I am British and I have had 4 children at Hamad hospital, including 1 C-Section. The care is fine and you should feel right at home as most of the nurses are Phillipino. I wouldnt necessary think that if you pay that the care will be any better, not in Doha at least. They have a huge wealth of experience at Women's Hospital and that is why I chose it. The bedside manner is lacking somewhat but I always found the nurses to be very friendly, if you are friendly with them. There is help and advice about caring for your baby but you must ask. It was not offered to me but I found out later they have people to teach how to bathe the baby etc. Good luck.
