    I delivered at City Hospital with Dr. Elsa. Lovely doctor and excellent staff.. most of friends have delivered there...

    A friend of mine delivered at Al Rafa Dubai (Kuwait Street) last year. Are you talking about the same one? She was quite happy with the hospital.

    city hospital is near wafi.. oud metha. bur dubai in Healthcare City.

    I have mailed you but adding details for others :)

    Yes we had done the NT Test. it is not compulsory, we were given a choice by the doc. We did it as we felt this better prepares you for any complications. It also helps as reference when you do the anomaly scan later. During the anomaly scan(21 weeks I think) there was a hole in the heart of the baby(this is regular in fetal stage and disappears by 28 weeks) the tech there was referring us to invasive procedure like amniocentesis. However, since my NT test was clear, the doc ruled out any problems. baby is fit and fine :)

    I have insurance from my office so doc visits were covered but it has a limit. So for delivery, I was covered under my husband. Cost vary from 16k for natural to 22-25k for c-section. Don't know if they have any delivery packages.

    Hope this helps.

    Hello

    Dr. Sejal and Dr. Jayacey are the main gynecologists at Al rafa Medical center, Al Mankhool..
    Dr.Jayacey is from CMC, Vellore and an infertility specialist too..

    Both are equally good.
    All the best..
