Şəfa MDM | Müalicəvi Diaqnostika Mərkəzi: more details about the clinic

Azerbaijan, Baku

Şəfa MDM is a multi-specialty diagnostic center in Baku's Yasamal district. Established in 1996, the facility focuses on laboratory diagnostics and specialist consultations. It serves patients seeking detailed medical assessments across multiple disciplines.

Advanced Genetics and Laboratory Diagnostics

The center runs a specialized genetics laboratory offering complex DNA-based testing. These services support prenatal diagnostics and biological kinship identification. The laboratory achieves 99.99% accuracy for DNA results, so patients and families can rely on the findings.

Specialists use several advanced molecular and cytogenetic methods:

  • NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) for genomic analysis
  • Array CGH using blood, amniotic fluid, or tissue samples
  • Sanger Sequencing for targeted genetic investigations
  • FISH (Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization) to identify chromosomal abnormalities
  • HLA typing to determine tissue compatibility

For prenatal care, the clinic offers non-invasive testing using maternal blood to determine fetal gender. It also provides NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) to screen for chromosomal conditions during pregnancy. Patients undergoing fertility treatments can access sensitivity testing for IVF medications.

Specialized Medical Care and Diagnostics

The gastroenterology department is led by Dr. Zohrab Shamkhalov, a specialist in hepatology and digestive diseases. The center provides modern diagnostics for the esophagus, stomach, and liver, including viral hepatitis monitoring. Specialists perform endoscopic examinations such as gastroscopy and colonoscopy with biopsy.

In neurology, Dr. Khanlar Hasanov manages nervous system disorders and spine-related pain. Consultations include assessments for memory loss, attention deficits, and chronic stress. Diagnostic support includes targeted examinations and inflammation markers like calprotectin.

The radiology department offers various imaging services:

  • Gynecological and breast ultrasound
  • Uro-andrological and abdominal imaging
  • Thyroid and lymph node ultrasound
  • Color Doppler sonography for blood flow assessment

Beyond diagnostics, the center provides physical rehabilitation and urological care. Treatment plans may involve ShockWave Therapy for musculoskeletal issues or chronic prostatitis. The center also uses HIFEM (High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) technology and diode lasers.

Advanced Blood Treatments

Şəfa MDM offers blood purification and ozone therapy sessions. These procedures support the immune system and treat chronic inflammatory conditions. Experienced medical staff deliver treatments in a controlled clinical setting.

Specialized apheresis and ozone procedures include:

  • Membrane plasmapheresis for plasma separation
  • Centrifugation-based plasmapheresis
  • Infusions of ozonated saline solution
  • Uterine ozone irrigation for gynecological indications

These sessions are coordinated with medical consultations to ensure appropriate patient selection. The clinic provides protein and immune correction as part of these therapy cycles.

Services for International Patients

Bilingual staff support international and Russian-speaking patients. Coordinators and specialists offer consultations in Azerbaijani and Russian. This ensures clear communication about diagnostic results and complex genetic reports.

For those unable to visit during standard hours, the center runs a mobile laboratory service. Medical staff perform home visits for sample collection on Sundays. This allows patients to receive testing without traveling to the Baku facility.

May God never let anyone end up there. We went to a female cardiologist, the patient explained their problem, but it turned out the issue had nothing to do with cardiology and should have been handled by a different specialist. The doctor realized this but still took advantage of the patient’s trust, ordering a bunch of irrelevant tests and making the patient spend 500 manats for nothing. Then she prescribed unnecessary medications, which ended up harming the patient instead of helping. As for the blood test, they charged 220 manats for a “general blood test,” even though there was no need for it at all. Long story short, stay away from this clinic. Their only goal is to squeeze as much money out of you as possible.

I had a bad experience during usm with doctor H.Peri She was late for an hour and was with terrible attitude. Doctors should be with more emotional towards the patients and sick people!

The doctor who comes to the office at 10:30 instead of 9:30 has 7 patients waiting at the door. The rude doctor who slams the door shut when a person expresses dissatisfaction. Don't trust your time and health!

Even 1 star is too much. Everyone is disrespectful. They make you wait too long and give incredibly expensive, ridiculous prices.

It's the most disciplined place I've ever seen in my life. Although I made an appointment at 6 am, I was already there at 5 am. The doctor and his assistant saw me last at 8 o'clock. Everyone in the clinic had already left, even the technicians. A fee must also be paid to be able to enter at the time of the appointment. It was the first time in my life that I had seen such an unproductive enterprise. This is the most undisciplined place I have ever seen. It was already at 5 o'clock, although the meeting was scheduled for 6 o'clock. The last time the doctor and his assistant saw me already at 8 o'clock. In the clinic, everything is ready, even the technical staff. I had to pay to be able to log in while they were recording. For the first time in my life, I saw such an unproductive enterprise, a waste of time and money. It is the most undisciplined place I have ever seen.

It was the first time in my life that I saw such an unproductive enterprise, a waste of my time and money.
