Nutritionists & Dietitians in Dubai City, Dubai

13 businesses listed, 0 Verified or Trusted. Sponsored results are labelled; positions 4+ are ranked by rating, response rate and completed jobs, reshuffled weekly.

Dietitians and clinical nutritionists who give medical nutrition advice are licensed health professionals in the UAE, licensed by DHA in Dubai, DOH in Abu Dhabi and MOHAP in the northern emirates, and they work from licensed health facilities. A coach or influencer giving general diet tips does not hold that licence.

When you need a licensed dietitian

If you have diabetes, kidney or heart disease, a food allergy, an eating disorder, pregnancy or a child with growth concerns, see a licensed dietitian who can work with your doctor. For general weight or fitness goals, a licensed professional is still the safer choice.

What it costs in 2026

  • First consultation: AED 400 to 900
  • Follow-up consultation: AED 250 to 500
  • Three-month programme: AED 1,500 to 4,000
  • Body composition scan: AED 100 to 300

These are typical Dubai prices; in the other emirates prices are often similar or somewhat lower.

Before you book

Ask whether the plan is built around your medical history and blood tests, and how often you will be followed up. Check whether your insurance covers dietitian visits with a doctor's referral.

Check the badge first, then read the reviews and the response rate. Ask for a written quote that names the company on the licence, and pay only to an account in that company's name.

Frequently asked questions

Do dietitians need a licence in the UAE?

How much does a dietitian cost in the UAE?

In 2026 a first consultation costs AED 400 to 900, a follow-up AED 250 to 500 and a three-month programme AED 1,500 to 4,000. These are typical Dubai prices; in the other emirates prices are often similar or somewhat lower.

What is the difference between a dietitian and a nutrition coach?

A licensed dietitian has a recognised qualification and a health authority licence, and can manage nutrition for medical conditions. A coach may offer motivation and general advice but is not licensed to treat medical conditions.

What are the red flags?

Be cautious of promises of fast weight loss, plans that require buying the clinic's supplements or meal products, very low-calorie diets without medical supervision and advice that ignores your medicines or test results.
