I honestly don’t usually take the time to write reviews, but after everything I’ve been through, I feel that Dr. Mohamed Istrabadi truly deserves my deepest gratitude. for Dr. Mohamed Istrabadi i really appreciate him and very thankful for him because he’s giving me a second chance at life. I had been living with a very large 6.5 kg tumor for almost four years. It affected my daily life, my confidence, and my ability to enjoy life. I was scared and uncertain about what the future would hold, but from the moment I met dr istrabadi , I knew I was in good hands because the way he comfort me it and give me streght to overcome my fear. the professionalism, confidence, and compassion gave me hope when I needed it most. his incredible skill and dedication, my surgery was successful, and today I am recovering well. For the first time in years, I feel like I have the opportunity to truly live my life again. I also want to thank him for the kindness beyond the operating room. When my insurance could not cover my surgery, he never gave up on helping me. Together with Ms. Mybel, they guided me toward financial assistance through Friends for Cancer in Sharjah, making it possible for me to receive the treatment I desperately needed. That act of kindness changed my life, and I will never forget it. No words can truly express how grateful I am. You didn’t just remove a tumor you gave me back my health, my confidence, and my future. From the bottom of my heart, i really say thank you to Dr. Mohamed Istrabadi, for exceptional care, dedication, and compassion. I will always be grateful ...

I had a really great experience with Dr. Mohammed Istarabadi. My recent visit was very pleasant, and thankfully my surgery (bilateral orchiopexy) was successful in his hands. He is very skilled, professional, and has a very light and gentle hand, which made the whole experience much easier. His nurse was also extremely helpful, kind, and supportive throughout. I’m very grateful to both of them and would definitely recommend Dr. Mohammed.
