Yes. All Borzooyeh physicians are fully licensed by the Iranian Medical Council to practice their specialty in Iran. In addition, many are Board Certified in their specialty in the Europe. Borzooyeh’s credentialing process requires a formal review of each doctor’s qualifications and track record by the Credentials and Bylaws Committee and the Hospital’s Medical Executive Committee. These reviews take place before a doctor is appointed to the medical staff by the Hospital’s Board of Governors and then again every three years thereafter.
A summary of each physician’s qualifications is available when you search for a doctor on this website. If you would like to review the qualifications or specific experience of your physician in more detail when you arrive we can arrange for you to do so.

Nurses, pharmacists, imaging and lab technicians must undergo schooling and pass certification exams to obtain licenses to practice in Iran. Nurses are re-certified at 5-year intervals. Those with special responsibilities must receive special training and be certified as competent in those areas. Borzooyeh nurses also receive special English language training and ongoing continuing education covering a wide range of patient safety issues.

All of our practicing physicians are Iranian. In Iran doctors must pass an examination in the Iranian language to be licensed for clinical practice, so there are few foreigners practicing medicine.

Borzooyeh uses software currently updated four times a year with an international drug database (First DataBank), to check for potentially harmful drug interactions.

English is widely spoken around the hospital. You will be able to communicate in English with Borzooyeh doctors, medical and customer service staff.

When considering any overseas treatment it is important to understand that any legal disputes (either medical care or commercial) concerning your care will be decided in the country of treatment, not your country of origin or citizenship.
