When do you need this specialty or procedure?
Neonatology is the branch of paediatrics that cares for newborns, especially babies born early, born small, or unwell in the first weeks of life. Intensive neonatal care happens in hospital neonatal units. The doctors on this page see families in clinics and outpatient settings, which is where much of the follow-up after birth or discharge takes place.
Common reasons to book a newborn or neonatology visit include:
- A routine check in the first days or weeks after going home
- Follow-up for a baby born prematurely or with low birth weight
- Worries about feeding, slow weight gain, or frequent vomiting
- Newborn jaundice, meaning yellowing of the skin or eyes, that you have been asked to monitor
- Questions about the vaccination schedule, growth and early development
- Review of reports and test results from a hospital stay
Warning signs that need urgent care
Newborns can become unwell quickly. Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department straight away if your baby:
- Has difficulty breathing, grunts, or breathes very fast, or the skin pulls in between the ribs
- Has blue, grey or very pale lips, tongue or skin
- Is floppy, very hard to wake, or unusually unresponsive
- Has a seizure or rhythmic jerking movements
- Has a temperature of 38°C or higher and is under 3 months old
- Refuses feeds, has far fewer wet nappies than usual, or vomits green fluid
- Develops yellow skin within the first 24 hours of life, or jaundice that is spreading or getting deeper
- Has a bulging soft spot on the head
Do not wait for a clinic appointment in these situations.
How to choose among the doctors here
All nine doctors are paediatricians with neonatology listed among their subspecialties. Their published focus differs, so match the profile to your baby's needs:
- Prematurity follow-up: Some profiles explicitly list premature-infant follow-up or neonatal fellowships. These may suit a baby discharged from a neonatal unit.
- Associated concerns: Several doctors also list paediatric neurology, paediatric cardiology, or vaccines and allergies. If a hospital team flagged a heart, development or neurological question, a profile covering that area may save a referral step.
- Qualifications you can check: Look at the education section of each profile for board certification and training. Anything not published there should be confirmed with the clinic.
- Location and travel: Short trips matter with a newborn, particularly in the first weeks and in hot weather. The list covers several governorates, so start with the nearest clinic that fits your needs.
- Hours: Confirmed hours vary from morning-only to afternoon and evening sessions. One centre lists round-the-clock hours, but you still need to confirm when the doctor is attending.
- Insurance: Some profiles list accepted insurers. If you rely on insurance, this can narrow your options quickly.
People looking for the best neonatology specialists in Jordan should know that this list's order reflects profile completeness only. A higher position means more published, checkable information, not better care.
What to expect at the first visit
A newborn clinic visit usually involves a detailed history and a full physical examination. The doctor will measure weight, length and head circumference and plot them on a growth chart. Expect questions about the pregnancy, the birth, feeding, sleep, nappies and any problems since you went home.
What to bring
- The hospital discharge summary and any neonatal unit reports
- Results of newborn screening, hearing tests, blood tests or scans
- The vaccination card
- A note of feeding times and amounts, plus wet and dirty nappies for a day or two if feeding is a concern
- Any medicines or supplements the baby has been prescribed
- Spare nappies, a change of clothes and a feed
Questions worth asking
- Is my baby's weight gain on track, and when should we weigh again?
- What signs should make me call 911 or come back sooner?
- Which vaccines are due next, and when?
- For a premature baby: should development be assessed using corrected age?
- How often should follow-up visits be, and who do I contact between them?
Tell the doctor about every concern, even if it seems small. Do not start or change any medicine for your baby without medical advice.
Insurance, fees and booking: what to ask before the appointment
None of the nine profiles publishes a consultation fee, so ask about the cost when you book. Useful questions:
- What is the consultation fee, and is a follow-up visit charged separately?
- Is my insurer accepted, and is any prior approval or referral needed?
- Will tests done in the clinic, such as an EEG where offered, be billed separately?
- Is the doctor attending on the day and at the time I am booking?
- Is there a waiting area suitable for newborns, and can we avoid long waits with an exact appointment time?
Where a profile lists insurers, confirm that your specific plan is covered, because coverage can differ between plans from the same company. For doctors seen through hospital outpatient clinics, booking may go through a central desk rather than the doctor directly.
Getting there
The list covers clinics across Jordan, and each profile states its own city and district. Some biographies include building names or street directions, which you can use when planning the trip. When you book, ask for exact directions and parking or drop-off details. Allow extra time so you are not rushing with a newborn.
For the journey, use a properly fitted rear-facing car seat and keep the car cool. Bring enough supplies for a possible wait. If your baby shows any of the urgent warning signs above, go to emergency care instead of a clinic.
Checklist before you book
- Check that the doctor's published services match your baby's needs, such as newborn care, prematurity follow-up or development checks
- Read the education and qualifications listed on the profile
- Confirm the doctor's attendance day and time, not just the clinic's opening hours
- Ask about the consultation fee and any extra charges
- Confirm that your insurer and specific plan are accepted
- Ask for precise directions to the clinic
- Gather discharge summaries, test results and the vaccination card
- Write down your questions and recent feeding and nappy patterns
- Keep 911 in mind for any urgent warning sign

Frequently asked questions
How was this list of neonatology specialists in Jordan chosen?
The nine doctors come from 21 ClinicsJo profiles with a neonatology subspecialty. They are ordered by a 100-point score for how complete and checkable each profile is. The score covers platform verification, approved reviews, published experience, qualifications, biography, photo, services, insurers, confirmed hours, fee and map location. Featured placement does not change the score. The order does not measure treatment quality or outcomes.
Is the doctor ranked first the best neonatologist in Jordan?
No. Many people search for the best neonatology specialists in Jordan, but this ranking only reflects how much verifiable information each profile publishes. A doctor further down may simply have a less complete profile. Choose based on your baby's needs, the doctor's published qualifications and services, location, hours and insurance, and confirm the details with the clinic.
What is the difference between a paediatrician and a neonatologist?
A paediatrician cares for children from birth through adolescence. Neonatology is a paediatric subspecialty focused on newborns, especially premature, low-birth-weight or unwell babies. All doctors on this page are paediatricians with neonatology listed as a subspecialty. Their profiles show their published training, so check the education section for any neonatal fellowships or board qualifications.
When should a newborn see a doctor urgently?
Call 911 or go to emergency care straight away if a newborn has trouble breathing, or blue, grey or very pale lips or skin. The same applies if the baby is floppy or hard to wake, has a seizure, or has a temperature of 38°C or higher under 3 months of age. Refusing feeds, very few wet nappies, green vomit, or jaundice in the first 24 hours also need urgent care.
Do I need a neonatology follow-up after my baby leaves the neonatal unit?
Babies discharged from a neonatal unit, particularly those born early or small, are often advised to have outpatient follow-up for growth, feeding and development. Follow the plan in your discharge summary and ask the hospital team when the first visit should be. Bring all reports to the appointment so the clinic doctor can continue care smoothly.
How much does a newborn consultation cost at these clinics?
None of the nine profiles currently publishes a consultation fee, so ask the clinic directly when booking. Also ask whether follow-up visits or tests are charged separately and whether your insurer and plan are accepted. Several profiles list accepted insurers, which you can check on each profile before calling.
What should I bring to my baby's first neonatology appointment?
Bring the hospital discharge summary, any neonatal unit reports, and newborn screening and hearing results. Add other test results, the vaccination card and a list of any prescribed medicines. If feeding or weight is a concern, note feed times, amounts and nappy counts for a day or two. Pack spare nappies, clothes and a feed in case of a wait.
Why do some profiles appear first?
Profiles marked “Featured” appear first, in the display order set by the platform administration. They are a featured placement, not a measure of clinical quality; the rest of the list follows the published profile score. A featured profile shown on a district page may practise elsewhere in Amman — check the address on its card.
