How we chose this list

Every matching doctor profile in this area was scored out of 100 for how complete and checkable its published information is, and the highest scores appear here in order.

When do you need this specialty or procedure?

A pilonidal sinus is a small tunnel or cavity under the skin at the top of the cleft between the buttocks, near the tailbone. It often begins when broken hairs are driven into the skin and cause an inflammatory reaction. Pilonidal sinus treatment is handled by general surgeons, and several doctors on this list place it within general or colorectal surgery.

The condition usually appears in one of two ways. In the chronic form, one or more small pits on the skin discharge fluid, blood or foul-smelling material, and sitting can become painful. In the acute form, a painful, swollen, hot abscess builds up, making sitting and walking difficult, and it needs urgent drainage. The condition is most common in young adults. Long periods of sitting, coarse body hair in the area, sweating, friction, excess weight and difficulty keeping the area clean and dry can all increase the risk.

Book a visit if you notice a pit or dimple in the cleft that keeps draining, or if the area hurts when you sit and the problem comes back.

Warning signs that need urgent care

Do not wait for a routine appointment if you have any of the following. Go to the nearest emergency department, or call 911 if you feel very unwell:

  • a painful, swollen, hot lump in the cleft that is getting bigger
  • fever, chills or feeling generally unwell
  • redness spreading across the buttocks or lower back
  • pain so severe that you cannot sit, walk or pass urine comfortably
  • pus or bleeding that does not stop

An abscess generally needs drainage by a doctor. Do not try to squeeze or cut it open yourself.

How to choose among the doctors here

Start with the question that matters most: does the profile list pilonidal sinus treatment among its services? Five of the eight profiles do: Dr. Mumen Mamoun Diraneyya, Dr. Hamed Mahmoud Matkari, Dr. Haitham Hamdan, Dr. Mohammad Zaied Al Kiswani and Dr. Nedal Semreen. The other three list related anal and colorectal care, so ask those clinics directly about pilonidal treatment before you travel.

Other practical criteria include:

  • Experience: some profiles publish years in practice, such as 25 years for Dr. Mumen Mamoun Diraneyya and 17 years for Dr. Mohammad Faiq Hamdan. Where no figure is published, ask about the doctor's experience with sinus treatment.
  • Location and hours: compare the district and the confirmed hours with your schedule, especially if you need a visit soon after the first symptoms.
  • Hospital setting: some doctors consult from hospital outpatient clinics, such as Istishari Hospital or Istiklal Hospital, which can matter if drainage has to happen promptly.
  • Training and memberships: read the full education and membership lists rather than judging from a single title.
  • Insurers and fees: these are covered in section 4 below.

The number beside each name reflects how complete the profile is, not how skilled the doctor is, so use these criteria to decide.

What to expect at the first visit

The doctor will ask when the problem started, how often the pits drain, what the discharge looks like, how much pain you have, whether it has happened before, and about your general health and medicines. Diagnosis is clinical, meaning it is made by direct examination. The doctor will look at the pits and map the extent of the tunnel.

Based on the examination, the doctor will discuss the usual stages of care: examining and mapping the sinus; managing an acute abscess if one is present; choosing the definitive technique; the surgical procedure itself; and wound care with steps to reduce the chance of the problem returning. Drainage of an acute abscess usually takes 15 to 30 minutes. Definitive surgery usually takes 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the technique and the extent of the tract, and most people go home the same day.

Bring a list of your current medicines and any allergies, any previous reports or letters about this problem, and your questions written down. Useful questions include:

  • Is my condition acute or chronic, and what does that mean for my plan?
  • Which options suit my situation, and what recovery should I expect?
  • How will the wound be cared for at home, and when should I come back?
  • What can I do day to day to lower the chance of it returning?
  • Will I need a follow-up visit?

In general, keeping the area clean and dry, following the wound-care instructions you are given, and limiting long periods of sitting where you can are sensible steps that major medical guidance also recommends.

Insurance, fees and booking

Before you book, check three things on each profile: whether your insurer is listed, the published consultation fee, and the confirmed opening hours. Insurers differ from one profile to the next, and some profiles list only a few. Confirm directly with the clinic whether your policy covers the consultation and any procedure you may need.

Published consultation fees on this page are 20, 25 or 30 JOD, depending on the doctor. Fees for procedures are not set here, so ask the clinic for the cost of the specific treatment before you agree to it.

Use the contact details shown on each profile to arrange a visit. This page does not list numbers, and some profiles ask you to call the clinic to arrange attendance.

Getting there

Several of the listed clinics are in Khalda, Shmeisani and the 7th Circle. Some doctors consult from the outpatient clinics at Istishari Hospital. Amman traffic can change a great deal through the day, so check the travel time for the hour of your appointment rather than an average time.

Checklist before you book

  • Confirm the doctor lists pilonidal sinus treatment, or ask directly.
  • Check the district and the confirmed hours against your schedule.
  • Confirm your insurer is listed, and ask whether it covers the visit and any procedure.
  • Note the published consultation fee, and ask about the cost of any procedure.
  • Write down your symptoms, when they started and your questions.
  • Know the urgent warning signs, and call 911 if they appear.

What sets the price of Pilonidal Sinus Treatment?

  • Surgeon and anaesthetist fees
  • The hospital, room type and length of stay
  • The technique used (keyhole, laser or open surgery)
  • Pre-operative tests and medical supplies
  • Follow-up visits after the operation

Expected duration (from the procedure guide): Draining an acute abscess usually takes 15 to 30 minutes, and definitive surgery 30 to 90 minutes depending on the technique and extent of the tract; most patients go home the same day.

How to ask about the price

Before booking, ask the clinic for the all-inclusive price and what it covers, any extra tests or scans, how many follow-up visits are included, the payment options, and whether your insurance is accepted. You can reach them through the contact details on the doctor and clinic profiles on this page.

The figures above were published by the clinics and doctors themselves on ClinicsJo and may change. We do not estimate prices. Confirm the all-inclusive price with the clinic before booking. Offers on ClinicsJo

Frequently asked questions

How was this list chosen?
The eight profiles are ordered by a published 100-point profile-completeness score. It covers platform verification, approved reviews, published years of experience, qualifications, biography, photo, services, listed insurers, confirmed opening hours, consultation fee and map location. Featured placement does not change the score. The order does not measure treatment quality or outcomes, so use it as a starting point only.
Is the first doctor on the list the best choice?
No. The first position reflects how complete the published profile is, not how skilled the doctor is. Each profile differs in the services it lists, its location, its hours and its insurers. Compare the details that matter for your own situation, and ask the clinic about pilonidal sinus treatment before your visit.
Which doctors on this list publish pilonidal sinus treatment as a service?
Five profiles list it: Dr. Mumen Mamoun Diraneyya, Dr. Hamed Mahmoud Matkari, Dr. Haitham Hamdan, Dr. Mohammad Zaied Al Kiswani and Dr. Nedal Semreen. The other three list related anal and colorectal services. Check the service list on each profile, and ask the clinic to confirm before you book.
How much is a consultation with these doctors?
The published consultation fees on these profiles are 20, 25 or 30 JOD, depending on the doctor. Fees can change, so confirm the amount with the clinic before you book. Procedure costs are not set on this page and should be discussed with the clinic before any treatment.
When should I go to an emergency department instead of waiting for an appointment?
Go straight to an emergency department, or call 911, if a painful, swollen, hot lump in the cleft is getting bigger, or if you have fever, chills, spreading redness, pus, bleeding that will not stop, or pain so severe you cannot sit or walk. An abscess usually needs drainage by a doctor, so do not try to open it yourself.
Will my insurance cover a visit to these clinics?
Each profile lists the insurers it accepts, and the lists differ. Check that your insurer appears on the profile you are considering. Then ask the clinic whether your policy covers the consultation and any procedure, since coverage can depend on the specific service.
Does every pilonidal sinus need surgery?
Not necessarily. The right approach depends on whether the sinus is acute or chronic and how extensive the tract is. An acute abscess usually needs drainage, while the definitive technique is chosen after examination. Ask the doctor to explain the options and the reasons for their suggestion.
