@Iphie26. You will get a cheaper bill from Northside if you ask for 2 days stay for CS. It should come to abt $3600 for mother's bill and i think 700 for baby.

Thanks Moyi for this useful information. I I'll sure consider that option. Please which doctor did you use? Dr Andrews assistant said they ain't taking lab work from outside the US and the fees are expensive.

Thanks so much.

Try doctor valisia Andrews she uses northside and charges less than 2k excluding lab.

Thanks I finally got thru to her and she gave me a bill of 1700 for vaginal delivery and 1900 for cesarean. This does not include-Lab services for 750, panorama test for 495,circumcision for 495. She said she would accept my Nigerian lab results if they in a standard format eg not handwritten. She has booked me for an appointment

Has any one sent medical reports to their U.S. doctor .could you pls help with the format and hospital you used in Nigeria,tests conduct with their costs. This is because my doctor does a lot of writing on my file so I doubt it ll be accepted. Also is it possible to use another doctor for circumcision to reduce the 495 bill stated . Lastly could you help with a pediatrician for


Dear Ify4charm please I'm also using doctor Andrews but I got a mail from one Shannon in her office telling me that Northside does not accept any other lab work from outside the states after I enquired if I could bring mine. Please refer me to who you spoke to about the lab results. $750 is a whole lotta money. Thanks

Just to give back to the house, I have decided to settle for Northside hospital in Atlanta after hopping from Houston to Tennessee .

For CS is $21,000 with 75% discount if you are paying immediately which brings it down to $5475, then you have to pre register online and could also make payment before you arrive the States . I intend paying via form A so as to benefit from the official rate . Was asked to call back next week when my details must have reflected in their account to get the bank details for wire transfer.

Also contacted Dr Andrews and she gave me a quote of $1900 for CS , lab work is $750.

I'm leaving in April, anyone going around that time using Northside?

Good morning everyone and compliments of the season. Pls mamas does anyone have a cost estimate of birthing in (Nashville )Tennessee? Pls help a sister with the hospital name and a good doctor . Merry Xmas.

Hello NL,

So i came in into the US on monday. My flight was smooth until i started have contractions 3hrs to landing.am not even close to due. I was pratically in distress. I prayed my way through. Prophesying and talking to my LO not too disgrace me..lol. i made sure i was composed n didnt alert d flight attendants.i will forever be grateful to God for d miracle

I used wheel chair so it was pretty easy on landing. My poe was a breeze all the docs i carried was nt even checked.i was just told to makesure i paid my bills. I had to go straight to the hospital. I used grady. I was treated for dyhradation even though i had gallons of water on board,stress and preterm labour. I spent d day at d hospital where d contraction was stopped n dy subjected me to numerous tests. I kept wondering if was for free. Baby has behaved.we are both fine.

I await my bill for this treatment. God ia able

Wish you all those coming in safe n uneventful flights and everyone healthy and fullterm babies.

Please what's the cost for using Grady, also assist with the doctors fees too. Thanks
