Top 5 Doctors in Hashmi Shamali 2026

Which specialties and services does this list cover in Hashmi Shamali?

This page brings together five profiles from Hashmi Shamali in Amman: one paediatrician and four dentists. ClinicsJo holds seven profiles for this area, and these five scored highest on profile completeness.

Children's health

Dr. Suzan Abdelrahim's paediatric clinic publishes services for newborn and infant care, childhood vaccinations, routine and annual check-ups, growth and development assessment, and assessment of allergies, cough and digestive complaints in children.

Dental care

The four dental clinics publish the same list of services: toothache treatment, fillings, root canal treatment, extractions, cleaning and tartar removal, gum care and gingivitis treatment, sensitivity treatment, crowns (including zirconium), bridges, whitening, care for tooth decay in children and panoramic X-rays (OPG). Their biographies differ in emphasis:

• Orthodontic care is mentioned for Dr. Abdullah Matar's practice and for Dr. Rami Abu Shamma, whose profile lists orthodontics as a sub-specialty.
• Cosmetic dental care is mentioned for Dr. Rami Abu Shamma, Dr. Atheer Sawalha and Dr. Omar Yusuf.
• Dental implants and restorations are mentioned for Dr. Omar Yusuf's centre.

If you need a different specialty, this list will not cover it, so search ClinicsJo for that specialty in Amman.

How to choose among the doctors here

People looking for the best doctors in Hashmi Shamali usually want someone suitable, nearby and available. These practical points help:

• Match your need to the published services. For a baby or child's general health, vaccinations or growth follow-up, the paediatric clinic is the relevant profile. For teeth and gums, any of the four dental clinics lists the core services.
• Use the biography emphasis for specialist work. Because the dental service lists are identical, the biographies are more informative. If braces or aligners are your question, start with the practices that mention orthodontics. For implants, the profile that mentions implants is the natural first call.
• Ask who performs the procedure. A published service does not tell you who carries it out or how often. For orthodontics, implants or root canal treatment, ask who will treat you, what training they hold and what the plan and follow-up involve.
• Check hours against your routine. The paediatric clinic opens Saturday to Thursday, 11:00–17:00. Dental hours range from a 09:00 start (Dr. Rami Abu Shamma) to 21:00 closing (Dr. Abdullah Matar), and only Dr. Abdullah Matar's clinic lists Friday hours (14:00–17:00).
• Consider personal preferences. Dr. Suzan Abdelrahim and Dr. Atheer Sawalha are listed as female, which matters to some families.
• Read the order correctly. The ranking reflects how complete each profile is, not how good the care is.

What to expect at the first visit

Paediatric visit

Bring your child's vaccination card, any previous medical reports or test results, a list of medicines and known allergies, and your insurance card. Note when symptoms started, any temperature readings, and changes in feeding, sleep or wet nappies. The doctor will usually take a history, examine your child and may measure weight, height and head size to follow growth.

Useful questions: which vaccinations are due next, what signs should prompt a return visit, and when the next growth check should be.

Call 911 or go to an emergency department straight away if a child has difficulty breathing, blue or grey lips, a seizure, is floppy or hard to wake, shows signs of dehydration such as no wet nappies, has a rash that does not fade when a glass is pressed on it, or is a baby under 3 months with a temperature of 38°C or higher.

Dental visit

Bring a list of your medicines (especially blood thinners), any medical conditions, previous dental X-rays and your insurance card. Tell the dentist if you are or might be pregnant before any X-ray. Expect an examination and possibly a panoramic X-ray, followed by a discussion of options.

Useful questions: what are the alternatives, how many sessions are needed, what each step costs, and what aftercare is required.

Seek urgent care, or call 911, for facial or neck swelling that is spreading, difficulty swallowing or breathing, high fever with dental pain, bleeding after an extraction that does not stop with firm pressure, or a facial injury. A knocked-out adult tooth needs dental care as quickly as possible.

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

Dr. Suzan Abdelrahim's profile lists 12 insurers: Arab Orient Insurance, Jordan French Insurance Company (JOFICO), Solidarity – First Insurance Company, Al-Nisr Al-Arabi Insurance Company, Euro Arab Insurance Group, Al-Manara Insurance Company, The Arab Assurers for Insurance, and plans listed via NatHealth for AXA, Allianz, Arab Jordanian Insurance, Jerusalem Insurance and United Insurance. Even if your insurer appears, confirm that your specific plan is accepted and whether pre-approval is needed.

For the dental clinics, ask directly which insurers they accept and whether your policy includes dental cover. Cover often varies by procedure, so check whether cosmetic treatments such as whitening are included.

Before booking, ask:

• What the consultation fee is, and whether X-rays or follow-up visits cost extra.
• Whether you can receive a written estimate for multi-step treatment such as crowns, bridges, implants or orthodontics.
• Which payment methods are accepted.
• How long the first appointment usually takes and how to reschedule.

Getting there

Hashmi Shamali is a district of Amman. Each entry above shows the clinic's published address, including the building or complex name where available. Before you set off, confirm the building, floor and parking arrangements with the clinic.

If you are travelling from other parts of the capital, such as Abdoun, Jubeiha, Sweifieh, Khalda, Tla' Al-Ali, Shmeisani, 7th Circle or Dabouq, allow extra time at busy hours.

For hospital-level care, Amman's major hospitals include Jordan University Hospital, King Hussein Medical Center, Al-Bashir Hospital, Specialty Hospital and Istishari Hospital, with King Hussein Cancer Center for cancer care. In an emergency, call 911 rather than travelling to a clinic.
