Thanks steffywoofy....hmmm so its costs vs svcs....the nurse didnt brief u abt the package types yet ha?as of now in my mind is gleneagles, mt alvernia or KK...I am seeing Irene Chua at Gleneagles.
Her charges are on the high side but i think she is really good
My first consultant was $290 (First consultant is $150, not sure how much is the scan though, and folic acid)
My 2nd consultant was $530 (Consultant, Oscar scan, blood test, 3 types of supplements Multi vit, fish oil and calcium tabs)
Package start from week 16 which i am not sure how much will that be...
But i really like the environment there... very short waiting time.
Service is good, clean and good environment...
I have been to a gyne at bishan and also kkh prior to Irene Chua...
i see a big diff and mind you... it was cheaper at kkh and bishan too.. bill also came up to abt 200.
Not jus the service...
actually i thought of going to KKH as it is a lot cheaper for subsidize patient (i am civil servant)
But after reading through the forum, i realize the waiting time and service is not very good or rather not what i want. (Few hours of waiting time, diff gyne every visit, might not be able to scan and see the bb during each visit which is important to me)
That is why i settle for a private gyne even though it cost more...
Especially during my first trimester my MS is so bad and i experience spotting almost throughout my 1st trimester. I cant afford to sit at the clinic for hours to wait, travel to difference places for my oscar and such.
