haha he has looked after me for my 3 pregnancies and done a few operations on my family members very smoothly with no compications . i think other gynaes are professionally jealous cos dr gordon tan is a super competent gynae and very successful cos he is very good. he may not be the cheapest but i believe he is the best !! very careful, very safe. as for unnecessary operations, he always explains rthe condition and the possible risks if we do or dont do and leave the decision to us. what the heck i have only one life and i rather spend some money and fix a potential problem than run the risk of catching some serious disease . by then spend more money also cannot cure. easy for other gynaes to say op not necessary but i think if other gynae was in same situaution as kiasu gordon tan they would advise to operate. sadly human natrure is always to criticize others anyway i find him very good and recommend all my frens and relatives to him. he always give his hp so can contact him anytime by SMS. one big problem with him is he is soo-o-o-o popular n busy sometimes must wait long time but if make appointment usually is okOther gynes told me to avoid Gordon Tan and that he charges high plus do a lot of unnecessary operations when they are not really needed.
hi i had my 2 kids under dr gordon tan and my sis and cuz had 3 and 3 children all under him and we find him very professional and caring. agreed he does not talk much but he is the author of a best selling book on womens problems and gave each of us a complimentary book . by reading we all learnt a lot so no need for him to explain. but sometimes i still have questions and when i ask he takes a long time to explain clearly. in fact after every consult, he always ask if there are any questions and if i dont bring up anything then the consult is very brief. i suppose he must b like this cos he is so good and popular that he has a long queue of patients waiting outside. anyway all his patients have his hp no and he always say call or sms him anytime and he always replies sometimes even past midnight [ poor guy !] i had a serious complication during my second pregnancy [ heavy bleeding and contractions] and he warded and took good care of me. was no cheap but in the end my darling xavier was born smart like anything. in life i suppose as long as in health money can always earn. importantly, i find gordon tan a very competent , professional and caring gynae.Like what mummyto2 said, he's ok if there's no complication. He's not so detailed. Planning to change gynae for my second one.
