Hi Sharon,

There are a number of excellent docs around and I'm not sure what you would consider to be one, nor do know what your financial/coverage constraints may be, but I will recommend Dr. Arabindha Ghosh who is my ob/gyn. He delivered both of my babies and I continue to see him for my annual check-ups.

If I recall correctly, I think my bill for the the annual was a little over HKD1000.

I find Dr. Ghosh to be knowledgeable, professional, compassionate, and urbane. I like him as a person, too.

I don't have a strong recommendation for a gp.

If anyone else, here has one, I'd be interested in finding out.
 
Oops, I forgot to mention.

I would recommend Dr. Tanpa Thondup as a pede.

His fees are on the high end but I can't recall -- and he is known as one of the best sick baby docs in town.

I could probably take my kids in to see a gp, but I see Thondup because I like his approach: he does not overmedicate, exercises good judgment, is a consummate professional, and enjoys his work (or so it seems to me).

He may strike you as being in a bit of rush; however, if you go armed with questions and your wits about you, he will address all of your questions/concerns.
 
Hi Sharon,

Personally, I feel that Dr. Derek Lo is very good. He's understanding, gentle and take his time to explains things in details. Definitely worth trying.

I strongly recommend Owens Trodd & Partners. It is a true one stop shop with surgeries in a number of places including Central, Wan Chai and Repulse Bay

Dr Trodd is a family practioner but very experienced with babies and children. He is my sons (7mths) Dr and has been since birth

Dr Sally Ferguson was my Obn/Gyn and absolutely brilliant. I have been seeing her for about 7 years

Dr Annabell Dytham is my general practioner and also great. I have been seeing her for about 5 years.

There are loads of others to choose from but they are my favourites

I hope this helps

forgot to mention....dentist too. pediatric denist and for the adults. i used dr. susan yu in central before.. any comments??

I recommend Dr Danni Ting who sees patients at Canossa Hospital as well. She is at Hing Lung Centre, 19th Floor.

Reasonable fees (Consultation around HK400-600) and prescribes good medicine for my daughters, 5yr and 15 mths.
 
Hi again,

Dr. William Cheung is an _excellent_ dentist and very personable(in Central). He is trained at the U of Penn and continues to be quite active there. He practices the latest in dental tech. I respect him both professionally and personally.

I've been recommended to see Dr. Denise Giles (dentist at the Adventist Hospital) for my children but have not yet gone to see her. So will have to wait and see before I can personally recommend her.

Cheers!
