Top 6 Vascular Surgery Specialists in Amman 2026

When do you need a vascular surgeon?

Vascular surgery deals with the arteries and veins outside the heart and brain. Vascular surgeons assess and treat:

• Varicose veins and chronic venous problems, such as aching or heavy legs, swelling, skin discolouration and leg ulcers.
• Peripheral arterial disease (PAD), where narrowed leg arteries cause calf pain on walking that eases with rest, cold feet or slow-healing wounds.
• Diabetic foot problems, especially when poor circulation is part of the picture.
• Venous thrombosis (blood clots) and its long-term after-effects.
• Aortic disease, including aneurysms that are often found by chance on a scan.
• Dialysis access, meaning the creation and care of a fistula or graft for people with kidney failure.

Book a routine visit if you have visible, painful or swollen varicose veins, leg pain on walking, a foot or leg wound that has not healed after a few weeks, or a scan report mentioning an aneurysm or narrowed artery. If you have diabetes, smoke, have high blood pressure or high cholesterol, take changes in your legs and feet seriously and mention these risk factors to your doctor.

Warning signs that need urgent care

Call 911 or go to an emergency department immediately for:

• A leg or arm that suddenly becomes cold, pale, numb, very painful or weak.
• A swollen, painful calf together with chest pain, sudden breathlessness or coughing up blood.
• Sudden severe pain in the abdomen or back, especially if you have a known aneurysm.
• Sudden facial drooping, arm weakness or slurred speech, which can be signs of a stroke.
• A diabetic foot with spreading redness, fever, a foul smell or darkened skin.

These situations should not wait for a clinic appointment.

How to choose among the doctors here

All six doctors on this page work in vascular surgery. Several are listed under general surgery with vascular surgery as their sub-specialty. Searching for the best vascular surgery specialists in Amman is a reasonable start, but the right choice depends on your problem and your practical situation.

• Match the published scope to your concern. Some profiles name dialysis access, aortic disease or chronic wounds specifically. Others focus on varicose veins and arterial or venous assessment. Read each profile's services and biography.
• Check where procedures happen. Many vascular treatments are planned at a clinic visit but carried out in a hospital or day-surgery setting. Ask where any procedure would take place and whether that suits you and your insurer.
• Consider hours. Most clinics here work Saturday to Wednesday with shorter Thursdays. One profile lists a full Thursday, and some open at 09:00. This matters if you work or travel in from outside the city.
• Think about location and follow-up. Vascular care often needs repeat visits, scans and wound checks, so a clinic you can reach easily helps.
• Look for credentials stated in the profile. Some biographies mention board qualifications. Where a detail matters to you, ask the clinic directly.

What to expect at the first visit

A first vascular consultation usually involves a detailed history, an examination of your legs, feet or pulses, and a review of any previous tests. The doctor may suggest further investigations, such as a duplex ultrasound scan, before deciding on a plan.

What to bring

• Previous ultrasound, CT or other imaging reports, plus the images on disc if you have them.
• Recent blood test results, especially for diabetes, kidney function and cholesterol.
• A list of all your medicines, including blood thinners and diabetes treatment.
• Referral letters and discharge summaries from earlier hospital stays.
• Your insurance card and ID.

Wear loose clothing that is easy to roll up or remove from the legs.

Questions to ask

• What is causing my symptoms, and do I need more tests?
• What are the options, including lifestyle measures, compression or monitoring?
• If a procedure is suggested, where is it done, and what is the recovery?
• What follow-up will I need, and what warning signs should bring me back sooner?

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

None of the six profiles currently publishes a consultation fee or a list of insurers, so confirm these points with the clinic directly:

• Is the consultation covered by my insurer, and do I need prior approval or a referral?
• What is the consultation fee, and does it include a review of scans or a follow-up visit?
• Are investigations such as ultrasound done at the clinic or elsewhere, and are they billed separately?
• If a procedure is recommended, will the hospital and insurer need separate approvals?
• Is the doctor attending on the day I plan to come? Some profiles specifically advise confirming this.

Getting there

Amman is large, and traffic at peak hours can add a lot of time to a short distance. The clinics on this list are spread across central and western areas of the city, including Shmeisani, where one profile lists outpatient clinics at Specialty Hospital. If you are coming from districts such as Khalda, Dabouq, Sweifieh, Abdoun, Tla' Al-Ali or Jubeiha, check each profile's address and map location and allow extra time.

Many clinics are inside medical complexes or hospital outpatient buildings. Note the floor, building and clinic number from the profile before you leave. If you have trouble walking because of leg pain or a wound, ask the clinic about the nearest drop-off point.

Checklist before you book

• Match your concern (veins, arteries, diabetic foot, clots, aorta or dialysis access) to the doctor's published scope.
• Confirm the doctor is attending on your chosen day and time.
• Ask about insurance coverage, approvals and the consultation fee.
• Gather imaging, blood tests, your medicine list and referral letters.
• Ask where any recommended procedure would be done.
• Check the address, floor and clinic number, and plan for traffic.
• Know the warning signs above, and call 911 rather than waiting for an appointment if they appear.
