She is a different child since having it done and even complained about everyday noises being too loud! It's the best thing we ever did for her. No more illness or speech problems. 2 yrs on and the grommets are still in her ears, although they have usually fallen out by this time.


lol! same Lil miss was a different child, world was turned up too loud for her and we have just blessed Dr B for his intervention with our kidlet ever since. We actually did have the surgery at Belhoul, and were overwhelmed with how beautifully it went. Not just the price difference influenced us (you get Dr Baghat as the surgeon regardless) but it was their personal service at the hospital....from friends experience american hospital can be too busy to offer the same level of before/after care for child and nervous parents, but we were looked after so well at belhoul. Lil Miss's grommets also didnt come out by themselves so she had an additional surgery to remove one...the other Dr Baghat plucked out in his Dr's room without missy moo even being aware of it. All her illness's vanished over night, her speech and developement 'delays' disappeared as soon as she could hear again, wonderment.


true that!

I would recommend two ENT doctors: dr M. Shukker from Dubai London Specialty Hospital and dr S. Janjanin from the ENT clinic in Grosvenor House hotel.

Hello

My dd had her adenoids removed and ear grommets inserted at Medcare hospital Dubai. Before the procedure she had constant ear infections and heavy snoring. They did a audiology test and a x-ray and said that adenoids need to be removed and that she has a slight hearing loss. The doctor specifically said that ear grommets will only be inserted if she finds a glue ear during the adenoids operation and which she did.

The procedure is done as an outpatient surgery. Your child will be able to go home the same day. Looking back I am so glad that we did the surgery. The snoring stopped completely after couple days and recently she had a cold and it went away without antibiotics or ear infections

I can highly recommend Dr Baghat at the Medical International Specialist Center on Al Wasl Rd. He will only operate if it is completely neccesary and he runs all the tests himself. A little camera into the ear drum so you can see what is happening there, the pressure testing, the hearing testing and he's a lovely man. Totally put our wee one at her ease, and retained our confidence in him throughout.

I've read some related posts on here but they are now a couple of years old.
I have been advised that my daughter should have ear grommets fitted as she has enlarged adenoids and has lost 30% of her hearing. The Dr. did not mention glue ear. However, she has never suffered from ear infections etc. and is never sick (touch wood)! I'm not adverse to the operation which I believe is straightfoward and undertaken as an outpatient but I want to make sure I'm doing the right thing for her and in the right place. This diagnosis is from Dr. Nasser at Welcare Hospital. The 2 Drs I saw previously, a GP and an ENT specialist simply wanted to remove the compacted wax from her ear but they did not do an xray as Dr. Nasser did. Has anybody any experience with Dr. Nasser at Welcare Garhoud and with this procedure specifically? How about similar experiences? Any comments/feedback would be appreciated. Don't want to fly back to the UK as that could make the situation worse perhaps? Thanks!
