Dr. Hala Zantout

Dr. Hala Zantout is a Consultant Gastroenterologist and Hepatologist at Mediclinic Al Noor Hospital in Abu Dhabi. She holds an MD from the American University of Beirut and an MPH in Epidemiology, also from AUB. With over 20 years of clinical experience, she has developed deep expertise in managing complex gastrointestinal and liver conditions across both Lebanon and the UAE.

Dr. Zantout specializes in diagnosing and treating acid reflux, indigestion, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, liver disorders, and pancreatic disease. She is skilled in performing both diagnostic and therapeutic upper and lower endoscopy (camera-based examinations of the stomach and bowel), and leads colon cancer screening programs.

Her career includes significant leadership experience: she served as Head of the Division of Gastroenterology at Rafik Hariri University Hospital in Beirut, where she also held the role of administrative resident coordinator. She is a good fit for patients seeking expert management of chronic digestive conditions, liver disease, or those requiring endoscopic procedures, especially those who prefer to communicate in Arabic.
