semra hoca ilk görüşmede çok ilgili her ayrıntısına kadar inceleyip bilgilendiriyor tamam ama sonraki randevularda 30dk, 1 saat bekletme hiç normal bir muayene süreci değil.
2 yılda 7 tedavi denemem sonucu şunu söyleyebilirim; ekibindeki her doktor semra hoca gibi titiz değil sürecinize ilişkin gözden kaçırdıkları şeyler oluyor(benim oldu yani)
eğer burada tedavi olmak istiyorsanız kesinlikle her sonucunuzu, seçeneğinizi kendiniz takip edin ölçün tartın karar verin…
çok kalabalık ve artık hastalara 'bi deneyelim' modunda davrandıklarını düşünüyorum art arda defalarca tüp bebek denemesi yaptılar, 8.denememde semra hoca ile görüşmek istediğimde 'bu ciddi bir vaka artık bir de şunu deneyelim' dedi.
8 deneme koskoca 8 deneme… anca mı dikkatinizi çektim saygıdeğer semra hocam? hani kurullara giriyordu dosyalar tartışılıp karar veriliyordu…
farklı bir yöntem için, kaldı ki ben semra hocayı istemesem belki de standart tedavi denemesi önereceklerdi yine…
en iyisi bu kadar süre aynı merkezde denememek gerek bence ama benim sürecim epey karışık farklı hocalardan görüş alıp alıp yine buraya döndüm. ama bu son.

türkiyedeki en iyi tüp bebek merkezinin başkanı. ilk randevumuzda bizi dikkatle dinlemiş yücel hoca ile doğru tedavi yöntemlerini uygulamış ve dört tedavinin sonunda hiç umudumuz yokken bizi erkek çocuk sahibi yapmış zamanın ötesinde bir doktor. gözü kapalı gidebilirsiniz.

I heard about IVF through a friend but was not sure if the treatment was safe or not. One day I came across Clinics on Call, which is a famous medical agency. I decided to have their recommendation for the treatment. I contacted them and discussed the problem with them. They suggested Dr. Semra Kahraman at Memorial Sisli. I visited the clinic and had a discussion with the doctor. She was very kind and guided me through the procedure. Later on, she performed the treatment and helped me throughout my pregnancy. Everything went well. I am grateful for the Clinics on Call team, who provided sincere help. Lastly, Dr. Semra also did an excellent job.
