The practice is about 25 to 30 minutes by car from Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT) outside peak hours, along Sheikh Zayed Road, with parking at the practice.

Sheikh Zayed Road from JLT, or the Red Line and a taxi

JLT sits on the inland side of Sheikh Zayed Road, across from Dubai Marina, so the drive to the practice in Jumeirah is one long run toward the city: roughly 14 to 17 kilometres of motorway, then the final stretch through Al Safa and along Al Wasl Road. Outside peak hours it usually takes about 25 to 30 minutes. At weekday rush hour allow about 40 to 50 minutes, and a little more if you set off around 6pm, when traffic on Dubai's working days peaks. On arrival there is parking at the practice.

Without a car, start from one of JLT's two Red Line stations, DMCC or Sobha Realty, whichever is closer to your cluster. Trains toward Centrepoint reach Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall in eight stops from Sobha Realty or nine from DMCC, with Financial Centre one stop further. Both are less than three kilometres from the practice in a straight line, and because no Metro or tram line runs to it, a short taxi or ride-hailing trip finishes the journey. The tram stop across the footbridge from DMCC serves the Marina, JBR and Al Sufouh rather than Jumeirah, so it does not help with this trip.

Appointments around a DMCC working day

JLT's towers are home to the DMCC Free Zone, and if you work in one of them, the practical question is how a dental visit fits around office hours. A lunch break is tight for anything except a short review, because the round trip alone is close to an hour outside the peaks. A first consultation, which is unhurried and runs 45 to 60 minutes, sits better in a late morning or early afternoon, or on a day off. If your working week leaves Saturday or Sunday open, a weekend appointment takes office hours out of the question altogether.

The clock helps if you use it. Weekday traffic in Dubai is lighter between about 10am and 1pm and eases after 8pm, while it peaks between about 5pm and 7pm. We're here every day from 9am to 9pm, so a late-morning slot, a later evening one or a weekend morning, when the roads are lighter again, all make the run along Sheikh Zayed Road easier. The drive back follows the same pattern, so a visit that finishes before about 5pm, or after 8pm, keeps the return to JLT easier too. If a tooth starts to hurt during the working week, call or message early in the day; same-day urgent assessment is available within opening hours.

A second opinion without losing a working day

If you have been given a treatment plan and want it reviewed before you agree to it, one consultation is usually enough to understand your options. Bring the written plan, any X-rays you have or can ask the clinic that took them to send as digital files, and a note of what you were told and what you are unsure about. A second opinion is a normal step before significant treatment, not a judgment on the dentist who made the first plan. If you are partway through treatment elsewhere, add a note of what has already been done, so the review starts from where things stand.

Nothing has to be decided on the day. You leave with the options in writing, to read properly back at your desk or at home before you come back with questions. Booked for a late morning or early afternoon, the whole visit, including the drive both ways, takes roughly two hours out of the working day.

The focus is unhurried, conservative care, planned in writing and scheduled around a working week, whether it is a check-up, a child's first visit, or an ageing filling.

  • DMCC free-zone and tower-office professionals who need appointments that fit around the working day
  • Young families across the lettered residential clusters wanting one dentist for the whole household

Common questions

Questions from Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT) residents

How long is the drive from JLT, and is there parking?
Usually about 25 to 30 minutes outside peak hours, straight along Sheikh Zayed Road toward the city, and about 40 to 50 minutes at weekday rush hour, with parking at the practice itself.
Can I come in during a lunch break from a JLT office?
For a short review, possibly; for a first consultation, it is tight. The round trip is close to an hour outside the peaks and a first consultation runs 45 to 60 minutes, so a late-morning or early-afternoon slot with about two hours set aside works better.
Which Metro station should I use from JLT?
Whichever of DMCC or Sobha Realty is nearer your cluster. Take the Red Line toward Centrepoint and get off at Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall or Financial Centre, then finish with a short taxi or ride-hailing trip, as the practice is not on a Metro or tram line.
Is an after-work appointment realistic from JLT?
Yes, we're here until 9pm. The difficulty is the drive rather than the appointment: leaving JLT between about 5pm and 7pm puts you in the evening peak, which eases noticeably after 8pm, so a later evening slot is usually the easier choice.
What if a tooth starts hurting while I am at work in JLT?
Call or message as early in the day as you can and describe what is happening. Same-day urgent assessment is available within opening hours, every day from 9am to 9pm, and a late-morning or early-afternoon drive from JLT avoids the peaks.
What happens at the first visit?
An unhurried consultation (45 to 60 minutes), a full-mouth examination, a discussion of your goals, the evidence behind any options explained plainly, and a written plan before any treatment.
Does Dr. Khalid speak English and Arabic?
Yes. Dr. Khalid is fluent in English and a native Arabic speaker (Iraqi and Khaleeji dialects), and treats Dubai's residents and international community.
Can I come just for a second opinion?
Yes. Many patients come specifically to have an existing plan reviewed. Dr. Khalid examines the tooth, looks at any records you bring, and sets out the options in writing, starting with the smallest and most reversible, so you can decide with the evidence in front of you.
How do I contact Dr. Khalid?
Call directly on +971 55 764 3300, message on WhatsApp, or request a callback from this page.
