Nita2013: I also recall she lives in a west African country other than Nigeria. The visa was cancelled at the embassy over there. Not to say rules are less stringent in Nigeria, but the response you receive here days it's not illegal to birth in US. Just ensure bills are paid and no recourse to public funds |

Dkbb: I have answered over 35 people on NL, not just once , but back and forth, people here can testify, if I dint answer you it probably cos I must have opened it and forgot to reply immediately or I was busy. None of the doctors have email. I got the hospital number from Google Doctor - (314) 432-3669 Hospital - (314) 996-5000 ask for financials, they would send you a scanned copy of the package i posted on NL. Check my earlier thread for the zoomed in version of the maternity package, you would see a direct number to call the financial councelor. Study their website too, they have alot of information too. I hope this helps. 1 Like |

Praise God with me my people. My daughter's delivery was very successful! Dr. La is a great doctor and the hospital staff were superb. It is a world of difference between the birth of my first at Park Plaza Hospital and this experience. When you walk into WHMC you would think it was a hotel, beautiful. I dealt with two ladies on accommodation issue, though I ended up not using either because I am renting/leasing. But the two Soul Care and Pampered Care I would say are kind and very serious minded. The locations and setting they had did not work for me. I also came here to ask for a car rental service. Again, I ended up not renting a car. Someone was recommended to me. He basically drove me around to where ever I needed to go at an agreed cost which was cheaper than Uber and of course the Yellow Cab. I would use him if I have to go somewhere far and then use Uber for nearer journeys. I met a few Nigerians using the Uber service, one of them prayed for me and baby. Really interesting. There was one Uber driver that carried me from walmart. The guy simply opened his truck and started the journey. He did not even bother to help me load my shopping into his truck. You will meet all sorts! The variety is what interests me. I also met one Mohammed from Afghanistan. If I tell you I was not scared, I will be joking. I simply kept my cool till I got to my destination & just thanked my God! Lol. I got a few discounts. For the Pathology paid like: $70; Hearing Test: $163 (half price); Surgical Assistant: $200. Just ask for a discount, you never know, they may have concessions. Now in the process of getting baby's papers together. I have a question though. I have just called BA to add my daughter to my booking. My question is that I hope I will not have any problems with immigration and whether or not I got a return ticket for her. Please any mum that has returned to Nija via BA, did you have such an experience or not? 12 Likes |

Congratulations! No, you won't have issues with return ticket on BA, I'm assuming you are referring to your newborn? You have excellent reviews of WHMC and Dr La, how much did it cost in total and for which type of birth? Please include pead cost as well. Thank you very much weaseloo: |
