Growth, immunity, childhood illnesses and the reassurance parents come in looking for.
A fever in a three-year-old is a different problem from a fever in a thirty-year-old — different causes, different thresholds, different reasons to worry. Pediatrics exists because that difference matters, and because a child cannot always tell you where it hurts.
Our pediatric consultations are as much for the parent as the child. You should leave knowing what is happening, what to watch for tonight, and exactly when to come back.
This list is not exhaustive. If your concern is not here, the front desk can still book you in.
Assessment appropriate to your child’s age, with the examination done at their pace.
Checks against expected milestones, with a plan when something is not on track.
Fevers, infections and the sudden illnesses that bring parents in at short notice.
X-ray and ultrasound available on site when a child’s assessment calls for it.
Nutrition, sleep, immunity and the everyday questions parents want a straight answer to.
A recheck to confirm your child is recovering as expected.
Availability of individual services is confirmed at the time of booking.
Consultations in this department are arranged through the front desk, who will confirm the available doctor and time when you book.
Call +971 4 294 0786Age-appropriate thresholds and examination — not an adult consultation scaled down.
You are told what to watch for at home and precisely when to bring them back.
Children rarely get ill at convenient times. Consultations run until 11:00 PM, every day.
If imaging or another specialty is needed, it is down the corridor rather than across the city.
History, examination and the questions that narrow it down.
Tests or imaging only where they will change the plan.
Options explained with what each involves and how long it takes.
Treatment appropriate to the diagnosis, explained clearly.
A scheduled recheck so nothing is left to assumption.
Pediatrics covers infancy through adolescence. For anything age-specific — growth, development, feeding, childhood illness — start with pediatrics.
It depends on age, how high, how long, and how your child is behaving. Call the front desk on +971 4 294 0786 and describe it — they will tell you whether to come in now or in the morning. If your child is seriously unwell, do not wait for us: call 998.
Yes, and it is worth doing. Routine checks pick up growth and development concerns early, when they are easiest to address.
Your child’s Emirates ID or passport, your insurance card, their vaccination record if you have it, and any medication they are currently taking.
We keep the examination unhurried and explain each step. You stay in the room throughout — that is standard, not an exception.
Open daily, 8:30 AM – 11:00 PM.
Book a consultation, or message the front desk if you want to check insurance first.
