Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Most excellent in his field
We were so thrilled to have Dr Turk in Pensacola, as we had to drive to Orlando for care prior to his arrival. He was caring, compassionate, and truly helped my daughter, not only with seizures, but also by offering encouragement. He always told her he wouldn't stop until she was seizure-free. My family cannot sing his praises enough. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors and hope to see him again!

Kind Regards
Dr. Turk, we heard that you left Sacred Heart and are disappointed. On behalf of my brother (your patient) and myself, I wanted to thank you for giving him back his quality of life in treating his focal seizures. Also, thank you for referring him to Dr. Perez, another excellent doctor, for treatment of his hydrocephalus. I will never forget our excitement after the Lumbar Puncture procedure when he turned to look at you and happily remembered and stated your name!Thank you for taking care of my brother and being a friend to him. May goodness and blessings follow you always, Forever Turkish.

Best Neurologist EVER
Dr. Somnezturk is caring, patient, and genuine. He has left the Pensacola office and I am sad that he is no longer my neurologist. I have a rare vascular issue and he was incredible helping me get my focal seizures under control.

BEST DR.EVER!
I’m new to the area and was searching for doctors because I have brain tumor and I was having some other things going on with me. I was recommended to Dr. And my first visit, I absolutely fell in love with this doctors, compassion and care for his patience he gave me very good advice. We did some tests, and afterwards come to a conclusion on my second visit I was a totally new person by his advice and his care or my situation in the visit, I actually told him that I wish he could be my doctor for everything ! Dr. Turk is one of the best doctors I have seen in years. He has a wonderful bedside manner and really invest himself into his patience to oversee that they are well taken care of.. I want to give him 110% for going above and beyond my treatment and I am so thankful that he was recommended to me. I don’t think anyone else could’ve got it right thank you so much Dr Turk you’re an amazing doctor.

Over the past 10 years I have been to many places including Mayo clinic and received no explainations or any diagnosis. Dr. Sonmezturk spent just about an hour with me and was fully focused on what my stroy was and what I was telling him. He examined me in detail and was able to give me a diagnosis. Everything made perfect sense when he explained what was hapening to me and my family.

The best neurologist I have been to. I have had my condition since childhood. Countless doctor visits and neurologists could not find anything. Dr. Sonmezturk diagnosed me with epilepsy and after treatment I've improved miraculously. I have never felt better. Thank you Dr. Sonmezturk

Dr. Sonmezturk has been blessing for me and my family. After a major stroke I started having bad seizures. With his help I am seizure free and have recovered from most of my stroke issues. He is very patient and he never rushes you. After every visit he calls to check if we have any additional questions. He not only listens to me he also listens to my husband and answers all of our questions. Since we were so frightened after my stroke and seizures he provided his private cell phone number for us to call him during emergencies. He is the best!

Over 8 years, the one and only time that I needed help from him with medicine changes he totally failed as a neurologist. He gave me the wrong medicines and wasted over a year of my life, until I pursued assistance from a more qualified, experienced neurologist!! This doctor will waste your time!
