Knee Surgeon for Patients in Ain Khaled

From Ain Khaled to Aman Hospital

Ain Khaled lies on the south side of Salwa Road, between Abu Hamour and the Industrial Area. Most patients drive east along Salwa Road, then follow the ring roads towards the Old Airport area, where Aman Hospital sits close to Airport Street and the F-Ring Road.

Salwa Road is one of the busiest roads in Doha, particularly in the morning and late afternoon. If your knee is painful, ask for an appointment outside the rush hours, and consider having someone drive you, especially if it is your right knee.

Compound life, parks and the knee

Ain Khaled is a mix of residential compounds, villas and family housing, with Ain Khaled Family Park and the Fereej Ain Khaled Stadium serving the community. Many residents are expatriate families who walk, cycle and play sport close to home, alongside long-established Qatari households.

Knee problems seen from the area often follow those routines:

• Inner knee pain and swelling in walkers and joggers in their forties and fifties, sometimes a degenerative meniscus tear
• Twisting injuries from weekend football and community sport
• Children's knee pain from growth, school sport and trampolines
• Early knee osteoarthritis that limits the daily walk around the compound or the park

Pain that lasts more than a few weeks, a knee that swells after activity, or one that catches or locks is worth having examined, so the cause can be treated rather than simply rested.

Booking and what to bring

Call Aman Hospital on +974 4400 4400 or use the contact page.

• Any X-ray or MRI with its report, including scans from another clinic or from home
• A short history: when it started, what makes it worse, and what you have tried
• Your insurance card and Qatar ID; check coverage with your insurer and Aman Hospital in advance
• For a child, the school sports schedule and any previous injuries

If you are a newly arrived expatriate, bring your medical records from home in English or Arabic if possible; previous operation notes are particularly useful.
