Does a specialist referral mean something is wrong?
Not necessarily. An assessment may offer reassurance, clarify an uncertain finding, or plan closer care. The reason for referral determines the next step.
Can I contact the team myself?
Yes. The self-referral form needs your name, phone number, city, and a brief explanation. Other details are optional. The team will contact you and arrange any records needed.
Where do assessment and treatment take place?
Specialist MFM assessment is available through Mediclinic Airport Road Hospital in Abu Dhabi and Mediclinic Al Jowhara Hospital in Al Ain. Fetal-therapy procedures are coordinated through the designated Abu Dhabi programme. Patients in Dubai can enter the diagnostic and referral pathway through Mediclinic, with the appropriate location confirmed during triage.
How do I prepare for a second opinion?
Write down the question you want answered and your gestational age. Have your reports and previous results available. The team will explain how to share any images securely after making contact.
When should I seek urgent help?
Heavy bleeding, severe pain, fluid loss, reduced fetal movements, collapse, breathing difficulty, seizures, or a severe headache with visual symptoms need immediate medical assessment. Do not wait for an online form response.
