I developed a massive DVT while I was pregnant (29 weeks) and was admitted to Latifa. The care I received was excellent and I would highly recommend them. I was put on Clexane 60mg every 12 hours for the remaining of the pregnancy and for three months after. On investigations at 3 months postpartum, they discovered that I had Protein S Deficiency and will need to be back on Clexane for the next entire pregnancy (if not before we start trying). That's if we have another one - not looking forward to injecting every 12 hours for at least 12 months (just having to take the injections for flights is bad enough)! I haven't been to another Ob/Gyn here in Dubai regarding this, as I decided to stick with the drs at Al Wasl (Latifa - under head consultant Dr Josphine, the best one and her team of drs). If you do decided to go governmental with your care, all your appointments will be at the hospital itself as you're classified as high-risk. I have been to see Dr Khan,who is a haematologist/oncologist at American Hospital, who was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Hello everybody,
I can see that no one has been here for a long time but I desperately need a good doctor ( name and clinic) that can take care of pregnancy where thrombophilia has already been diagnosed.
Thank you
