My mother had a cardiac arrest last year, and we took him to Memorial Sisli Hospital. She was referred to Dr. Gokhan Ertas in the cardiology unit. We went to the doctor and updated him about my mother’s situation. He immediately admitted her to the emergency room for initial treatment. Later on, he informed me that my mother had a congenital issue that aggravated her age. He suggested a coronary artery stenting procedure to prevent blockage in future. My mother had surgery after two days. She was kept under observation for five days. The doctor recommended monthly follow-ups, which we performed. It has been a year, and my mother is doing absolutely fine. I would highly recommend everyone consult Dr. Gokhan Ertas.
