About

Dr. Hanadi Abu Ola is a highly specialized Consultant Neurologist and Epileptologist at King Abdullah Medical City (KAMC) in Makkah. With a career at KAMC spanning over 14 years, she is a leading expert in the diagnosis and management of complex seizure disorders. Dr. Abu Ola focuses on providing comprehensive care for adult patients with epilepsy, particularly those with refractory (drug-resistant) cases who require advanced therapeutic interventions.
Her clinical practice is defined by high-level diagnostic precision. She oversees and reports on all types of electroencephalogram (EEG) studies, including outpatient EEGs, long-term EEG monitoring for ICU cases, and long-term video EEG monitoring within specialized Epilepsy Monitoring Units (EMU). These studies are critical for accurately localizing seizure activity and tailoring treatment plans for surgical or medical management.
Dr. Abu Ola possesses significant experience in neuromodulation, specifically the use of Vagal Nerve Stimulation (VNS) for patients whose epilepsy does not respond to traditional medications. In addition to her clinical duties, she is deeply committed to medical education, frequently teaching EEG interpretation and epilepsy management to neurology fellows and residents. Her long-standing tenure at KAMC underscores her role as a cornerstone of neurological services in the Western Region.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
