Ok, just went for checkup with dr. ang a few days back and did check with him again about the costs. He said his delivery charges are not so ex ($1500) like what his receptionist told me earlier, perhaps closer to $1000 or so. But everything's like in a package form, so anyway, after medisave deductions, if it's a normal delivery and I delivery at TMC, will expect to fork out about $300. Which is still quite acceptable to me.

Baby's stay and checkups I think can also be deducted from our medisave seperately right?

My goodness, epidural so ex... I will try to do without it but dunno can tahan or not. I didn't tahan for my first one... >.<

So far 2 appointments with Dr. Ang only but find him very friendly and easy to talk to. I'm very fat and he still treat me normally not like some doctors will talk a bit condescendingly type. :)
i remember topping some cash for baby stay and checks after deducting from medisave.
 
Will anyone who just delivered by doc ang at TMC that be able to tell me those cost i expecting to pay for my wife who is due in dec...so confusing with some saying must pay up to 1k+++ to 3k++...

Pls help

Hi Daddy,

I guess it depends on which room you take up at TMC, whether it is a natural delivery or C-sect and whether epidural was taken. That's why the cost varies greatly.

Lawerence Ang is a very good gyne. I like that he is fast and to the point when talking but still make you assured.
I just gave birth last week at Thomson Medical Center, 4 bedded (auto upgrade to 2 bedded), natural delivery without epidural but with vaccum, 2 days stay, net cash pay less than $400.

Lawerence Ang very nice, he still take the time to review my bill and informed me NET cash needed before he discharged me!

She came wif her hubby. She's wearing specs. Was dat you?? I have given birth too. On dat day itself(the Mon), Dr Ang check if I have dilated. I was already 2cm dilated. I was admitted on that day itself but managed to do last minute shopping before admitting myself. hahaha.. Contraction damn painful...

I am week number 35 now... This is my second baby... First child also visit and delivered by Dr. Ang... My EDD is 25 Oct... He estimated I will deliver early... Nurse also told me that 2 Oct will be my last visit... I wonder why this time he only see me once a month when about to due? Not twice a month or weekly basic when about to due mey? I remember when carry first baby he see me alternate week when about to due... Also, I got my admission letter during the last visit on 7 sep... Then I received a letter from TMC stated that he booked 4 bedded room for me... I kiasu and ask hubby to call him and ask whether this time got auto free upgrade from 4 bedded to 2 bedded or not... He replied depends on availability wor... my gosh...
