Dr. Michael is a heaven sent to me. I only came for a normal check up, next thing I knew, we’re doing the surgery. He helped me understand the cause of my pain; the pros and cons, the procedure of the surgery or what is his plan for my case; until to the post operative care. He is very transparent and accommodating to all our questions. My spine was 68 degrees and I’m now down to 21 degrees. As a person who lived with scoliosis for 20+ years, this is deftly a success! He is indeed one of the best spine doctors in Dubai! I absolutely recommend him to all my colleagues.

I have looked after their patients

Dr Rex Michael is an expert in the treatment of spinal conditions in both children and adults, having trained and gained considerable experience at some of the best centres in the UK for this work. I have sent my patients to him for an opinion on spinal deformity, and they have appreciated his expertise, attention to detail, thorough assessment, and clear and honest explanations. He Is calm and patient, taking time to reach his conclusions. I know he has rapidly made an impression in a short time in Dubai with patients and staff alike because of his excellent bedside manner. He takes his work very seriously but he is a very approachable and caring doctor too. I am very fortunate to have him as a colleague in this city.
