Dr Wafaa was consulting my three kids for 7 years . She always clarify the medical conditions and knows very well how to identify the signs of sickness and treat us very well. I tried others doctors but I couldn’t find like her because of her experience and commitment to work. She always double check on her patients even after the completion of the treatment. And the most important thing is that my kids feel comfortable with her and ask about her. I like the way when she explains to me what my kids are suffering from . She is our first choice and number one between all other pediatricians.
