Like many people, I don't enjoy the dentist. For many years I avoided visits out of fear. I found Manhal 15 years ago, and he is a wonderful dentist. Calming presence. Excellent implantology as well as other dental work. I have recommended him personally to many friends, and will continue to do so. I just hope he doesn't ever retire. When I have been overseas with dental problems, I have flown back to Dubai specifically to see him. Could not imagine ever going to another dentist.

Easy to locate. Excellent service. My husband and I went for dental checkups with Dr Manhal. He was very knowledgeable and professional. The waiting area near the reception could have had more decoration and nicer furniture. The staff were cheerful and friendly.
