Patient Experience
I'd been to a few doctors about this constant fatigue and stomach pain. Everyone had a different theory. Dr. Tariq was the first one who actually listened to the whole timeline, asked about things no one else did, and ordered a specific scan. Turns out it was a tricky gallbladder issue that wasn't showing up on standard tests. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I'm just relieved someone figured it out. (Patient of Dr. Tariq)
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous about any kind of procedure. Dr. Tariq walked me through exactly what would happen, step by step, and it was over before I knew it. The whole thing felt very straightforward. Follow-up was easy, and the scar is barely noticeable now. It was just... simple, which is what you want. (Patient of Dr. Tariq)
Parking at Burjeel was a bit of a hunt that morning, I won't lie. But once inside, the place felt calm. The front desk lady saw I was flustered and helped me find my way. The nurse who took my vitals was really kind and cracked a joke that settled my nerves. It's those little things from the staff that make a big difference when you're not feeling great. (Patient of Dr. Tariq)
What stood out with Dr. Alhamid was how he talked to me, not at me. He sat down, made eye contact, and didn't rush. When I had questions, he drew a little diagram on his notepad. He has a quiet, steady way about him that makes you feel like you're in good hands. You can tell he actually cares how you're doing. (Patient of Dr. Tariq)
Had a persistent cough that wouldn't go away. Saw Dr. Tazeen at Burjeel. She was direct, asked the right questions, and ordered a simple test I hadn't considered. Got a clear diagnosis and a treatment plan that worked. No fuss, just effective care. The hospital system is efficient. (Patient of Dr. Tazeen)
I was quite nervous about some ongoing stomach issues. Dr. Tazeen has a very calm way about her. She listened without rushing me, explained everything in a quiet, clear voice, and made me feel heard. The clinic was busy, but she never made me feel like a number. I left feeling much lighter. (Patient of Dr. Tazeen)
Honestly, I put off seeing a doctor for weeks. Finally went to Burjeel Medical City and got Dr. Ahamad. What a relief! She pinpointed the issue straight away, was so reassuring, and her energy was just what I needed. The prescription worked like a charm. Wish I'd gone sooner! (Patient of Dr. Tazeen)
Needed a general check-up for a new job. Appointment with Dr. Tazeen was straightforward. She was thorough, explained my results clearly without medical jargon, and gave practical advice for a couple of minor things. Parking took a minute, but the visit itself was smooth and professional. (Patient of Dr. Tazeen)
My mother was admitted with a bad fever and confusion. We were really scared. Dr. Thandava was the one who saw her. He sat with us in the family room and explained everything in simple words—what he thought it was, what tests he needed, and what the plan would be. He didn't rush us. He answered every single one of our questions, even the silly ones. Because of his clear way of talking, we felt calm and knew she was in good hands. Her recovery was smooth, and we are so grateful for his kindness to our whole family. (Patient of Dr. Thandava)
My husband had persistent stomach pain for weeks. Other places just gave him pills. At Burjeel, Dr. Thandava actually listened. He asked detailed questions, did a thorough physical exam himself, and ordered the right scans. He called me directly with the results, was honest about what it showed, and laid out the treatment options clearly. No medical jargon, just straight talk. The issue was resolved with a simple procedure. We finally have answers, and my husband is pain-free. Dr. Thandava gets straight to the point and gets results. (Patient of Dr. Thandava)
Bringing my young son to any hospital fills me with dread. He was very ill, and I was a nervous wreck. Dr. Thandava has such a gentle manner. He spoke softly, not just to me, but directly to my son, making him feel less afraid. He took his time, never made us feel like a number. He explained my son's condition with such care and made sure I understood every step of the care plan before we left. The whole experience, because of him, was far less frightening than I'd imagined. A truly compassionate doctor. (Patient of Dr. Thandava)
After months of feeling run-down and getting nowhere with other doctors, I saw Dr. Thandava. What a difference! He actually pieced together symptoms I thought were unrelated. He was so thorough and positive. When he figured it out—it was a vitamin deficiency that was easily fixed—I wanted to hug him! I have my energy back. I'm telling all my friends about him. If you need someone who will dig for an answer and not give up, he's your doctor. I'm just so relieved! (Patient of Dr. Thandava)
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging fatigue and stomach issue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Thasleena was different. She actually sat and listened to everything, even the stuff I thought was silly. She ordered a few more specific tests at Burjeel, and it turned out to be something pretty rare with my thyroid. I'm just relieved someone finally took me seriously and figured it out. (Patient of Dr. Thasleena)
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Thasleena made it so straightforward. She explained exactly what she'd do, how long it would take, and what the scar might look like. The whole thing was over in what felt like minutes. I was in and out of the hospital in a morning, and the recovery was exactly as she said it would be. No drama, just good care. (Patient of Dr. Thasleena)
The parking garage was completely full when I arrived for my appointment, which stressed me out. But from the moment I walked into Burjeel Medical City, the staff were so calm and helpful. The lady at reception saw I was flustered and helped me sort it. Even the nurse who took my vitals was really kind. It made waiting to see Dr. Thasleena much easier. The place just has a calm feeling to it. (Patient of Dr. Thasleena)
What I remember most is how Dr. Thasleena talked to my elderly mother. She didn't just talk to me. She got down to her eye level, spoke clearly without being patronizing, and checked in with her to make sure she understood each part of the treatment plan. You could tell she genuinely sees the person, not just the patient file. That kind of respect means everything. (Patient of Dr. Thasleena)
I'd been to a few doctors about this constant fatigue and weird stomach pain. Everyone had a different theory. Dr. Thomas actually listened to the whole, messy story, asked questions no one else had, and ordered a specific test. Turns out it was a rare vitamin deficiency linked to a digestive issue. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I'm on a simple treatment now and feel like myself again. (Patient of Dr. Thomas)
Had to get a minor cyst removed. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital experience than the procedure itself. Dr. Thomas and his nurse made it so straightforward. He talked me through each step as he did it, which kept my mind off things. It was over in twenty minutes. The whole thing was just... easy. No drama, no fuss, just good care. (Patient of Dr. Thomas)
The place itself, Burjeel Medical City, is impressive, but it's the people who make it. My husband was with me, and the front desk staff helped him find a coffee shop while he waited. The nurse who took my vitals noticed I was anxious and just chatted about the weather to distract me. Dr. Thomas was the main event, of course, but that whole team effort made a stressful day much smoother. (Patient of Dr. Thomas)
What stuck with me about Dr. Thomas was how he just... talked to you. He sat down, didn't rush, and looked at me, not just the chart. When I got confused about my medication schedule, he didn't just repeat himself; he drew a little diagram on a notepad. It felt like he was a really knowledgeable person trying to solve a problem with me, not for some abstract 'patient'. (Patient of Dr. Thomas)
