Finding the right doctor is about more than credentials. Patients want someone who takes the time to listen, explain their condition clearly, and guide them through every stage of their healthcare journey. For many residents in Dubai, that kind of care can be found at HMS Al Garhoud Hospital through Filipino Internal Medicine Specialist Dr. Abner Abejo.
Located in the heart of Al Garhoud, HMS Al Garhoud Hospital has been serving the UAE community since 2012. The hospital offers a comprehensive range of medical services backed by modern facilities, advanced diagnostic technology, and internationally recognized standards of patient care. While it is part of the HMS Health and Medical Services Group, HMS Al Garhoud Hospital has built its own reputation as a trusted destination for quality healthcare, serving patients from across the UAE.
Among its experienced medical team is Dr. Abner Abejo, a Filipino physician who has dedicated more than two decades to adult healthcare. As a Specialist in Internal Medicine, he focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases affecting adults, helping patients manage both common illnesses and complex medical conditions.
Dr. Abejo provides care for a wide range of health concerns, including hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart disease, kidney disorders, thyroid conditions, gastrointestinal illnesses, infections, anemia, arthritis, gout, and autoimmune diseases. His goal is not only to treat symptoms but also to help patients understand their health, prevent complications, and improve their overall quality of life.
What sets Dr. Abejo apart is his patient-centered approach. He believes that every consultation should be a conversation, where patients are encouraged to ask questions, understand their diagnosis, and actively participate in decisions about their treatment. By combining clinical expertise with clear communication, he strives to make every patient feel informed and confident about their care.
Dr. Abejo earned his Doctor of Medicine degree from the Far Eastern University Dr. Nicanor Reyes Medical Foundation – Institute of Medicine in the Philippines before completing his residency training in Internal Medicine at East Avenue Medical Center. He is a Fellow of the Philippine College of Physicians and is affiliated with both the Emirates Medical Association and the American College of Physicians.
For many Filipinos living and working in the UAE, consulting a fellow Filipino doctor can provide an added sense of comfort and familiarity.
