First of all, I want to start by saying how lucky I am. The moment I entered his office, my voice was tearful, and it continued to be sobbing. I had a herniated disc on my right side, with incredible pain, stinging, and a completely crooked leg. That's when I met Dr. Ahmet. He listened so beautifully to my desperate, exhausted, and tearful explanation of my problem, and most importantly, he gave me so much confidence that I didn't hesitate at all. He explained the treatment and surgery process, and I entrusted myself to his decisions and underwent the surgery. Of course, I looked at the reviews here, but I thought, "Isn't there really a single negative review about a doctor?" Then, after getting to know him a little better, I understood the patients' point of view. I don't know how many times I told him, "Thank you, doctor, for giving me a comfortable life again." May God not take away doctors like you from us. There are so many things I want to say, but they wouldn't fit here. You can trust my doctor without any hesitation. I know there are many people in my situation who are desperate. You can trust whatever my doctor says without hesitation. That's what I did, and I regained my health… Translated fromTurkish

I went to see Professor Ahmet with unbearable pain, my right leg completely dysfunctional, and a completely exhausted state of mind. His reassuring, persuasive, and confident approach made me decide on surgery in about 5 minutes :) I'm so glad I made that decision. Hello to a pain-free life! Translated fromTurkish

I'm someone who's very afraid of having surgery and has an extremely low pain threshold. However, thanks to Dr. Ahmet's approach and reassuring demeanor, I underwent surgery for a herniated disc in my neck. I had been suffering unbearable pain for a month for no reason. As I always say, choosing the right doctor is crucial; their approach, attitude, and way of explaining things must inspire confidence. I highly recommend that anyone who, like me, is afraid of surgery, needles, etc., should definitely meet and be treated by Dr. Ahmet. I'm so glad you exist, Dr. Ahmet! :) Translated fromTurkish

I was extremely pleased with the care I received from Prof. Dr. Ahmet Öğrenci during my cervical disc herniation surgery. Thanks to the detailed information he provided before the surgery, we had no remaining questions. Throughout the process, he patiently answered all our questions with his close, sincere, and reassuring approach. His continued care and attention during post-operative check-ups further reinforced our confidence. I would like to thank him for the successful surgery, his patient-focused approach, and the reassurance he provided throughout the process. Translated fromTurkish

In January, while trying on clothes, my mother suddenly felt a sharp, stabbing pain in her right leg. The pain, which usually subsided in 3-4 days, didn't go away this time, so we started seeing doctors. They told us she had severe spinal stenosis and needed emergency surgery. Of course, my mother didn't want surgery. We did so much research, and all options suggested surgery, but there was one difference: we were looking for a doctor who could perform the operation without using screws. They said that with screws, the recovery period would be 3-5 months. Finally, a friend's brother recommended Dr. Ahmet. My mother, who had initially refused surgery, suddenly decided to have it. Our doctor said that screws wouldn't be used, but of course, that decision could change during the surgical procedure. We really liked the way our doctor explained things, using examples and guiding us through the procedure with a skeleton in the room. My mother said she was so glad she had the surgery. If we had known, we would never have waited from January to April for Dr. Ahmet. She had the surgery, and the next day she told us in the hallway that her leg was fine and she could walk comfortably. Thank God she's doing well now, and we are truly grateful to Dr. Ahmet Öğrenci. Thanks to him, my mother's mood improved and she got rid of her pain. Professor Ahmet is the best! 🥰 Translated fromTurkish

I had back pain for almost a year.
It kept me awake at night and severely affected my quality of life during the day.
Finally, a mass was detected in my spinal cord area, and the ordeal began; I went from doctor to doctor, wanting to find out what I was up against.
I was told I needed surgery, but that there could still be some bad outcomes, and that not having surgery would lead to a bad outcome anyway.
Finally, I met Dr. Ahmet, and his concise and understandable explanations and examinations showed how good he was in his field.
His hopeful and friendly approach, and witnessing how other patients left his office with smiles on their faces, gave me the courage to have the surgery.
I had the surgery and regained my health.
Although it's only been 8 days, I'm doing very well. Seeing the healthy and satisfied facial expressions of patients who, like me, came for follow-up after surgery was a heartwarming moment.
While wishing all patients a speedy recovery, I strongly recommend that all patients in my situation, who require brain and nerve surgery, also consult with Professor Ahmet. I wish them health and well-being.
I thank Professor Ahmet and his team. Translated fromTurkish

First of all, I would like to thank my dear doctor, Ahmet Öğrenci, very much. Even when the pain from my herniated disc, which I had suffered from for many years, became unbearable, I was afraid of surgery. The fact that I froze up and experienced numbness in my feet and legs as soon as I started ozone therapy and physical therapy, and the pain that followed, was perhaps all meant to bring you, my esteemed doctor, into my life. No one and no event in our lives is a coincidence. Coming to you on a recommendation, and I extend my endless gratitude to my friend who recommended you, and the reassurance that surgery is nothing to be afraid of, was invaluable to me 🙏. Your information about the post-operative process and your sincerity were also very valuable. I am better now and will get even better. To support other patients who are researching, if you have a fear of surgery like me, I would definitely recommend going to Dr. Ahmet. May God never let you be lacking in your care 🙏. With love and respect. Translated fromTurkish

For a long time, I suffered from lower back pain, followed by severe pain radiating to my leg. On a friend's recommendation, I went to see our esteemed doctor, Ahmet. After performing the necessary procedures, he indicated that I needed surgery. Until then, I had been quite skeptical about the surgery, but Ahmet Bey explained to me so clearly how necessary it was and how minimal the risk was, that I had already decided to have the operation before even leaving his office.
I immediately scheduled an operation, and our doctor performed it in no time. After the surgery, our doctor came and provided all the necessary information. I was discharged after only one night in the hospital. I went for a check-up a week later, and everything was perfect. I am eternally grateful to our doctor for relieving me of this pain. I also thank all his team members.
Thank you for everything, doctor. 🙏 Translated fromTurkish

Before the surgery, I had been experiencing severe pain in my neck, shoulder blade, shoulder, arm, and hand for a long time. The pain, especially on my right side, made daily life very difficult. I also experienced numbness and limited movement from time to time.

However, my doctor's detailed explanations and reassuring approach before the surgery put me at ease. In the first few days after the surgery, I experienced pain in my neck and shoulder area, but I felt more comfortable because it was explained that this was a normal healing process. The fact that my previous severe pain was gone and my movements increased day by day gave me morale.

During this process, attention, support, and a smiling face were truly very important. Looking back now, I think it wasn't as difficult a process as I feared. I can tell patients considering surgery that with the right doctor and patience, this process can be managed. I would like to thank my doctor and the entire team for their efforts and attention. I'm so glad my path crossed with yours 🙏🏻 Translated fromTurkish

I am grateful to fate for bringing me together with Dr. Ahmet. I had unbearable pain that drained my energy. Spinal stenosis had been causing me great difficulty for the last two years, and I was also taking care of my grandchild with this pain. Please, stay away from treatments that are described with fancy words. I wasted time with treatments like prolotherapy, radiofrequency, laser, and manual therapy. I had reached a point where I couldn't even move from room to room. At the point where I thought I was completely exhausted, my daughter took me to Dr. Ahmet. He said that my spinal stenosis was so severe that I couldn't walk due to calcification, and that he would clean the area and relieve my discomfort. He also said he would give me injections for the herniated disc in my back. Meanwhile, I thought I had separate problems with my knees. I had surgery around 10 am on Friday and was home by 10 am on Saturday. My family was shocked, I went to the toilet myself. For the first 3 days, I had a throbbing pain in the surgical area. After the surgery, I swear, my legs felt so much better. The pain and weakness in my knees disappeared. Thank God, today is my 10th day and I've started going outside. My muscles are weak because I haven't been outside for 2 years, but I'll improve them with exercises. I'm so happy to be able to go outside. I tell myself, "Come on, let's go," and I go for a walk and come back. I offer my endless thanks to him. Translated fromTurkish

When I contacted Dr. Ahmet, he was very knowledgeable and skilled, reassured me, and performed surgery the next day. My pain subsided, and I was able to use my arm again within 3 days. He is very warm and understanding, and I would like to express my gratitude here. I am very thankful. 🙏😍 Translated fromTurkish

During this process, the approach, care, and reassuring explanations of my doctor, Dr. Ahmet, were invaluable to me. My surgery was extremely successful, and my leg pain completely disappeared after the operation.

Even though only a week has passed since my surgery, I've had a much smoother recovery than I expected. I feel quite good right now. He is a truly skilled surgeon who does his job meticulously. I wholeheartedly thank my valuable doctor and his team for the care they showed both during and after the surgery.

I wholeheartedly recommend him to everyone. 🌸 Translated fromTurkish

I had been suffering from back pain for many years. After being diagnosed with spondylolisthesis and an early-stage herniated disc, my symptoms worsened significantly over the last three months. I met Prof. Dr. Ahmet Öğrenci, who had also performed surgery on a close acquaintance of ours. When I entered his office, the light of Atatürk illuminated him so beautifully, and his confident and determined speech impressed me so much that I immediately decided to have the surgery. As he said, in a short period of about 10 days, I returned to my normal life in a healthier way. May God bless his hands, arms, and heart... How fortunate to be a follower of Atatürk!

Two and a half months ago, we contacted Dr. Ahmet for my 90-year-old mother-in-law's thoracic meningoma surgery. She had undergone surgery in the same area five years prior, and it was likely not completely removed then. I am a doctor, and he explained the operation and post-operative process to my non-medical wife in a way she could understand. His approach, warmth, knowledge, and care made us decide immediately, and our mother-in-law underwent surgery the very next day. The very difficult surgery was successful. Our post-operative period was also very comfortable. He was very attentive during that time as well. Thank you so much, Dr. Ahmet, for everything. 🙏🌺 Translated fromTurkish

I had been suffering from back pain for 20 years. All the doctors I went to recommended physical therapy; no one had ever suggested surgery. I went to Dr. Ahmet on a recommendation, and he told me I needed surgery, that screws would be inserted into my spine. I didn't hesitate at all because my pain was severe, I had a slipped disc and a fracture in my spine, and my spine was also deformed. We decided on surgery. The day after the surgery, they had me walking, and my pain eased significantly. Now, on the 10th day after my surgery, I can walk much more comfortably and stand much straighter. Dr. Ahmet's approach to the patient and the trust he instills are very important; it's clear he's an expert in this field. I would like to thank him and his team, his friendliness, and his humor. He gave me my life back. I'm so glad I had surgery with Dr. Ahmet. I wholeheartedly thank him… I recommend him to all my relatives, friends, and everyone. Translated fromTurkish

Hello, for about a year I've had a lesion in my spinal cord causing nerve compression, and it needed to be removed surgically. However, I was so hesitant and frankly scared that I kept postponing the surgery until I experienced numbness in my feet and weakness in my legs. I decided to have the surgery before experiencing more serious problems. This time, I was constantly researching who should perform my surgery because trust was very important to me. During my research, I saw Professor Ahmet's surgical videos, and I was so impressed by his reassuring and sincere demeanor that even though I was outside of Istanbul, I told my wife that I urgently needed to discuss this with Professor Ahmet. A few days later, I came to see him for an examination, and he looked at my MRI images. He was so reassuring and sincere that he took a chair from his desk and sat next to me. He told me that I needed the surgery, that I shouldn't hesitate at all, that there was nothing to worry about, and that he would perform the operation smoothly with minimal incisions, without damaging the spine, and using advanced imaging and control devices. I was so relieved; I knew I had come to the right place and the right doctor. I told Professor Ahmet that I didn't want to wait any longer and that we should immediately make a surgery plan, and that's all I could do. Two days later I came to Istanbul for surgery because Dr. Ahmet had allayed all my concerns and successfully performed my surgery that day. I didn't experience any pain or problems after the surgery; everything went perfectly for me, and the problems I started experiencing before the surgery quickly disappeared. I can't thank Dr. Ahmet enough; may his hands never suffer. I recommend that anyone with health problems in this area contact Dr. Ahmet. Thank you very much, Dr. Ahmet. Translated fromTurkish

In early September, I experienced numbness in my left arm and especially my left hand. I also had an excruciating pain in my left thumb; I couldn't even open a bottle cap. Initially, I suspected carpal tunnel syndrome and consulted the Orthopedics department. After several tests and an MRI, the results were not very positive, and they referred me to Professor Dr. Ahmet Öğrenci.

From the very beginning, Professor Öğrenci was extremely attentive. He explained that my condition involved slippage in the C4-C5 discs, nerve compression, and cervical spinal cord contusion and edema, emphasizing the importance of immediate surgery. Due to negative feedback I had received from others regarding neck hernia surgeries, I waited for a while. However, thanks to Professor Öğrenci's reassuring advice, I decided to have the surgery.

I underwent surgery in mid-October. My symptoms largely disappeared from the first few days; some numbness eventually went away completely. I am eternally grateful to Professor Ahmet Öğrenci. He is one of the best and youngest physicians in this field; may his path be clear and his future bright. Translated fromTurkish

On May 30, 2025, I underwent surgery for a herniated disc and spinal stenosis at Medicana Ataşehir Hospital. Eight months later, despite using neuropathic medication, my pain persists as before the surgery, and I've started to lose the ability to move my left arm. From the moment I left the hospital after the surgery, I received hyperbaric oxygen therapy for two months and have been undergoing physical therapy for eight months. Currently, my left arm still cannot move backward, and I have no lifting capacity. I can't even carry a glass of water. I was never informed of these potential consequences before the surgery. I'm writing this to remind those considering this surgery that they may face such outcomes. Translated fromTurkish

To find out the cause of the back pain that wouldn't let me take a step, I went to a physical therapy professor. He ordered an MRI, and after reviewing the results, he said I didn't need surgery and prescribed the most expensive steel brace and 30 sessions of physical therapy. After the 3rd session, I received daily painkiller injections, and I stopped after the 8th session because my pain was getting worse. I went to a neurosurgeon with the MRI results. He also looked at the MRI report and said it would go away with physical therapy. This time, I went to a physical therapy center with another MRI and underwent 6 sessions of the most intense manual therapy until my legs, abdomen, and groin turned completely black. When I became unable to move without a wheelchair, my daughter, who had researched the situation, took me to Prof. Dr. Ahmet Öğrenci, whom she learned was the best in his field. After seeing the MRI, our doctor showed me two vertebrae separated by almost 1.5 cm and told me that I needed immediate surgery and that my condition would be completely corrected with 4 pins, and that I would be able to stand on my feet painlessly when I woke up. On October 13, 2025, I underwent a very successful operation and 24 hours later I left the hospital walking, having arrived in a wheelchair. All my post-operative check-ups were done very carefully and meticulously.
I would like to express my endless gratitude to Professor Dr. Ahmet Öğrenci, a kind-hearted, Atatürk-loving individual who translated his knowledge into language the patient could understand, answered all my questions, and never sent me away without reassuring me.

I was very worried after being diagnosed with a herniated disc and spinal stenosis. Thanks to Dr. Ahmet, I got through this process very easily. Both his pre-operative information and post-operative follow-up were excellent. He played a big role in my recovery. He is an expert in his field, friendly, and as a bonus, "his good looks are also a professional motivational booster" 😊 I'm so glad our paths crossed, I wholeheartedly recommend him to everyone 🙏💐 Translated fromTurkish

He is an excellent person both as a human being and as a doctor. His care, attitude, and smiling face truly make you feel like he's very close to you. Regarding his medical skills, I've had four previous surgeries on my head, but none were like the ones Dr. Ahmet performed. It's as if he touches me with a magic wand; there's no pain, no discomfort, nothing at all. As he said, let's not say he's "excellent," lest we jinx it, but one can't help but say it. He's truly excellent. May God not give anyone illness, but if it happens, don't hesitate to go to Dr. Ahmet. I thank you again here, Dr. Ahmet. May God grant you a long life, and may you, with the authority God has given you, continue to heal your patients. Translated fromTurkish

After experiencing back pain for about two weeks that significantly reduced my quality of life, I was diagnosed with a herniated disc. Following research and recommendations, I scheduled an appointment with Prof. Dr. Ahmet Öğrenci. After he explained the surgical procedure, despite my concerns, I underwent the herniated disc surgery, and my pain immediately subsided. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to our professor. Translated fromTurkish

After a month of very severe lower back and leg pain and numbness, I found Dr. Ahmet through my research. When he told me I needed surgery based on the MRI results, I was a little hesitant, as there are many urban legends circulating about the poor results of lumbar disc herniation surgeries. However, the day after the operation, when I stood up, the pain and numbness in my leg had completely disappeared. It's been 1.5 months since the operation, and I can walk comfortably now. I still experience some pain when I'm immobile, but he had already told me that this would happen over a three-month period. I would like to thank Dr. Ahmet very much for his care and the successful operation. I've already started recommending him to my friends. May his success continue. Translated fromTurkish
