I can also highly recommend Iberry, in fact I only made a posting last Thursday on the same topic, but mine was a broken iPad, screen collected, replaced and returned within 2 hours, exceptionally good customer service.

Perhaps some due diligence is a good idea before visiting doctors who may work in 'villas'. I use medical practitioners who are based in Healthcare City who are strictly licensed, have to undergo continued education to maintain their licenses, some ting I very much doubt happens with doctors who are overseen by the DHA. If a doctor is allowed to use the title in Healthcare City that's because he has undergone the years of training necessary and has earned the right to be called doctor, this again is strictly enforced. Thankfully not all doctors are the same as the one you visited, as you said good and bad in all professions.

I'm currently seeing Kris Rai at California Chiropracric and Sports Medicine Center, in Healthcare City. I can highly recommend him if you can't make it to Studio City. A golfing friend was being treated by Kris and was very happy with the results she was receiving and recommended I see him for a problem I'm having with my shoulder.

I have tried many foundations but my favorite is still the Giorgio Armani Silk Foundation. If you apply with a brush you can build up the layers and blend to give a fuller coverage.

I have been going to Angie at The Nail Spa in Arabian Ranches since they opened. she is very professional, it's spotlessly clean, and they also use the Lycon wax, I wouldn't go anywhere else. Also very good at eyebrow threading :)

I can also add my recommendation for Dr.Chris, he is extremely professional and methodical, he really does take his time, something I think is important when undertaking anything cosmetic. I personally would be very wary of a visiting doctor when undergoing treatment of this nature. If you need to see him urgently and he is in NY what do you do?

Sophie27, you mention that your insurance covers BHRT, could I ask you which insurance you have? I am searching EW for BHRT and read positive experiences for Eternity Medicine and London clinic. I want to make an appointment but am afraid it will be very costly. In the coming month we can renew our policy/insurance so that is why I am asking. Hi Axelle, I use BUPA International the full cover, whilst it is expensive everything is covered. Again costs for the medicines will vary depending upon your personal requirements, quantity that is taken so it's really not possible to quote a figure as its all specific for you personally. Sorry to be a little vague.

I had a very interesting chat with the receptionists whilst we were waiting as I had commented on their spotless clinic, and they explained that all clinics in Dhcc do not fall under the DHA, they are licensed separately and the standards are much higher than the DHA. They were preparing fir an upcoming inspection. All doctors must complete continuing education courses to renew their licenses. So it's good to know from a patients point of view that standards are being monitored and maintained. This was all news to me, I was completely unaware of this, but nice to know.:)

I agree with AnonDubai, my husband has used Dr.Kallmayer at the German Heart Center in Healthcare City. it may be a little further for you to drive but its worth it, as they have an excellent reputation, very thorough and you know that the clinics are all strictly monitored in Healthcare City, unlike others in Dubai. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Kallmayer.

If you own property or a business in Dubai consult a lawyer who will arrange for you and your husband and any eligible family members to sign documents giving you and your husband Piwer of Attorney. Under Sharia Law family members have a claim to a percentage of your property, business in Dubai. Without a POA your property etc will automatically be divided to eligible family members by the Sharia Court ie, mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters.

Retirement in Northern Cyprus :biggrin: GE I'm interested in property there, not sure if it was you who posted a link to some estate agents in Northern Cyprus before, could you re post them please if you have them to hand or any insights or recommendations you can give. Am madly researching at the moment so any tips most appreciated! TIA We recently bought a wonderful property on Aphrodite Hills, with stunning views over the golf course and the Mediteranean. The reason we bought there is that its a gated community, and as we only use it at the moment for holidays, its easy to lock up when we leave but its monitored whilst we are not there. We used Colin at Premier Residences, covering all of the Greek part of the island his email address is [email protected] .He was so experienced and as GE mentioned its a must to have a property that has its title deeds, but he will walk you through everything. As we were on a holiday when we saw the property that we finally bought, he suggested it would be better for us to meet a solicitor to arrange for him to have Power of Attorney, so he drove us to the solicitors and this made things much smoother when it came to signing the final papers.We didn't have to fly back. I couldn't recommend them enough, very professional, and friendly. We really love the island, after Dubai and the traffic its a breath of fresh air. We were there at Christmas and only passed one car on the road one day! Looking forward to our next visit at Easter. It reminds me of how Dubai was 25 years ago, sleepy but very friendly. Bear in mind Chezmoi, Aphrodite Hills is on the Greek side of the island ! Oh thanks for pointing that out GE! I did not realise Aphrodite Hills was on the Greek side, should have done from the name! :) I am really more interested in the northern side of the island, I would consider the south only something was impossible in the north such as the internet, but from what you say it seems good enough. Hope you have a lovely holiday there in May. :) Just one last thought Chez Moi, you have to research properties very thoroughly using a good lawyer as i have heard of people buying only to find out a Greek Cypriot has a claim to the land when their family was forced to leave. Need a good lawyer to be safe. On the whole its a wonderful island with the North only taking up around 20%, have fun whilst you are searching, there is something there for everyone if you keep looking. :cool:bye:

Hi Appletiser I have been going to Maria herself at Maria Dowling for many years, my sister goes to Maxine and is happy with the cut and colour. I also know Rebecca and Charlotte cut well . I can't comment on T&G but as they are all employees they don't have a vested interest in customer satisfaction as an owner would, but that's just my opinion .

we discovered the best thing is make visits to many areas to see where you feel the most comfortable then we decided that as it was going to be empty for parts of the year we thought it safer in an area that could be monitored, water leaks etc more than break ins. We have made lots of new friends through the golf club, and as we have no family in our home countries we feel that cyprus for us is beginning to feel like home. The perfect thing is that it's only 4 hours from Dubai should we want to pop over.

It's my understanding that the labor law is what governs all ESBand Gratuity, no matter what the handbook states, I would go to the labor court once you receive your final statement send ask their advice. It is based on your final basic salary, take along your last 3 pay slips. Tattle Bogle is correct as to how it is calculated, and if you broke a contract, all of this is taken into account.

When you sign your contract the division should be explained, and the divisions written out separately. you read your contract so it's not a secret. The labor law is online for anyone to read at any time. If the categories are not divided in your contract they cannot say later when it's time to pay gratuity that your basic salary is less than the amount in your contract. Hope this makes sense.

I have been seeing Dr.Anna Sepiolo at Dubai London Clinic who is very thorough ensuring you have regular screenings which are very important when taking Bio Identical Hormones. A blood test is required to see exactly what you require, and then your prescription is made up accordingly by the Compounding Pharmacy in Dubai Health Care City . I have been taking these for almost 2 years, my skin and hair look amazing, and of course all the additional benefits of no hot flushes. Ginza as each prescription is different for each individual the costs will vary, ie do you need oestrogen, testosterone (creams) and progesterone ( tablets) You will only come to know this after your blood test. You may also be prescribed pregnenolone which may help with memory loss. The prescriptions are for a 3 month supply so it does add up. My medical insurance covers mine. You could call the compounding pharmacy and ask the potential costs per month. As I mentioned you may not require everything.

Ladies do any of you know if all of the trainers mentioned below have registered themselves with the sports council showing they are qualified instructors not just saying they are personal trainers after taking a course online. There is a new law that has recently been passed I read about it in a recent edition of Gulf News stating all fitness professionals now have to register and show their qualifications before being approved to work. We have seen some terrible personal trainers when we are in the gym, they have no clue when it comes to dealing with clients who may be slightly more ' mature' should we say.

If you are getting cold calls from ANY agent report them to RERA immediately, it is against the law and the agents know this (the max fine is AED 50,000). They can also be fined if they send emails without the 'opt out' clause in them. It is 'dog eat dog' out there for agents now and they will do anything to get new clients, including selling their own grandmothers. Thank you mollymoomoo, i will give RERA a call

Hi, i have been going to Vilafortuny Dental and Laser Center, and have no complaints. Their technician is very knowledgeable, and thorough. I can highly recommend her and have been more than happy with the results. Not painful as they use one or the new generation lasers and it blows cool air as its working. I would stress that you do need to complete the course, as you may be happy with the results after 3 sessions but to obtain the best long term result you do need to do the full course, IMO. Im not sure of the costs as i bought a package, when they were running a promotion, give them a call to see if its still available.

The organic supermarket in The Village Mall in Jumeirah is where I buy mine, and it lasts for ever ? even though I use it nightly. It is pure 100% organic Rosehip oil. I previously used the one from Trilogy so can honestly say there is no difference. Neither smell particularly nice, but they leave your skin feeling AMAZING when you wake up the next morning. Add a few drops to your face, massage in and leave it to work its magic overnight. It's the best 85 dhs I have spent.

I honestly don't think any reputable medical person will make house visits. They are licensed to work in a medical facility their medical malpractice insurance that every medical person is required to have will not be valid in a private residence. I honestly think you would be taking a huge risk using people who come to the house, if any are available. My husband is a great fan of Susana at California Chiropractic and Sports Medicine Center in Healthcare City. He says she gives the best sports massages she should be good, as she previously worked for the Portuguese National Football Team, is always telling him stories about Ronaldo ? She is a Physio so I would give her a call 04-4298292

Hi Licorice, we have just purchased property and the agent we used could not have been more helpful, so different from the agents here in Dubai. As the previous ladies have said its a perfect time to buy as prices are so low. Our agent helped to arrange for a solicitor to cover Power of Attorney, therefore we did not have to fly over for signing and registering the property at the land dept. Our agent literally walked us through everything, I cannot recommend them highly enough. Take a look at the website www.premierresidences.com, this may help you before you fly over. The agents contact details are listed. We are so happy we bought there as we can take the opportunity of popping over for Eid holidays, escaping the summer heat. Good luck ?

I have blonde highlights and literally have been followed on numerous occasions by ladies wanting to know which hairdresser I go to.

You can take the cat to the Municipality Vets for all vaccinations, located on Al Khawaneej Road about a 30 minute drive from JUM, but the fees will be considerably less between 60-90dhs. They do not carry out check ups, so you would have to take the terrapins to another vet. I too have used Umm Suqueim Vets and they are good, but will overcharge for vaccinations as all the vets do. All domestic animals are required to be microchipped again the private vets will charge a high fee for this, it's much cheaper through the municipality. You can google it to find the location, it's very straightforward,. Hope this helps ?

When I have dealt with limited contracts in the past employees have had to pay back 45 days salary and received a 6 month immigration ban This one a few years ago so it may of changed If you resign before the completion of your limited contract, you are breaking the terms of your contract you will owe your employer 45 days salary, and will not receive a ticket or gratuity as you have broken the contract.

What I particularly liked was the customer service, if I had a question or concern it was answered immediately. They would keep me updated on the project and gave me a schedule of how the work would be carried out ( it's a lengthy process when retiling) The finished result was stunning, and the workmen tidied up as they went along. Here is the contact number as I know they also install pools have a chat with them, always good to get a few quotes. 0559725187

And how many sessions u need for all ur body Sarahmohamed, the machine at Vilafortuny isn't painful at all, they apply a gel over the area, then all you feel is the cold air blowing from the machine as it passes over the surface of the skin. The therapist will advise you on sun exposure etc, depending on the area lasered and the number of sessions for your hair type. I am European and she recommended 6 sessions between 3- 6 weeks apart.

I can HIGHLY recommend Jim Will Fix It, we have used them twice, to service the entire house, they covered any furniture with large rolls of plastic so nothing was damaged when cleaning the vents. They were very thorough. They will hose down the units also. Better to have them serviced before the high temperatures and dust storms kick in as that's when they will shut down and you don't want that to happen in August! I've been there and trust me you don't want that! They sometimes have a special offer on if you have the entire house serviced. The cost depends on how many units you have. Who bears the cost depends on what is written in your lease, some landlords will absorb the cost, if they are eligible for maintenance. Usually every 3-4 months.
