  • British-Trained Consultant Pediatrician

    British-trained consultant pediatrician in Dubai providing evidence-based care for infants, children, and adolescents, including diagnosis and management of common childhood illnesses, asthma, allergies, developmental concerns, and preventive pediatric healthcare.

    General Pediatric Care

    General pediatrics focuses on the health and development of children from infancy through adolescence. Care includes diagnosis and treatment of childhood illnesses, monitoring growth and development, and supporting families with preventive healthcare and medical guidance.

    I see children with a wide range of concerns, including infections, asthma, allergies, headaches, abdominal pain, developmental concerns, and school-related difficulties.

    Clinical Approach

    My training and consultant experience within the UK National Health Service (NHS) shaped a practice based on:

    • careful clinical assessment

    • evidence-based decision making

    • ethical medical practice

    • patient safety

    Whenever possible, diagnosis is based on history and examination rather than routine investigations.

    Investigations and Tests

    Many childhood illnesses can be assessed clinically without immediate testing.

    Blood tests, imaging, or specialist investigations are recommended only when they are medically necessary and likely to change management.

    Responsible Prescribing

    Medication is prescribed carefully and only when appropriate.

    • antibiotics are used only when clinically indicated

    • treatment plans are tailored to the child

    • parents receive clear explanations of benefits and risks

    This approach helps avoid unnecessary medication exposure and side effects.

    Guidance for Parents

    Consultations focus not only on treatment but also on helping parents understand their child’s health and development.

    Clear explanations and practical advice are provided so families can make informed decisions and recognise when further medical assessment may be needed.

    When Should a Child See a Pediatrician?

    Parents may seek pediatric advice if a child has:

    • persistent or recurrent fever

    • breathing difficulties or wheezing

    • recurrent infections

    • concerns about growth or development

    • unexplained headaches or neurological symptoms

    • persistent abdominal pain

    • behavioural or school concerns

    Pediatric Consultations in Dubai

    I provide general pediatric consultations in Dubai for newborns, infants, children, and adolescents, with an emphasis on careful diagnosis, evidence-based treatment, and thoughtful long-term care.

  • Headaches are common in children and adolescents, but frequent or severe headaches can significantly affect a child’s wellbeing, school performance, and daily activities. For parents, it can be worrying when headaches persist or when the cause is unclear.

    As a UK-trained pediatrician practicing in Dubai, I provide a detailed assessment to identify the specific type and cause of headaches. Children may experience migraines, tension-type headaches, or other primary headache disorders, while some headaches may indicate an underlying condition that requires further investigation.

    A careful history and neurological examination are essential to determine the correct diagnosis. My approach focuses on understanding the subtype of headache so that treatment can be tailored to each child.

    I work closely with families and young people, offering clear explanations and treatment choices. Management may include a combination of medication and non-medication strategies, such as lifestyle adjustments and trigger management, helping children achieve better control of their headaches and return to normal activities.


  • Epilepsy is a neurological condition that causes recurrent, unpredictable seizures. For parents, witnessing a child have a seizure can be frightening and deeply distressing. Many families are left searching for clear answers, reassurance, and the best treatment options for their child.

    As a UK-trained pediatric epilepsy consultant now practicing in Dubai, I provide expert assessment and personalized care for children with seizures and epilepsy. My approach combines the latest medical evidence, advanced diagnostic techniques, and individualized treatment plans to ensure each child receives the most appropriate care.

    I understand that epilepsy affects not only the child but the entire family. My goal is to support parents with clear explanations, practical guidance, and compassionate care throughout the diagnostic and treatment journey.

    With the right diagnosis and management, many children with epilepsy can lead healthy, active, and fulfilling lives. I work closely with families to control seizures, optimize treatment, and improve quality of life for both the child and their family.


  • Early and accurate assessment is essential when a child shows signs of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Difficulties with attention, learning, social communication, or behaviour can affect school performance and family life, making specialist evaluation important.

    As a UK-trained pediatric neurologist in Dubai, I provide comprehensive autism and ADHD assessments for children and adolescents using internationally recognised diagnostic methods.

    For autism assessments, I am certified in both ADOS-2 (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-2) and the 3Di (Developmental, Dimensional and Diagnostic Interview). These gold-standard tools allow a structured and reliable evaluation of:

    Social communication skills

    Behavioural patterns

    Developmental history

    Cognitive and emotional profile

    A key part of my practice is a two-stage assessment process. The first stage focuses on a detailed developmental history and understanding the child’s daily functioning. The second stage involves structured observation and diagnostic testing.

    Separating these stages helps reduce diagnostic bias and ensures a more accurate diagnosis.

    Beyond diagnosis, the assessment also guides future therapy, educational planning, and behavioural support strategies, giving families a clear and practical pathway for their child’s development.

  • Tics are sudden, repetitive movements or sounds that commonly occur in childhood. While many tics are temporary, some children develop Tourette syndrome or persistent tic disorders, which can affect confidence, school life, and social interactions. Many children with tics also experience associated conditions such as ADHD, anxiety, or obsessive–compulsive symptoms.

    As a UK-trained pediatrician with special interest in neurological conditions,  practicing in Dubai, I provide a thorough assessment to understand the type and severity of tics and identify any associated conditions. My approach combines expertise in behavioral therapies, including evidence-based tic management strategies, alongside pharmacological treatments when needed.

    I work closely with families and young people to develop individualized treatment plans, helping children manage tics and thrive in everyday life.


  • Genomics is the branch of biology that focuses on the study of an organism's entire genetic material, known as its genome. It involves sequencing, analyzing, and interpreting DNA to understand how genes function, interact, and influence traits, diseases, and evolution. Advances in genomics have revolutionized medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology by enabling precision medicine, genetic engineering, and the identification of hereditary disorders. Techniques like next-generation sequencing (NGS) and CRISPR gene editing have accelerated research, allowing scientists to decode genetic variations and their impacts on health and development. As genomics continues to evolve, it holds the potential to transform personalized healthcare, improve disease prevention, and enhance our understanding of life's genetic blueprint.
