Hello Everyone,

I am just wondering whether I should go to "Tsan Yuk" for my check-ups and for any other services regarding to "pregnancy stuffs" because I am living in kennedy town? Some of my friends told me that if you're living in Kennedy town, and if you're pregnant, you should go to "Tsan Yuk" (they're not sure of the name though, they've said it's near Sai Ying Pun next to Tsan Yuk??) for check-ups and then later on they will advice you to go to QMH to give birth? Is that right? correct me if my understanding of the matter was being absurd. :haha:

Right now, I am going to the The Family Planning Assoc. of HK at Wan Chai for check-ups and vaccinations.

I think, gov't have assigned hospitals/clinics according to the districts that are much closer to you. But, I really don't have any idea/clue where's the one being assigned to our place. Help please!:confused:
 
Oh, I see. :flower: Another question Rani, what if I wanted to give birth at QMH, Is it possible for Tsan Yuk to transfer me or my records there, even if I go through all the neccessary check-ups with them? And is QMH a public or private hospital??

Thanks, Rani!:cool:
 
Hi,

Tsan Yuk is only an outpatient clinic and you have to deliver at QMH. At around 35 weeks, they will give you all your records so you can take them to QMH if you go into labor. Towards the end your prenatal appts will be weekly so you will be responsible for bringing yr records to your appts.

Hi Rani, do you know if one can have elective C-section at Queen Mary? I heard that "begging" may be required. Is this true or you are free to make that choice?

Hello Future Mommy,

I would recommend Tsan Yuk for all your check ups they are great speak good English the down side being the long time it takes at check ups anywhere from 1.5 hours to 3 hours....If you go to Tsan Yuk U will be having your baby at QMH....TYH does not deliver babies since 2001 I think...anyways u have to register at TYH first for that u need a referral letter from an MCH I think...anyways call them coz they only register new patients on certain days..WED & SAT I think.....

Hope that helps...Oh yeah TYH will send all your records to QMH.....


Hope this helps...

All the best....
 
Hi Sunny,

You cannot BEG for an elective C-Section at any public hospital in HK...they plan it.....

I'm having an Elective C at QMH & all thru my pregnancy they kept telling me I have to TRY for a natural.....only in the end at 36 weeks they gave me a choice as I had had a C previously.....I believe IF you have any medical condition that reuires a C then they will also offer you a C.....like a breach or multiple births...
 
Thanks Rads for your reply. In that case, I will have to go to a private hospital for it. Very best of luck with your upcoming C-section, which must be in the next couple of weeks. All the best!

I live in Tseung Kwan O and I've been told I need to go to United Christian Hospital in Kwun Tong for check ups and delivery as assigned by the govt. I have not decided whether to go private or public as I'm only 7 weeks pregnant. Anyone with experience delivering in this hospital? Do you know if I can just register at say Eastern Hospital in Chai Wan or Tsan Yuk? Would they accept me?
 
Dear Elaine,

You can register in any hospital in Hong Kong, in my memory, Tsan Yuk hospital is only for body check up only. You wil be told to go to Queen Mary for delivery.

I am seeing a private doctor for antenatal check ups, but plan to deliver at the Queen Mary. Does anyone know when I will need to register at the Queen Mary, and take them my records?

I delivered at QMH last year. I had all of my antenatal check ups at Tsan Yuk and also at the Sai Ying Pun Maternal Child Health Centre (this is located on the 6th (?) floor of the Sai Ying Pun Jockey Club...there is an entrance right next door to the Tsan Yuk Hospital, so it is very convenient). I have also had all of the immunisations and check ups for the baby at the Sai Ying Pun MCHC (thankfully, the waiting times for check ups are not so bad once you've had the baby - I wouldn't have gone back there if they had been as tedious as the antenatal appointments). I don't think it really matters when you register (as far as I understand, you will need to register at the Tsan Yuk to deliver at the Queen Mary). I think I was about 3 months pregnant when I registered, and there were women there who looked a lot more heavily pregnant. When I reached the latter stages of my pregnancy, they gave me my records to take home. It was then my responsibility to take them to my subsequent appointments, and of course, I had to make sure they were in my hospital bag ready to go!
