I believe that Hammad Hospital is very safe but when I had to chose I went for Al Ahli for the 3 following reasons:
- my husband could be in the delivery room with me
- I knew that I will get what I ask against the pain (not so sure it is the case in Hammad)
- the environement is much nicer and you do not really feel in an hospital in Al Ahli (less stressfull for me)

I do not regret my choice but I have to say that I was disapointed by Al Ahli. One of the reason is that I delivered in the night and they did not had enough staff to handle all deliveries they had and also the qualified staff was gone. But we managed to call back the doctor.

In both case, Hamad and Al Ahli I believe you are in good hands...do not stress. Visit the 2 places and make your choice also with the place you feel the most confortable with.
