24-Hour Emergency Clinic Near You in West Amman (Dabouq)
The nearest 24-hour emergency clinic in west Amman is Emergency Plus on Muhammad Ahmad Tarif St., Dabouq: open 24/7, walk in with no appointment.
Call 911 instead of driving for stroke signs, chest pain, severe breathing trouble, unconsciousness, heavy bleeding or a seizure. For fevers, cuts, sprains and child illnesses, come straight in; X-ray and lab are on site.
It's 2 a.m., your child's temperature won't come down, or you've cut your hand cooking and the bleeding won't quite stop, so you type "emergency room near me" into your phone. At that moment you don't need a long list. You need to know three things: is the place really open right now, is there a doctor there, and does this need an ambulance rather than the car. This guide for people in west Amman answers those questions, explains what we treat on a walk-in basis, what to bring and what happens when you arrive.
Where is the nearest 24-hour emergency clinic in west Amman?
Emergency Plus Medical Center is on Muhammad Ahmad Tarif St. in Dabouq, west Amman, next to Khalda and Deir Ghbar. The emergency department and walk-in urgent care are open 24 hours a day, every day of the week, including Fridays and holidays. Patients come to us from:
Dabouq, Khalda, Deir Ghbar, Umm Uthaina, Al Kursi, Sweifieh, Abdoun, Tla' Al Ali, Jubeiha, Shmeisani, Marj Al Hamam
We don't quote drive times here because they change with traffic and where you start from. The simplest option is to open the map link below on your phone and tap Directions for live directions from your location. There is free parking at the clinic, the entrance is wheelchair accessible, and the team speaks Arabic and English.
How do you choose an emergency clinic near you?
Search "urgent care near me open now" and you'll see plenty of places, but not all of them suit an urgent problem in the middle of the night. Before you set off, check four things:
- Truly open 24 hours. Some clinics close in the evening or on Fridays. Look for 24/7, not just "open late".
- A doctor on site. Make sure an emergency doctor will see you when you arrive, not only a nurse or a phone consultation.
- X-ray and laboratory. Many injuries and illnesses need an X-ray or a blood test to find the cause; having them in the same building saves you a second trip.
- Walk-in, no appointment. There's no time to book when something is urgent. Choose a place that sees you straight away.
Emergency Plus ticks all four: emergency physicians on site 24/7, X-ray, ultrasound and a laboratory in the building, and walk-in care with no appointment. For a fuller explanation of the difference between an emergency department and urgent care, see our guide ER vs urgent care: where should you go?.

When should you call 911 instead of driving to the ER?
Distance doesn't matter when a condition is life-threatening: paramedics start treatment on the way, and driving while frightened or unwell puts you and others at risk. The emergency number in Jordan is 911; for the other useful numbers, see emergency numbers in Jordan.
Call 911 instead of driving if there is
- Signs of a stroke: a drooping face, weakness in an arm or leg, or slurred or confused speech.
- Chest pain or pressure, especially if it spreads to the arm, jaw or back, or comes with sweating or breathlessness.
- Severe breathing difficulty: the person can't finish a sentence, or their lips look blue.
- Someone who is unconscious or not responding.
- Heavy bleeding that won't stop with firm, direct pressure.
- A seizure, especially a first one or one lasting more than 5 minutes.
Come straight to our emergency department for
- A deep or gaping cut that has stopped bleeding with pressure but needs stitches.
- A possible broken bone: an obvious deformity, severe swelling, or being unable to put weight on the limb.
- A knock to the head followed by vomiting, unusual drowsiness or a worsening headache.
- A fever in a baby under 3 months old.
- Stomach pain that is severe or getting worse.
Walk-in urgent care the same day
- A fever that doesn't come down with fever medicine or has lasted more than 2 to 3 days.
- A twisted ankle or wrist that may need an X-ray to check for a fracture.
- A cough with fever or phlegm and feeling run down, which could be a chest infection.

What does the 24-hour walk-in clinic treat?
Our walk-in urgent care treats urgent but non-life-threatening illness and injury around the clock, including fevers (see fever: when to go to urgent care), cuts that need stitches (see does my cut need stitches?), sprains and fractures with an on-site X-ray, chest infections, stomach pain, illnesses in children, burns, and insect stings and animal bites. If the doctor needs them to work out what's wrong, they may request blood tests from the on-site laboratory, an X-ray or an ultrasound. More serious cases are seen in the emergency department, also open 24/7.
The physiotherapy clinic in the same building runs 9:00–20:00 every day with no referral needed, which is useful after sprains and injuries once the acute stage has settled. Note that physiotherapy is not a 24-hour service like the emergency department.
What should you bring to the emergency clinic?
- ID or a passport.
- A list of your medicines and doses, or the boxes themselves, plus any drug allergies.
- Any recent reports or test results related to the problem, even photos on your phone.
- For children: their approximate weight and when they last had fever medicine.
If you can't find any of this in a hurry, don't let it delay you: come anyway. If you're visiting or new to Amman, our guide to medical care in Amman for tourists and expats covers what's useful to know in advance.
What happens when you arrive?
When you arrive, a member of the team asks why you've come and checks how urgent your problem is. This is called triage. Patients aren't seen in order of arrival; the most urgent are seen first, and there is no wait for critical cases. So if someone who is sicker arrives after you, they may go in first. An emergency doctor then examines you and may request an X-ray or tests from the on-site laboratory, then explains what they found, the treatment plan, what to watch for at home and when to come back. If you feel worse while waiting, tell the team straight away.
