I have my first appointment with Dr Jennifer Kasirsky at Welcare Hospital in a couple of weeks. If anyone has any insight on her and the the care given at Welcare I would really appreciate it. I am due in February and everything seems so different here compared to Canada so I am quite anxious :(

I've just gave birth at the american hospital using Dr Braithwaite, I can't praise her enough. She is approachable, funny and is completely honest with everything that's going on. I had a traumatic birth and she was amazing through it all - go see her!!

Dr. Yuliya Mikhail is an excellent doctor! You will never feel rushed during appointments and she explains everything in detail. She used to be with City Hospital, but she moved to Cooper Clinic along Al Wasl last June 2011.

Dr. Rosalie Sant at Primavera. Do a search and you'll find her contact details. She was fantastic and I can't say enough good things about her!!

Youre in good hands CG. There were times I went once a wk for something or another I was (mistakenly) concerned about. You can show up if youre already a patient and you call/email first. And Carol (her nurse) always calls back same day. One thing I will say is that usually there is a wait. Its mostly because she really takes her time with her patients. Also, she works A LOT and often has to run out for deliveries. Was planning natural birth and had to have an emergency C...was very, very lucky to have her.

I'm seeing Dr. Helena Taylor too and so far so good although I've only had one appointment. I liked that she gave me her mobile number and made it clear that I was too call her anytime I had a question or concern. I also had to reschedule an appointment and when the appointment desk told me she was fully booked for a few weeks they said they would get her nurse to call to me. Her nurse called me back within half an hour and rescheduled me for two days after my original appointment:) Also, she was right on time for my first appointment which I appreciate because DH took time from work to accompany me and I don't want him sitting around waiting for half the day. She kept reminding me to relax and ENJOY being pregnant which I thought was really nice since I'm a Virgo and tend to worry and overplan everything. Also she said if there are any complications which I need to go to the hospital for to just let the staff know at City Hospital that I am her patient and that they will call her and she will attend. Comforting to know. This is my first so I need a bit of handholding.

I saw several doctors here before deciding on one. Dr Helena Taylor just delivered my little girl last month at City. I CANNOT speak more highly of her. Amazing...woman, doctor...really knows her stuff. Hope to have my second one with her:)

We have just had the most splendid care from Dr Jennifer Kasirsky at the Welcare Hospital. I didn't realize she practiced as a gynae in her spare time, we met her late on Friday night as a surgeon in the Emergency Dept when daughter was admitted for the removal of a huge ovarian cyst. I cannot speak too highly of her. Nor of the entire emergency gynaecology and cardiac team at the Welcare Hospital. Hey there. I just delivered 10 days ago at city hospital and I cannot recommend it highly enough. My doc was azizunissa, and she was great, as were the nurses and midwives. Had to have an emergency c due to foetal distress and felt so taken care of and comfy Thru it all. The only hitch isgettin an appointment with the dr the first time arnd , once get that they generally schedule you in every month . Have heard lovelythings abt dr elsa as well ! Best of luck with it all !!
