Danat Al Emarat Hospital

Dr Zahid is the best doctor, he takes good care of his patients and gives them his full attention. I had an emergency case and he made sure to explain to me everything that I needed to know and more, unlike other doctors that were not willing to give my case enough attention to understand what I was going through and treat it the right way. He is always available (a text away) & willing to make time for his patients and answer questions if there are any concerns. He is the definition of “you are in good hands” and because of him I was able to treat one of my biggest concerns that no other doctor was aware of. I can’t think him enough for handling my case in the best way possible!

Delivery of my first child here was a great experience. Sophia was my midwife and I highly recommend her. Her presence was very calming and she thoroughly explained everything that was happening to me. I trusted her judgment through the whole process. The other midwives that helped were Rebecca, Becca & Emily. They all seemed very sweet & helpful as well. I could tell the midwife staff really cared about my well-being and my baby’s above everything else. Also, I opted to have the epidural & I have to mention that the anesthetist did an excellent job. I felt absolutely no pain during pushing but unfortunately I didn’t get his name

The most incredibly professional, knowledgeable, kind friendly and attentive experience at any hospital ever. Just blown away by how staff cared for my son and reassured all of us during such a scary time of having to have surgery. The nursing staff, doctors, porters, imaging specialists, surgeon, anesthesiologist, maintenance staff including cleaning and security staff were so kind, welcoming, professional, attentive, incredibly experienced and knowledgeable. And the attention to detail and time taken to complete diagnostics to ensure the root cause was discovered as soon as was possible. Including being informed at every step of the way to further yes please give us peace and all the knowledge we needed.

In a bid to find the best care for my pregnancy, I met with 9 doctors at 6 major clinics in Abu Dhabi. I won't name all the clinics here, but Danat al Emarat came out as the clear winner.nnFrom the first moment I walked into Danat, I felt comfortable because the standards were clearly higher than those of other clinics, from the facilities to the premises to the registration process. My OB, Dr. Kiran Jilani, was knowledgeable, professional, and warm. After one appointment with her, I decided to stick with Danat for the remainder of my pregnancy. Dr. Kiran was accessible at all hours for my many questions and had a bedside manner that calmed the many anxieties that come with a first child. The excellent care did not stop with her - I noticed that even the security guards at Danat are well trained, alert, and confident.nnThe birth experience was exceptional - the team of midwives was extremely competent and performed their roles with alacrity. I was able to set up the environment the way I wanted. Birth sometimes feels like something that's happening to you but Dr. Kiran ensured I felt that I had some measure of control. After the birth, doctors, managers, nurses, and lactation consultants came by regularly to ensure I had everything I needed and to teach me the essentials of childcare. Sophia, Carla, and Shirley stand out. Last but not least, I was blown away by the beautiful, modern recovery suite. It had 2 extra en-suite bedrooms for overnight guests, a kitchen, and a large living room for receiving gifts and visitors.nnAll in all, I had an amazing birth experience that solidified Danat as the leader for maternity care in Abu Dhabi.

Positive Unmedicated Lotus Birth Experience at Danat, Abu DhabinnFew days ago I delivered a beautiful and healthy baby boy in Danat Al Emarat Hospital - a birth that I was preparing for months and months; and it was the experience that surpassed my expectations.nAt Danat Hospital my doctor was a very progressive consultant obstetrician from the UK, Dr. Kiran Ather Jilani, who officially took care of me. I liked her from day 1 for her professionalism, humanity. With her I could openly talk about the problems that bothered me without judgment, she immediately was on board of my idea of trying to give birth as raw, natural and unmedicated as possible, always had both time for me and my ideas and suggestions.nI was preparing myselft for months before my labor day. Preparation for childbirth included:n- Knowledge on a healthy and safe lifestyle during pregnancyn- Replenishment of deficiencies and prevention of complications during pregnancy and childbirthn- A psychological attitude that is created through full awareness and understanding that this birth is a normal natural process. And to understand this, it is necessary to study the anatomy and physiology of the female body, pregnancy and childbirth.nnThis was my 2nd time of giving birth at Danat and this time the team, the changes that the management have done are very visibly different and I have to say it is for sure the best place to bring a baby in Abu Dhabi.nnWe came to my birth together with my husband and doula fully prepared hence we were in a great mood. I want to highlight how important it is to enter a maternity hospital feeling festive! Because such an attitude creates a pleasant impression and attitude among the staff.nRemember - how you organize this day is how you will remember it for the rest of your life!nEven if you don’t tell this story of your birth every time, memories will emerge involuntarily in the child’s BDay.nnGreat mood of the couple + mood of the staff = birthday celebration!nHaving arrived at the hospital in a calm state and preparing for childbirth many months in advance, we worked hard to initially launch the production of a “hormonal cocktail” for an excellent birth with the help of positive emotions.nFor a good birth, a woman needs words of encouragement, a warm, reliable hand, a massage and the WDQ (Warm room, Darkness, Quietness).nI was calm, I knew that I had a reliable team behind me, who did everything clearly according to a pre-agreed plan. A special thanks for our wonderful midwife from Melbourne - Melissa - we were blessed to have you with us!nMy birth from arrival at the hospital took only an hour and a half without a single medical intervention, lotus placenta birth; and it was led fully by the midwife without a bunch of doctors that are not needed in this particular case when everything is ok.nI would especially like to note the atmosphere and professionalism of the staff in the hospital - the Danat clinic has progressed very much in terms of obstetric staff and its values ​​​​of promoting natural obstetric care, which is already making a great contribution to the future of the country.nI had my birth plan, I knew exactly what I wanted and the team let me have it and put me on the first place, I felt very empowered - being in charge of my and my baby's health. We had a beautiful labor and post-labor room with cute gift amenities from the hospital that even included a toes and hand prints with a personalized note, picture and card of the baby!nMany thanks to my Dr. Kiran I highly recommend her for both complicated cases and those who are like me trying to deliver as natural as possible, also to the management of the hospital Ms. Jemma Tarr, Dr. Summia Zaher and our incredible midwives squat together with amazing nurses. Thank you for promoting the importance of natural labor and supporting motherhood in the UAE with many of your initiatives - from pregnancy education to lactation!nI want to do it again:)!
