Dr. Saba Fathima

Our 14-year-old daughter's first period became a nightmare with severe cramps and abnormal bleeding. Dr. Saba didn't dismiss it as 'normal',she discovered a bleeding disorder through meticulous testing, created a teen-friendly management plan, and even recommended helpful mobile apps. She made my daughter feel empowered, not embarrassed.

During my emergency ectopic pregnancy at 2 AM, Dr. Saba performed laparoscopic surgery that saved my tube and my future fertility. What stood out was how she personally updated my husband every 30 minutes during surgery and visited me three times daily during recovery, once just to sit and hold my hand.

For my routine antenatal checkup at 28 weeks, Dr. Saba noticed subtle changes in my gait and discovered early symphysis pubis dysfunction. Her prescribed physiotherapy and pregnancy belt prevented months of pain. She remembers tiny details from previous visits that even I forget!

After my radical hysterectomy for endometrial cancer, Dr. Saba designed a unique recovery protocol involving aqua therapy at Manipal Hospital's facility. She modified pain management twice daily based on my feedback and personally demonstrated breathing exercises at my bedside.

As an 82-year-old with complex post-menopausal bleeding, I was terrified of another dismissive consultation. Dr. Saba Fathima spent 45 minutes explaining my endometrial biopsy results with hand-drawn diagrams, coordinated with oncology herself, and called my daughter to ensure family understanding. Her holistic approach treated me as a person, not just a pathology.
