Tiroid kanseri geçirdikten 1.5 sene sonra kan değerlerimin yükselmesi sebebiyle doktor beye atom tedavisi almak üzere yönlendirlildim. Doktor bey bir takım testler istedi ve ardından iyi olduğumu biraz daha beklemizi söyleyedi. Atom tedavisini verip vermemek için 3 ay boyunca kararsızlık içerisinde kaldı. Fakat bu kararsızlık sürecinde baska herhangi bir test vs yapmadı. Maalesef yaklasık 3 ay kadar oyalanmak zorunda kaldım ve 3 ayın sonunda başka bir doktora gittiğimde hastalığımın oldukça ilerlediğini vücudumda 2 tane tümör oluştuğunu öğrendim. Tamer bey e gittiğimde minicik oynayan kan değerlerim 3 aylık bekleme sürecinin sonunda 2 tane tümör olarak vücuduma döndü. Maalesef doktor beyden memnun kalmadım.
Kendisini internetten buldum. Profesör olduğu için tercih ettim. Ama aldığım hizmetten memnun kalmadım. Kendisinin yaptığı sintigrafi çekimlerimi diğer doktorlar kabul etmedi. Çekimlerimi tekrar etmem gerekti. Gereksiz yere ikinci kere radyasyon almak zorunda kaldım. Bunun dışında hastaya yaklaşımı da, bilgilendirmesi de beni tatmin etmedi. Bu nedenle gidecek olanlara tavsiye etmiyorum.
