Patient reviews

Kind words from my patients

Patient rating 4.9 from 1,200+ patient reviews
Patient since 2021

Dr. Karim was the first doctor who actually explained my blood pressure to me. One tablet, a home monitor and simple food changes — my readings have been normal for a year.

Rahima K.Treated for high blood pressure · Dhanmondi
Back to work in 8 weeks

After my heart attack I was frightened of everything. She planned my recovery week by week and always had time for my questions. I feel stronger than before.

Mahbub A.Treated for heart attack recovery · Uttara
Seen the same day

I called in the morning and was seen the same evening. All the tests were done in one visit and she explained every result. Such a relief.

Shirin S.Treated for chest pain · Mirpur
Patient since 2019

My father’s heart failure is finally under control. The nurses call to check on him, and the doctor adjusts his medicines with great care.

Arif H.Treated for heart failure · Gulshan
Video follow-ups

The video follow-ups save me a long journey to Dhaka. The Holter test found the cause of my palpitations and the treatment works well.

Nadia R.Treated for palpitations · Chattogram (video)
Check-up in one morning

Very well organised — every test done in one morning and the report explained before I left. I now know exactly what to work on.

Kamal U.Treated for an executive check-up · Bashundhara

FAQ

Before your visit

Have a question that is not answered here? Call my chamber or send a message — my team replies the same day.

Ask a question +880 1234-567890
01Do I need a referral to see you?

No. You can book directly. If another doctor referred you, please bring their letter and your reports.

02What should I bring to my first visit?

Your previous prescriptions, any ECG, echo or blood test reports, discharge papers and the medicines you take (or their packets). Home blood pressure readings help too.

03How long does a consultation take?

A first consultation takes about 30 minutes, follow-ups about 20 minutes. If you need an ECG, add ten minutes.

04Can I get tests done on the same day?

Yes. ECG, echocardiogram and blood sample collection are available at the Dhanmondi chamber, so most patients get their results during the same visit.

05Do you see patients online?

Yes — every Thursday morning by secure video. It is ideal for follow-ups and report reviews. New chest pain needs an in-person visit.

06What should I do in an emergency?

Do not wait for an appointment. For severe chest pain, sudden breathlessness or fainting, call 999 or go to the nearest emergency department straight away.
