Dr. Sohaib has truly been a blessing for my vision issues in Dubai. His genuine humility, calm demeanor, and incredible patience make him stand out as one of the best doctors I've encountered. He not only listened attentively to my concerns but also conducted thorough tests, leading to a recommendation for cataract surgery. Facing a substantial cost, Dr. Sohaib went above and beyond. Learning I was paying in cash, he not only guided me towards charitable organisations but also offered to perform the surgeries on his day off to secure a discount from the hospital. The level of dedication shown by him throughout the entire process, from surgery to follow-ups, is truly commendable. The care provided during both eye surgeries was exceptional, and Dr. Sohaib's personal commitment ensured that my well-being was the top priority. The post-surgery follow-ups were thoughtful, with practical recommendations that significantly eased my pain and sped up my recovery. Dr. Sohaib is a compassionate professional who goes the extra mile for his patients. Without a doubt, he has left a lasting impression, and I wholeheartedly recommend him for his outstanding medical expertise and genuine care

Excellent is an understatement for Dr Sohaib! He is simply a role model for all doctors to follow, he is pleasant, patient, intelligent , always trying to find the best solutions for his patient.and explains it in the most simple way. I have seen many doctors but have never felt so good and so reassured as I did with Dr Sohaib. He resolved a long standing eye problem I had even in the US they couldn’t solve. Most recently my cataract surgeries were seamless, successfull, and with no issues whatsoever. Results are 100% perfect! Simply put , Dr Sohaib is the best in his profession. Bar none ! .
