Specialist, Family Medicine at SEHA, Abu Dhabi

SEHA, Abu Dhabi's public healthcare provider, is hiring a Specialist in Family Medicine. The Specialist shares the Consultant's responsibility for high-quality, evidence-based, patient-centred care and helps supervise and train junior doctors. Clinical duties include diagnosing and treating patients, leading ward rounds, reviewing investigation results, documenting care accurately, taking part in multidisciplinary meetings, accepting referrals from the emergency department, primary care and clinics, and joining the out-of-hours on-call rota (evenings, nights, weekends and public holidays). The listing is open on SEHA's careers portal until 16 November 2026. Practical notes: the experience you need after board certification depends on where you trained (SEHA uses a Tier 1, 2 and 3 system for qualifying countries). Check which tier your certification falls under before applying, and keep your board certificate and experience letters ready, as you will need them for Department of Health Abu Dhabi licensing. Salary is not stated in the listing. Apply only through the official apply link on this page. Genuine employers do not ask for money at any stage of hiring; if anyone does, treat it as fraud.
