Dr. Muhammad Eyad Ba’Ath is a Consultant Pediatric Surgeon and Urologist. Dr. Ba’Ath has over two decades of experience delivering pediatric surgical care, including minimally invasive surgical procedures, and pediatric urological disorders.
Originally from Syria, he travelled to the UK and started training in pediatric surgery and urology. During that time, he did a research degree that focused on “scarless healing” in the airway of the mouse fetus. This work was culminated by the award of a master’s degree in child health by the University of Liverpool.
Towards the end of his training in pediatric surgery in the UK, Dr Ba’Ath secured a fellowship position for training in pediatric surgery in the US. He counted his US time towards his UK training. It is almost as if he went through both UK and US training simultaneously. Moreover, in his continuous quest for new challenges, Dr Ba’Ath took numerous fellowships in his main specialty and specialties allied to it. Dr Ba’Ath holds British, American, and European qualifications in pediatric surgery, pediatric urology and pediatric medicine.
Dr Ba’Ath was then appointed as a consultant at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, Liverpool, UK. Around that time, he was making plans for full time involvement in humanitarian work. He resigned from his position and went back to his home country and spent the next few years immersed in humanitarian practice. In 2018, he was appointed as a consultant in the Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital. However, toward the end of 2018, he started working at Aljalila Specialty Children’s Hospital, Dubai, UAE. He then moved to American Hospital Dubai in 2020. In 2023, he joined the team at Danat Al Emarat Hospital.
Dr Ba’Ath multicultural background and diverse international experience enables him to provide holistic care for children from diverse communities, like the ones that exist in the UAE. He can accommodate different patients’ needs. Whether it is the VIP experience demanded by some families, or the compassionate, optimistic approach required by a child affected by a serious illness, or what every patient want and deserve: world class clinical service with access to latest treatments and developments. This includes, but not limited to, doing surgeries using minimally invasive techniques whenever possible, and “scarless” surgery techniques.
Dr Ba’Ath will go to great lengths to ensure that you get high quality care. Naturally, he has a duty to provide the best to his patients, but he also gets great personal satisfaction from your own happiness with the services he provides. He likes to maintain open channels of communication with his patients, and to that end, he will share his own personal number with them. This is highly valued and appreciated by patients and their families.
Moreover, Dr Ba’Ath likes to maintain complete transparency of the care he provides. He uses specific hardware to video record all surgeries. The way this is recorded is equivalent to looking through his eyes. This is the ultimate form of transparency. This reflects a degree of confidence in the care he provides.
