Top 2 Dietitians in Amman 2026

When do you need this specialty or procedure?

A dietitian or nutrition specialist builds a personal eating plan and reviews it over time. People commonly book for weight loss or weight gain, a new diabetes diagnosis, heart-health goals, pregnancy or breastfeeding, sports nutrition, nutrition in older age, food allergies or sensitivities, and planned lifestyle changes. Children with constipation, weight concerns or growth questions may be better served by a pediatric specialist who also works on child nutrition.

Book a visit when:

• You want to lose or gain weight and have tried general advice without a plan that fits your routine.
• You have recently been told you have diabetes and want help understanding meals alongside your medical care.
• You suspect a food is causing problems and want a structured way to identify it.
• You are planning a change in how you eat or move and want support to keep it going.

Urgent warning signs

Some symptoms need emergency care, not a nutrition appointment. Call 911 in Jordan if you or someone with you has chest pain, difficulty breathing, fainting, new confusion, vomiting blood or blood in the stool, or a severe allergic reaction with swelling of the lips, tongue or throat. Seek urgent medical care the same day for very high or very low blood sugar with drowsiness or confusion, or for a child who cannot keep fluids down.

How to choose among the doctors here

The three profiles on this page are not interchangeable. Start by matching training to your need. If you want an ongoing eating plan for weight, sports or general nutrition, the nutrition specialist profile is the closest fit. If a child has digestive, liver or growth concerns, a pediatric physician is more suitable, and a nutrition plan may be part of that care.

Check these points before you decide:

• Services: confirm the listed services match your reason for visiting.
• Age group: one profile is for adults, while the two pediatric profiles are for children.
• Location: the clinics are in Dahiyat Al Rasheed, Jubeiha and Shmeisani, so choose the one that is practical to reach from your home or work.
• Hours: the confirmed hours differ, and some days have no listed times.
• Follow-up: ask how check-ins work, including whether remote follow-up is available.

Avoid choosing only because a profile appears first. The order reflects how complete the published information is, and it does not measure clinical quality.

What to expect at the first visit

A first nutrition consultation usually begins with your goals, your usual meals and your health history. Dietitians often ask about typical days, how much you move, sleep, and any medicines or supplements you take. Clear answers help the plan fit real life.

Bring the following if you have them:

• A list of current medicines and supplements.
• Recent laboratory results, such as blood sugar or cholesterol tests.
• A simple food diary covering a few typical days.
• For children, the growth record and a list of symptoms and when they started.

For pediatric visits, the specialist at the Shmeisani clinic reviews symptoms, growth and previous investigations to guide follow-up, so a complete set of records saves time. Write down your questions in advance, such as what the first goal is, how often you should return, and what signs mean you should call the clinic sooner.

Insurance, fees and booking

Before you book, ask the clinic directly about its consultation fee, whether it accepts your insurance plan, and how cancellations are handled. Fees and insurance arrangements can change, so confirm them at the time of booking rather than relying on an older listing. Ask whether the first visit is longer than follow-up visits, and whether the clinic can send a written summary of the plan.

If you are booking for a child, check whether the adult who attends will need to sign consent forms and bring identification. Confirm the appointment time against the hours shown on the profile, and call ahead if a public holiday might affect the day.

Getting there

The clinics on this page serve different parts of Amman. The pediatric physician in Shmeisani sees patients at Specialty Hospital outpatient building A, on the second floor, clinic 7. The physician whose profile lists King Hussein Cancer Center as her clinic is based in Jubaiha. Plan extra travel time at busy hours and ask the clinic to confirm the exact entrance before your visit.

For the nutrition consultation clinic, ask the clinic for directions from your area before you travel, since its location is best confirmed directly with the clinic.

Checklist before you book
