uterine fibroid surgery
Did the laproscopic surgery for uterine fibroids and Dr. Alphy had handled the surgery very nicely. The confidence what Dr provided led me to the surgery table without much concerns. The pre and post operative procedures were handled by Dr as if it was a cakewalk. Dr. Alphy would be by go to person on any obstetrics and gynecology queries as she is very friendly and approachable. Thank you Dr.

Laparoscopic Hysterectomy for Mom
Successful laparoscopic hysterectomy for my mom. My mom had problems with her uterus which required surgery. As my mom had some risk factors, we were quite worried about her surgery .We heard about Dr Alphy from one of our friends and she highly recommended to meet her .Dr Alphy was very friendly and approachable at any time.She explained everything about the surgery and patiently answered all our queries.My mom had a smooth surgery with very minimal scars and she was back home the next day of surgery. She would respond to our calls and messages when ever we had queries even after we were back home with my mom. With my personal experience i would say Dr Alphy is one of the best Laparoscopic surgeons in Dubai. Thank you Dr Alphy for taking care of my mom .

I am sherin from cochin... Today we celebrated my sons 8th birthday. I am so happy and greatful to almighty and my dear doctor for having made this possible. I was a dabetic Patient at the time of concieving my second baby. I consulted 2-3 famous doctors but they all suggested abortion. Atlast i consulted dr. Alphy. She is a very warm and concerned personlity. She made me feel very comfortable. My pregnancy was too risky because i had three large fibroids. She did a successful caesarean. I appreciate her expertism in myomectomy. I would like to thank her for her sincerity and understanding. I belive that she was an angel sent by god to save my baby. May god bless her.

Dr.Alphy S. Puthiyidom (Dr. Alphy) was one of the best doctors, inside and outside of America, that I have had the pleasure of meeting and experiencing. Her nurse assistant was a direct reflection of her. They both were so pleasant and forth-coming with answers to my questions and anything else that I forgot. Even when Dr. Alphy was not smiling (which was rare), she looked pleasant and approachable. She was well informed on the various procedures that I could have chosen and she did not force-feed me any one particular procedure. After hearing the pros and cons, It was my choice. SHORT NOTE: I went to another hospital and doctor before IMH and Dr. Alphy. She gave me one choice. She was so doom-and-gloom with a pleasant smile on her face the whole time. I could not wait to get out of there. I took my husband to meet Dr. Alphy because I did not want my choice to be biased because of the other doctor. My husband loved her. He kept mentioning how pleasant she was and how, based on the number of procedures that she performed pertaining to my procedure, she would be a good choice. After my procedure, she came to visit multiple times to make sure everything was fine with me. I know that is a doctor's job to follow up with their patient(s) after a procedure but Dr. Alphy did not seem to mind. It did not appear like it was, just, protocol to come check on her patient. She cared whether I felt okay. I am almost eight weeks post-op. I feel great! I sent Dr. Alphy a message a few days ago to thank her....again and she responded back with gratitude. She did not have to do that but she did. That shows great character. Honorable mention: The nurses who watched over me and took care of me (even when they had to wake me up during the night for whatever reason) after my procedure were GREAT! Not just one of them, all of them were GREAT! Look Dr. Alphy up. Read her bio. I would definitely go back to her! Hopefully, no time soon. :-) - by Porchia Dallas
