My son, Arjun, had a fever that just wouldn't break for five days. We were so scared. The ER at Gleneagles was busy, but once we got to see Dr. Aafrin Shabbir, she just had this calm way about her. She actually got down on his level to talk to him, which made him stop crying. She explained everything to us in simple terms—it wasn't just a virus, it was a specific bacterial thing. She didn't push for a hospital stay right away, gave us a clear plan to try at home first, and called us herself the next day to check. Seeing my boy finally smile and eat again... that's because of her care.

I was quite anxious about my recurring headaches. The hospital is large and finding the department took a moment, but Dr. Shabbir’s clinic was quiet. She listened so patiently, never rushed me. Her voice was very gentle. She said we would take it step-by-step, and that itself was a relief. The treatment she suggested was simple but effective. I feel much better now, not just physically. She has a very kind way of practicing medicine.

Wow, what a difference! I'd been dealing with fatigue and just feeling 'off' for months. Other doctors brushed it off. Dr. Shabbir? She actually looked at my whole history, connected some dots I never would have. Turns out it was a vitamin deficiency and a thyroid thing! Started the supplements and meds she recommended, and within three weeks, my energy is back! I feel like myself again. Seriously, Dr. Aafrin Shabbir is fantastic. The parking situation at Gleneagles is a hassle, but she is totally worth it!
