GGT test in Palm Jumeirah, read by a doctor.
Most Palm Jumeirah residents who book a GGT with us have either a family history, a vague symptom they can't shake, or a "borderline" result from somewhere else. High GGT independently predicts cardiovascular mortality.
Why Palm Jumeirah patients use us
Whether you live on Palm Jumeirah or you're staying at one of its hotels, getting proper medical care without leaving your villa or suite matters. Our doctors and nurses regularly visit Palm Jumeirah for everything from urgent same-day consultations to scheduled blood tests and IV therapy for jet lag or dehydration after a long journey. For residents, we also support ongoing care — including elderly family members — with the same team and same named GP each time, so there's no need to repeat your history with someone new.
