All, My father in law is very I'll and has been seen by many doctors who have yet to make a definitive diagnosis. He has had a persistent cough for 6 months, lost more than 25 pounds and has a decreases appetite. If someone can please give me the names of liable, credible doctors in Alexandria or even Cairo l, it would be greatly appreciated. If you wouldn't mind telling me about your knowledge or experience, that would be helpful also. I'm particularly interested in doctors who specialize in cancer, heart and lungs.
Thanks in advane

Nelle, so sorry to hear about your father in law.
My husband has been seeing a cardiologist who I love dearly. He is totally trustworthy, sensitive, caring man, and above all he KNOWS what he is doing. He can recommend other specialists if they are needed. He is affliated with the Loran Hospital in Alex. His name is Dr. Mansour and his mobile number is 0167444964.
If he doesn't answer, he may be with patients but he WILL call you back.
Good Luck and Best Wishes!
Just to add, Loran Hospital is fairly new, completely state of the art equipment and full services for all needs. Excellent staff and top notch IC unit.
Loran Hospital 03 5834241 located on Sharawy St.

It's in Loran. On the Corniche, heading towards Montazah, just pass San Stefano, there is a Cookie Man and Hardees next to each other. That is Sharawy St. Go up that street, pass the tram and about 8 blocks, on the left you will see Loran Hospital.

You are most welcome nelle, hope that it turns out to be nothing serious and easily treated, and your father in law starts to feel better soon.

and nelle, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE...no matter what, do NOT take him or let anyone talk you into taking him to ICC (International Cardiac Center in Smouha)or be seen by a cardiologist by the name of Dr. Ali Zidan! I won't go into details but he/they nearly killed my husband there from gross negligence!!
