Dr Babar Bashir CHAUDHRI performed multi valve repair (mitral and tricuspid), valve sparing root replacement and CABG on me. His care was absolutely superb. His interactions with me and my family were excellent, everything we asked was carefully explained. I recovered very quickly after the surgery. I can recommend him without reservation. He is a superb surgeon.

Dr. Babar Bashir is one of the most knowledgeable and experienced doctors we have ever encountered. He is an exceptionally skilled cardiologist in Dubai, known for his dedication and willingness to go the extra mile to understand and address his patients concerns. Our experience with him has been outstanding. Dr. Babar successfully treated multiple heart-related issues for my wife, starting with the complex closure of a sinus venosus atrial septal defect and a mitral valve repair through an intense open-heart surgery. Although it was a traumatic time for our family, Dr. Babar’s clear communication and unwavering commitment to providing excellent care put us at ease. His patient-first approach was evident in how quickly my wife recovered, despite the complexity of her treatment, which he managed seamlessly at Clemenceau Medical Center in Dubai. Thank you, Dr. Babar, for your exceptional work and dedication. Many blessings to you!
