Hey mommies or moms to be,
this is my second pregnancy in Dubai, I gave birth at City Hospital last time, and honestly I loved it and I loved my Dr, but this time I've looked at the American hospital package and its SO much better than city.
Has any one got any good Drs at American they can recommend me?? or are using for their pregnancy?
I see there's 4 on the site with amazing Cvs but its a very hard decision after loving my old dr,
I'm 24 weeks so I need to decide now, ill do the tour next week and then the Dr swap.
Thanks guys appreciate all the help : )

Another vote for Dr Braithwaite. I'm currently with her for delivery of my second baby. She was AMAZING first time round and I didn't even think about going to anyone else. Midwives were great at the American, and I didn't have any problems with the nurses on the maternity ward either, although they weren't as friendly as the midwives. Food sucks, but you can just have it delivered from anywhere else, so it's not a problem. Hope you find a doctor you are happy with. x

I've said it many times before on this forum but 'll say it again, I was very happy with my experience giving birth in the American Hospital. I was with Dr. Mia Branch and she was great. Midwifes (let's face it, 90% of your labor you won't see your doctor) were fab as well and the rooms etc. are very comfortable. The only things I didn't like were the food (eeeeuuuugh) and the nurses in the maternity ward (where you move to after baby is born). They were short, not friendly, came in at ridiculous hours etc. You'd think they would know that new mothers/parents are in such a vulnerable emotional state that they'd make an extra effort to be really nice, reassuring etc. but no. Either way, I still had a positive experience and if we're still in Dubai when we decide to try for #2 I'll definitely go to AH again.

I had Dr Braithwaite both last time and I've gone back to her this time. She has been nothing but fabulous. Easily contactable by email too if I have any questions. Hope that helps. L x
