I got doctor's appointment on the spot and did all my medical test and they took me round for maternity tour. Very friendly hospital. But you pay 130 dollars to see the doctor for all those lab test etc.

If you have a previous appointment from MIHS they will accept you and honor the same price as before.

Doctoresparati in El Paso (the add is on this forum) still has the same prices.

Hello All,
I 've been a silent reader of this forum and I 've learnt a lot. In the Spirit of giving back, I would like to share my Houston POE success event.

I left MMA on the 2nd via United airline @34+ wks. My fit to fly was requested for which I gave them. I checked in successfully without any issue. On the airplane I had enough leg room and used the bathroom few times and that helped me to exercise my legs.

We landed safely at Houston around 5:00+am headed to the queue, we were directed to a short queue with only whites. When it's was our turn, the cpb just asked me why I want to have my third child in the US while the first two were born in Nigeria and I simply told her good health care and she stamped us in (hubby, and two kids) 6 months and we headed to custom cos we declared money and food, at agriculture only my indomie onion chicken were trashed and we left.

Had my first appointment today and it went well.
Thanks to all that gave the vital information on this forum, God bless.

Hello,

Pls this question is directed to (ex) Northside hospital mums,Shawbabe....
What other bills were you given after you delivered,other bills like labs and d rest. I hear there's someone that comes in to teach u how to breast feed and they send u a bill...i dont understand.

Can u guys give an estimate of what you paid after the epidural,dr n hospital fees.

I believe I'm speaking for aug/sept mums cc:hotmummy15. Thanks

Hi Shawbabe, Thanks for ur numerous posts on Northside Hosp birth, I will like clarification on the OB/GYN u used, In ur post after birth, you mentioned that that your OBGYN was a female (used "her" all through) but in ur quote above, u said Dr is Dr. Rosenburg. Which exactly do u use? I'm trying to make a decision. Thanks.

I changed to a "her" and she did my delivery. U don't have to use who I used. Every patient is different. U may dislike her coz she no get time to pamper u, but she's my kinda person. I wanted some one to make me laugh. So check what works for u

Of course if u use a lactation consultant, u should expect to pay. I didn't use "extra" services than I paid for, so no extra bill came to me. Lab bills don't come from northside, except they did a test for u there. In my case my obgyn came to northside and delivered my baby.
Labs come from ur obgyn during ur prenatal care. So all Northside did was provide bed for me and baby. Nothing extra than the 3550 I paid.
