omohwunmmy: Hello All,

I got to US on saturday morning via JFK. To d glory of God I didnt have much trouble @ POE but I was delayed for about an hr becos the first officer that attended to me said he cant stamp my passport since I told him I was pregnant and intend to have my baby there. He took d passprt to an inner room where I was asked a couple of questions and stamped 6 months.

Am currently in El paso and had my first appointment with doctoresparati today and am looking forward to meeting others who are coming in.
Plenty thanks to everyone who provided informations.

estrellaycocina: From experience I can tell you there is always people from Nigeria in El Paso. When I was there I met several women and doctoresparati also put me un contact (by email) with some other patients. Its very nice because you get to talk to other people that are going through your same experience. You will really like El Paso, as everybody says, their service is excellent.

bigdaddyyo: My wife gave birth to our healthy baby boy 3 days ago. We were quoted 15K USD and negotiated with 40 percent discount. Me and daughter on the way tomorrow to US. God bless us all. Thanks.

My sista d hospitals in dallas are not as cheeap as thier mails joor so anyhow sha it's just God,what they tell you on the Internet is not what you get when you get here I am staying @ frisco sha

Mousepad: Are you worried about BA or immigration? BA is very okay, you shouldnt experience any issues. As for immigration, pray for favour, my sister came to Dallas a week ago and had a very smooth entry unlike my rough experience at Chicago.

forevermine: @ omofred. Please I sent you an email on NL. Kindly respond.

beyunce: Hello dear,
Try medical city hospital, its in Dallas. Or Methodist Dallas Medical Center. I think the former is cheaper. I'm not sure, but you can go check them out.

BnBarbie: Hi dear,
i think pips have posted some stuff about hospitals in dallas. i'd advice you look thru the entire thread from the beginning and u might find something useful. i remember som1 mentioning sumthn about parkland hospital. unfortunately, dats d only thing i remember. good luck.

fabulousmom: @BnBarbie and Mokeju,

I had my baby in El Paso, and I can boldy tell you that my baby's circumcision is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen so far. Just because of the circumsion, I will choose to have my next boy child there, as it seems most people have complaint about circumcision done by other hospitals in the US.

As for the mode of operation, I have been able to deduce that people have little knowledge about how it is done in El Paso. So I'll be pleased to break it down. Doctoresparati is a service-providing group or team that helps to link patients with obstetricians/gynecologists at a very specific and affordable price and at any stage of the pregnancy, no matter how advanced, as well as help arrange a medical center to give birth to your child in, at an unbelievably low price.

It is no news that most hospitals in the US charge bank-breaking hospital bills and ob/gyn fees, not to mention the fact that you cannot estimate how much your bill will be until after you give birth. It is also an open secret that most ob/gyns will not accept medical responsibility of patients who have advanced past 24weeks in pregnancy. Doctoresparati makes everything easy. They offer the whole package at a minimal fee. (Now I'm beginning to sound like a marketer of doctoresparati. Lol)

After contacting doctoresparati, you will be expected to pay a registration fee of $150 to confirm your intentions of using their services, as well as to book an appointment with an ob/gyn for you. During your stay in El Paso, you will be attending pre-natal clinics at Eastside Women Heathcare Center, where you will be cared for by one of US' best ob/gyns. This hospital is well known to specialize in tourist birth (international patients). The ob/gyn assigned to your care will tell you when you will likely have your baby, as well as tips on how not to incur extra hospital bills. The ob/gyn fee is $2,500 for year 2013.

You will be expected to run some lab tests as stipulated by US law before you have your child. The tests are listed on doctoresparati website. You are however allowed to bring in your test results from nigeria, if you have already done those tests in nigeria (but in my opinion, I think it's cheaper to have it in their lab- it cost me only $222.75 for my tests).

You will be having your baby in a much more bigger hospital, Del Sol Medical Center. Everything from your daily room charge, to the care charge, to the labor and delivery, to the drugs (medication) that will be dispensed throughout your period of admission, to the food you'll eat throughout, to the nursery care of your child, to the test and first immunization your baby will receive at birth, to the lab tests that will be done on you in the hospital, has been included in the hospital bill of $2,700 stated on doctoresparati website for year 2013.

I realized that doctoresparati did me a whole lot of good with the hospital bill at that $2,700, because after I was discharged, I called the hospital to send to me a detailed receipt of payment showing a zero balance (it was just too good to be true, so I wanted to be on the safe side). When I got my receipt/bill, I realized that if I had walked into Del Sol Medical Center without using the services of doctoresparati, I'd have been paying a hospital bill of $10,701.05, instead of the $2,700 deal doctoresparati offered.

The bill went like this:

DEPARTMENTAL CHARGE SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION. AMOUNT($)

Ob/gyn. 1,697.00
Labor & delivery. 5,846.00
Pharmacy. 508.05
Lab-main. 2,650.00

TOTAL CHARGES: 10,701.05
TOTAL PAYMENTS: 2,700.00
TOTAL ADJUST: .00

BALANCE: 0.00

If you are having a boy child, be sure to include your circumcision fee of $170. The pediatrician who will come to check your baby's welfare after the birth of your baby will also charge a fee of $210.

In summary, the prices on the doctoresparati website are reliable and genuine.

As for the processing of documents, that's another long story. I'll allow you digest this first before I bring that up. (What a long story! My thumbs are aching.lol)

I hope this helped you all clarify your thoughts about El Paso and the modus operandi.

ciao.
