Top 3 OB-GYN Doctors in Abdali 2026

When do you need an obstetrician-gynaecologist?

Obstetrics and gynaecology covers women's health from puberty to after menopause. It includes pregnancy follow-up and delivery, and the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the uterus, ovaries, cervix and pelvic floor. Many people first see an OB-GYN for a routine reason, such as confirming a pregnancy or a cervical screening test. Others go because a symptom has started to affect daily life.

Common reasons to book a visit

• Confirming a pregnancy and starting antenatal follow-up
• Irregular, very heavy or very painful periods, or bleeding between periods
• Pelvic pain that keeps coming back or has lasted for months
• Difficulty conceiving. Mainstream guidance suggests seeking advice after about 12 months of regular unprotected intercourse, or after about 6 months if you are 35 or older. Seek advice sooner if you already know of a relevant condition.
• Symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse, such as a dragging feeling or a bulge, or leaking urine when you cough, laugh or exercise
• A pre-marriage check or advice before planning a pregnancy
• Routine cervical screening. It is generally recommended from your twenties, so ask the doctor which schedule applies to you.
• Questions about fibroids or endometriosis that another doctor has already raised

Warning signs that need urgent care

Do not wait for a clinic appointment if you notice any of the following. Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department:

• Heavy vaginal bleeding, especially in pregnancy
• Severe or one-sided abdominal pain in early pregnancy, particularly with dizziness, fainting or shoulder-tip pain
• Sudden severe headache, blurred vision or sudden swelling of the face and hands during pregnancy
• Fluid leaking from the vagina before your due date, or a clear drop in the baby's movements
• High fever with pelvic pain or foul-smelling discharge
• A seizure, chest pain or difficulty breathing

How to choose among the doctors here

All three profiles belong to consultants in obstetrics and gynaecology based in Abdali. Their published focus differs, so the most useful first step is to match your reason for the visit to each doctor's listed services.

• Surgical and pelvic floor concerns. Dr. Qasem Shehab's profile centres on gynaecologic endoscopy, laparoscopic surgery, urogynaecology, prolapse and urinary incontinence. It also includes antenatal follow-up and fertility assessment.
• Fertility and assisted reproduction. Dr. Omar Al Omari and Dr. Amal Abu Abed both list infertility and IVF as their sub-specialty and work at the same fertility and genetics centre. Dr. Al Omari's services include intrauterine insemination, egg freezing and hysteroscopic procedures. Dr. Abu Abed's services include high-risk and multiple pregnancy follow-up.
• Doctor's gender. Some women prefer a female doctor, especially for intimate examinations. Dr. Amal Abu Abed is the female doctor on this list.
• Opening hours. Dr. Shehab's clinic opens at 09:00 every listed day and closes earlier on Thursday. The fertility centre opens at 09:00 on Saturday and Sunday and at 10:00 from Monday to Thursday. If you work or study, check which slots fit your week.
• Continuity of pregnancy care. If you are pregnant, ask early where the doctor delivers and how out-of-hours concerns are handled.

People searching for the best OB-GYN doctors in Abdali often hope a list will tell them who is most skilled. This list cannot do that. It shows how complete each published profile is, so use it to compare information rather than to judge quality.

What to expect at the first visit

A first appointment usually starts with a detailed history. The doctor will ask about your periods, any pregnancies, contraception, previous surgery, long-term conditions and medicines. An examination or ultrasound may follow if it is needed and you agree to it. You can ask for a chaperone, or bring a relative or friend, at any examination.

What to bring

• Your national ID or passport, and your insurance card if you have one
• Previous test results, ultrasound reports, operation notes and any pregnancy records
• A list of current medicines and supplements
• The date of your last period and, if relevant, a note of your cycle lengths
• For fertility visits, any previous test results for both partners

Questions worth asking

• What could be causing my symptoms, and which tests do you suggest?
• What are the options, including non-surgical ones, and what are their risks?
• If a procedure is suggested, where will it take place and what is the recovery like?
• How will follow-up work, and who do I contact if symptoms get worse?

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

Only Dr. Qasem Shehab's profile lists an insurer, Arab Orient Insurance. Before booking with any of the three doctors, confirm directly with your insurer and the clinic:

• Whether the doctor and the specific service are covered under your policy
• Whether you need a referral or pre-approval, which is common for fertility treatment, surgery and some scans
• What the consultation fee is and what it includes, such as an ultrasound or a follow-up visit
• Whether tests, procedures or treatment cycles are billed separately
• How cancellations or rescheduling work

Fertility treatment often involves several stages over weeks. Ask for a written outline of the expected steps so you can plan time off work and any approvals in advance.

Getting there

All three clinics are in Abdali in central Amman, close to Shmeisani. The two fertility-focused doctors share the same centre. Dr. Shehab's clinic is in a different building, and his profile gives the floor number. Check the full address on each profile before you set off.

If you are travelling from areas such as Sweifieh, Khalda, Dabouq, Tla' Al-Ali, Jubeiha or Abdoun, allow extra time at morning and late-afternoon peaks. Ask the clinic about parking and building access when you book, especially if you are pregnant or have mobility needs.

If you need emergency care, call 911 rather than travelling to a clinic. Amman's major hospitals include Jordan University Hospital, Al-Bashir Hospital, Specialty Hospital and Istishari Hospital.

Checklist before you book

• Match your main concern to the doctor's published services and sub-specialty
• Decide whether you prefer a female doctor
• Check that the clinic's listed hours fit your schedule
• Call your insurer to confirm coverage and any pre-approval
• Ask the clinic for the consultation fee and what it covers
• Gather previous reports, scans and a list of medicines
• Note your last period date and your main questions
• For pregnancy care, ask where delivery takes place and how urgent concerns are handled
• Know the warning signs that need 911 instead of a clinic visit
