I was having frequent headaches and taking pain killers did not help either. So I went to Anadolu Medical Center after getting an appointment from Dr. Gocmen. I told him what I was experiencing and he asked me questions related to my headache. After that he suggested a few diagnostic tests. After getting the results, he told me that I had glioma. For which he suggested gamma knife surgery. Now after the treatment I feel better and have follow up check ups to monitor my health

My mother has epilepsy, and we took her to Prof. Dr. Selçuk Göçmen, who suggested epilepsy surgery. We were not ready for surgery, but he made us comfortable and informed us about the whole procedure. The surgery went well, and my mother is doing fine.
