AST test in Dubai Hills Estate, read by a doctor.
AST is one of the most ordered tests by our British-trained GPs for Dubai Hills Estate patients — and for good reason. An AST:ALT ratio >2 suggests alcohol-related liver injury; >1 in advanced fibrosis.
Why Dubai Hills Estate patients use us
Dubai Hills Estate has become home to a growing number of families, and Aafiyah's model — one named GP, proper consultations, real follow-up — fits naturally with how these families want to manage their health. From routine vaccinations for children to executive health checks for parents, blood tests, and same-day visits when someone's unwell, our team covers Dubai Hills with the same continuity of care you'd expect from a trusted family doctor back home. Most visits are arranged within 60–90 minutes, with longer-term care plans available through our membership options.
