Explanation

This was my first time seeing Dr. Cikurel and I was really impressed with how smooth and easy the whole process has been (I have had around 5 appointments overall including tests), in what can often be a very worrying and unsettled time for patients. I was put at ease straight away by her extremely professional and comprehensive consultations. She also strikes a wonderful balance of not only being a great consultant from a clinical perspective, but she also adds the human touch to her consultations, which made me feel supported (and calmer) throughout - you can really tell how much Dr. Cikurel cares for and is invested in the well-being of her patients. Her secretary, Lauren, is extremely responsive and efficient, meaning that the scheduling and organising of appointments and tests was seamless and easy with no stress involved. I would recommend Dr. Cikurel to everyone as I felt I was in the best hands possible.

Dr. Cikurel is extremely warm and caring. In a very difficult moment as being diagnosed with brain tumour she has been the light we needed. Most doctors didn’t know how to cheer me up, while dr. Cikurel infused a sense of hope and happiness as soon as we talked to her. She is the love we needed in this difficult journey

Explanation

Both my wife and I are patients under Dr Cikurel for different reasons. My wife has a complicated and difficult set of symptoms at the moment, which has taken a lot of investigation, and Dr Cikurel has been incredibly kind and helpful, and put a lot of time and effort in to trying to understand what is wrong with her. We are finally starting to see improvements following Dr Cikurel’s treatment plan. I saw Dr Cikurel originally for epilepsy, and she helped me adjust medication to get some new seizure symptoms under control, and is now helping me with migraine/headaches. She has been thorough in investigations and very helpful in trying to find resolutions. And maybe most importantly, she is very kind and personable. I can’t really recommend her highly enough.
