Why primary care matters

A clinic built around your named GP.

Primary care in Dubai has historically been dominated by walk-in polyclinics where patients see a different doctor each visit. Aafiyah Care Clinic was built to change this — bringing the British GP model to Dubai. Every Aafiyah patient is assigned a named GP who manages their care continuously, building a relationship over time and catching health problems before they become crises.

Our model is inspired by proven global standards from the UK and Scandinavia, adapted for the cultural, regulatory and insurance ecosystem of the UAE — and fully aligned with DHA Policy Directive PD 01/2021 on GP-led specialist referrals.

FAQs

Primary care in Dubai — your questions answered.

What is primary care in Dubai?+

Primary care is the first point of contact for non-emergency healthcare — managed by a GP (General Practitioner) who coordinates your overall health rather than just one organ system. At Aafiyah Care Clinic in Business Bay, every patient is assigned a named British-trained GP who manages their care continuously.

Is there a British GP-led primary care clinic in Dubai?+

Yes — Aafiyah Care Clinic is a DHA-licensed British GP-led primary care clinic at Unit G09, Churchill Executive Towers, Business Bay. Our model is inspired by the UK NHS GP system: one named GP, continuity of care, and proper referrals only when needed.

How much does a GP consultation cost in Dubai?+

GP consultations at Aafiyah start from AED 400 in clinic and AED 500 for home visits. Many insurance plans reimburse — we issue coded invoices for reimbursement claims.

Do I need a GP referral to see a specialist in Dubai?+

Most UAE insurers allow direct access to specialists, but DHA Policy Directive PD 01/2021 encourages GP-led referrals. A GP review first usually means a more accurate diagnosis, fewer duplicated tests and lower out-of-pocket costs.

Which areas of Dubai does Aafiyah serve?+

We serve all major Dubai areas including Business Bay, Downtown Dubai, DIFC, Dubai Marina, JBR, Jumeirah, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Hills Estate, The Springs and Emirates Hills — with most home visits arriving within 60–90 minutes of booking.

"Called at 8am with a fever, had a British-trained doctor at my door by 11. He sat with me for 45 minutes — not the 5 minutes I'm used to. Prescription delivered same day. Felt like having a proper GP again."
