Veena has been amazing during the entire process. She helped and supported me through the journey to obtain the license. Very professional .Posted on Rajiv I have know DrExpat for some time now. From the start I’ve had a very positive response which was tactful, to the point, positive yet balanced. I was given correct advise regarding the licensing exams, career boost, life in general across the continent and what to expect after relocation. Veena and her team are absolutely spot on with all actions and their mentor Kaneez I would say is the most efficient, astute and very experienced leader. I’ve spoken to Kaneez several times now and believe on what she advised is spot on. My best wishes to the entire team and hope something very exciting happens in due course of time.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
