Excellent professionalism. Fully transparent with approach to surgery, and rehab thereafter. His entire surgical team were fantastic in managing expectations and concerns from start to finish. I couldn’t ask for a better surgeon.
Mr. Akturek is an exceptional surgeon who combines outstanding professional expertise with genuine kindness and compassion. From my very first consultation, he took the time to explain every aspect of my treatment in a clear, thorough, and reassuring manner, ensuring that I fully understood both the procedure and what to expect before and after the operation. Throughout my care, he was consistently diligent, attentive, and patient, never making me feel rushed and always willing to answer my questions. His calm and caring approach gave me great confidence and helped to ease any anxieties I had. I am sincerely grateful to Mr. Akturek and his entire team for the excellent care they provided. The professionalism, support, and compassion shown by everyone involved made a significant difference to my experience and recovery. I felt well looked after at every stage of my treatment, and I cannot thank them enough for their dedication and outstanding care.
Professionalism, integrity, honesty, clinical excellence and exemplary communication skills of Mr Dincer Aktuerk were the hallmarks of today’s consultation. Together with his renowned surgical expertise he is second to none in his field of cardio thoracic surgery.
From my initial consultation, surgery and the follow up appointments Mr Akturek has always given me clear explanations of everything that would happen, he gave me the confidence and reassurance I needed at a very worrying time. I cannot thank him and his team enough and will always be grateful.
As well as his undoubted cardiologist and surgical skills (!) Dincer has been kind, thoughful and responsive both before and after my operation. He instilled a level of confidence in me and my wife which enabled us to enter the process with only mild trepidation. While I am still in the recovery phase (which is taking longer than I hoped!) I would thoroughly recommend Dincer.
Mr Dincer Aktuerk performed a double bypass procedure. From the moment I met him, i felt completely confident. He is very charming and explains matters in a very easy to understand factual manner. He visited me several times post procedure and I was extremely satisfied with his aftercare. My operation has been very successful and I would not hesitate in recommending Mr Aktuerk.
Following from a cardiac angiogram test in June 2025 which was carried out by Dr Oliver Gottman (HCA) cardiologist I was recommended to see Mr Dincer Akturk at Mayo clinic. As Advised by Mr Akturk I was booked to have my operation (double coronary bypass grafting with endoscopic vein harvesting) at the Wellington North Hospital on the 14th July 2025. Now about just over 3 months post-surgery I am feeling very well and getting back to the active lifestyle and has been discharged by Mr Akturk. This is far exceeded all our expectations considering the seriousness of this kind of procedure. Every step in the journey from initial consultation to the operation and post-surgery care has been excellent. He is Extremely professional and thoughtful surgeon who delivers great care to his patients and families to make them feel as relaxed and confident as is possible in such circumstances. I have no hesitation in referring my family and friends to him as I know they will be well looked after by him and his team. Mr Akturk thank you for all you have done for me. We are inspired by level of your dedication, precision and professionalism.
My experience with Mr Akteurk was a positive one. He was calm and professional, and most importantly performed my surgery effectively.
Mr Aktuerk was wonderful. He explained the procedure, the risks and was very clear when answering my queries. Very reassuring manner which was appreciated not just by me but family members. Thorughly recommended especially for a triple by-pas.
