Behind Closed Doors: Physician Stories From Liberty, Arabian Ranches

Among the physicians of Liberty, Arabian Ranches, Dubai, there exists an unofficial archive—a collection of stories shared in hushed tones at medical conferences, over late-night coffee in hospital break rooms, and in the private journals that some doctors keep alongside their clinical notes. These are stories of divine intervention: moments when the hand of God, or Providence, or some force beyond human comprehension, appeared to enter the clinical equation and alter the outcome. Dr. Scott Kolbaba's "Physicians' Untold Stories" brings this unofficial archive into public view. The accounts are remarkable for their specificity and for the credibility of their sources—physicians who have nothing to gain and professional reputation to lose by sharing what they witnessed. For readers in Liberty, Arabian Ranches, these stories offer a rare glimpse into the spiritual dimension of medical practice.
