How we chose this list

Every matching doctor profile in this area was scored out of 100 for how complete and checkable its published information is, and the highest scores appear here in order. Featured placement does not change a profile's score, and the score does not measure treatment quality or outcomes — it tells you how much you can check before you call.

  • Profile verified by the platform15
  • Approved reviews (number and average)20
  • Published years of experience (up to 25)15
  • Published qualifications10
  • Written professional biography8
  • Profile photo5
  • Published services8
  • Listed insurers7
  • Confirmed opening hours6
  • Published consultation fee3
  • Map location3

Ties are broken by the number of approved reviews, then published years of experience. Confirm the service, branch, appointment, fees and insurance coverage with the practice before visiting.

When do you need this specialty or procedure?

Cardiac catheterization is a procedure in which a thin, flexible tube is guided through a blood vessel, usually at the wrist or groin, so the doctor can look at the arteries that supply the heart. In some cases the same procedure is used to treat a narrowed artery with a small balloon or a stent. A cardiologist decides whether it is needed after reviewing your symptoms and test results. Many people with chest symptoms never need it.

Book a visit with a cardiologist if you have:

  • chest discomfort or tightness during activity that eases with rest
  • breathlessness on climbing stairs or walking short distances that is new or getting worse
  • palpitations, unexplained tiredness or dizziness on exertion
  • an abnormal ECG, echocardiogram or stress test result that needs review
  • a previous stent or heart procedure that needs follow-up

Get emergency help now if you have chest pain or pressure that lasts more than a few minutes or does not settle with rest, pain spreading to the arm, jaw, neck or back, sudden severe breathlessness, fainting, cold sweating or confusion. Call 911 straight away. Do not drive yourself to a clinic.

How to choose among the doctors here

When looking for the best cardiac catheterization specialists in Shmeisani, start with your own need rather than the order on this page. The list is sorted by how complete each profile is, not by clinical quality, so use the details below to compare.

  • Procedure scope. Dr. Ghassan Mohammad Shawabkeh's profile lists diagnostic catheterization, coronary angioplasty and stenting, and radial-access catheterization. Dr. Raed Al Awaisheh's profile lists similar services plus 24- or 48-hour rhythm monitoring. Dr. Hossam Al-Banna's profile lists catheterization and stent consultation, follow-up after catheterization and chronic heart disease treatment.
  • Experience. Dr. Ghassan's profile states 15 years of experience. Ask each doctor directly how much of their work involves cases similar to yours.
  • Languages. The profiles of Dr. Ghassan and Dr. Raed list Arabic and English.
  • Hours. Dr. Ghassan's clinic is open Saturday to Wednesday 11:00 to 17:00 and Thursday 11:00 to 15:00. Dr. Raed's clinic is open Saturday to Thursday 10:00 to 18:00. Dr. Hossam's clinic is open Saturday to Thursday 09:30 to 18:00.
  • Background. Dr. Ghassan's biography describes a focus on complex coronary interventions, chronic occlusions, calcification and left-main and branching lesions. Read each biography and ask what share of the doctor's work is catheterization.

A profile with more published detail is easier to check, but it is not automatically a better doctor. The first conversation with the doctor tells you more than any listing.

What to expect at the first visit

The first visit is usually a consultation. The doctor reviews your history, examines you and looks at any earlier tests. Bring:

  • your ID and insurance card, if you have one
  • any previous ECG, echocardiogram, stress test or catheterization reports, with images if you have them
  • a list of all medicines and supplements you take, including blood thinners, and any allergies
  • a short written note of your symptoms: when they started, what brings them on and what eases them
  • your questions

Useful questions include:

  • Why do you recommend this test now, and what will it show that other tests cannot?
  • Is this procedure only for diagnosis, or could it also treat a narrowing?
  • Where would the procedure be done, and who would be on the team?
  • What preparation do I need, including what to do with my usual medicines? Follow the instructions you are given and do not stop or change medicines on your own.
  • What will recovery involve, and which warning signs should I watch for afterwards?

Dr. Hossam Al-Banna's biography notes that the appropriate procedure facility is arranged after consultation, so ask about this early.

Insurance, fees and booking

Two of the three profiles publish a consultation fee: 25 JOD for Dr. Ghassan Mohammad Shawabkeh and 20 JOD for Dr. Raed Al Awaisheh. These are the only fees on this page, and they apply to the consultation as published. This page does not state prices for tests or procedures, so ask the clinic for a written estimate before any procedure.

The insurers listed on each profile differ. Dr. Ghassan's profile lists companies such as Arab Orient Insurance and OmniCare. Dr. Raed's profile lists OmniCare, Arab Bank and Arab Orient Insurance. Dr. Hossam's profile lists NatHealth, MedVisa and MedNet. A listed insurer is not a guarantee of cover. Before booking, call the clinic and confirm that your specific plan covers the consultation, the tests and any procedure.

Getting there

Each clinic on this page is in Shmeisani, Amman. If you are coming from another district, such as Abdoun, Jubeiha, Sweifieh, Gardens, Khalda, Tla' Al-Ali, 7th Circle or Dabouq, check the clinic address on the profile and allow extra time for traffic. Save the directions before you leave and bring the clinic's opening hours for your visit day.

Hospitals listed for Amman on ClinicsJo include Jordan University Hospital, King Hussein Medical Center, Al-Bashir Hospital, King Hussein Cancer Center, Specialty Hospital and Istishari Hospital. Being on that list does not mean any of these doctors works there. If a procedure is planned, ask which facility will be used and how to get there.

For an emergency, call 911 rather than travelling to a clinic.

Frequently asked questions

How was this list of cardiac catheterization specialists in Shmeisani chosen?
This list is ordered by a published profile-completeness score out of 100. The score counts how much checkable information a profile shows, such as platform verification, reviews, years of experience, qualifications, biography, photo, services, insurers, opening hours, consultation fee and map location. It does not measure treatment quality or outcomes, so treat the order as a starting point and compare the details yourself.
Which of the best cardiac catheterization specialists in Shmeisani should I choose?
This page does not rank doctors by skill, so it cannot name a single best choice. Start with your reason for the visit, then compare services, hours, languages, insurers and the clinic's answers to your questions. A short call to each clinic can show whether they handle a situation like yours.
Do I need a referral before seeing a cardiologist?
Requirements vary, so confirm with the clinic when you book. Many people bring a report from their family doctor or an earlier cardiologist, which helps the doctor understand your history quickly. Bring any previous ECG, echocardiogram, stress test or catheterization reports, even if they are old.
What is the difference between diagnostic catheterization and angioplasty?
Diagnostic catheterization looks at the heart's arteries and chambers to see whether and where they are narrowed. Angioplasty uses a small balloon, and often a stent, to open a narrowed artery. Not every catheterization leads to angioplasty. The doctor decides after reviewing the images and your symptoms, and should explain the plan before any procedure.
How much does a cardiologist consultation cost in Shmeisani?
Two profiles on this page publish consultation fees: 25 JOD for Dr. Ghassan Mohammad Shawabkeh and 20 JOD for Dr. Raed Al Awaisheh. These are the only fees listed here. Confirm the price when you book, and ask separately about tests or procedures, which this page does not price.
When should I call 911 instead of booking a clinic visit?
Call 911 without delay if you have chest pain or pressure that lasts more than a few minutes or does not ease with rest, pain spreading to your arm, jaw, neck or back, sudden severe breathlessness, fainting, cold sweating or confusion. Do not drive yourself. Stable, non-urgent symptoms can be discussed at a planned visit with a cardiologist.
Which insurance companies do these cardiologists accept?
Each profile lists insurers, but a listed name does not guarantee that your plan covers the visit, tests or procedures. Dr. Ghassan Mohammad Shawabkeh and Dr. Raed Al Awaisheh list several of the same companies, while Dr. Hossam Al-Banna's profile lists a separate group, including MedVisa and MedNet. Call the clinic with your insurance details before booking.

This page helps you compare published profiles; it is not medical advice and does not rank clinical skill. In an emergency call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
