Yıllar evvel oğlumun sünnetini yapmıştı, yıllar sonra kızım da kasık fıtığı çıktı. Hiç tereddütsüz ufuk hocamı aradım saat geç olmasına rağmen uzun uzun konuştuk içimizi rahatlattı ve 2 gün icin de yani bugün kızımı ameliyat etti. Ameliyattan 2 saat sonra yürümeye hatta koşmaya başladı. Mesleğini ki mliği haline getirmiş, hekimlikten öte bir ağabey, bir aile büyüğü ufuk hoca. Saat mefhumu gözetmeksizin bizimle iletişimi koparmadı ne sorduysak bıkmadan usanmadan açıkca cevapladı tüm süreçte bizzat bizimleydi. Hakkı ödenmez. Evlatlarımızı gözümüz kapalı emanet edecebileceğimiz bir hekim. Yolunuz da bahtınız gibi açık olsun sayın hocam. Hürmetlerimle. Semih TURHAN
