Top 3 Treatment of pituitary gland conditions Doctors in Jordan 2026

When do you need this specialty or procedure?

Treatment of pituitary gland conditions belongs to endocrinology. The pituitary is a small gland at the base of the brain that works like a control panel for the thyroid, the adrenal glands, the ovaries or testes, growth and water balance. When it makes too much or too little of a hormone, or a growth presses on nearby tissue, symptoms can be wide-ranging.

Book a visit with an endocrinologist if you notice a pattern that lasts, such as:

• persistent tiredness or low energy without a clear cause
• low sex drive, irregular periods or fertility concerns
• milk discharge from the breast when you are not pregnant or breastfeeding
• gradual changes in facial features, or hands and feet that seem to be growing larger
• unexplained weight change
• strong thirst with heavy urination
• headaches with loss of part of your field of vision

These signs have many possible causes, so a doctor needs to assess them. Assessment usually starts with hormone blood tests, may include dynamic tests, and often includes a pituitary MRI and formal visual fields. The assessment visit typically lasts 30 to 45 minutes, and tests are usually completed over one to two weeks. Follow-up commonly takes place every three to six months.

Urgent warning signs

Do not wait for a routine appointment if you have any of these: a sudden, severe headache; sudden loss of vision or of side vision; new confusion or drowsiness; fainting; repeated vomiting with weakness or dizziness; or severe thirst with very high urine output and confusion. In Jordan, call 911 right away.

How to choose among the doctors here

The three profiles on this page are endocrinologists in Amman who list pituitary care among their services. When you compare pituitary gland conditions treatment doctors in Jordan, these checks are useful:

• Services that match your concern. All three list treatment of pituitary gland conditions alongside thyroid and adrenal care.
• Your area and hours. Compare the Abdali, Jabal Amman and 4th Circle locations with the days and times you can attend.
• The investigation pathway. Ask how MRI and visual field tests are arranged and who reviews the results. One profile states that investigations and procedures follow assessment at its practice.
• Age group. One profile also lists growth and puberty assessment in children.
• Language. One profile lists Arabic and English.
• Insurer. Two profiles list Arab Orient Insurance.

The ranking on this page is a profile-completeness score. It does not measure clinical skill, so treat it only as a starting point for your own comparison.

What to expect at the first visit

The first visit is an assessment. Expect the doctor to ask about your symptoms, when they began, the medicines you take and any family history of hormone or growth problems. A physical examination usually follows. Some clinics arrange blood tests and imaging within the same pathway, while others start with the first review and order tests afterwards.

Bring:

• a list of all medicines, supplements and contraceptives you take
• previous hormone or blood sugar results, with dates
• any MRI, CT or eye reports, and your current glasses or eye prescription
• a short written timeline of symptoms, including headaches or any vision changes
• your ID and insurance card if you plan to claim

Useful questions include: Which tests do you recommend, and in what order? How long before I get results? If the test shows a hormone imbalance, what are the options and what follow-up will I need? Who should I contact if my symptoms change?

Insurance, fees and booking

Before you book, confirm three things with each clinic: the consultation fee, whether it accepts your insurer, and who arranges any MRI or visual field tests. Dr. Rami Abdullah Salameh's profile publishes a consultation fee of 30 JOD. For the other profiles, ask the clinic directly. Arab Orient Insurance is listed for Dr. Rami Abdullah Salameh and Dr. Duaa Okkeh.

Hours differ between clinics, and Thursday hours are shorter at two of them, so check the exact day you want. Ask the clinic about its rescheduling and cancellation rules when you book.

Getting there

All three clinics are in Amman. Dr. Rami Abdullah Salameh's clinic is in Abdali, Amman. Dr. Hala Noaman Ahmad Owaineh practises at Al Khalidi Medical Plaza in Jabal Amman, Amman. Dr. Duaa Okkeh's clinic is in the 4th Circle area of Amman. Traffic in central Amman can be heavy at peak hours, so allow extra time. If you expect a second trip for an MRI or eye test, plan transport for that day too. Where a profile shows a map location, use it to check the route before you leave. Confirm the address when you book, rather than relying on an older listing.
