Zarya Maryam Underwent Physiotherapy and Rehab in American Hospital, Dubai, UAE 

Trigeminal Neuralgia was identified in Kuwaiti resident Zarya Maryam, age 50. In order to receive Physical Therapy (Physiotherapy) for trigeminal neuralgia, she wanted to speak with a reputable neurologist. Through exercise and massage, physical therapy aids in treating the physical aspects of inflammation, stiffness, and soreness. She made the decision to go to the UAE for medical and physical rehabilitation. Ms. Zarya Maryam discovered MediGence while looking for a reliable medical advisor online. She received a call from a Patient Advisory representative from MediGence after placing her inquiry on their website describing the need for a good specialist to discuss her situation. She was asked to provide all of her information and medical records by the case manager.

Ms. Zarya Maryam chose American Hospital, as one of the top medical facilities in Dubai in terms of the caliber of its professionals. Dr. Elkhatib Firas, a renowned neurologist at American Hospital with a wealth of experience, was Ms. Maryam's choice. Her medical specialties include pain, facial spasms, headaches, and movement problems. She is an ambitious medical professional who blends her in-depth understanding of neurology with a sense of responsibility, compassion, and sincere concern for each of her patients.


As soon as Ms. Maryam decided to travel to the UAE, the MediGence team got to work on her visa application. Additionally, MediGence provided her with a few hotel choices, which she chose based on her spending limit.

Pre-Treatment and Procedure

On 7 Feb 2022, Ms. Maryam departed for UAE to receive medical attention. She was greeted by the MediGence Team at the airport, and they handled all of her hotel needs. The patient received access to the best hotel amenities thanks to the case manager's efforts. MediGence brought the patient to the hospital for a meeting with Dr. Elkhatib Firas. The specialist's visit with Ms. Zarya Maryam was planned in advance. She was quickly taken to the hospital. The doctor encouraged her to undergo a few diagnostic procedures to ascertain her current health state after she had undergone all necessary examinations. The most agonizing pain ever experienced by humans is sometimes referred to as trigeminal neuralgia (TN), commonly known as tic douloureux. The lower face and jaw are often the areas of pain, though occasionally the nose and the area above the eye are also affected. The trigeminal nerve, which has branches that travel to the forehead, cheek, and lower jaw, is what is causing this excruciating, stabbing, electric shock-like pain. Typically, it only affects one side of the face. The wind, eating, or even something as simple and normal as brushing your teeth can cause pain. Trigeminal neuralgia can intensify over time if left untreated, even though attacks may start out moderate and short.

Post Treatment

After receiving the required medical care and rehabilitation, Ms. Zarya Maryam went back to Nigeria after spending 2 weeks in the country as a daycare patient. The doctor explained to her all the guidelines and safety measures she should adhere to in order to recover quickly. For Ms. Zarya Maryam to resume living normally, she was told to finish post-treatment care. A close aide helped her recover while she was staying at the hotel. Ms. Maryam gave her experience a perfect rating overall. She conveyed her appreciation to the doctor for her excellent post-procedure care and guidance. Ms. Maryam commended MediGence for overseeing the entire treatment process in a way that allayed their worries about receiving medical care abroad.


The patient is really happy with how the doctor has been caring for her and how the treatment has turned out. She also thanked MediGence for being there for her from the beginning, helping her select the right doctor, schedule consultations, run hospitals, and coordinate airport transportation. Ms. Zarya Maryam believes that MediGence is the greatest choice for any patient seeking care wherever in the world.
