Understanding the difficulties behind learning, sleep, and everyday life. Dr. Ashraf Okda provides individual assessment and ongoing care for children, adolescents, and selected adult patients.
Explore the concerns families bring to the clinic. There is space to ask questions, understand what is happening, and take the next step.
Attention, memory & school performance
Difficulty retaining lessons, following instructions, copying from the board, or staying focused can affect confidence as well as schoolwork. Assessment considers learning, development, sleep, and everyday functioning.
Discuss this concern
Persistent bedwetting
Night-time wetting can affect children, teenagers, and adults, including people over 30. We review the pattern, sleep, previous assessments, and other symptoms to discuss appropriate care and any further referrals.
Discuss this concern
Fear & anxiety
Persistent fears, difficulty separating from parents, school avoidance, or withdrawal from friends can make daily life harder. A careful assessment explores the symptoms and their impact.
Discuss this concern
Stuttering that varies
Stuttering may change with the situation or level of stress. Assessment considers speech and language needs, with speech-language or other specialist input where appropriate.
Discuss this concern
Stool leakage (encopresis)
Involuntary stool leakage deserves a supportive, blame-free assessment. Reviewing constipation and other bowel concerns with a paediatric or gastrointestinal clinician is an important part of care.
Discuss this concern
Sleep difficulties
Trouble falling asleep, disrupted nights, or daytime tiredness can affect attention and family routines. Bring a description of the sleep pattern and any previous assessments.

A practice focused on children, adolescents, and the concerns families notice at home and at school.
Dr. Ashraf Okda combines clinical experience with cognitive assessment and neurophysiological tools. His clinical interests include attention and memory disorders, learning difficulties, and sleep disorders.
Treatment planning is individual, with medication where appropriate and follow-up to review response and tolerability. The aim is to support day-to-day functioning, school participation, emotional wellbeing, and quality of life.
Request an appointmentA detailed first visit, an individual plan, and follow-up informed by how you or your child responds.
Discuss your concerns, medical and developmental history, sleep, school experiences, and previous tests. Bring relevant reports and a current medication list.
The clinic uses structured cognitive assessment and quantitative EEG (QEEG). Discuss the purpose and limitations of any proposed test, and the benefits, risks, and alternatives of treatment.
A planned review around two months helps assess progress and adjust care. Earlier review may be needed. Some treatment plans continue for one to two years; duration depends on individual needs.
QEEG does not establish the cause of every attention or learning difficulty and should not be used to diagnose ADHD. Treatment response and timing vary; no outcome or fixed improvement date is guaranteed.
International patients are welcome at the clinic in Alexandria. Ask our team about help coordinating your visit before making travel arrangements.
Travel assistance and interpreters are available on request. Confirm arrangements, availability, and costs with the clinic. English and Arabic consultations are offered; request another language when booking.
The practice primarily focuses on children and adolescents. Selected adult cases are also seen, including persistent bedwetting in adults over 30. Contact the clinic to discuss whether an appointment is suitable.
Yes. Bring your previous results and describe the difficulties that continue. Normal routine tests do not answer every clinical question, but they do not by themselves indicate a hidden neurological disorder. Further assessment depends on the history and examination.
The clinic offers cognitive assessment and QEEG. Ask which tests are proposed, why they are being considered, and how they could inform care. QEEG should not be used to diagnose ADHD; test findings need careful interpretation within the broader clinical assessment.
If stuttering concerns you or affects communication, discuss a speech-language assessment. Variability or worsening with stress does not on its own show that a separate neurological condition is present. Further evaluation depends on the full history and symptoms.
Yes. Persistent bedwetting warrants assessment of possible contributing factors and previous treatment. Available options and expected progress depend on the individual; response and timing vary from person to person.
Response varies with the diagnosis, treatment, and patient. Progress is reviewed and treatment adjusted as needed. Some plans may continue for one to two years, while others differ; the doctor will discuss the expected course with you.
If medication is recommended, the doctor will discuss its expected benefits, possible side effects, alternatives, and monitoring. No medicine is risk-free; follow-up helps review both response and tolerability.
Yes. Ask about flight-booking assistance, airport transfers, hotels, optional sightseeing, and an interpreter when you request an appointment. Please confirm availability and costs before booking travel.
