Best Neurologists in Dubai

Frequently Asked Questions

• What can you expect on your first visit to a Neurology hospital in Dubai?

  When you first visit a neurology hospital in Dubai, you will be seen by a doctor who will take a detailed history of your health symptoms and medical history. In the field of neurology, diagnosis is of utmost importance. Neurological disorders can be complex and difficult to diagnose correctly. Our team of highly skilled and experienced neurologists in Dubai offers comprehensive second-opinion consultations for patients who have seen many neurology doctors in Dubai before and yet have not received the right treatment and management of their condition.

  After taking your health history, the doctor will perform a physical examination to help rule out other causes of your symptoms. The examination will focus on your nervous system, checking your reflexes, muscle strength and tone, sensation, coordination, and balance. Depending on your complaints, the neurologist will systematically investigate each nerve from the cranial nerves to the sacral nerves.

  The doctor may also order additional tests, such as blood tests, nerve conduction studies, electromyography (EMG), imaging tests, and others, depending on your individual disease and symptoms. All our Neurology hospitals in Dubai are equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment.

  After the diagnosis is made, the neurologist will develop an individualized treatment and management plan for the patient, which may include medication, physical therapy, injections, lifestyle adjustments, and other therapeutic options depending on the patient’s medical condition.

• Does GNC Dubai have the best neurologist in Dubai?

  Neurology is a complex field of medicine. Finding the correct underlying condition can be challenging for professionals at times. Two main factors have a huge impact on the ability of the neurologist to find the correct diagnosis and provide the help that you need:

  • Education is definitely one of the most important things to consider when choosing your neurologist in Dubai. If you are suffering from a serious condition that requires the best possible treatment, you want to be sure that your neurologist was trained at a reputable university. Moreover, it is important to check if his/her whole training was done at a reputable university and not just for a few months to enhance the curriculum vitae (CV).

  • Professional experience is essential, together with a reputable education. These are the most important points to consider. Generally speaking, the more experience a Neurologist has in treating various neurological disorders, the better they may be for you. If you know the type of diagnosis you have, ask how experienced the Neurologist is in treating that exact condition.

  Therefore, the German Neuroscience Center offers you only the top neurologist in Dubai with a minimum of 25 years of professional experience.

• What neurology services do we provide in Dubai?

  At the German Neuroscience Center Hospital in Dubai, we offer a wide range of neurology services for our patients with neurological disorders. We have a team of highly experienced Dubai neurologists who offer the latest in diagnosis and treatment options to provide the best possible care for our patients. In our Neurology Hospitals in Dubai, we offer Neurology services including:

  • Neurological consultations, including neurological examinations.

  • Neurological tests, such as Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV), Electromyography (EMG), Electroencephalography (EEG), Ultrasound, Evoked Potentials (EP), Neurofeedback, and Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG), as well as neuropsychological testing, can be performed. Nerve Conduction Velocity is a measure of the speed at which nerve impulses are transmitted down a peripheral nerve. With this test, each individual nerve can be investigated, and nerve damage can be located. Electromyography is a test that measures the activity of individual muscle cells. An EEG is a test that measures the electrical activity of the brain and is used to diagnose epilepsy and other disorders of the brain. Ultrasound is a diagnostic test that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of the body, allowing for any problems with the blood vessels supplying blood to the brain and inside the brain to be seen. Moreover, with Ultrasound, it is possible to visualize peripheral nerves and detect damage to the peripheral nervous system. Evoked Potentials is a test that measures the nerve’s response to specific stimuli. It is used for suspected Multiple Sclerosis and other neurological conditions. Neuropsychological testing is a type of psychological testing that is used to assess the cognitive and behavioural effects of neurological disorders.

  • A lumbar puncture (spinal tap), if needed to rule out a variety of neurologic disorders such as meningitis or encephalitis and Multiple Sclerosis, is a procedure that uses a small needle to remove cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the spinal canal. This fluid surrounds and protects the brain and spinal cord.

  • Neurological treatment such as medication, lifestyle adjustments, repositioning maneuvers, referral to neurosurgery, and physiotherapy; neuroimaging such as MRI, CT scan, and PET scan; injections for various neurological conditions; lab and pathology testing for various neurological conditions.

  The German Neuroscience Center is the leading provider of neurology services in Dubai and the UAE. We offer a range of services tailored to meet the needs of our patients. To book an appointment with one of our Dubai neurologists, please contact us.

• When should I visit a Neurology Hospital in Dubai?

  Usually, all common neurological disorders can be treated at our outpatient neurology Hospital in Dubai, and it is not necessary to be admitted to a neurology hospital in Dubai. However, if you are experiencing acute life-threatening situations like an acute stroke, loss of consciousness, sudden onset of paralysis, or any other serious neurological symptoms, it is important that you visit the nearest emergency room or a neurology hospital in Dubai near you.

  If you are suffering from any neurological disorder and aren’t sure if you need to visit a neurology hospital in Dubai, please feel free to contact us and we will guide you to the most appropriate medical facility.

• Should I visit a male or female neurologist in Dubai?

  Even though from a medical standpoint, there is no difference if you see a male or female neurologist, it might be a personal preference that should be considered. You need to be comfortable with the gender of your neurologist in order to be able to openly provide personal information regarding your condition.

  Although this is a personal choice, you need to consider the possibility that the Neurologist with the skills or experience you need might not be of the gender you prefer. The good news is that all the best neurologists are skilled to effectively give the right care for both men and women. Therefore, your primary concern should be how much experience a doctor has in treating disorders related to yours.

• What is the cost of seeing a neurologist in Dubai?

  In the best case, your insurance will cover the entire treatment and you won’t have to pay anything. If your insurance does not cover it or you do not have insurance, price becomes a factor to consider when choosing the best neurologist for you.

  Make sure you compare the same quality of providers. Dubai is a very diverse city, and this reflects in the quality of healthcare. You will find a rather low-quality provider with no outstanding education or experience offering consultations for 100-400 AED. High-quality providers from reputable institutes offer the same services for 400-1,200 AED. It’s a personal choice how important price is when choosing your neurologist in Dubai.

  It might also depend on the neurological disease. For rather serious conditions, you may want to see the absolute best and place less importance on a lower price. Moreover, being correctly diagnosed and treated can save money by making redundant visits unnecessary.
