Which Hospital to Choose?

[Mom-2-B]

HI Niah,



I think I paid the lowest private prenatal consultation throughout my pregnancy.

I paid HK$450 per consultation including ultra sound scan. i think from what I have read in this forum, most pp are paying around HK600-HK$1200. (depending which doctors you are seeing)

My OB practises mainly at Kowloon or new Territories hospitals. He does both the Natural and C-section! If you would to ask me about the hospital, I would highly recommend Union Hospital in Tai wai (New Territories) just a station from Shatin.

Since I had a normal delivery and also not high risk, therefore I cant commend how good my OB was to deal with any high risk or any complications. :Butbut, I would really love to praise him for his bedside manner and also his patience. Besides, he gave me a lot of courages and confidence during my pregnancy. Guess the first time mom also worries too much right! HE WAS SO PATIENT WHENEVER WE VISITED HIM. No rush in his dictionary. My husband cant stop praising him whenever mentioning about giving birth'.

In fact, I recommended him to one of my friend, as she wanted to switched her OB. My friend is very glad that I have recommended my OB to her.

One more thing to praise him , he didnt charge me any unnesscery even though I was under full coverage of my insurance.

If you need more info, pls feel free to ask me.

Hi i am also under the Cathay coverage and looking for a cheaper option and doctor to go with.. I am in tung chung though and have been looking at hospitals in hong kong side although i dont mind going somewhere in kowloon too i suppose.. may i pls ask which doctor u were seeing pls and where his office is? How much did he charge you for your delivery and how much did u end up spending during discharge at the hospital (during the 3 nights delivery in hospital with epidural i assume?) would really appreciate your help.. thanks so much

Finally pregnant!!

Hello All,

I'm not sure if the same posters are still reading this thread but I thought I would share my news.....I'm pregnant! It took a bit but it finally happened. Anyway, just wondering if anyone has any information on private hospitals in the New Territories? I think the Union hospital seems to be covered but what about the others?

It's decision time!!!:yeah2

Thanks everyone
