We recently moved to JLT with our 14-month-old daughter and need to find a new paediatrician. Our previous doctor was in Abu Dhabi so the commute is no longer feasible. What we're looking for: - Someone patient and gentle with toddlers (our daughter is quite anxious around doctors) - Up to date on vaccination schedules - Evening or weekend appointment availability would be ideal - Female doctor preferred as our daughter tends to be calmer with women - Clinic with a child-friendly waiting area is a bonus We're on Cigna insurance. Location anywhere between JLT, JBR, and Marina would work. If you have a paediatrician you genuinely trust and would recommend, I'd love to hear about your experience. Thank you!

hey! i totally get it, moving can be a hassle, especially with a little one. for a pediatrician near jlt, i’ve heard good things about dr. salma at prime medical center in the marina. she’s super patient and really took the time to help my friend’s kid who was also a screamer lol. as for vax schedules, she’s got that down too! they do have weekend hours, and i think cigna covers them, but u might want to double-check. hope this helps! 😊
