Bad experience at Hamad Hospital

 The poor woman, I feel very sorry for her loss!
So unnecessary!

It helps to USE the brain, as it is given to you not only for balance.

A wife of my friend had similar experiences at Hamad, it was about 5 years ago. Its unfortunate that no one is held responsible in such cases.

they should have complained to the management.

Pure negligence of staff. lack of professionalism. Last thing would happen to any mother. One of my friend also had very bad experience with hamad hospital then she went to her home country. Am wondering when they will change…

In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.

I went there when i came to this country and was 7 months pregnant, the fact that once they know you dont speak there language they treat you like s**t......thank God i didn't tolerate it and went to private hospital.

I wonder what would happen if it was a Qatari woman on that situation??????????????

personally i feel onemust never chance a first delivery here. its too risky. and u dont know what to expect either. hope ur friends ok. pls ask her to get a full checkup outside if she can afford it.

That is so lame..You know a friend of mine gave birth at Hamad hospital, she went on C-section. When they cut her open the stupid doctor cut too deep that hit the baby's chest..
FYI the baby is fine she just had her 1st birthday last Friday.

Another case at Hamad hospital, my baby sitter gave birth on normal delivery. The doctor cut the you know what V_G_N_ ...The scissor hit the head of her baby..Till now you would see the mark on her head.
FYI shes now 7 years old.

Luckily when it was my turn to give birth on C-Section (breech) it went well. Nice doctors and nurses..
Now my daughter will turn 3 yrs old now.

If possible ask them to contact Hamad's Management/HOD as they are 100% responsible for this. This is pure negligence. Good that you shared this piece of information. We would be very careful in our cases. Only in this part of the world, doctors celebrate weekend so happily. Have never heard or seen anywhere else, that in hospaitals such huge as Hamad, doctors are unavailable during emergency. Very serious action should have been taken by your friend's family on this issue.

hospital negligence!!!

my sister in law also had the baby in hamad hospital, iwas there then shes in labor,realy no body care, no doctor, shes in pain,that time im also pregnant and my husband his with us,he cant go to the delivery room,but when he saw his sister laying down on the floor he realy shouted to all filipino nurses,then they said the doctor is busy,but my husband still angry they trying to convinced him to go outside but his still shouting, so the docter came to talk to him,quest what at the end they said that she can go home and come.but my sister in law stayed in hospital after a few hours delivered the baby, can you imagine if you staying far away what you gonna do, and take note those people our qatari.......and they have 2 sister working on that hospital. how about those ordinary people.. whay will happend to them, that why my husband said that i will not have baby there even he still money just to pay for private hospital/,now i have 3 healty baby by the help of DR. MAHA,DOHA CLINIC,SHES GOOD DOCTOR.

But someone has to bell the CAT. Who's that going to be???????????????

you are all talking about WOMEN"S hospital which although is part of hmc is still totally separate from hamad hospital.
complaints can be filed above ay the website address given by tatess.
i disagree with gypsy s drivel about private hospitals giving top notch care...thats a laugh.and exemplifies the adage that "ignorance is bliss".
i whole heartedly agree with kellie sttement about opening up the private sector in qatar. i for one believe it is too highly controlled ahd regulated to be of any real practical value.
although i have absolutely no connection with what happened to your friend, i do feel sorry for what happened to her.i suggest you move through the proper channels to get redressed.feel free to pm me if you need help in this matter.

do it right - the first time!

this incident should not happen again. this is something avoidable when there is proper care and training. Hamad women's hospital please wake up. the expatriates are getting scared here. not all can afford private hospitals. yes we can file cases but there should be an action. is there any law that protects medical malpractice? whom shall we trust in this matter?

hmc must hire experienced, well-trained & intelligent staff (esp doctors) to help sick patients.

Totally agree with coolquietman, the private hospitals the ive experienced are a joke, especially the Dr's who dont seem to know what they are talking about.
The childrens emergency centre has been the best so far for my kids..
Alexa is spot on too, if you find a doctor who knows what they are doing, then you are lucky.
Personally, planning for another child has gone out the window as long as we are living in Q, as i dont even trust taking my kids to the Dr for the most basic things, let alone them handling a pregnancy.
