FAQs
How much does a private GP cost in Dubai?+
In-clinic consultations at Aafiyah Care Clinic start at AED 500 for a 30–60 minute visit. Video calls are AED 300. Home doctor visits are AED 750 during the day and AED 900–1,200 overnight. Every fee includes the consultation, exam, prescription and a written report — no hidden extras.
Is a private GP visit covered by insurance?+
Most international insurance policies (Cigna, Bupa Global, Allianz, AXA PPP, GeoBlue) reimburse Aafiyah consultations against a coded invoice. Local UAE plans (Daman, Nextcare, MetLife) vary — some direct-bill, some require you to submit. We check your policy before you pay whenever we can.
Are there any hidden fees?+
No. The consultation fee is fixed. Prescriptions written during the visit are included. Medications are itemised on the pharmacy invoice — you can price-shop those. Blood tests, IV fluids and imaging referrals are quoted individually before you agree to them.
Why are private GPs in Dubai more expensive than the UK NHS?+
You're paying for on-demand access, 30–60 minute appointment time (versus the NHS 10-minute norm), same-day home visits, and a doctor who follows through by phone with results. It's closer to what you'd pay for a private GP in Central London (£150–250) — the pricing model is similar, not the operational cost of a UAE clinic.
Is there a monthly membership option?+
Yes. Aafiyah offers primary-care memberships from AED 350/month per person, which include unlimited GP video calls, discounted in-clinic and home visits, and priority same-day access. See our membership plans.

"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."
"We finally have one doctor who knows all of us. The kids actually like going. Follow-up calls happen without us chasing. Worth every dirham."
"The 40+ marker report came back with a real conversation, not a PDF dumped in my inbox. Caught a vitamin deficiency I'd been ignoring for years."
"After surgery I dreaded going back to a hospital for dressings. Their nurse came every other day, the doctor checked in by WhatsApp. Healed faster than I expected."
"Fell ill on day two of our trip. Doctor in the suite within 90 minutes, full assessment, prescription to the hotel pharmacy. Genuinely NHS-standard care in Dubai."
"My father refuses to leave the house. Aafiyah's team comes monthly, manages his medication, and treats him with such dignity. It changed everything for our family."
