My name is Noah. I am 42 years old. I lost my left eye in an accident, and a year ago, I woke up unable to see anything with my right eye. After visiting the doctor, I was told I had bleeding in my eye due to diabetes. Despite waiting as advised, my condition did not improve. I decided to go to Saudi Arabia, but my condition worsened, with an infection in my left eye. I was then referred to Dr. Medhave Rao, who was shocked by the severity of my case. He told me there was a chance I might not see again, but he encouraged me to fight. Dr. Rao treated me with great care, often going beyond expectations. Thanks to his efforts, I now have 65% of my vision back. I am grateful to Dr. Rao for his amazing care and for giving me hope and a new lease on life

I am a resident of Abu dhabi since 30 years! I have been going to Dr. Madhav Rao since 2006 when there was no vitero retinal surgeon in Auh! But on meeting him, there was no looking back! He is the very Best! He will always give the right advice! When a patient is being treated by Dr. Rao, its best to leave everything to him as he takes the utmost care! Al Abeer is one of the finest clinics! The whole team and staff is very kind n polite and skilled! They also have physicians, gp ortho and gynacs! As for the eye problems, Dr. Rao is always there!

I had the opportunity to meet Dr. Madhav Rao at Al Abeer Center Day Surgery Unit in Abu Dhabi for the treatment of my macular edema. I have known Dr. Rao since 2016 when he served as the Group Head of the Ophthalmology Department at Burjeel Hospital, Al Najda Street. He is a highly respected expert in ophthalmology in the UAE, with vast experience in managing complex cases. Now, Dr. Madhav Rao has moved on from Burjeel Hospital and partnered with Al Abeer. I take this opportunity to congratulate him on his new endeavor and firmly believe that many will benefit from his expertise, just as I have over the past nine years in preserving my vision from diabetes-related complications. If you are facing any eye-related issues, no matter how minor or complex, you can trust that Dr. Rao will provide the highest level of care and the best possible treatment solutions. Thank you, sir, for joining Al Abeer, giving us continued access to your expert care and guidance.
