Our family favorite. An absolutely sweet

Our family favorite. A caring , humble, patient, empathetic doctor who is always ready to listen to you. I have never been so comfortable with any doctor but you. Thank you for always being there for me through out my MS journey. I wouldnt want to be with any other doctor apart from you. Thank you again.

Peripheral nerves problems

I was having misdiagnosis and I saw many doctors, leading to my medical condition to get worse. Luckily I managed to find Dr Fatmah Al Zahmi thanks to Dr Debora (neurosurgeon Doctor, also from Mediclinic Parkview) and she started treating me and guide me on the right track. I was having problem with the peripheral nerves affecting other parts of my body, and my inmune system was fighting my own body. Therefore, Dr Fatmah started treating my symptoms and to find the cause of my condition with the help of a rheumatologist, working together to find the right treatment (IVIG and Rituximab). Thanks to her I managed to get better and get my weight back after loosing 10 kilos and all my muscles and strength. She is very knowledgeable and very professional. I recommend seeing Dr Fatmah if anyone is having any similar medical condition and dont know who to go. She is the best doctor specialist in the nerve system.

Best Neurologist in UAE

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care I received from Dr. Fatmah Al Zahmi, the best neurologist I have ever met in the UAE. Having visited eight neurologists while struggling with a rare and hard-to-diagnose neuromuscular disease called ALS, I was fortunate to find Dr. Fatmah.From the moment I met her, Dr. Fatmah displayed an unparalleled level of expertise. She quickly recommended a genetic test, eliminating all suspicions and confirming my diagnosis. What sets her apart is her profound understanding of all the genes associated with ALS, making her the only doctor I encountered who possessed such comprehensive knowledge.What truly amazed me was Dr. Fatmahs dedication to staying up-to-date with the latest advancements in the field. Upon confirming my ALS diagnosis, she seamlessly enrolled me in an expanded access program for Tofersen, a groundbreaking treatment recently granted conditional approval. Her swift action and profound awareness of emerging treatments provided me with a renewed sense of hope.But Dr. Fatmah is more than just a doctor to me; she is a sister in every sense of the word. Her unwavering support and boundless compassion have made my journey with ALS more bearable. She not only treats the disease but also cares for the person, creating a sense of trust and comfort that is invaluable to patients like me.I am incredibly fortunate to have Dr. Fatmah Al Zahmi as my neurologist and sister in this challenging journey.

ALS-International patient

I am from Iran, and in 2021, I received the devastating diagnosis of ALS. I quickly sought out information and explored the possibility of medication or care that could help me regain my health. In 2022, genetic testing revealed the presence of the SOD1 mutation. My neurologist in Iran informed me that the available medication for this specific gene mutation (SOD1) that could potentially help me was Tofersen. Unfortunately, due to some reasons, I encountered significant obstacles in accessing the Tofersen medication in Iran; however, my situation took a positive turn when I learned about Dr. Fatmah Alzahmi at MEDICLINIC Hospital in Dubai. She had recently initiated treatment with Tofersen, a medication specifically designed for ALS patients, on one of her patients. This was the treatment I desperately needed. I decided to reach out to her via email, and to my surprise, she responded promptly and provided me with valuable assistance and information. I scheduled an appointment with her for an in-person examination and a discussion of my health issues. Within a day, she obtained approval for me to access the early access program for Tofersen. She expertly guided me through the entire process, making me feel comfortable and explaining every detail to both me and my family. She diligently followed up on every aspect of the difficulties I faced as an international patient, making everything much more manageable. There are no words to express my gratitude to her.

Honest, caring and knowlegable human being who has a calming and focussed approach. I had an emergency Lumbar Puncture performed by Dr Fatmah, and she took time to explain the procedure fully despite the urgency. A true professional who treated me - and my symptoms. Great people person, great attitude to patients and to overall health.Thank you Dr
