Dr Leila Soudah, on Beach Rd. She is great, finally I have found gyno who listenes. I have been here 6yrs. Thanks, I appreciate the recommendation Whatever you do, do [b'>NOT[/b'> got to Dr Leila Soudah. She is [i'>aggressive[/i'> and persistent and will immediately prescribe medication without doing a second test. I went to check if I had hormone issues, because I wanted to find an endocrine specialist and the blood tests alone cost [u'>9000 AED[/u'>, and she doesnt take most insurances. She requests that you only use her lab for simple tests like blood glucose, which can be done for almost no cost anywhere else. I was in shock at how aggressive they were with prescribing medication for thyroid. They didnt even do a second TSH test to check for thyroid, and told me I am negative for PCOS. I went to 2 other doctors and they gave me the exact opposite diagnosis! An ultrasound found I had Polycystic Ovaries but Regular TSH levels. Thank god I did a second check and refused to pick up her thyroid prescription. I have been warning everyone. Why are you forced to take simple blood tests at her lab? for 9000 dhs for simple test and 1500 for blood glucose, then they wanted more for gut bacteria tests? It's basically paying their rent on beach road.

At her lab it costs upwards of 1500 AED I was in shock at how aggressive they were with prescribing medication for thyroid.

She is a scam that is in it for the fame, I didnt realise it at the time, but the more I look at her social media the more I am shocked by her tactics. I can only imagine how much people are willing to pay for infertility treatments. Be careful.
