Thank you ��‍♀️

LadyGuinivere:

Ha babe! And you have said nothing to the kain Doctor? Ok oooo! Well I hope CBP's are reading.

nefertitiram:

@bolded, God has you covered jare! I'm sure everything is awesome with you but I'm considering the practicality.

24hrs is too short a time to be sure everything is fine. BP has to be monitored, most especially. CS is a major surgery, there's a lot to monitor that's why hospitals keep you a day or 2 after, unlike VD. Where I had my baby, they keep you for 4 days, anything can go wrong in a flash!

I've had 2 CS go fine and I was kept just for monitoring, even though I was bored stiff. Standard practice has a checklist for these things. I've seen cases of CS sites loosening within days. It's not just enough to look at it and boot you out after 24 hours.

I still think it is unfair, morally and professionally wrong to have you out after 24hrs after CS. Even in 9ja, they keep you for up to 5 days.

This is not exactly a great review, my opinion sha.

nefertitiram:


Is it me or thus just seems wrong!

What kind of hosp will discharge you 1 day after CS

This is so wrong!

LadyGuinivere:

Azzin ehhhh. I truly don't understand why folks are still patronizing this man.
Is it until something fatal happens? God forbid o.
All the nansense the man is doing, will he do it to americans? No. Are there no other doctors in the kain sugarland?
See this one now, heartbeat reduced. We thank God for mercy o!

Hello everyone, I had my baby a month ago at
Methodist Sugarland and my dr was dr Robertson ( (she is with dr F). At 40.2 weeks I was feeling so much pressure so I called the dr who said I should go to the hospital, at the hospital the dr called the nurses to observe me for 2hrs( I was biled$1870 for that and also $175 to read the ultrasound that was done) after the 2 hr observation I was sent home that there was no patterned contraction.

The next day the pressure increased and I had to go back to the hospital the nurses checked me and I was admitted at 3cm dilation, the next morning dr dama came to break my water and by noon at 6cm dilation a dr Nixon came and insisted on me taking pitocin and I said no at 2pm she insisted on the pitocin n I took it less than 2 mins after she came in to say the baby's heart beat has dropped and she needed to perform a cs. The baby was delivered at 2:22pm.
In all of these my dr never called me once, she made me incur extra $1870 without any justification. I think dr F and his team are too busy and we all need to find alternatives. I incurred unnecessary cost just because they are new to methodist and they don't know how things work there. Please, if you are using methodist Sugarland try and pre register, ask questions about other associated cost and do not go there if you are not in Labour. Based on my recent experience I will not be using dr F's team for my next missionary journey.

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

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.

shrekandfiona:

I don't know about good reviews here o. Only from a few he took their delivery in person.

In my case neither him nor any of his doctors were around to take my delivery. The nurses did and he came about 2 hours later to stitch me up. I was lucky I wasn't bleeding seriously if not, who waits 2 hours after childbirth to be stitched up

His excuse was that my labour was very fast. I told my story here and warned people especially 1st timers to be cautious.

I have endured Dr Fagbohun too much. I saw his bad reviews after I had paid him since so many nairalanders found him pleasant. That man loves money to the detriment of his patient :

How can he book me for induction on Sunday 7pm (this removes 24 hours by 12midnight) and calls d hospital by 8 am that he has csection in another hospital so they should delay me!!! On my Labour bed Am 10cm dilated and 100% effaced. Wish I can sue this guy and I will not have mercy.

Oh applied for b1b2

ccemordi:



The Transcript isn't so bad except for some few lapses spotted

1) When filling your form.. You chose [b]B2 [/b]then why stating vacation first before the main purpose which is CHILD birth.
2) y texas? You gave a good reason but you went too much in details telling him its just the small Pelvic and making his job very easy .. in my opinion could have said bla bla bla and had complication during your first C-section. ( if d V.O is interested in more details . they will ask what type of complication and all)
3) Reapply with you DH only and leave your kid out as a tie
4) Please try and read back on this thread. Especially the Transcripts ( it will better prepare)
4) Be confident, Truthful, Prayerful and good luck

@LadyGuinivere and other gurus could throw more light on this issue.

Good Luck

I'm outta what to say.

Greatie follow what ur instinct tells u o.

Hello , confuse at what is going on with Dr F, a friend paid for oakbend to use Dr F, when it was time for delivery Dr F sent her to Methodist to one of his doctor's.
Can imagine how one feels being referred to a Doctor you have not met .
Have switched to Dr Dama this evening seeing this post.
Thank you all for this forum .

ijeomaobi1:
@greatie,

Me too have observed he is referring us to st Luke!!.
Went to see him today and he kept repeating st Luke even after I told him that I wanted Houston Methodist!! Am not happy with him at all. I did 5 out of those tests and he charged$260 too!. So is that his New lab price?

So wanted to go to Houston Methodist hospital to pay after his appointment and he told me to wait for hm to confirm st Luke? Wat konsan me?

Ohh I heard he has contract with st Luke so that's why. Just like he did with oakbend.

fizzone:
Dear All,

My wife and I were denied USA visa in May, but now she has applied alone for a B1/B2 visa. While I will apply later, Her interview date is early August and EDD is October. Here are my questions.
1. Can I go ahead and also apply prior to her own interview date , this is to enable me get a date early enough for my own interview
2. Hope the B1/B2 Visa she applied for wont be an issue since she is going for Birthing, some one says she should have applied for B2 VISA

Please I need an urgent advise

feddy27:


Hello dear, just calm down ok. whether oakbend or st luke's or methodist, you will be fine. Also, just to point out to you that Dr F might not be there for your delivery so you don't get disappointed if you don't see him. The way the system runs is that if you fall into labour spontaneously, any doctor on call will take the delivery. You can only guarantee Dr F taking your delivery if you have a planned induction or scheduled CS with him. hope this helps with your decision making

firsttymum:
I had my first baby at oakbend... I enjoyed their services. But some people did and didn't. Mostly because their hands were full.

Relax be calm.
Talk to God and tell him what u want. For ur sake all the nurses will b alert and at ur service.
U are not forcing him.
At least the rush on oakbend has reduced so see it as an advantage.
Sweetie pray now so u don't pray tomorrow.
Commit this entire delivery, the Dr's and nurses Inshort all the health care providers into God's hand. Let the Holy Spirit be in charge of ur delivery.
I'm sure you will come and tell us how superb ur delivery went and how lovely and wonderful the health providers were.
