Our Patients’ Reviews

Alhamdulillah, Lord of the Worlds. I am sincerely speaking from my personal experience with Dr. Samer and Dr. Shatha.

I visited their clinic after enduring severe pain. I had seen multiple doctors before and was prescribed dozens of medications, but I didn’t feel any improvement. However, all praise and thanks be to Allah — after my consultation with Dr. Samer and the clinical examination, he prescribed me medication, and Alhamdulillah, the diagnosis turned out to be more important than the treatment itself. The condition was diagnosed as a herniated disc and sciatica, and the appropriate treatment was given.

Honestly, the kindness and humanity I experienced from the doctor and the clinic are more than enough.

All my thanks and appreciation to Dr. Samer and Dr. Shatha.
This is a truthful testimony before Allah.

My sincere thanks and gratitude to Dr. Samer’s clinic for the high level of professionalism and care that I experienced during my first visit.

By the grace of God, and thanks to the highly skilled and dedicated medical team, I noticed a significant improvement from the very first week. Their commitment to the patient’s comfort and to achieving the best possible results was clear — especially through the follow-up care provided by Dr. Shatha.

Blank

Peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you.

Honestly and sincerely, I have never dealt with, nor do I prefer, anyone faster or more skilled than such doctors. I also thank those responsible for the medical center, especially Dr. Samer Abdulaziz and Dr. Shatha Al-Tamimi, for what they provide to the country and its citizens, particularly their responses to patients’ inquiries, consultations, and providing necessary treatment remotely.

My rating is not just five stars — it’s seven stars honestly, they truly deserve it.
I wish them continuous success always.

Masha’Allah, tabarak Allah — a truly wonderful and kind doctor who answers patients’ questions with honesty.

All respect to Dr. Samer Abdulaziz, and special thanks to Dr. Shatha for the medical guidance you provided to my wife, who has been suffering from pain in her spine and surrounding areas.

Dr. Samer is an outstanding and accomplished figure, Masha’Allah, with vast experience. Wishing you all the best, our doctor.

May Allah reward Dr. Samer with the best in this life and the Hereafter. He reminded me of the good old days of medicine in Jordan, when a doctor’s primary concern was treating the patient — not taking all of their life savings before even beginning treatment.
Masha’Allah, Dr. Samer, your manners, ethics, and kind treatment are admirable. May Allah place it all in the scale of your good deeds.

May Allah bless him.
An excellent doctor by all standards — in knowledge, character, extensive experience, and use of modern techniques.
