Led by Dr Lilya Chub, MD, founder, co-owner and Medical Director of Hope Health & Healing Medical Center, and a Dubai Health Authority licensed physician.
Board-certified in family medicine and neurology, with nearly thirty years of international experience as head of emergency medicine, neurology and internal medicine departments, Dr Lilya specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of neurodivergent children, and in integrative medicine for complex and chronic conditions.
Working with a consultant immunologist and a consultant neurologist, both professors in their disciplines, and a clinical dietitian, she looks for the connections between symptoms that are easy to miss when each specialist sees only their own corner. The result is treatment addressed to the whole person, not to isolated symptoms.
"When others say, 'there's nothing more that can be done,' our work is often just beginning." Dr Lilya Chub, Medical Director
We work across conventional medicine and integrative therapies to diagnose and treat the underlying medical conditions that can contribute to autism spectrum disorder, developmental and speech delays.
We are dedicated to investigating the root cause of your family's health challenges and delivering the comprehensive medical care those findings call for.
Our Commitment to You and Your Child
What we hold ourselves to:
Medical treatment, not just management. We move beyond behavioural observation to investigate and treat the biological drivers of autism spectrum disorder, developmental and speech delays, and undiagnosed concerns
Root cause investigation. Advanced diagnostics, read carefully, looking for answers where others have stopped looking
The whole person. Brain, gut, immune system and nutrition, examined together, because they do not fall ill separately
Honest medicine. We tell you what we find, what we can treat, and what we cannot

-
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Developmental Care
‘Mystery’ and Complex Diseases
-
We approach both ‘mystery’ and complex diseases, ASD and developmental and speech delays from a medical perspective, diagnosing and treating the underlying pathology and not treating these conditions as merely isolated symptoms or behavioural problems.
This is why our integrative medicine approach works - because it looks at the whole person - brain, gut, immune system and nutrition - all at the same time, instead of treating behaviour and symptoms in isolation.
By combining the vast international expertise of Dr Lilya with that of our consultant immunologist and consultant neurologist, both professors in their respective disciplines, with our clinical dietitian & nutritionist specialist in one coordinated approach, we can uncover and treat immune imbalances, neuro-inflammation, gut and microbiome issues and nutritional deficits that all influence ASD, development and complex, and seemingly, ’mystery’ diseases.
-
We revolutionise the treatment of autism spectrum disorder, developmental delays and speech challenges, by approaching these conditions as medical challenges requiring comprehensive investigation and precise treatment.
Led by Dr. Lilya Chub, a world-class diagnostician, we uncover and treat the underlying pathologies including neuro-inflammation, immune deficiencies, heavy metal toxicity, cerebral folate deficiencies and gastrointestinal disorders that others have may have missed. “A child who is not making progress, is a child that has not been fully investigated.” Dr Lilya Chub.
-
We serve as medical detectives for patients suffering from undiagnosed conditions, illnesses often requiring exclusion diagnosis, and complex chronic diseases that have, in many cases, defeated conventional medicine.
Through advanced integrative diagnostics and personalised treatment protocols, we provide answers where standard care has failed, treating conditions from autoimmune disorders to toxic exposures and chronic infections.
-
Under the expert guidance of Dr. Lilya's detective-like diagnostic approach - the "Dr House” of Dubai - our integrated team of specialists uncover the hidden connections between symptoms, delivering personalised treatment that addresses the whole person.
We approach both ‘mystery’ and complex diseases, ASD and developmental and speech delays from a medical perspective, diagnosing and treating the underlying pathology and not treating these conditions as merely isolated symptoms or behavioural problems. The ‘why’, not just the ‘what’.

We combine evidence based practice drawn from ‘best in class’ eastern and western medicine.
