Use function to get date from Timestamp like this:

readDate(Timestamp dateTime) {
    DateTime date = DateTime.parse(dateTime.toDate().toString());
    // add DateFormat What you want. Look at the below comment example 
    //String formatedDate = DateFormat('dd-MMM-yyy').format(date); 
    String formatedDate = DateFormat.yMMMMd().format(date);
    return formatedDate;
  }

Use the function when you want it. For example:

Text(readDOB(streamSnapshot.data!["dob"]))

For this you should install intl package. read

Try like this your lastupdate date is not convertime inDate thats why its showing error

DateTime date = DateTime.parse(snapshot.data[index]['lastupdate'].toDate().toString());
print(DateFormat('dd-MMM-yyy').format(date));
