WHAT MY PATIENTS SAY
Where do I begin! Dr Barbara has been like a Knight in shining armour to me and my family over the last 15 years. As a very young Mum with new born babies she has supported each one of my family members. She is so special as the one thing that stands out was when my husband was feeling very unwell with diabetes complications and he had been to numerous doctors that had not been able to pinpoint what was wrong with him. We had one consultation and as we were in her surgery she said I am calling for a hospital bed he is very unwell. That day Dr Barbara saved his life. This meant their was no other doctor for us!

Dr. Barbara is incredible. Not only has she taken great care of our health, but also she is lovely to speak with at every appointment. It’s rare to find a doctor that combines such personal touches and care for a patient as a person with extreme professionalism and an outstanding quality of medical care. I always leave feeling so much better in every way. I’ll never use anyone else for me and my family. If you need a great Dr.to help you with your health and wellness do yourself a favor become her patient! We love you Dr. Barbara!

WHAT MY PATIENTS SAY
Dr Barbara is the embodiment of what a true doctor is, empathic, compassionate, understanding and very knowledgeable. I met her the first time, when I was admitted into the emergency room after being misdiagnosed, she was the only one who picked up what was wrong with me and prescribed the proper route of treatment. it’s been years now, but she’s always my go to Doctor whenever I can, though I don’t live in Dubai anymore. She is patient, kind and supportive, a very rare trait in today’s world!

WHAT MY PATIENTS SAY
My family and I have been patients of dr. Barbara Karin Vela for the past 10 years, with the reason. She truly understands not only our health needs but also our personalities in terms of choosing the right treatment, the right words and the right approach. She takes time to go over diagnosis and treatment options clearly. Dr. Barbara not only recommends the appropriate treatment, but also always makes time to follow up with us, asking how do we feel and checking on the progress of the treatment. She does it proactively, with the utmost care and empathy.

WHAT MY PATIENTS SAY
During this time she has looked after myself and my husband in an exemplary way. Sadly my husband passed away 2 years ago from lung cancer. Barbara was instrumental in finding us a competent oncologist and holding our hands whilst we navigated our way during a very traumatic time. Her advice and wisdom during this time helped us both to manage a very difficult situation. Apart from being a very knowledgeable GP , she is the most caring person, and I would have no hesitation in recommending her. I hope she never leaves ! Thankyou Dr Barbara for looking after us.

WHAT MY PATIENTS SAY
An unfortunate set of events had led me to visit hospitals more then anyone should but on this journey, Dr Barbara was always a sort of a Lighthouse. The quality of her advice, her intelligence and the patience she would have to answer all my questions made a huge difference. Not only the care I got was always the right one but honestly, sometimes I just felt better after only talking to her. In my opinion, Doctor Barbara is the gold standard for the Family Medicine Doctor.

Added to this, her ability to recall details is exemplary which is foundational to her holistic approach to patient care. Dr. Barbara is very caring and goes beyond symptoms to treat the cause. Dr. Barbara is well connected and can recommend specialists, as required.
