About Al Haitham Al Shetawi
Professional Statement
Get To Know Me
I offer skill, knowledge and expertise. I provide patients with all of them to manage their serious conditions.
What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
I value trust and personal care. I support my patients from the moment I meet them until the last follow up visit.
How do you spend your personal time when you're not caring for patients?
I enjoy playing with my young daughters.
Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
The combination of practical and intellectual skills to treat face, head and neck conditions made me choose this specialty. The greatest reward is the outcome I see on my patients' faces.
