Wonderful person/doctor. After 5 years of struggle with various doctors and two miscarriages , finally found someone who knew what she was doing i.e. Dr Susan in Sharjah and then Dr Tazyeen. Both of them have excellent knowledge and more than 2 decades of experience. Dr Susan's clinic is quite economical but you have to be extremely patient with waiting times - sometimes it can take up to 2 hours before you can see the doctor. Dr Tazyeen's clinic is a bit pricey but waiting times is not as bad and she spends at least 15-20 minutes with each patient explaining everything related to the pregnancy plus additional tips on how to maintain your weight! Over the last 5 years I have seen at least 7 different doctors and besides these two, none of them had enough expertise to deal with complicated/high risk pregnancies. And it is not just the expertise, some are just extremely insensitive. I remember one of the toughest times was when I had my first miscarriage - the doctor just informed us so casually and gave that "move on - next customer please" look. Some were sincere and compassionate as well but just didn't have the expertise to deal with my case. It is only last year that my Vitamin D deficiency was diagnosed (after 4 years of TTC). Most of these clinics are just there to make money. If it is a straightforward pregnancy, it might be okay to go to these clinics but God forbid if you are like me and have had some problems TTC, then it would be worth going to Dr Susan or Dr Tazyeen. I am sure there might be other good doctors as well but out of the lot that I visited, these two were the only ones worth recommending. One doctor I would never recommend is Dr Farhana at Wilson hospital near Taawun Sharjah. Was extremely rude to me as well as my husband!
