Even though I agree with most of what you have said the bolded is seriously biting me.

A human being should know when to say no.
The greed for cash can't be compared to human life at all.
God help us all

In as much as I understand what Nef was trying to say, I just joined nairaland today and I got my Visa since 25th July with my personal researches, didn't even know about this thread. I also got d hospital and Dr F through personal research too. I won't wonna fall into same pit after being warned and how am I to research about the Doctors I don't even know?? I believe every1 is here to learn, so pls allow us learn as Lazilly# as possible, other than paying so much and still putting ur life at risk..

Oh my God. This is really bad... He told me no one has sued him before but I think he needs and will soon to be sued. He probably feels he can get away with negligence because we have kind heart

firsttymum:
I'll use myself as an example

My placenta refused to detach
I had pph
I was transfused 4 pints of blood.
My baby had cord round his neck
There was shoulder dystosia

Oh yes all of the above happened to me

Now tell me if I was using someone like Dr F and I fell into labor and a nurse took the delivery.. Pls what wld have happened.

ijeomaobi1:
Beloved mamas,

Me don't like all this comment stating Dr F is human as such should be allowed to continue his inhumane service!!!! If I didn't research as some stated, must he also not be diligent??

No problem. It is Dr F that will come and advertise that he doesn't want Nigerian patients again. I even wanted a Dr Rosalind or so as she has the best review among his team, na so he vex that am insulting his expertise.

Kontinu to support bad things Nef and feddy27. Diaris God and dis is the period of change

He's joking with his license. Nogen's friend had a horrible experience with him, I don't know why that woman didn't sue! That was where I gave up on him and still maintain I blame the herd mentality of people flocking to him. I hope after now, his ratings drop and he sits up.

I even remember when shrekandfiona came wit her lamentation, some people opened new monikers to come to his defence. I'm even suspecting they may be his nurses! It was so hilarious.

topefola1:
Good evening great mums and mums-to-be, please I would like to ask for your opinions about my passport issue to make my trip smooth.
I got my US visa last year while I was still using my maiden name in my passport. However, I remember vividly that I put my marital name while answering the question of 'Do you have any other name apart from the one on your passport' kind of.
Fast forward, I have a new passport now bearing my marital name but my visa is on the old one.
Thus my question: Do I need to inform the US embassy of this change of name or just go with the two passports and my marriage certificate as evidence?
Note: the visa was issued in UK when I was a student and I used it in December for 2 weeks.

Thanks in advance.

If he was a white man, his conscience would av judged him. Bt he's Nigerian, wetin you expect?

nefertitiram:


Hold up!

Sorry for your bad experience. I'm also not his fan but we should understand he is a human being. He cannot divide himself na.

People come to Nairaland with no idea where to start from. The first think they see is Dr.F, houston and stop the research there and run with it. They contact him and he accepts, who doesn't like the cash? Both active and ghost members. What do we expect the man to do?
How do we know if there are cheaper hosps out there if we don't rsearch?

If you check this entire thread you will see "who else is going to houston, I'm using Dr F, I'm using Dr F, ' somebody will manage to research another Doc, then they flood there, I'm using Dr.Dre, Dr. Who, Dr. Doolittle. No one wants to take the extra mile.

I think it's a lazy approach and the more we don't wanna work hard for our health, the more the strength of these doctors will fail us.

I used to blame Dr.F before but now, I just blame the herd mentality.

Lemme apologize in advanced if I sound condescending.

SlowlybtSurely:
I don't even understand why anyone will make excuses for Dr F's laxity. What is wrong is simply wrong! Whether the mamas that chose to use him are lazy or not doesn't come into play here.

He wasn't forced into accepting these patients and moreover, he is not running a charitable organisation. He is paid handsomely for that job, so he should do it well!

When a Dr is fully booked, isn't it reasonable to stop accepting patients? But no, his greed will not let him.

I'm sure he wouldn't do this to his US patients. He knows most Nigerians wouldn't bother suing his a$$.

nefertitiram:


Lolz!

Here's how to research.
There's Zocdoc, there's healthgrades. Just input the area you want to deliver and search using obgyns. The names that pop up you can research on each, call the clinic and make informed decisions.

Also, if you have decided to use oakbend just google obgyn doctors oakbend or search on the hospital website for affiliated obgyns.

Better still, invest N1500 recharge card, call the hosp and have them recommend an obgyn the you can research on them online.

Internet has made life easier, unlike one mama that wore bathroom slippers and was looking for hosp everywhr in chicago in the name of researching

MzYemie:
That's nice. cOngratulations ... Lucky u sef, SMH for Emirates I even had to beg for a bottle of water which they even refused to give me saying they can only give me 2 small cups of water. Terrible

nefertitiram:


You don drop name now. Next thing Dr. Rosa go become overbooked. Una never know these nairaland people!

I no support Dr. F o! Two doctors I'm totally against. Dr. F and Dr. A (he who must not be named )
We have been down this road before but they drowned our voices. Sebi it has reared it's ugly head again. Make una kuku pay me to research for una.

Virtuousdiva:
Just seeing all these things makes me so sad. I am not about to bash una Nigerian doctor in America but abeg try and enter health grades and search for someone else.If the location or hospital is your choice,then look for another doctor within that hospital under healthgrades. Some one has admitted that its laziness that causes "she and some people" to go for the easy hospital and doctor so you are on your own

I am in a helping mood now. I have friends that used other doctors in different locations who have given me information on them because they don't fill like joining Nairaland so somebody that knows should tell me how best to post those affordable hospitals here without making it look like advert.
Ps:Na help i dey help oo,those who know me and have read my past posts know where i had my last baby..I have also paid more than 12k for delivery before stumbling on this NL so i don't have business with advert. Nobody should assault my pm oooo.. Just tell me how best to put it out here for public consumption.

simababe:

Immediately I boarded I was given a bottle water as big as the big Eva water n a cup in case I needed water urgently, another came to rub my belly askin if I'm birthin a boy or girl, if I wanted xtra tea or somtyn. Anyways I was first delayed to lagos airport wen I was told to go do fit to fly n I got there only for them to tell me I can't be given cos I'm ova 30wkz, so qatar officials said it's cos 3 preggy women had complications a day b4 my flight n the airline was charged 5dollars each per person cos of that. I ended not doin the airport's fit to fly cos I told dem they shud av notified me first nt after doin my hospital's own n filling medif form. Anywayz in all, all tnks to God.

bouqounmie:
Hello dear. Hope you're settling down well. I will also be flying with Qatar later this month. Please which of the Forms did you fill? Saw a medif form and a pregnancy certificate form. Was thinking the medif form was for complicated pregancies.
Thanks.
