I'm very satisfied with this medical clinic. I had my first pregnancy screening here. It was affordable and very professional. The radiologist was welcoming, kind, and made the experience great.
Aizhan Tokmanbetova
Hurt my knee Friday night and got an MRI appointment Sunday evening (booked Sunday afternoon). Waited about 2 minutes and was done in just over 30 minutes. The team was amazing, friendly and efficient.

Dr. Osama's team was gentle and amazing. After a bad experience elsewhere, my pelvic exam here was much more professional. Great report and very precise.

Infectious disease screening is a cornerstone of preventive healthcare, enabling early detection of conditions that may carry no visible symptoms for months or even years. HIV, hepatitis B and C, syphilis, rubella, and measles are among the most significant communicable diseases worldwide, and routine testing is essential for protecting individual health, preventing onward transmission, and meeting regulatory requirements in the UAE. Whether you need a premarital screening panel, a visa medical clearance, or a confidential sexual health check, accurate laboratory testing provides the clarity and peace of mind you need.
The United Arab Emirates mandates premarital screening as a legal requirement before issuing a marriage certificate. This mandatory panel tests for HIV 1 and 2, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C antibodies (HCV), and syphilis (VDRL), alongside rubella immunity testing for female applicants. The premarital screening programme was introduced to protect couples and future children from preventable infectious and genetic conditions. At DCDC, we perform the full premarital panel with results typically available within 24 hours, enabling couples to meet legal deadlines without unnecessary delays.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Infectious Disease Screening in Dubai.
HIV 1 and 2, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C antibody (anti-HCV), syphilis (VDRL/RPR), and thalassaemia/sickle cell screening. For female applicants, rubella IgG immunity testing is also required.
Fourth-generation HIV tests detect both p24 antigen and HIV-1/HIV-2 antibodies with sensitivity exceeding 99.5 percent after 45 days. The window period is 14-21 days.
HBsAg indicates active infection (present in blood, potentially infectious). Anti-HBs indicates immunity from vaccination or recovery (above 10 mIU/mL is protective).
VDRL is a screening test that can produce biological false positives in pregnancy, lupus, and certain viral infections. All reactive results undergo confirmatory treponemal testing (TPHA or FTA-ABS).
Rubella during the first trimester causes congenital rubella syndrome (deafness, heart defects, cataracts, intellectual disability) in up to 90 percent of exposed foetuses. Rubella IgG confirms immunity from vaccination or past infection.
