Top 5 Clinics in Hashmi Shamali 2026

Which specialties and services does this list cover in this place?

The five profiles on this page cover two areas of care in Hashmi Shamali, Amman.

• Dentistry (four clinics). Each dental clinic lists the same core services: toothache treatment, fillings, root canal treatment, extractions, cleaning, tartar and plaque removal, and gum care. Each also lists treatment of tooth sensitivity, crowns (including zirconium), bridges, whitening, treatment of tooth decay in children and panoramic X-rays (OPG). The descriptions add different emphases:
• orthodontics at Dr Rami Abu Shamma's clinic, which lists it as a specialty
• orthodontic care, also mentioned in Dr Abdullah Matar's description
• general and cosmetic care at Dr Atheer Sawalha's clinic
• implants and restorations at Dr Omar Yusuf's centre
• Paediatrics (one clinic). Dr. Suzan Abdelrahim's clinic lists newborn and infant care, childhood vaccinations, routine and annual check-ups, and growth and development assessment. It also lists care for cough, allergies and digestive complaints in children.

This list does not include specialties such as general internal medicine, gynaecology or physiotherapy. If you need one of those, browse the wider Amman directory.

How to choose among the clinics here

People searching for the best clinics in Hashmi Shamali usually want a clinic that fits their need, schedule and budget. Because the services on the dental profiles are almost identical, the practical differences are elsewhere.

Match the clinic to the type of treatment

For a check-up, cleaning or a single filling, any of the four dental profiles lists that service. If you are considering orthodontics or implants, choose a clinic whose own description mentions it, then ask at the assessment how the dentist approaches your case. A dentist can only say whether a treatment suits you after examining you.

Check hours against your routine

The confirmed opening hours differ:

• Dr Rami Abu Shamma's clinic opens at 09:00.
• Dr Abdullah Matar's clinic stays open until 21:00 and also has Friday afternoon hours.
• The paediatric clinic closes at 17:00.

For school-age children, that may mean an early-afternoon visit after school or on a lighter day.

Think about follow-up visits

Root canal treatment, crowns, bridges and orthodontics usually need more than one appointment. A clinic that is easy to reach from home or work can matter more than small differences on paper.

For children

The paediatric clinic covers vaccinations and growth follow-up. Keeping the same clinic for these makes it easier to keep records together. For dental care in children, all four dental profiles list treatment of tooth decay and inflammation in children. Ask whether the dentist regularly sees young children if your child is anxious.

What to expect at the first visit

At a dental clinic

A first dental visit usually starts with questions about your medical history and current concerns, followed by an examination. An X-ray may be suggested if the dentist needs a clearer picture. All four profiles list panoramic X-rays (OPG). Bring:

• your ID and insurance card, if you have one
• a list of medicines you take, especially blood thinners
• details of conditions such as diabetes, heart problems or pregnancy
• any previous X-rays or dental reports

Useful questions include:

• What are my treatment options?
• How many visits will this take?
• What is the cost of each stage?
• What should I do if pain or swelling gets worse afterwards?

At the paediatric clinic

Bring your child's vaccination card and birth or growth records, plus any notes from previous doctors. Write down symptoms before you go: when they started, any fever readings, feeding or sleep changes. If your child has allergies, note any reactions you have seen and what triggered them.

When not to wait for an appointment

Some symptoms need urgent care rather than a clinic booking. Call 911 in Jordan or go to an emergency department if any of these happen.

For dental problems:

• facial or neck swelling that is spreading
• difficulty breathing or swallowing
• heavy bleeding that will not stop
• a dental problem with high fever

For children:

• trouble breathing or blue lips
• a seizure
• unusual drowsiness or being hard to wake
• signs of dehydration, such as very few wet nappies
• a baby under three months with a fever

Insurance, fees and booking: what to ask before the appointment

None of the five profiles publishes a consultation fee, so ask the clinic directly before you go. Dr. Suzan Abdelrahim's profile states that the clinic accepts insurance. Even so, confirm with the clinic whether your specific insurer and policy are accepted and what paperwork is needed. For the dental clinics, ask about insurance when you call.

Before booking, ask:

• whether the first visit is an assessment only or may include treatment
• the fee for the assessment and for any X-ray
• whether multi-stage treatments are priced as a whole or per visit
• whether your insurer needs pre-approval for procedures such as crowns or root canals

Several profiles also advise confirming that the clinician will be in on your chosen day, which is worth doing for any appointment.

Getting there

All five clinics are in Hashmi Shamali, in Amman governorate. Each profile shows its full street address and a map pin, so check it before you set off.

If you are coming from other parts of the capital, such as Shmeisani, the Gardens, Sweifieh, Khalda, Jubeiha, Tla' Al-Ali, Dabouq, Abdoun or the 7th Circle, allow extra time at busy hours. Afternoon traffic in Amman can be slow. Ask the clinic about parking when you book.

For emergencies, call 911 rather than driving to a clinic. Amman has several major hospitals, including Jordan University Hospital, Al-Bashir Hospital, King Hussein Medical Center, Specialty Hospital and Istishari Hospital.

Checklist before you book

• Confirm the clinic offers the specific service you need, and ask how it is done.
• Check the confirmed hours and the clinician's attendance on your chosen day.
• Ask the assessment fee and the expected cost of any follow-up treatment.
• Confirm whether your insurer is accepted and what documents to bring.
• Bring ID, insurance card, medication list and previous X-rays or reports.
• For children, bring the vaccination card and growth records.
• Write down your symptoms and questions in advance.
• Plan your route, travel time and parking.
• Know the warning signs that need urgent care, and call 911 if they appear.
