In the capital of Russia, even after the reforms, when the number of maternity hospitals and perinatal centers decreased by at least a third, there are still 4 centers and 27 hospitals. Which one to choose is a difficult question. Therefore, we have compiled rating of maternity hospitals in Moscow in 2019, according to reviews of women in labor. The "people's" rating from the site 7ya.ru is taken as a basis, supplemented by opinions and recommendations from the sites otzovik.com and irecommend.ru.
10. Maternity hospital number 15
Underground: Vykhino, Novogireevo.
Address: st. Veshnyakovskaya, 23.
Phone: (495)375-31-00.
One of the oldest maternity institutions in Moscow - it was founded back in 1937. The maternity hospital specializes in a difficult problem - miscarriage, childbirth in women with low body weight and nursing premature babies. However, you can also go there during a normal healthy pregnancy, if there are free places.
The base at the maternity hospital is good, in addition to the "simple" maternity ward, there are opportunities to help both the mother and the child if something went wrong. All parameters are monitored for women in labor, ultrasound and CTG are regularly done. You can order a "paid" delivery - a separate ward, hydromassage, fitball - or conclude a contract with "your" doctor or midwife.
Doctors of the ambulance do not take women in labor there, apparently due to the specialization of the maternity hospital in premature pregnancies. So those who wish have to make their way there on their own. But unlike other maternity hospitals, it is relatively free, quiet and calm there.
9. Maternity hospital №27 at the GKB im. Spasokukotsky
Underground: Voikovskaya, Petrovsko-Razumovskaya.
Address: Koptevsky Boulevard, 5.
Phone: (499)154-15-73.
The history of the maternity hospital goes back more than half a century - it was founded in 1947, and since then every year more than 3,000 women have been giving birth there. It was recently reopened for the second time, and in fact only the shell remained of the old building - it was completely reconstructed, underwent major renovations and now meets the latest medical standards for the management of pregnancy and childbirth.
The maternity hospital has a capacity of 100 beds, wards for one or two people and is equipped with the latest technology. By the way, for the sake of the necessary medical procedures - analyzes and examinations - a woman in labor does not have to go anywhere; everything takes place in the ward.
The maternity hospital specializes in the "natural" course of pregnancy. And all medical procedures are performed only with the consent of the patient. There is a possibility of partner delivery. The women who have been there note the friendly attitude of the doctors and staff.
8. Maternity hospital number 1
Underground: Glider (1st carriage from the center), 5 min. on foot.
Address: st. Vilisa Latsis, 4.
Phone: 495-1101.
The maternity hospital specializes in pregnancy management and childbirth for women suffering from diseases of the cardiovascular system, poor blood clotting and diseases that negatively affect the connective tissue.After the reconstruction, completed in 2016, the maternity hospital is designed for 250 beds, the capacity of the wards is from one to three people, each ward has its own sanitary space. There is a possibility of partner delivery. There is also a contract department with 16 beds.
Despite the scientific basis (the department of obstetrics and gynecology of the Sechenov Academy is based in the maternity hospital), the attitude of the staff leaves much to be desired. Women in labor note rudeness, reticence and, in some cases, rudeness of service personnel, nurses and doctors.
7. Maternity hospital №4
Underground: Kaluzhskaya, Novye Cheryomushki, Prospect Vernadsky.
Address: st. Novatorov, 3.
Phone: (495)936-1096.
Built in the early 1980s, this tall, modern-looking building hosts over four thousand births every year; it is believed that almost 6% of the city's population was born in maternity hospital No. 4.
More than 600 people work in the building, from nurses and midwives to doctors. True, in general, the impression of women in labor from the hospital is greatly spoiled by the crowd, the flow of patients and the feeling of the conveyor belt.
The maternity hospital has many opportunities - from individual management and pregnancy with subsequent monitoring of the growth and development of the baby, training courses for parents up to all the necessary tests (including even genetic tests, not to mention the usual ultrasound).
6. Maternity hospital at City Clinical Hospital No. 70
Underground: Novogireevo.
Address: Federated Ave., 17.
Phone for information: (495)305-6081.
Among the participants in the rating, this maternity hospital is a beginner; it was opened just ten years ago. It has several departments specializing in the management of pregnancy from the very beginning (consultation and diagnosis) to a happy event (maternity and postnatal ward).
A pregnant woman and a woman who has given birth can receive consultations from narrow specialists - in addition to the usual neonatologist, there is also a psychologist, a physiotherapist, and so on. It is possible to treat and monitor women with pregnancy pathologies and nursing newborns.
But the condition of the hospital building leaves much to be desired. Many women in childbirth noted that the building would be useful for repairs. And the environment - at least an acceptable level of comfort. For example, beds lack lift handles and bathrooms have no rubber rugs.
5. Maternity hospital at hospital No. 15
Underground: Vykhino, Novogireevo.
Address: st. Veshnyakovskaya, 23.
Phone: (495)375-31-00.
If a woman suffers from heart disease, most likely, the attending physician will advise her to contact one of the best Moscow maternity hospitals at City Clinical Hospital No. 15. He specializes in pregnancy and childbirth for women with cardiovascular pathologies.
They begin to conduct a "problem" pregnancy from the very beginning - there is a separate hospital in the maternity hospital, where a woman can undergo a course of preparation for childbirth using a special method developed specifically for such cases. And if something goes wrong, then the maternity hospital has all the possibilities for emergency care for the mother and child, including a ventilator.
Free wards are designed for 2-4 women (one bathroom for two boxes), postpartum wards - for two mothers with children in one ward. Contact - for one woman, there is a possibility of the presence of a husband or another relative. Anesthesia is paid there, and the question of which one to use, the doctors first discuss with the woman in labor.
In general, the maternity hospital is focused on free childbirth without excessive enthusiasm for medications. The women noted the comfortable conditions of stay, clean and comfortable wards, but agreed that the food there was very poor. And with the medical staff, how lucky, although in general the hospital is more or less friendly towards its patients.
4. Maternity hospital number 3
Underground: Slavyansky Boulevard.
Address: st. Nezhinskaya, 3.
Phone: (495)442-2289.
A good maternity hospital in Moscow, located in one of the "cleanest" areas of the city, next to the park. In this large modern-looking building, about six thousand children are born every year.In general, one woman in labor is led by at least nine specialists - from a midwife to a resuscitator.
There is a department for “difficult” patients with pregnancy pathologies and chronic diseases. Individual birthing boxes are equipped with the latest medicine. When delivering childbirth, doctors adhere to popular methods, including vertical childbirth (at the request of the woman in labor). In case of complications, the hospital has resuscitation wards for the mother and the child. Also, if a woman in labor is in a difficult financial situation, there is an opportunity to get some tests and advice for free.
Judging by the reviews, this is practically the only maternity hospital in Moscow where they feed normally. So if a woman in labor likes waffles, tomatoes and cutlets, she knows where to turn. True, the impression of good food is spoiled a bit by the cramped conditions in the postpartum ward - a ward for three people measuring only 3 by 5 meters.
3. Maternity hospital at City Clinical Hospital No. 29
Underground: Semenovskaya, Aviamotornaya, Baumanskaya.
Address: Hospital square, 2.
Phone: (495)360-04-45.
The maternity hospital building is one of the newest among all ten in the ranking. It was built in 1994. Moreover, despite the "dashing nineties" and the already traditional crisis for Russia, they tried to make it as comfortable as possible for women - from the layout to even the color of the walls.
The maternity hospital is also equipped with the latest medical science and technology, including equipment for monitoring the state of the mother and child, and, if necessary, artificial ventilation, hemodialysis, and so on. Also, the specialists of the maternity hospital at the Baumanov hospital have patented many methods designed to make the process of childbirth as safe and comfortable as possible, and complications during childbirth as rare as possible. There is the possibility of childbirth under the compulsory medical insurance, there is a contractual delivery, where the woman in labor is in the ward with all the amenities. If desired, you can arrange childbirth in an upright position, accompanied by a husband or relative, the child is applied to the breast immediately.
In general, women in childbirth note the friendly behavior of the staff and the excellent qualifications of doctors, thanks to which this institution entered the top 3 of the best Moscow maternity hospitals in 2019 according to reviews. However, there is a drop of ointment in the ointment - it's almost impossible to get through and get information on the phone.
2. Maternity hospital number 17
Underground: Petrovsko-Razumovskaya.
Address: st. 800th anniversary of Moscow, 22.
Phone: (499)906-01-48.
The maternity hospital specializes in preterm birth, as well as artificial pregnancy, she is also in vitro fertilization. Although the building was commissioned in 1993, it has recently undergone major renovations. The equipment was completely replaced with the most modern, including special devices for premature babies with extra-small body weight.
Favorably differs in that it is the best free maternity hospital in Moscow in the ranking - you just need to be examined, tested and buy the necessary clothes. True, there is no vertical birth here, but the child is given to the mother immediately. The specialists of the maternity hospital will help to establish breastfeeding and teach the woman in labor all the intricacies of handling the baby. Women note both the pleasant attitude of the staff and the excellent food. True, as usual, the behavior of doctors strongly depends on whether it is a contract delivery or childbirth under compulsory medical insurance.
1. Perinatal Center "Mother and Child"
Underground: Profsoyuznaya, Nakhimovsky prospect.
Address: Sevastopolskiy prospect, 24, bldg. 1.
Phone: (495)331-85-10.
Despite the fact that in recent years the care and medical services in state maternity hospitals have changed for the better, women are awarded first place the largest private clinic in Russia (Forbes rating), a member of the Mother and Child network, namely, the best perinatal center in Moscow in 2019 on Sevastopolsky Prospekt. Childbirth there is only on a contract basis and on average it will cost twice as much (or even more) than a paid stay in a state clinic. The minimum is 194 thousand rubles for physiological singleton births.
However, women are ready to pay first of all for the human attitude - in "Mother and Child" they do not raise their voices to the woman in labor, and the father of the child can be around even around the clock. The wards are very comfortable and rather resemble not a hospital ward, but an individual hotel room. And everyone praises the food very much - moreover, they bring light snacks to the woman in labor even during labor.
But this medical institution is not famous for comfort alone. The doctors of the center are highly qualified and are able to provide all the help the mother needs, even if things go worse than we would like.
What to look for when choosing a maternity hospital
To avoid unnecessary worries during childbirth and after them, expectant mothers should pay attention to the following factors when choosing the best maternity hospitals in Moscow:
- hospital conditions;
- the number of people in the ward;
- is it possible to rent a separate room;
- what methods of pain relief and whether you have to pay extra;
- whether the presence of a husband or relatives nearby is possible.
The qualifications and friendly attitude of the doctor is also important, the opportunity to get acquainted with him in advance, show the medical record and talk. And also many expectant mothers are worried about the information about whether they can be next to the baby after giving birth or, according to the old scheme, will be allowed to be applied to the breast for a short time and then taken to another room.
