Thanks stonston,If given a choice btw Mt A & Kandang Kerbau Hospital, I'll go Mt A immediately even if budget is a constraint. I rather work harder to earn more money & go Mt A than go Kandang Kerbau Hospital.
It's true that Kandang Kerbau Hospital looks down on ppl who 'downgrade' from private hospital. My friends and cousins were treated with very bad attitude too, so they decided to go to Thomson Medical instead.
If you are going to Private Suite at Kandang Kerbau Hospital, the amount of $$$ you pay is same as going to Mt A It's private hospital rates. & if complications arise, you will also be billed based on the ward you choose. Even if you 'downgrade' to save money, you will also be subjected to the same forms & interviews to ensure you deserve to be a subsidized patient.
Unless you are going to Kandang Kerbau Hospital as subsidized patient (in which many mummies will share their horror stories), there's really nothing to compare between Kandang Kerbau Hospital & Mt A.
Private suite is the clinic you visit your gynea from 1st trimester till about to delivery. You pay private rate. I chose single bedded room package and went thru normal deliveryYan2,
Private suite is it mean that is single bedded room? You went thru normal delivery?
Yan2, currently my gynea is from a private clinic hence if i want to go KK have to pay a bit more to him.. but i can save on the room charges.Private suite is the clinic you visit your gynea from 1st trimester till about to delivery.

I was with NUH for my first 18 weeks as a subisdy patient then transfered to Kandang Kerbau Hospital as private patient...i do agreed with mummies that you pay more, service will be better..
my dear, you can check both hospital's website for the package charges.Thanks stonston,
Yesterday I talk to my husband about those feedback on KK and Mount A. He said that I'm the one giving birth hence is the best for me to choose which hospital I want to stay in. I think i still have to do the decision myself.. I still think it is a tough decision.
Hi all,
I'm a first-time mum. I cant' make a choice of having my baby deliver in Mount Alvernia or KK hospital. Those who experienced with either one or both hospital, do leave your feedback for me. Thanks. :tsmile:
I agree.My choice wld be definately Mt.A.Since its your first baby you wld want the whole experience as smooth as possible.At KmK it depends on your luck..the dr you get,the mood of the nurses..etc.
If overall you only save abit, you might want to go to Mount Alevernia.Yan2, currently my gynea is from a private clinic hence if i want to go KK have to pay a bit more to him.. but i can save on the room charges.
my choice is still Mount A despite that both are as good. Maybe, 1st impression counts that reason why I dont pick Thomson Medical Center is maybe to their side & main entrance to it looks very unpleasant & also the overall look is old. My gynae did told me that when it comes to medical equipment TMC is better.hey ladies,
what about deciding between Thomson Medical Center or Mt A?
it's because their 4-bedded rms are full so some mummies end up in a 2 bedded rm but they still pay for 4-bedded rm rate.. it happens in TMC too.. =)Hi,
I would like to know there is a few mummy paid 4 bedded in Mount A but end up in 2 bedded. May i know why is this so?
