Patient Experience
My 8-year-old son had a fever that just wouldn't break, and I was really scared. Dr. Irfan was so calm with him, explaining everything in a way a kid could understand. He didn't just rush to prescribe the strongest thing; he took time to figure out what was actually going on. The waiting room was packed, but once we got in, he made us feel like we were his only patients that day. My son left feeling brave, not scared, and that meant everything to me. (Patient of Dr. Raja)
My elderly mother was admitted, and as her main caregiver, I was a wreck. Dr. Irfan called me personally after her initial tests to walk me through the results, even though it was late. He never talked down to me and answered every single one of my anxious questions, no matter how small. He treated my mom with such gentle respect. Having a doctor who keeps the family in the loop makes a hard situation so much easier to handle. (Patient of Dr. Raja)
Had a weird stomach thing going on for weeks. Saw Dr. Irfan. He listened, ran the right tests, figured it out. Fixed it. No fuss. Good doctor. (Patient of Dr. Raja)
I walked into Burjeel with what I thought was just a bad case of exhaustion. Felt run down for months. Dr. Irfan, though, he picked up on this tiny detail I mentioned about my hands feeling cold. He asked a few more questions, ordered some specific blood work I'd never had before. Turns out, it was a thyroid issue hiding in plain sight. The clinic was running behind that morning, so I had to wait a bit, but he apologized for the delay when he came in. He laid out a clear plan—medication, follow-up, what to watch for. It wasn't a magic cure, but for the first time in a long time, I felt like someone had a map for what was wrong. (Patient of Dr. Raja)
