Top 3 Pregnancy Care Specialists in Abdali 2026

When do you need this specialty or procedure?

Pregnancy care is usually provided by obstetricians and gynaecologists, who follow a pregnancy from the first confirmed visit through birth and the weeks after. Routine care covers checks on the mother's health, the growth of the baby, blood tests, scans and planning for delivery. Some pregnancies need more specialised follow-up, for example where there is a medical condition, a previous complication or a multiple pregnancy. In those cases a doctor with maternal-fetal medicine training may be involved. The same field also covers gynaecological concerns such as irregular periods, pelvic pain and difficulty conceiving.

Book a visit if you think you may be pregnant and want confirmation and a plan, if you are pregnant and have not yet had a first antenatal visit, if you have a long-term health condition you want to discuss before or during pregnancy, or if you have had a complication in an earlier pregnancy. Couples who have been trying to conceive for a long time, usually discussed with a doctor after a set period, can also ask for an assessment.

Warning signs that need urgent care

Do not wait for an appointment if you have any of the following: heavy vaginal bleeding, severe or constant abdominal pain, fluid leaking from the vagina, fever with chills, a severe headache with blurred vision, or sudden swelling of the face or hands. Also seek emergency help for a fit or seizure, chest pain or sudden breathlessness, or a clear drop in the baby's movements in later pregnancy. In Jordan, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department straight away.

How to choose among the doctors here

The three doctors in this list all practise at Abdali Hospital Outpatient Clinics in Abdali, Amman, so location will not separate them. Choose by the kind of care you need. Dr Suzan Atamna's published services span high-risk pregnancy follow-up, vaginal and caesarean delivery, gynaecological surgery and infertility assessment. Professor Maher Maaita's profile centres on high-risk pregnancy, fetal health assessment and maternal-fetal medicine consultations. Dr Lama Al Radaideh's published services include gynaecology consultation, pregnancy care and infertility assessment.

Several practical criteria apply to any pregnancy specialist. Look at the qualifications stated on each profile, such as the Jordanian board in obstetrics and gynaecology. Check whether the doctor's stated focus matches your situation, whether you have a routine pregnancy or a condition that needs closer monitoring. Consider whether you want one doctor for the whole pregnancy and how the clinic handles follow-up visits and urgent calls.

The order on this page reflects how complete each profile's information is. It is not a recommendation of who is more skilled, and it does not predict results. Use the profiles to shortlist, then decide with the doctor's advice.

What to expect at the first visit

The first visit usually includes a history of your periods, any previous pregnancies and their outcomes, past complications, current medicines and any long-term conditions. The doctor may examine you and arrange blood tests or a scan. Profiles here describe appointments that allow review of symptoms and earlier investigations, and that discuss suitable care options. For a high-risk pregnancy, the doctor will often review risk factors and plan how often you should be seen.

Before you go, bring any available reports, previous scan results and test results, and a current list of all medicines and supplements, including doses you take. Write down the date of your last period if you know it, and dates of any earlier pregnancies. If you are seeing the doctor about fertility, bring records of any earlier tests and treatment.

Prepare a short list of questions. Useful ones include: what tests are planned and why, when each will be done, which warning signs should prompt a call, who to contact outside clinic hours, and how the doctor would discuss delivery options with you. Ask the doctor to explain anything you do not understand, and to write down the next steps.

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

Confirm the consultation fee directly with the clinic, because fees can change and the fee shown on a profile is the only one this page can state. Ask whether the clinic accepts your health insurance, and which services it covers, such as scans, blood tests or delivery. Ask whether follow-up visits are charged separately and what the cancellation policy is.

Also ask how far in advance to book, how long waiting times usually are, and whether the doctor can see you urgently if symptoms change. If you need a referral before a visit, check this when booking. Confirm the appointment time and the exact entrance you should use.

Getting there

The three doctors listed here practise at Abdali Hospital Outpatient Clinics, in Abdali, Amman. Search for Abdali in a map app and check the clinic name before you set off, because large hospital sites can have several entrances. Allow extra time at busy hours and for parking.
