttü. Hekimlikteki bilgi beceri ve hünerinin yanında ; mütevazi, insancıl ve samimiyeti gibi güzel hasletleri nerede olursa olsun doktor tercihim olmasının en önemli nedeni. İyi bir hekim harika bir insan vesselam. Allah yolunu açık işini rast getirsin.
İnsan vücudunda kırılabilecek en zor kemik olan Humerusu kırdım. 6 ay içinde Ameliyat öncesinden bugüne kadar kusursuz bir destek,ilgi,aşırı güven ve müthiş bir operasyon ile kendisine bir kez daha teşekkür ediyorum. Kendisi Memorial’a geçmesine rağmen Beylikdüzünden oraya gidiyorum. Sizde İstanbul’da her anlamda önce iyi bir insan ardından iyi bir ortopedi doktoru arıyorsanız kesinlikle ama kesinlikle Hakan hocayı hem öneriyorum hem de şiddetle tavsiye ediyorum ! Onunlada dün son muayene sonrası hatıra fotoğrafını da çektik :) Tekrardan kendisine çok teşekkür ediyorum .
Dr Hakan Sofu is an excellent doctor with excellent bedside manners and communication skills. He explained mri results and treatment process in detail. Memorial hospital provides exceptional services
