I think deaths are evrywhere. My best friend lost the wife during delivery at the Agakhan just a few months ago. Yet my niece had the best treatment there during her time

I hope you are not implying that "elective" in the sense of "too posh to push"

In many instances it is elective on serious medical grounds, e.g., recent fibroid removal, emergency CS on last pregnancy, fistula on last delivery etc.
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

Thanks guys for your contribution, i think it's a good a hospital i will personally go there and get the details for her.
She has been seeing a gyna at upper hill medical centre and was just sourcing for a good hospital.

...if she,s insured a C-section will be upwards of 200k.


Kwani there are rates for insured and self-paying patients?

@Mukiha, most hospitals seem to get excited by insurance cards, the tests become more and limitless, dakatari visits mengin sana, at the end of the day, a bigger bill!!!!

Actually, if you are using Aga Khan doctors, they discourage CS unless absolutely necessary. You actually get a hard time trying to get them to put you under CS if you have no problems.

Kweli kabisa. Waz there at a point, pain was too much and wanted CS. The docs blatantly refused.

My daughter was born in Nairobi Hospital and i found their services to be quite good. We couldn't avoid C section which goes for about 200k.....probably because of the insurance part! Like someone has said it all depends on personal experience, i know several couples who have bad ones in Nairobi, Aga Khan and Nairobi Women. I don't think there's any hosp which has a clean record so all you can do is just pray that everything goes well as you make your choice.
