Hope Health & Healing, Dubai. Speciality medicine for neurodivergent children and unexplained illness.
Before you are asked to believe anything, watch us explain ourselves.
Thirty-seven minutes is a strange thing for a clinic to ask of you. That is rather the point. Six films and a fully referenced article, made for families who have been told what their child has, but never why. Nothing to sign, no email asked for, in English with Arabic subtitles. When you have watched, you will know whether we are the right place for your family.

Led by Dr Lilya Chub, founder 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 three decades 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, the so-called ‘mystery’ illnesses.
Working with a consultant immunologist and a consultant neurologist, both professors in their respective 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 and complex ‘mystery’ conditions.
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, analysed with care, 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

What Makes Hope Health & Healing Different?
…and why families travel from over 25 countries to meet with us
-
The first: autism, ADHD, and developmental and speech delays in children.
The second: 'mystery' conditions, undiagnosed and untreated, in guests of any age.
Different guests, the same discipline: find the cause, and treat the cause.
-
We approach autism, developmental and speech delays, and complex, unexplained illness from a medical perspective: diagnosing and treating the underlying pathology, not managing symptoms in isolation.
Integrative medicine means the whole person is examined as one system, brain, gut, immune system and nutrition together, because that is how they work in a person.
The why, not just the what.
-
We treat autism spectrum disorder, developmental delays and speech challenges as medical conditions deserving comprehensive investigation and precise treatment, and we look for what can sit beneath the diagnosis: neuro-inflamation, immune deficiencies, heavy metal toxicity, cerebral folate deficiency, gastrointestinal disorders.
"A child who is not improving is a child who has not been fully investigated."
Dr Lilya Chub, Medical Director. -
For guests of any age with undiagnosed and untreated conditions, we work as medical detectives: testing, investigating, ruling things out, following the evidence wherever it leads.
Autoimmune disorders, chronic infections, toxic exposures, illnesses that can only be reached by ruling everything else out.
Undiagnosed does not mean unanswerable.
-
Complex cases usually travel from specialist to specialist, collecting one opinion at a time. At Hope, the team works the same case together:
Dr Lilya Chub's international diagnostic experience, a consultant immunologist and a consultant neurologist, both professors in their fields, and a clinical dietitian.
Hidden connections between. symptoms show themselves when the people looking for them are in the same room.
