A cesarean delivery, also known as a c-section, is a surgical procedure performed for delivering a baby through incisions in the abdomen and uterus. It may be planned in advance of the due delivery date or unplanned after a woman goes into labor, for various complications. A planned c-section is termed as “elective” cesarean, whereas an unplanned operation is an “emergency” c-section.
Whatever is the case, choosing the right healthcare service provider to have your baby delivered is an important decision you should make during pregnancy. At American Hospital Dubai, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive care for both mother and baby from routine prenatal care to managing high-risk pregnancies, births, and post-delivery care.
We have enlisted the expertise of our Obstetrics & Gynecology Specialists who can attend expectant mothers, determine delivery plans, evaluate risks and manage deliveries in a safe environment.
