Everything good? Doctors good, staff good, facilities good, treatment good? No wonder so pricey. But if all is good then worth paying. Afterall all that is the most important for the mother and baby.
INTIMACY said
Congrats.... ...Hey dear, congrats once again. I know about Al Ahli, its a good and huge hospitial with all world class instruments. They are famous for their hospitality & the care given to the patients by the staffs (except some at various labs there), the charges at the hospital is high when compared to other private clinics, but if you have insurance coverage its good.
Anyways, you will get more than what you expect from this hospital, Dr. Najla & Rizivi are also famous there.
Best of lucks, take care of you health....

I was there.... ...yesterday I was at Al Ahli Hospital to dr. Sheena. Communication was a bit difficult between us....., she made an Ultrasound, but it was to early to see heartbeat and so on, she told me nothing about pregnancy,....and next time I will go to another doctor. Does anybody know a good english speaking doctor with good "know how"? Dr. Nebras?????.....
Please help me to choose the right doctor!....
Best wishes.

It´s not easy to find the perfekt one....there are so many Doctors... and i have no idea! Rizivi is leaving soon, so i´ll have no choice to met her. Maybe next time???
Dr. Zeith doesn´t exist in Al Ahli Hospital!
But, very thanks to all of you.

Another option.... ...Dr Amal Badi has a private clinic in the tall building opp. Toys are us (I think it's the Kemco building, formally Gemco!!!), I've been seeing her for years as have lots of my friends. Really nice and down to earth and she also does ultrasound herself on the premises. I would highly recommend her. Tel. 4324349. Her english is perfect and I believe she will attend births at private hospitals but as I had all my kids in UK I can't confirm this, but she saw me before, during and after all my births.

Hey, I had done some ...Hey, I had done some homework. Here are the update:
Dr. Rizvi is now one of the director in Al Ahli. As to Dr Stefan and Dr Samira, both of them are the consultant in Al Ahli. So they should be better than other doctors there as they refer to as specialist.
scmasse said
I have to agree on Dr. ...I have to agree on Dr. Samira as well...she seems to be overshadowed by Dr. Rizvi there but I found her to be a wonderful Doctor.
Good choice weißeOrchidee
*Be aware though, at Al Ahli the person who ends up delivering your baby probably will not be your doctor.
weißeOrchidee said

Maeleka said
Doctor ...Hi,
I read your recommendation about Dr Amal Badi, I need to see a good gynaecologist and would really prefer a European/Western doctor. But would you say this Dr. Amal is totally up to the standard we are used to in the West. Untill now I've had so pretty bad experiences in Doha.
Regards

Maeleka said
Your doctor ...Hi

Hopefully everyone has answered all your queries about Al Ahli. If you need anymore info just let me know. I gave birth there beginning of Jan and I had a very good experience.
Enjoy your pregnancy :)
bumblebee said
cool.. mimi37, I just want ...cool.. mimi37, I just want to know that do you consult the same doctor from the beginning till the end or different doctor in your each visit? And does the same doctor deliver your baby?
Thanks in advance!
mimi37 said
Hi Bumblebee, It ...Hi Bumblebee,
It proved to be difficult to keep the same doctor during the whole time (bearing in mind that I only arrive in Qatar back in November) but to be honest it did not really matter as all the doctors I did see were really good. As for the delivery I had a planned ceasarian (my baby was a in a breech position) so Doctor Rizvik did the operation and everything went well.
I think you can't really require to have the same doctor at birth as he might not be there when you deliver but I would not worry too much about it as everyone seemed to be highly qualified...

There are next to the Villagio (mall). It's quite cheap I think...
If you join the antenatal classes at Al Ahli hospital the midwives might even organised some swimming classes. I did some towards the end of my pregnancy and it was fantastic (nice to feel a bit lighter!!) highly recommended...

It all depends what type of ...It all depends what type of room you required.
Single/VIP or Royal. Single room are great.
I would recommend that you get the price list from the hospital itself as prices go up quite regularly it seems.
I can give you the price for single room from back in January:
Normal delivery + 2 days - 7400
Normal delivery + 2 days + vakkum/forceps = 7900
CS + 4 days = 13800
You should alwasy except to pay more though. My baby had jaundice and we ended up paying 20000.
Hope this helps!

I didn't have a good experience there ...I've heard that Al Ahli hospital is good, but I wasn't satisfied.
I got married a year a go and I've decided to look for a good doctor for
general checkups especially when I get pregnant. And I am trying to conceive
(if anyone has tips about this, I will be thankful)
I've started with the Ahli
Hospital and every time I
go for my appointment with one of the doctors I got transferred to a different
one.
I was not satisfied with any of the doctors. I’ve decided to go to Doha
Clinic and see Dr. Maha.
She is good, but the amount of patients she sees everyday doesn’t help her
to give each patient her full attention.
I had problems with my uterus and Dr. Maha described me a medicine for 2
weeks and next time I went to her for general checkup and asked her if she needs
to check about the problem again, she said no need because for sure the problem
is solved, but my husband & I insisted; she checked and turned out that I
still have the problem.
but she is the kind of doctor that follows up with the pregnant woman from the beginning to the end.
and if your requested, she will deliver your baby.
and she always has round checkups on her patients that just gave birth on a daily basis.
Bottom line I am still looking for a good doctor.

I can only comment on mine and it was pretty good. except maybe for the after care but I don't think it exists in any hospital. You are send home with a newborn and no help or advice...Very different from Europe especially if you don't have any family here but I guess you managed after all being a parent is a lot about instinct!
