"This hospital has a nice, modern building, but unfortunately that is where the quality of service ends. I booked an appointment for 8:40 AM and was not able to see the doctor until 9:40 AM. The pharmacy also had extremely long waiting times. I recently had lab work done, and by the time the results became available, I was no longer in Abu Dhabi. When I contacted the hospital, I was repeatedly told that the doctor could not send a prescription by email and that I had to come back in person. This makes little sense when a patient is traveling and the delay in receiving the lab results was not caused by the patient. Other hospitals handle these situations much more efficiently and do not require unnecessary visits. Based on previous reviews regarding the pharmacy, it appears that patients may be pressured into using the hospital's pharmacy rather than being given reasonable alternatives. What concerns me most is that my condition is getting worse while I wait. The doctor I consulted, Dr. L.A., has not returned my calls or reviewed my lab results with me. I am also unable to book a virtual consultation through the hospital's application. At this point, I am effectively being given only two options: travel back in person or go to another hospital and repeat the tests. If repeating the tests were practical, I would have chosen another hospital from the beginning. Overall, the delays, lack of communication, and absence of reasonable follow-up options have been extremely frustrating and disappointing."

"I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Lama and Nurse Asha for their exceptional care and professionalism. A special thank you to Dr. Lami, who was wonderful with my daughter. She was kind, patient, and attentive, and she took the time to explain everything clearly. Her gentle approach and genuine care made us feel comfortable and reassured throughout the visit. I would also like to thank Nurse Asha for her kindness, patience, and excellent support. She was very caring and friendly with my daughter, helping her feel calm and comfortable. Thank you both for your outstanding dedication and excellent care. We truly appreciate your hard work and highly recommend your clinic. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"

"Review for the Oncology Team Completing my chemotherapy marks a deeply emotional milestone and a testimony to God's faithfulness. I am incredibly grateful to the entire oncology team who walked this journey with me. From the very first day, I felt surrounded by compassion, competence, and genuine care. Every nurse, doctor, and support staff member treated me with kindness — not just as a patient, but as a person navigating one of life’s toughest seasons. Your patience, gentle explanations, warm smiles, and hugs made each session lighter. You created a safe space where courage became easier and hope felt real. I will remember your grace, professionalism, dedication, and the tenderness you bring to such a demanding field. You didn’t just provide treatment; you offered comfort, strength, and humanity. Notably, Dr Thanda, thank you for treating with warmth and dignity, Mr Mohammed Ameen, my infusion team( Sariga Sebastian, you are a sister now, Athina, Divya, Shikas),Tency, Haritha, Aldesene and pham Muhammad. I am leaving this phase stronger, encouraged, and deeply thankful. May God bless the work of your hands as you continue to touch lives with the same excellence and compassion you showed me. With gratitude, Margaret Akpan"

"Frankly speaking, this has been one of the best healthcare experiences I have ever had. Samera was incredibly patient, dedicated, and professional — her hospitality was truly phenomenal. Ms. May Mustafa was always smiling and radiating positivity; her energy genuinely helped me feel calm and reassured before my surgery. My deepest appreciation goes to Dr. Gamal Ibrahim, Consultant General Surgery. My surgery went smoothly, and his professionalism was outstanding he’s the master of HTD surgery in United Arab Emirates . I was able to recover just three hours after the procedure. Without a doubt, he is one of the best doctors in the United Arab Emirates, and I feel very fortunate to have been under his care. I would also like to thank his assistant, Ms. Amal, who coordinated my Daman insurance approval with great efficiency. In the recovery room, Sister Bitcey was kind, attentive, and supportive, helping me with every request. In Day Care, Sister Sony and Sister Jaccy responded to my needs immediately and made sure I was comfortable at all times. I was genuinely amazed by the exceptional service across the entire Burjeel Health facility in Abu Dhabi — from the lab to anesthesia to day care. I highly recommend Burjeel to anyone seeking high-quality healthcare. Before considering any other facility, book your appointment at Burjeel. My experience has been nothing short of outstanding. I would recommend all patients for Hemorrhoids case to review this website https://www.dribrahimgamal.com/en/#summeryArea Your presence makes a real difference Dr. Ibrahimgamal thank you from the heart 🫶❤️ Honestly speaking, I’m speechless!"

"We recently visited Burjeel Hospital, and our experience was made exceptionally smooth thanks to the receptionist, Samira. From the moment we arrived, she greeted us with genuine warmth and professionalism. She was incredibly patient, answered all our questions clearly, and guided us through every step without hesitation. What truly stood out was her ability to make everything feel effortless—she managed the paperwork quickly, reassured us when we were unsure, and ensured we were comfortable throughout the process. Her kindness and dedication left a lasting impression, and it’s clear that she takes great pride in helping every visitor feel cared for. Burjeel Hospital is fortunate to have someone like Samira at the front desk. Her exceptional service made our visit truly outstanding."
