Best oculoplastic Doctor in UAE
Excellent treatment .. Thanks to Dr Uma Shankar, Medclinic Deira, for removing the mole on my lower eyelid .The doctor and the staff was very skilled and professional. The result was better than my expectations . The scar after surgery was barely visible. I would recommend Dr Uma Shankar for eye related surgery and treatment
