Dr Mathews Alapatt has been our primary care and go to family doctor for over 15 years in Dubai. He has helped us manage all our medical needs and always pointed us to the right specialists. He is not just a doctor but also genuinely interested in his patients well being. We had moved away from Dubai for several years but when we came back, we knew who the right person to go to was! It will be difficult to find a better physician in Dubai. Look no further- Dr Mathews it is! He has never made us do any unnecessary tests and has been conservative in prescribing medications ensuring not to over medicate. Would highly recommend him!

When my long term family Doctor, Dr. Gangadharan, retired and left Dubai, I was lost to be honest, as far as check up and health guidance was concerned. Dr. Gangadharan had given me a few references and based on feed back from my childhood friend, decided to pick Dr. Mathews J Alapatt from the reference list and it was the best decision I took on my health front. He is so calm, composed and makes you so relaxed and yet tell you, what you need to do. Me and my wife are so at home with Dr. Alapatt for all our medical needs.

To get a prescription for medication in Dubai, you must visit a doctor and receive a diagnosis. If necessary, the doctor can then prescribe medication, which you can buy from a pharmacy through eRx (e-prescription). Controlled and semi-controlled drugs may require a special prescription from a specialist or consultant, such as a psychiatrist or pain management doctor.

The cost of a doctor’s visit can vary significantly depending on the type of doctor, their specialty, and whether or not you have health insurance. If you do not have insurance, a typical consultation with a doctor can cost anywhere from AED 250 to AED 625. Additional charges may apply for procedures and diagnostic services such as laboratory tests and radiology. It’s important to note that the cost of medication is also additional.
