I actually had a pretty bad experience at Mr Madhu's. He gave me a discount at the the time, but one year on, I am having to have the whole lot done again. Worked out very expensive in the long run. I wouldn't go to him for anything more than a simple filling.

I have been going to Dr Chris Johansson between 2009-2010. I went back to New York for a year and now I'm back. I heard that he is now with Dr Michael's Dental Clinic in Al Wasl road. I went to the clinic and I have to tell you, I was really impressed with the whole set up. On the expensive side, but definitely worth it.04 3949433 is their number. Yes, Dr. Chris Johansson is now on board Dr. Michael's Dental Clinic in Umm Suqeim. He used to work for another clinic, but we met him at Dr. Michael's a few days back when my husband had his braces adjusted (by Dr. Rasha).

Dr Madhu is brilliant. He is very gentle, takes his time, explains all the procedures and is very reasonably priced. His clinic is spotless . I have a serious phobia of dentists and have no problems going to his clinic. Just wish I knew him long ago !

Hi. My husband and I have been with Dr. Michael's Dental Clinic (along Umm Suqeim) and we're very happy with their services. We recommend Dr. Alex Tosev. He's a cool guy and he really knows what he's doing. He's done my crowns and I am very happy with the results. You can also look for Dr. Chris Johansson. He's my husband's personal favorite.

My personal favorite is Dr. Ali (as he is known among patients ) at DentCare in healthcare city. Not as expensive as the big fancy clinics, yet impeccable in terms of hygiene and work. Does a fantastic job, my entire family have started to see him.

I'd also recommend Dr Madhu or his co-worker, Dr Christopher. I'd agree that on first impression the building looks a bit shabby, but the reception and clinic itself are spotless. And hygiene appears as good as anywhere else I've been. I was there in January for a bit of a tricky extraction, spent quite some time in the chair, lots of meds, and it cost me a grand total of 500aed. Went back later for the replacement of an old filling - again, not quite so straightforward - and I was charged 350aed, so very reasonable, I thought.

dr. Marco FEDELE , is in Crowne Plaza bldg, close to Fairmont Hotel...very good, clean and reasonable prices... Oh, that's the first time this dentist is mentioned. Can you please tell us more about him and the cost? I would like a crown. He is in Dubai since many many years. From Switzerland , very professional and he never gave me the impression of insisting or pushing me for getting money. I can tell you about my problem the full quotation I got,, ...but each one of us has different problem.

Dr Madhu's clinic is perfectly clean. The building is rather scruffy but once you step I to his office it's a completely different story. Went to see him for a filling that had fallen out. Had to have an injection to numb the area and I didn't feel a thing! He was SO gentle with the needle it didn't hurt or sting at all and I hate needles! I also needed to have wisdom teeth removed but he was unable to do it there. Depending of how yours is, he may or may not be able to do it. Good luck and don't worry about it! I only went there because of the recommendation from here and was very pleased!

I think it's very Clean I wouldn't let him nr my kids mouths if I thought it didn't. I think people think this way due to where it located above a supermarket in karama, I mean the lift up to his clinic is less than disarable.o Just isnt in the big fancy villa in jumeria, thats y his prices are cheap . I don't trust dr micheals they said i needed alot of unnecessary work and the dentist made alot f appointments just to get one crown done, abit money money money to me.

I like Drs Nicholas and Asp particularly Dr Chris or Dr Thomas in Jumeirah as the clinic is really hygienic and has standards, I am sure many people have had fabulous experiences with Dr Mahdu and he gets great reviews on here, but my personal experience was it wasn't the cleanest place I'd been...
