Prof. Dr. Mustafa Özdoğan - Tıbbi Onkoloji Uzmanı

An exemplary teacher, an exemplary scientist, who knows not only his own branch, but also the entire field of medicine, who researches and follows the most up-to-date developments. When appropriate, a father, a brother, a brother for his patients, respectful professor, health for your efforts.

Undoubtedly, the most reliable, most successful, most relevant physician in Oncology, the physician who should apply to Oncology patients who want to get the right information, plan and apply the right treatment ... ??‍♀️

Years ago, when we came to our teacher Mustafa with my father, we understood what we should do with his experience and the most sincere explanations to us, we have good doctors like you and we got to know you.

I congratulate and appreciate you and all those who worked like you. I brought you a patient named Zeynep Oz in 2009. I always wish you success. I wish you continued success.

I woke up from Ankara and went away. It was worth it. While other doctors risked my life with procedures, they mobilized their possibilities, even though they did not know me, to have an urgent surgery. Mustafa Hodja is exactly the same person. Do not wait for cursive words. He told me how risky and advanced my illness was, and while other doctors made me wait for the surgery, Mustafa said to my face. Indeed, my pain increased and I could not wait. Go on time and get his opinion. Other doctors will not remember you if you go five times. Mustafa Hodja knew my file by heart after I first went to him. He is a really good, relevant and knowledgeable physician. May God give healing to all patients.

It is a great luck that some people are in this city. We cannot thank Mr. Mustafa and his team enough.

For those who don't know about cancer, it feels like water in an oasis. When you start to understand things a little bit, you are actually just wrapped in a snake drowning in the sea. He doesn't do anything other than the normal procedure, my dear, the business is running with my sweet one. He speaks quietly to his assistant so that you don't understand and then don't cause problems, you think it's just another politeness, and then you understand. The terminal sends home to those who come to the terminal and shamelessly invites that person who is not in a state to get 350 TL every two weeks. After all, you only pay for the environment, not the treatment, because as long as you pay for the treatment, they offer you a 5-star hotel environment. They made our patient, who needed to be put on a catheter, wait for 5 hours, they did not call me despite crying and they put a 65-year-old person in the psychology of being abandoned in the hospital. When we said that our patient is not feeling well, he said, let's go to bed and have a good day, we confirmed his dehydration. They don't finish the serum despite the fact that it's dehydration and despite our warning. Although he knew that his blood value was low, after giving chemotherapy, a blood transfusion was performed, so that the patient was expected to recover first, many more annoying things. In short, you only give money to an EGO that allows other departments to win.

While it is still taboo to tell a patient that he has cancer in my country, he has started to struggle since the beginning of the 2000s that this process should be discussed with the patient in the most appropriate way and without lies. Father oncologists; "Son, is a patient ever told he has cancer!" While he criticizes himself, he conducted surveys with patients, their relatives and oncologists: In 2003, a survey of Turkish Oncologists at the National Cancer Congress showed that 9% of oncologists never tell their cancer diagnosis to their patients, and 39% rarely explain it. Think about it, this disease is quite common, one out of every 3-4 people who live long enough will get cancer, and again, a significant part of these people will spend the last period of their lives in a lie-theatre... He established his personal website in 2012 to deal with these and many other taboo-superstitions and to talk about all aspects of cancer with scientific evidence. Currently, it has nearly 3,000 articles in more than 80 categories, all of which are original, and new ones are added every day. We are talking about a disease in which 20 million people worldwide get this disease and 9.6 million people die every year. Isn't correct and up-to-date information in this field a real vital need?! Thanks to Professor Mustafa Özdoğan for telling us about cancer as a true disease, easing our fears, and treating each patient as if they were his own relatives.
