I am writing this review on behalf of my mother. My mother presented to Dr. Sharma with conjunctivitis in one eye. He scolded my mother rudely for not presenting earlier and using a gentamicin eye drop. He was incredibly rude and condescending throughout the consultation. He then exaggerated the severity of the conjunctivitis by saying its very severe and that it required surgery which he wanted 5000 dhms for. Thankfully, we decided to get 3 other expert opinions from other ophthalmologists in Dubai Hospital and one other medical centre who all said that this was a viral conjunctivitis which just required steroid drops and time. No surgery was required and it would most likely do more harm than good. My mother is now completely healthy and we are incredibly grateful that she did not require surgery. I am unsure whether Dr. Sharma is just not a very skilled/experienced ophthalmologist or whether he was trying to get extra money for an unnecessary surgery from us. But this is not an excuse for his rude and unprofessional behavior.
