Dr. Huda Sadek is a consultant paediatrician with 25 years of clinical experience, combining general paediatrics with specialist expertise in neurodevelopment and community paediatrics. She qualified with her MBBCh from the University of Tripoli, Libya in 1993, then trained extensively across major teaching hospitals in London, where she completed specialist qualifications in both general paediatrics and neurodevelopmental paediatrics. She holds MRCPCH and FRCPCH credentials and is registered with the UK's General Medical Council as a specialist in neurodevelopment.
Since moving to the UAE in 2014, Dr. Sadek has worked as a consultant paediatrician at leading hospitals including the American Hospital Dubai, Mafraq Hospital, and Sheikh Khalifa Medical City in Abu Dhabi. She focuses on developmental delays, neurodevelopmental disorders, and child development concerns—conditions often missed without specialist attention. Her approach combines thorough assessment with practical advice for families managing these conditions.
Dr. Sadek is deeply invested in training the next generation of paediatricians and leads neurodevelopmental rotation programmes at two major paediatric training schemes in Abu Dhabi. She is an excellent fit if your child needs evaluation for developmental concerns, learning difficulties, or neurodevelopmental conditions, or if you are seeking a paediatrician with both broad child health expertise and deep specialist knowledge.
Special interests: postgraduate medical education, neurodevelopmental training, community paediatrics.
