Dr. Jim Mathew

Dr. Jim Mathew is an internal medicine physician with a particular focus on geriatric medicine. He completed his MBBS at Kasturba Medical College in Mangalore, India, followed by an MD in Internal Medicine at Kasturba Medical College in Manipal, India. He worked as an Assistant Professor in Internal Medicine at Kasturba before relocating to the United Kingdom, where he practiced Internal Medicine and Geriatric Medicine in Wales for four years. He now works at Mediclinic Al Qusais in Dubai.

With over ten years of experience, Dr. Mathew manages the full range of internal medicine problems—from acute illness to chronic disease—with special expertise in the medical care of older adults. Geriatric medicine requires particular skill: older patients often have multiple conditions, take many medications, and need careful coordination of care. This is Dr. Mathew's main area of interest and strength.

He speaks English, Hindi, Malayalam, and Tamil, making him accessible to a broad patient population in the UAE. He is a good fit for adults—especially older patients—who need careful management of long-term health conditions and want a doctor trained in the nuances of aging.
