About Dr. Ahmad Khattab
Women who see Dr. Ahmad Khattab at Dar Al Kamal Hospital in Sharjah are treated by a senior consultant in obstetrics and gynecology whose career has centred on complex pregnancy care. A British national, he holds the FRCOG and MRCOG from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and a UK Certificate of Completion of Training, with further fellowships in minimal access surgery, assisted conception and colposcopy.
Much of his work has been in high-risk obstetrics. As a consultant at the Women Specialised Hospital of King Fahd Medical City in Riyadh, where he also chaired the obstetrics and gynaecology department, he managed serious emergencies in pregnancy such as eclamptic fits and major bleeding around birth. His hands-on obstetric skills include cervical cerclage for women at risk of early delivery, vacuum-assisted birth, vaginal breech delivery and the repair of third- and fourth-degree tears after childbirth.
In gynecology, Dr. Khattab uses minimally invasive, keyhole techniques and carries out colposcopy for women with abnormal cervical screening results. His training with the British Fertility Society means he can also guide couples through fertility investigations and the treatment options open to them.
Alongside clinical work, Dr. Khattab has held academic posts as Associate Professor at Ajman University and Assistant Professor at King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences. He has also served as clinical audit lead and chaired a hospital quality improvement committee, and he headed the obstetrics and gynaecology department at Saudi German Hospital in Ajman.
