Oğlum 6 aylıkken muayene olmaya başladık. Çok memnunduk. Kayseri'den ayrıldığı için çok üzüldüm, ağladım. Kayseri için çok büyük bir kayıp oldu. Yasemin Hanım hastalarına bir doktor gibi değildi. Gece, gündüz her dakika bir problemimiz olduğunda arayabiliyorduk. Çok ilgili ve alakalıydı. Oğlum hemofili hastası olduğu için muayene olmuştuk. Şu anda daha iyi. Hiçbir zaman bizi ihmal etmedi. Oğlumun doktoru olmasına rağmen kızımla da çok güzel bir şekilde ilgilendi. Kendisi çok bilinçli bir doktor. Gerekli her türlü bilgilendirmeyi yapıyordu. Kendisini çok seviyoruz.
Yasemin hocamızdan Allah razı olsun, iki kardeşim hemofili hastası yıllardır hocamız ilgilenir. ilaç olsun ,Psikolijik tedavi olsun her zaman en iyi şekilde bu ihtiyaçlarımızı gidermiştir. Allah yolunu açık etsin . Başarılar dilerim.

Yasemin Hanım mükemmel bir doktor. Yaklaşık 3 senedir kızımın tedavisinde yardımcı oldu. Kayseri'den gittiği için çok üzüldük. İstanbul mükemmel bir doktor kazandı. Yasemin Hanım bizlere her konuda yardımcı olan. Çekinmeden her türlü soruyu sorabileceğimiz bir doktor. Kızım lösemi hastasıydı. Gerekli tedavileri için yardımcı oldu. Hamdolsun kızım şu an daha iyi. Sıkıntısı kalmadı, çok şükür. Yasemin Hanım bire bir iletişim kurup motive etmesini bilen, çocuklara karşı durumu aktarmadan moral ve motive eden bir doktor. Gerekli bilgilendirmeleri yaptı. Farklı illerde olmamıza rağmen destek oluyor. İrtibata geçtiğimizde yardımcı oldu. Kendisine başarılar dilerim. Allah her konuda yardımcısı olsun.
