    Hi all,

    Thinking of going private in Rotunda and going with Geraldine Connolly.

    From what I have read in other posts she seems to be understanding and down to earth - which is what we want!

    Any idea of the fees for the consultant? I do have the basic VHI plan - Is there any extra charges outside of the Consultants fee?
    Thanks:)

    We went private last time, with Geraldine. We found her brilliant, and very down to earth like you mentioned. Her fees were €3500 at the time (2011).

    We are pregnant again, but this time we are going semi-private. With the hospitals being so busy during this baby boom we ended up not getting a private room for a couple of days (after c-section) and the on-call consultant ended up doing the c-section. So we feel semi-private just makes more sense considering how few private rooms the hospitals seem to have and with how busy they are!

    Anyway the best of luck, I can't recommend Geraldine enough!

    PS: I am pretty sure VHI cover everything except the consultants fee (that is all we paid anyway)

    I went to Dr Geraldine Connolly this year and had a baby boy in April 2013 I found her fantastic, so kind and caring and re-assuring and really put me at ease every visit I was anxious at the start about the pregnancy and she was really wonderful I cant recommend her highly enough :)
