Shared by: akrami

University Malaya Medical Centre
Normal delivery: RM1100 (+ vacuum, epidural, induction. 5 days 4 nights stay)
Comments:
Bad on UM: NURSE VERY RUDE,building very old(they will have new building but don't when ready), ward not clean, got mozzy, i feel room charge is expensive bcoz big hall share by many RM80/night (got money oso cannot have single or double room), as sharing big hall, other babies cry might impact your baby n your sleep, sanity pad they charges but they never told us b4 hand n expensive (luckily i don't like that pad so i used mine all time), not enough parking n very far from building.

Good of UM: Dr very professional (this is why i chose there), delivered by dr (GH normally by nurse, i don't feel safe).

Good / Bad depending on person: Room in concept, means, baby will be by mother side all times, regardless mother condition (unless complication or special case), mother has to take care the bb once exited from labour room. I like this idea as i wanted to bf my bb since day 1. However, i felt pity for those ladies that had c-sect bcoz they would suffer pain more by moving so much.

Labor room
-They have 8 labor rooms like this. Very spacious. Very comfortable. Brings the fear away.
-Mid wife's services are all thumbs up. Very supportive and friendly people.

Single executive room
-Very spacious. Very comfortable.
-6 meals a day. Many variety of food to choose in their menu. They change their menu daily. So you won't get the same food next day.
-They can let you put your baby next to you throughout the stay / put in nursery and bring him/her to you when baby needs milk.
-Gleneagles is a breast feeding friendly hospital. So they encourages breast feeding.

Sri Kota Klang:
Normal Delivery: RM 2200
Vacuum: -
O&G Specialist: Dr. Soh
Cooments: my wife also checked by him... he is quite a responsible doctor...

he found my wife have very high blood pressure when morning when last 1-2 week before birth and he insisted my wife go to hospital immediately and immediate C-Sec if possible, but that day is Saturday and there have a lot of patients went to his clinic for check up but still he spent some hours (afternoon & evening) to skip from his clinic for ensuring my wife & baby's safety...

hence he also went to hospital for check up on my wife when early morning & late night too several times... respect him... Shared from: gkl83[/b]

Prince Court Medical:
Natural delivery without epidural cost RM 3k+
Baby Handling Cost RM 1K +
Single Standard Room - RM 150 / pernite = RM 450
Misc *paed visit + hearing test bla bla bla: RM 500+
O&G Specialist: Dr Paul Tay

Comments:
Dr Paul Tay is the best you can find in the hospital for consultation + charges wise.
Even internally (I've asked) the nurses in PCMC prefered Dr Paul Tay.
The charges he estimate prior to delivery (natural) is around 5k or could be more subject to delivery.

The rooms are 1st class and the midwife are excellent too. Switch our consultation from Ampang Puteri to PCMC is the best decision ever.
Imagine AP charges never less than 180RM regardless wether there is medication or not and most of the time more up to RM 250+.
On top of that the docs hardly gave you useful advise / something new. Our 4 visit to AP is blown to pieces just by 1 visit to Dr Paul Tay.
Lots of parking for visiting family + private room + flexible visiting hours are added benefit


The only bad experience is with Pediatrician Dr. Sharmila which appear not professional at all! Doing her round late and appear messy with long untie hair. She is having flu and holding and inspecting babies without a mask (which is charge Rm 300+!)

Anyway we switch to Dr Anthony James (which is really2 good!)after my wife released from the hospital.
The follow up consultation fees a bit steep but we are more than happy to go.

Lots more to write on the good stuff, but the cashier at the main entrance is a failure can't use Debit card while the rest of the internal clinic cashier have no issue at all.

Mine :

UKM Specialist Centre
Normal delivery : 1.9k (2D1N)
Vacuum : ?
+ Epidural RM400

Caesarean : ?

Obstetrician : http://www.ukmsc.com.my/?page_id=508 (last one on the list)

I should've been more clear. My bad, sorry.

This was the price in 2008, it may have changed. RM 1,200 for normal delivery.

The RM 1,200 package includes single room, meals, baby care, initial paed check up etc (2D1N). The single room is depending on availability, when I was there, no more single rooms, so had to take twin share, but no less or discount of the price though.

I cannot recommend any docs cos the doctor I saw last time is no longer with that hospital.

The overall service is great. I liked the fact that it's a small hospital and everybody worked well with each other. Nurses were nice and very motherly (but not in the intrusive way).

Normally if you're working in any insurance company in Malaysia, you can claim insurance. Or if your company's benefits has pregnancy claim.

that's the reason i went there... it's quite reasonable... but if you're using GL, the price will be double.

Delv at UM (Semi govt one)

Total bill: RM1.1k

Treatment: Vacumn, epidural, induced, 5 day 4 night, n all misc charge

Bad on UM: NURSE VERY RUDE,building very old(they will have new building but don't when ready), ward not clean, got mozzy, i feel room charge is expensive bcoz big hall share by many RM80/night (got money oso cannot have single or double room), as sharing big hall, other babies cry might impact your baby n your sleep, sanity pad they charges but they never told us b4 hand n expensive (luckily i don't like that pad so i used mine all time), not enough parking n very far from building.

Good of UM: Dr very professional (this is why i chose there), delivered by dr (GH normally by nurse, i don't feel safe).

Good / Bad depending on person: Room in concept, means, baby will be by mother side all times, regardless mother condition (unless complication or special case), mother has to take care the bb once exited from labour room. I like this idea as i wanted to bf my bb since day 1. However, i felt pity for those ladies that had c-sect bcoz they would suffer pain more by moving so much.

btw caesarian not necessary use epidural lor, theres few kinds of anaesthetic, local, spinal and epidural, the most expensive is epidural and also the most controversial one, many ppl complain of backache lingering for a long time.

Anyway I mean the price la, most time they quote you package minus the anaesthetic coz few types, you need to add RM800 or so for epi, just wanna make sure ppl knows whats the package includes.

Yalor, DSH is very expensive and not recommended at all. My friend also delivered there and during hari raya (possibly emergency c-sect), bill came up to 12k. That was almost 3 years ago in 2007.

My wife delivered last year (OCT) in UMSC, single room 3days2night, natural with epidural (failed)->emergency c-sect (somemore after working hours, around 7pm) inclusive on baby care about 8k++.

I think some of the private hospital are charging ridiculous pricing. My wife initially had the pregnancy visit at DSH but we changed to UMSC after the doc scare us with down syndrome. In fact, when we did the DS test at the xxxxx (I cant recall the name of the specialist, located in TTDI there), doctor question why we wanna do the test cos my wife and I were so young. This was double confirmed when we changed to Dr Eugene who also question the findings of the gynae in DSH. For me, I never bothered at all after googling up the issue but my wife is restless and I did what I could possibly can do comfort her since its our first child.

My specialist almost used the vacuum on me but my hubby stopped her. Baby was out in less than 30 secs after that - I'm still in awe on how much he trusted me hehehehe.

Woot...

If you ask me, I would advise you to book the doctor and do a c-sect or induced birth before Feb arrive.

CNY is around the corner, and if unlucky, wanna give birth on CNY, charges are likely double or triple. Not only that, if got complication, need to wait for doctor.

Most would stay around 3D2N if they do a C-sect if everything is according to plan. So why risk the unwanted additional financial burden.


Added on December 30, 2010, 1:47 amBTW,

Instead of discussing with us, why not ask your wife gynae? You should discuss with her about the charges so that you dont get rip off blur blur.

I did my homework before my wife delivery and ask the doctor about the financial estimate for natural, c-sect and even the worse possible outcome before deciding. There's a lot more to spend after the baby was born so plan carefully.

Another interesting thing that TS can add is that..how much does it cost for each hospital if a couple requested for an inducement on a particular day? I heard that they have a specific rate like for public holiday/festival/religious dates..

Normally if you're working in any insurance company in Malaysia, you can claim insurance. Or if your company's benefits has pregnancy claim.
Besides that, if you are working in a private hospital, there's hospitalisation benefits (for staff) as well. Let's just say, for example, Senior Executive (Managerial Level) is just one par below Chief Executive (Board Level) but the treats are all well. Couldn't ask for more...LOLZ!

Yeah, DSH very expensive, if not for my wife's claimable monthly pre-natal visits (DSH is her company panel) we wouldn't consider it. BTW, how old are you? My sis 38 yet her private clinic doc did not recommend any DS tests.

I delivered my son at Sarmukh in Setapak for about RM4k+ (C-Sec) in 2009. At that time, normal delivery was about RM1.5k.

I was planning for normal but ended up C-Sec as son was overdue for 10 days and his head is not engaged yet and me not even dilated! Even if i opted to be induced...doc will cut me open as well...so after 10days..i straightaway opted for C-Sec.

Talk about planning!

Emergency C-sect IS expensive. I was in the same boat too, suppose to go for normal delivery but ended up with an emergency c-sect. After that stayed at the hospital for 5 days. They charge you for your normal delivery AND C-sect too. My bill was RM10k!

Sometimes, I wonder if the hospital purposely advise you to undergo normal (but somehow knowingly that you will end up with an emergency c-sect)?

My doc advised me to go for c-sect as I wasn't even dilated (I was 10 days overdue)...though he did say if i wanted to try to be induced, he can do it but for sure that i will end up in c-sect.

A cousin of mine also was given an emergency c-sect as baby was in distress.

Actually your doctor is right, a cousin of mine was overdue as well. The doctor induced her and next thing you know she was all set for a c-sect due to some complications. As for me, I had horrible contractions and they were not strong enough despite the pain being very painful, that's why the doc told me to consider a c-sect and we immediately said yes. But yea, delivering aint cheap for sure.

Not sure whats the pricing now. My wife delivered in late 2009 for a total of 8.8k, normal + epidural + forcep + emergency c-sect + baby care (day n night, yes they charge 2 session for whole day) + 3D2N single room.

Slightly more expensive compared to doing c-sect straight away. If not mistaken, was told by gynae (Prof Leong) doing c-sect straight away cost around 5k+ including baby care. Of course, two years later, its bound to go higher. UMSC is not bad but if your wife goes through c-sect, you are not allowed into operating theatre.

Actually I almost wanted to go for c-sect considering the cost but since my budget allows (already plan before marriage), I decided to let my wife try the natural process. I think its good for men too. See how hard it is for labor. Just dont get too suspense.

I deliver at Sunway Medical centre in year-end 2007.
Cost me near RM8K (incl: emergency c-sect for gynae, emergency services charge by paedatrition, emergency service charge by anaesthesis, and OT charge for all 3 of them too) me stay 2N in quad room (4ppl room) and bb stay 4N.
I plan for normal delivery.. but bb poo inside.. so emergency. Therefore no charge me normal deliver.. but bb poo dangerous.. so have to get the paed and anaesthesis stand by inside too.. and after 5PM.. so become 3 specialist charge me emergency + OT each! And I stay QUAD room .. not single room sad.gif
And tat was during Sunway medical renovate.

So frens, prepare to save 2x the amount u plan to pay.. just incase. Good luck.


Added on March 4, 2011, 4:00 pmIf I were to deliver bb again. I surely will opt for C-Sect by appointment. Safest and price more controllable. Coz now too many cases tat normal delivery, all ended up c-sect. In the end, you have to suffer the pain from both normal + c-sect cut.

Hehe.. Won't la. But probably they dun let you take your baby home.
Coz last time, after c-sect.. walk also very slow and pain. Thinking to get my baby and together go down lobby to settle bill. But the nurse end up give me some papers and ask me settle payment downstair, then only collect baby.

I have to go all the way down settle it and go bk up for the baby. ish! Coz i wanna use my credit card.. not my hubby's card coz he is not good in handling his credit balance.

By the way, no money go government hospital. Some of it not bad.

"any nice hospital to have c-sec". What do you mean by nice?

Hi, I'm new here. Planning for baby this year. I'm wondering is it true that the gynae you choose will determine the hospital you deliver? Most good gynae are attached with private hospital and for sure the price for delivery will be very expensive. Does anyone has good recommendation on gynae around Melawati and KL area?

Thanks,
Jenn

Hi Guys, do you know what's the delivery charges like for Dr Roopi at Jalan Ipoh? (both normal and c-sect).

Another question which might be out of topic - do you have any idea which O&B doc has excellent skills in c-sect procedures (e.g. incision, stitching, etc).

Thanks

Is it just me or everyone here have their baby delivered via C-Sec? Seems that I have to prepare the dough for my wife to deliver our child through C-Sec as well.....

It all depends where your wife is going to deliver. As for me, i deliverd in a maternity clinic in Setapak..for c-sec..Less than 5K. I took the option to do c-sec as my son was overdue for 10 days and he hasn't even engaged into the birth canal. Thus, doc said that there are less chance of going thru a normal birth. He did say that if i wanted to try..he will induce but then there's a high chance of going into an emergency c-sect (thus double fees).

better ask your gynae what is the possibility of natural birth.
must monitor the baby size (weight and position) this will minimize the chances of last minutes c-sect.

Some people body size big but the pelvic small so also cannot natural.

Definitely need to monitor the blood pressure as this will cost you a c-sect smile.gif

Wife - Gleneagles by Dr. Jean Woo
Natural and only use 2 IVs, stay in single room 3D2N
Total bills - 4.1K after Pantai Amex card discount 200(applicable only to hospital portion)
Baby - Dr. Lim MK

Hospital Serdang,
Birth was on 16th May 2011.

My wife had to be warded earlier because the amniotic fluid was leaking.
So, she had to be induced about 3 times. Normal labor.
Spent 3 nights on class 2 ward (before labor)
Spent 1 night on class 1 ward (after labor). Class 1 ward was very superb. One big room where you can spend 24 hours with your wife.
Overall charge would be RM460.

1) For normal birth delivery (without complications) – RM3,000 to RM5,000

2) For caesarean birth delivery (without complications) – RM6,000 to RM8,000

Note:

a) The above is for single delivery and without epidural (will cost an additional of about RM800 to RM1,000)

b) Inclusive of bed charges at 4—bedded rate (you can view our room rates at http://www.tropicanamedicalcentre.com/defa...?contentID=598)

c) Inclusive of the charges for baby (with no complications)

not bad. at least those nurse there are very friendly and helpful.

Baby was placed at the baby room and they will take care on behalf, like feeding, bathing, change cloth, etc while mother after gave birth can have rest and no need to worry too much; of coz you may ask them to send the baby to your room anytime.

as for the food... well, so so only, but my wife ate the food cook by mum, not taking the food there, so I makan... 1 day 4 meals

as I wish to accompany my wife and stay over nite, thus I took the 1 bed room.

I'm going to have my 2nd baby soon at Pantai Hospital Cheras. I can't remember the exact total amount i paid the first time having my boy, but it was roughly RM3K.
I had my own room, normal birth, the light for my baby cuz he had yellow skin. thats about it. No epidural etc...

I asked my doc again today about the prices, he told me between RM2300 - RM2800 (depending on what class, like single room, 4 bed shared etc.)
But thats without the extra charges. Hopefully it wont be very expensive, cuz i really dont think this country should charge so much for child birth. My mum told me if i gave birth in NZ (where she's staying) it will be free.

Been reading this thread for all the good info. Has anyone tried Tung Shin hospital?

My wifey EDD is around 3rd/4th week of Jan next year. CNY rates / doc availability worries me a lot.

Was thinking to go for HUKM Cheras, Glenmarie Ampang or Serdang. But I think I need to go do a proper survey on the pricing & quality personally. I'm staying in Cheras btw.

Pantai Medical Cheras will be my last resort, due to the expensive fees. Still remember my appendix op, both parents' dengue stay, wifey's dengue stay as well. Horrible charges rclxub.gif

This lady told me she had her baby at HUKM, the price was around the RM500 one. Not sure ... but she said that the NURSES delivered her baby and NOT the doctor.
When i heard that i was abit ummm.. speechless. Of course there are nurses out there who learn and know how to deliver a baby. But to me, i would prefer a qualified doctor to deliver my baby.
It's also best if the doctor delivering your baby is the gynae you have been seeing all the months during pregnancy, as he or she knows most about you/ your wife, baby and your/ wifes body.
Also steer clear or doc's who insist you go for c-sections. Unless you really need it, it's best u go for natural births. Some doc's just want the extra money, cuz well... c-sections cost more.

Who knows what could go wrong... i dont know, but i think spending a little extra money on the mother and babys safety is more important than saving and looking for cheaper alternatives.
Of course not everyone has the money to spend since delivering a baby is very expensive at most places. But who ever said that having a baby/ babies was cheap right...
Im not trying to put down or criticize anyone for going to non private hospitals, clinics or GH (cheapest i think) Im just saying, if u have the money, dont think twice, if money is a problem, then there isnt really much choice.
In the end... like i said, having a baby is not cheap, neither is raising a baby>>> child. So do be prepared for everything thats ahead.

agreed... like nowadays, husband are smoking, cost around >RM250 per month, using smart phone that cost >RM1k, shopping using credit card >RM200 per month, your perfume cost >RM150, not even include sport rims, car sound system, car body kit, LCD TV, home theater, handbags, expensive clothes and watches.... in will sum up tp thousands.... all those item are categorize as LUXURIOUS.... and during labor, some might search for BUDGET... it is not fair for the wife and the baby..... but if your entire life was in the budget mode, then, you are being fair to the family...... just my 10cent.....

Wife gave birth at our hometown Sitiawan, Yeak Maternity. Shop lot type, no full hospital facilities.

natural birth(vacumn) + painkiller labour + 2D/1N (4room) = rm2650
no food provided

Not exactly 'cheap' considering a small town

last week i went to sitiawan,and survey at Sejati maternity..normal will cost around RM1600, if caesar RM4800 ~ RM5000...

This lady told me she had her baby at HUKM, the price was around the RM500 one. Not sure ... but she said that the NURSES delivered her baby and NOT the doctor.
When i heard that i was abit ummm.. speechless. Of course there are nurses out there who learn and know how to deliver a baby. But to me, i would prefer a qualified doctor to deliver my baby.
It's also best if the doctor delivering your baby is the gynae you have been seeing all the months during pregnancy, as he or she knows most about you/ your wife, baby and your/ wifes body.
Also steer clear or doc's who insist you go for c-sections. Unless you really need it, it's best u go for natural births. Some doc's just want the extra money, cuz well... c-sections cost more.

Who knows what could go wrong... i dont know, but i think spending a little extra money on the mother and babys safety is more important than saving and looking for cheaper alternatives.
Of course not everyone has the money to spend since delivering a baby is very expensive at most places. But who ever said that having a baby/ babies was cheap right...
Im not trying to put down or criticize anyone for going to non private hospitals, clinics or GH (cheapest i think) Im just saying, if u have the money, dont think twice, if money is a problem, then there isnt really much choice.
In the end... like i said, having a baby is not cheap, neither is raising a baby>>> child. So do be prepared for everything thats ahead.

beg to differ with some of the points here. My wife was giving birth in HUKM, yes, there was nurse who handled the normal birth for my wife but i believe she is qualified to do so. Not least, plenty of medical practitioners on the spots too. If you told me the nurse will handle the c-sec, then only i will starting to worry, not to say that there is doctor who were on the spot too to monitor the situations. smile.gif

if you are looking gynae who eventually the only one to help you for the whole pregnancy process, then your only choice is private hospital or engage a private doctor. This is not the case for GH smile.gif

as for cheap or expensive, does it mean expensive = safety, ponder on it. may be you might not aware that if some serious case happen in private hospital, they can still refuse your admission and ask you to go GH instead, why they do so? may be because they don't want to take the risk or their equipments are not to the par for serious case. smile.gif

having said that, the doctor's in the private clinic who we visited for routine check up told us that his hospital won't accept emergency admission for pregnancy below 36 weeks, does it mean they only welcome healthy and trouble free maternal? smile.gif

Unfortunately, most private clinics that have delivery service will flatly tell you, they will refuse to deliver any complicated pregnancy. In other words, they want hassle free delivery. I'm not incline to believe 100% in they do not possess complete equipment. Probably they don't want any complications that may affect their reputation.
As for nurses that deliver babies, I think most GH do this for normal deliveries after doctors certified that its time. Afterall, in the old time, its mid-wife, not doctors that deliver babies.
My only reservation about GH is they have too many trainee doctors that don't have experience who do not what to do when there's complication. A friend's baby end up lack of oxygen due to the doctor unsure whether to do caesarean. When the experience doc came, he instruct to op immediately, but its too late, the baby end up can't cry at all, which is not a good sign. Till now the kid is ard 4 but still cannot eat properly & a bit 'slow'. The best part is, the hospital got worried and ask the couple which is less educated to sign letter indemnify the hospital and doctors before releasing the baby

Agree with you both. Everyone comes from all walks of life, different wants and needs.

But i wasn't saying that expensive = safety at all, sorry if what i wrote was misunderstood. I've also experienced bad treatment in a private/ expensive hospital. Tis why i will not go back there, even if it's just for a small matter.
I didn't know about this " if you are looking gynae who eventually the only one to help you for the whole pregnancy process, then your only choice is private hospital or engage a private doctor. This is not the case for GH smile.gif " -So thanks for pointing that out smile.gif

Even if you have a lot of money, but your situation is very serious, they will still request you go to GH, cuz they have all the advanced gears and equipments. So i'm definitely not saying that if you have/ or don't have the money dont go here or there and vice versa etc. What i mean is that everyone should be wise and choose carefully when having a baby, the money needed to support, choosing a gynae/ doc, clinic, hospital etc.

Sometimes if you feel that the doc/ gynae that you are seeing is not right for you and doesn't match what you require, it's best to change i guess.

For me, I measure expensive = comfort.... I.e, My wife had experience, being warded in Prince Court and Pusrawi, if compare, the services in Prince Court are far more better than at Pusrawi, the comfort of the baby, mom and guest. It's priceless. Yes, if you have any complication, the hospital would suggest/ ask you to go to government hospital, but we need to plan for the best and prepare for the worst too... right? ;p My 2nd child is due in Feb 2011, still thinking to 'try' which hospital... hehehehe....

I think comfort and professional doctor are two very important factors to choose for baby deliveries, i know the cost is high, more comfort = more expensive but hey, it's pretty darn important right

being the positive thinker i am, well, i guess if it's expensive, plan ahead and go find a way to make more money for it, easier said than done, i know hahaha

I don't think that expensive is always equal to comfort. And furthermore I guess priority should be given to professionalism and ability to handle serious cases with complications. I was not accepted in private hospital due to being Rh-negative only, was told to go to GH. Nowdays possible Rh-incompatibility is not a problem actually but not foe them.

my wife safely delivered a health baby girl at Penawar Klinik & Dewan Bersalin Muslimah. Normal birth and the total cost is rm1.8k

My only concern while surveying for suitable place is privacy. I don't want any practical student to linger around taking notes while my wife is battling with her life. I also want a female medical staff only to be present during the process. So, in Penang, I think this is one of the place. Especially for muslims.

Service is good. Food is superb although it was a simple dish. Best is, all the prayers are well displayed so that you can recite it even during the delivering process.

Worth it!

Recently just delivered my baby girl in SDMC (previously known as SJMC)

Follow up with Dr Fong Chee Kin throughout pregnancy and delivered by Dr Tan Teck Sin (Dr Fong was on leave) and i was 3 weeks early sweat.gif

Highly recommend for both doctors, extremely profesional and strong advocate of normal delivery biggrin.gif biggrin.gif altho u might have to put up with their "strictness" and no-nonsense characteristics

Upon Check-in must pay deposit of RM4000, assuming normal delivery estimate is about RM4000-RM5000 (depending on epidural i guess)

I was hoping for normal delivery, however after 18 hours of on and off contractions, doctor recommended c-sec (trust this doctor - cos he actually scolded my aunt when she ASKED for C-sec, so i know this doc wont simply recommend c-sec to make $$)

Therefore after epidural and c-sec total bill was about RM11,500++ with 4D3N stay in twin-sharing room. Dr Tan said as long as i fart and poo (seriously no joke) then i can go home, but i decided to stay another 2 days as the Child Dr suspected my baby may have jaundice - true enough report on 3rd came out positive... so i stayed for 4th day for treatment - cos i wanted to breastfeed and very far to travel from my house....

Overall experience in SDMC with nurses and Dr are very good - except for the queue blush.gif

After a week i had infection on c-sec.... sigh... but thats another story....

Total cost for delivery, lab, room and consultation for mum and baby is about RM3500. No epidural but just injection and gas for pain relief...really salute my wife... notworthy.gif

i'm just recently deliver in government hospital sultan abdul halim, sungai petani kedah. of course government price is very cheap where cost under rm250. nurses are friendly. service of 4 meals a day. many young doctors are performing delivery and have experienced nurses around, the advantage is young doctors they handle gently and soft, but the disadvantage is sometimes they unsure to make decision of some situation. Example, they unsure whetther want to give me epidural injection due to unstable of the baby's heartbeat. but somehow, the nurses will patrolling two times at night and they will guiding you on how to take care your baby.

for the experience doctor, they somehow do things with very "cincai" attitude. when i was called for examine my wound due to episiotomy, he just insert his finger and korek korek without caring your fresh wound is injured or not. i just endure the pain till my tears fallling. vmad.gif


at first i want to deliver at private hospital, but i heard several cases that they sometimes have no doctor available or u have any complication during delivery, they will send you to government. hearing that is really fearing me to risk my life to deliver in private. rclxub.gif

i can give a thumbs up for this government hospital because of their new equipment, good services and facilities. but no to old doctors...

Congrats. on your newborn smile.gif RM250...damn cheap! It's true that experienced doctors are usually seem very "cincai" because they are so experienced that they have "seen it all", so in a way is although you think they are cincai, but they still know what they are doing...my wife's gyne was also like that but he's very good and whateva her told us in advance, really came to pass. During the delivery, he was still chit chatting with the nurse about the Empire Shopping Centre's explosion that happened that morning (our hospital SJMC is very near to the scene)...but when the action almost started, they were very focused on my baby's natural delivery. smile.gif

On stories where people are sent to government hospitals (GH) if there's any complication during delivery, very unlikely because you're already in the midst of delivery and it makes no sense to transfer you to a hospital halfway which is very risky.....(not sure about the ones in Kedah but the ones in KL have very experienced doctors which justifies the very high fees). There is no doubt that the equipments in government hospitals are the best because they are bought with tax payer's money smile.gif And there is no doubt we do have good nurses and doctors in GH....but the work load is so much higher in GH that many of the staff are simply demotivated or tired....so the equipment is just as good as the person using it at that moment smile.gif

once again, congrats and enjoy your new born!

My wife just delivered early October and here's the price for 3D2N natural birth delivery.

Baby - 1k
Wife - 3.3k (Single Bedroom) + "laughing gas"
Total 4.3k (everything included)

Dr and midwives are quite good. Dr. Jean Woo is good as she didn't go ahead with vaccuum/forceps when my wife asked for it. Everything went well, and my wife bravely delivered baby boy within 3 hours labor. smile.gif

Dear life's Maniac,

my 1st daughter was born at Serdang hospital..

i am planning to go back to deliver my 2nd baby next year March 2012.
i have yet to go have a check up at their clinic but i have my check up nearby my house (Pusat Rawatan Sungai Long) the doctor already giving me a card and also a letter so i can further my check up either hospital serdang (clinic) or their clinic
if you wish to deliver at serdang hospital, just bring along your health record card and the letter written from you doc.
Make sure to get a number earlier at there otherwise over crowded later.
when you check up at serdang hospital, they will give u another record book ya, so no need to worry smile.gif

How much is the natural birth and cesarean charges at Prince Court Medical Centre with Dr. Paul?

Hi!

For a normal delivery it's about 4-5k, for C-Sec it depends on your situation. Can go 7k and up. Budget about 150-200 bucks per antenatal visit for consultation, blood tests, vitamins and whatever else needed.

But in a heart beat would I recommend Dr. Paul. He's gentle, friendly and most importantly, he's genuine about his patients.

Hope this help s:)

If I'm not wrong you will require a medical card from the Government hospital so the best is to do your last few check ups at your home town's government clinic...if not, not sure will there be any delay if you directly do admission on the delivery day...I could be wrong..any one with such experience?

My wife delivered our baby in Prince Court Medical back in June costing roughly around RM 4.9k (self pay GLC probably double)
Stayed 4 days 3 nite since baby need some medical attention. I even asked the cashier 3-4 times on the total bill heheheheheh rclxm9.gif

Natural delivery without epidural cost RM 3k+
Baby Handling Cost RM 1K +
Single Standard Room - RM 150 / pernite = RM 450
Misc *paed visit + hearing test bla bla bla: RM 500+

notworthy.gif Dr Paul Tay is the best you can find in the hospital for consultation + charges wise.
Even internally (I've asked) the nurses in PCMC prefered Dr Paul Tay.
The charges he estimate prior to delivery (natural) is around 5k or could be more subject to delivery.

The rooms are 1st class and the midwife are excellent too. Switch our consultation from Ampang Puteri to PCMC is the best decision ever.
Imagine AP charges never less than 180RM regardless wether there is medication or not and most of the time more up to RM 250+.
On top of that the docs hardly gave you useful advise / something new. Our 4 visit to AP is blown to pieces just by 1 visit to Dr Paul Tay.
Lots of parking for visiting family + private room + flexible visiting hours are added benefit


The only bad experience is with Pediatrician Dr. Sharmila which appear not professional at all! Doing her round late and appear messy with long untie hair. She is having flu and holding and inspecting babies without a mask (which is charge Rm 300+!)

Anyway we switch to Dr Anthony James (which is really2 good!)after my wife released from the hospital.
The follow up consultation fees a bit steep but we are more than happy to go.

Lots more to write on the good stuff, but the cashier at the main entrance is a failure can't use Debit card while the rest of the internal clinic cashier have no issue at all.

If anyone need more info I am more than happy to reply PM

my wife also checked by him... he is quite a responsible doctor...

he found my wife have very high blood pressure when morning when last 1-2 week before birth and he insisted my wife go to hospital immediately and immediate C-Sec if possible, but that day is Saturday and there have a lot of patients went to his clinic for check up but still he spent some hours (afternoon & evening) to skip from his clinic for ensuring my wife & baby's safety...

hence he also went to hospital for check up on my wife when early morning & late night too several times... respect him... smile.gif

Hi,

My wife plan to deliver to in PCMC in Feb 2012. In 2010, she did the check up and deliver in PCMC, the price was roughly RM250 per check up including the medicine. Now the price had increase. Now almost RM200 per check up without any medication. Hopefully, the deliver cost will not increase so much. Will update back after my 2nd prince born. huhuhuhu....

Recently just delivered my baby girl in SDMC (previously known as SJMC)

Follow up with Dr Fong Chee Kin throughout pregnancy and delivered by Dr Tan Teck Sin (Dr Fong was on leave) and i was 3 weeks early  sweat.gif

Highly recommend for both doctors, extremely profesional and strong advocate of normal delivery  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif altho u might have to put up with their "strictness" and no-nonsense characteristics

Upon Check-in must pay deposit of RM4000, assuming normal delivery estimate is about RM4000-RM5000 (depending on epidural i guess)

I was hoping for normal delivery, however after 18 hours of on and off contractions, doctor recommended c-sec (trust this doctor - cos he actually scolded my aunt when she ASKED for C-sec, so i know this doc wont simply recommend c-sec to make $$)

Therefore after epidural and c-sec total bill was about RM11,500++ with 4D3N stay in twin-sharing room. Dr Tan said as long as i fart and poo (seriously no joke) then i can go home, but i decided to stay another 2 days as the Child Dr suspected my baby may have jaundice - true enough report on 3rd came out positive... so i stayed for 4th day for treatment - cos i wanted to breastfeed and very far to travel from my house....

Overall experience in SDMC with nurses and Dr are very good - except for the queue  blush.gif

After a week i had infection on c-sec.... sigh... but thats another story....
*
Mine was the other way round. I supposed to deliver by Dr.Tan but he went for holiday, finally, Dr.Foong is the one who delivered my baby.
But my experience with both of them are really not so good...

My bill charges at SDMC also is RM 1xxxx,xx.... Now I would think that it is so costly.
Tell me the story after u had ur c-sec.... I m really interested..

Happy new year!!!

Need some advice from experienced parents here..

My wife just tested positive yesterday and we plan to go to a specialist to confirm it. As we stay in Damansara Utama, i think it's best (and more convenient) to go around here.

Any recommendations of a good specialist centre / gynae to go to?

By the way, if we should go with the gynae, does it mean that we have to deliver at his/her designated hospital / medical centre?

Your advice / suggestions on this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Dr. Siti Zaliha of SDMC is highly recommended if you decided for private hosp.

My advise you go to gov clinic/ hosp n private hosp for chck up.
You can use medicine given at gov clinic n just pay for consultation n suppliments if needed in private hosp.

Its all depend whr your wife want to give birth.


Thanks in advance!

For vaginal birth :

Government staff with GL = free / minimal fee

Other people (not "semi private") = 700 plus

UKMSC (specialist wing, considered "semi private") = 2-3k

UKMSC still share delivery room with other patients.. only wards and specialist different. I can vouch that specialist wing nurses are lousy.

C-sec at a general hospital. Good care, they know what they're doing, they don't pamper you too much and get you prepared for baby care minutes after the procedure, etc. Superb baby security!

RM140 (two weeks stay)

WintersuN, rm4k-6k inclusive of all prenatal checkup sessions and delivery charge??? This figure estimation is quite impossible at most "famous" private hospital.. furthermore we're talking about Sunway hospital here smile.gif that price stated is for delivery alone (plus the standard mother and baby care stuffs after delivery) you gotta budget separately for each check up during pregnancy... About 100 - 200 each visit (or even more if you go to expensive hospitals and optional tests such as down syndrome check etc excluded) Checkup is monthly once until the final month which will be then weekly, or maybe more if require by doctor for those with special condition. To amswer your question, you will be charged after each checkup, separately. No one lump sum except for the delivery bill.

For vaginal birth :

Government staff with GL = free / minimal fee

Other people (not "semi private") = 700 plus

UKMSC (specialist wing, considered "semi private") = 2-3k

UKMSC still share delivery room with other patients.. only wards and specialist different. I can vouch that specialist wing nurses are lousy.

I have already registered to deliver under ukm government . But now feel like changing to ukm specoalist wing. How should i proceeed.?? Last week I went for first chexk up, so many ppl and thos3 doctorsr who attended me I'm sure are those trainees. Planning to switch to the specialist wing for better doctor and services.

urm...it's your choice and it depends on your budget? Cheapest is definitely Government hospital. Cheaper Private you can opt for Pantai, Sri Kota Klang or other smaller delivery centres. Have you read through this thread? If no I suggest you to read all 14 pages since many people share their experience and total cost for delivery. There's no one answer. Different people may have different experiences with certain hospital/clinics, like some had bad experiences in highly recommended hospitals and doctors too smile.gif

Price only for delivery. If my memory serve me right, the cost for check up:

Register: RM 5
Consultation: RM 90
Procedures: RM 15 (include ultrasound scan)
Lab: RM 10 (for urine test)
============
min RM 120 per visit

Others optional:
Multivits = <RM 20 (calcium or other supplements can buy separately from pharmacy during sales, cheaper)
Blood test = RM 100 - RM 250 each
3-4D ultrasound scan = <RM 100

Cheap one? Go government, only cost me RM 3 for check up + consultation + urine test + ultrasound + blood tests + injection + multivits ... long hours waiting though...

Hi guys, I would like to share my experience....

Just having a summary from the first....

Both of kids were delivered at Prince Court (PCMC) just in case newbies dont know the short form.. hehehehe....

My first son's charge was RM5,000: mom's charge around RM2,400, babies RM2,600. Baby expenses was quite expensive since by baby had problem. Expenses include; standard room, superb meals, very spacious room, friendly nurses and had been treated like VIP, we stayed for 2 nights, normal birth, only spend 4 hours in labor room. That was in October 2010.

My second kids was also born at PCMC, but total charge only RM3,900. Moms' charge is RM2,400, baby only RM1,500. but since PCMC was getting cheaper, all the rooms or ward are full. So, PCMC upgraded our room to junior suite. It really superb experience. The room really big and it even had kind of living room inside. My wife spend only 1.5 hour in labor room, stayed for 2 nights and the baby was ok. This was February 2012.

Really recommended for those have a budget.

Thanks.

yeah that's the surprising thing about Prince Court Medical Centre. Everyone was having the impression that this hospital is very pricy (or rather, hoax going on saying that it's a expensive private hopsital) I'll give it a try for our next baby! wink.gif

however, you also have to bring a long your wife rekod kesihatan ibu mengandung card along too.
when you arrived hospital serdang , go to their reception there and register, they will give you a book like this

Hi Celinetsk,

Is it PCPM or PCMC (Prince Court Medical Centre)?

Currently I'm seeing Dr Paul Tay at PCMC and due in early July too. PCMC standard charges is RM90.00 per consultant in regardless of which doctor you consult. PCMC charges for every single items you used, ie for urine test (they'll charge for urine dipstick, urine strips - costs RM7.50). So, normal consultation will cost RM97.50, including the baby's ultrasound and print out. An additional RM60.00 if using 4D machine (the pic is brown/yellow).

For Dr Paul, I think his charges are reasonable compared to other gynae in PCMC. Initially, my sister consulted a female gynae in PCMC, her bills always come out to RM200.00 - RM350.00 for a lot of misc charges. So, she gave up and went back to SDMC.

As for the delivery charges, I've pm-ed a few LY members who are using Dr Paul Tay and received one reply only as below:

"Normal Delivery (2 days 1 Night Stay) is RM 3800, Caesarean (3D2N + Anesthesia fees) RM 8800-9000, epidural RM 1000"

Hope this helps. smile.gif

My wife delivered our baby in Prince Court Medical back in June costing roughly around RM 4.9k (self pay GLC probably double)
Stayed 4 days 3 nite since baby need some medical attention. I even asked the cashier 3-4 times on the total bill heheheheheh  rclxm9.gif

Natural delivery without epidural cost RM 3k+
Baby Handling Cost RM 1K +
Single Standard Room - RM 150 / pernite = RM 450
Misc *paed visit + hearing test bla bla bla: RM 500+

notworthy.gif Dr Paul Tay is the best you can find in the hospital for consultation + charges wise.
Even internally (I've asked) the nurses in PCMC prefered Dr Paul Tay.
The charges he estimate prior to delivery (natural) is around 5k or could be more subject to delivery.

The rooms are 1st class and the midwife are excellent too. Switch our consultation from Ampang Puteri to PCMC is the best decision ever.
Imagine AP charges never less than 180RM regardless wether there is medication or not and most of the time more up to RM 250+.
On top of that the docs hardly gave you useful advise / something new. Our 4 visit to AP is blown to pieces just by 1 visit to Dr Paul Tay.
Lots of parking for visiting family + private room + flexible visiting hours are added benefit
The only bad experience is with Pediatrician Dr. Sharmila which appear not professional at all! Doing her round late and appear messy with long untie hair. She is having flu and holding and inspecting babies without a mask (which is charge Rm 300+!)

Anyway we switch to Dr Anthony James (which is really2 good!)after my wife released from the hospital.
The follow up consultation fees a bit steep but we are more than happy to go.

Lots more to write on the good stuff, but the cashier at the main entrance is a failure can't use Debit card while the rest of the internal clinic cashier have no issue at all.

If anyone need more info I am more than happy to reply PM

Hi guys, I would like to share my experience....

Just having a summary from the first....

Both of kids were delivered at Prince Court (PCMC) just in case newbies dont know the short form.. hehehehe....

My first son's charge was RM5,000: mom's charge around RM2,400, babies RM2,600. Baby expenses was quite expensive since by baby had problem. Expenses include; standard room, superb meals, very spacious room, friendly nurses and had been treated like VIP, we stayed for 2 nights, normal birth, only spend 4 hours in labor room. That was in October 2010.

My second kids was also born at PCMC, but total charge only RM3,900. Moms' charge is RM2,400, baby only RM1,500. but since PCMC was getting cheaper, all the rooms or ward are full. So, PCMC upgraded our room to junior suite. It really superb experience. The room really big and it even had kind of living room inside. My wife spend only 1.5 hour in labor room, stayed for 2 nights and the baby was ok. This was February 2012.

Really recommended for those have a budget.

Thanks.

I live in Kepong. Me & my husband don't mind any hospital or clinic but as long it's responsible & doesn't cost us a bomb! We r looking at RM6k max! Dunno still got this song to sing or not... Hahaha
But now, I had done 2 tests, 1 with just the indicator which shows a very fine line that say I'm pregnant & 1 'ClearBlue' with weeks indicator. So I had to start planning now for the C-session cost.

Pls help me out!

Hi,

There are one maternity clinic(shop lot) located at Selayang Jaya(opposite Shell petrol station and next to E1 food court) which they offer quite cheap packages excluded meal.

My first baby was delivered there with caesarean option(my first option since i'm expecting) and it only cost me 3k plus less than 4k included mummy + baby.

The doctor was a singh guy called Dr Jaspal. Monthly check up was less than RM200 unless need injection or blood test.

You may have a try there. smile.gif

I don't know if this allowed or not but I just sharing info.

If you looking for female doctor especially for klang people, can visit Sheela Women Specialist at Taman Rashna, Klang (In front Jusco Bkt Raja/ behind maybank at Menara Trend)

Look for Dr Sheela or Dr Hawa, which is my mom... tongue.gif

I'm going to PAH (Penang Adventist Hospital) under Dr. Soon Su Seong (a very caring and attentive doctor that explains everything)

You can get the normal delivery charges at PAH website which exclude admin fee which is less than RM50 (for my first child - 5 years ago so now i think should be around there also).

For C-Sec x3 from normal package stated.

Vacuum or forcep or induce should add a few hundred (Dr. Soon said it's not much but didn't tell me the exact amount)
Epidural - RM900.

Monthly check up includes consultation fees, ultrasound, urine test is around RM85 less (not include prenatal vitamin which u can decide u want to purchase from there or get it from outside pharmacy.

The full blood test to check on the HIV and other things cost around RM100.

I would recommend PAH as they're fully on breastfeeding support, the have experience lactation nurse, caring nurse, rooming in with baby. So far I can't find any negative thing about it yet ^^.

p:s this is base on Dr. Soon charges that I got from my visit, other drs in PAH might charge differently on the monthly prenatal check up.

my past delivery charges:

Hospital: Gleneagles Medical Centre
Gynea: Dato Dr Abdul Aziz
Paed: Dr Adrian Goh

1st child, SON (year 2008):
- (A) mother cost: normal delivery + epidural + emergency c-sec + additional pain relief during csec + 4Days 4 Nights Single Room
- (B) baby cost
- Total (A) + (B) : 8k+ and 3k+ : end up around 12k+

2nd child, DAUGHTER (year 2010):
- (A) mother cost: normal delivery + vacuum + 3 Days 3 Nights Single Executive Room (bigger than Single Room)
- (B) baby cost
- Total (A) + (B) : 3.9k+ and 1k+ : end up around 5k+

referring to my itemized bill,fee for consultant/specialist visit during weekend/public holiday is different from normal working hrs.
hospital preference depends on individual choices, u set the criteria.
for me; 1)Cost 2)Doctor 3)Service 4)Environment (privacy setting)..

health cost is very unpredictable,most important set it within your limit.
in private hosp,eventhough u plan for normal delivery,extend ur budget to at least 10k, just in case there is any last minute emergency.
my 1st child is emergency csec,the gynea wont simply cut ur stomach..baby heartbeat and contraction monitors are all around you,so u can see it by yourself..i even refused to go for csec and the gynea agreed to wait for another 1-2 hrs. after 2 hrs,when the progress is not looking well, only then i agreed to be sent to OT. for 2nd child, went back to see the same doctor and hospital. since my 2nd delivery is less than 2 years from my 1st csec delivery, gynea prohibited me from pushing the baby too hard,to avoid any rupture to the rahim (bcoz last one jahit kan), and he use vacuum instead. and very relief bcoz there is no sign of vacuum on the baby's head,round as normal. smile.gif

This RM7k charges, is it inclusive of epidural? Any complications? How many days in the hospital?

Last week, I checked with Dr Paul Tay (PCMC), for elective c-section will costs RM8.5k, 3D2N, all-in charges including baby costs (price quoted without any complications, i.e. if baby develops jaundice, then the charges will be higher).

I have a question

My wife all the while have been going to subang medical center for checkup during pregnancy.

Does that mean she has to go Subang medical center for delivery also?

Is it a good idea to change /switch to other medical center when delivery of baby comes?

im Staying in Setapak now.
Been seeing Dr Edson Cheah Kit Leng (Chinese Maternity Hospital, Jln Pudu) for my prenatal and revisit only cost me rm60.00 everytime.

still surveying and got a review from my fren that Dr Bux (Chinese Maternity Hospital) give very good consultation n service while delivery.
My fren first birth was admitted to hospital at 4pm and give birth at 12am midnight. (year March 2012) Admitted to Tung Shin Hospital Jln Pudu
Doctor refuse to c-sect (which is what i hope for, planning for natural birth)

Cost : RM1400 (doctor fees)
Other room charges etc : RM1000

TOTAL around rm2400 discharge.

I planning to switch to Dr Bux after hearing his good review and good service feedback. Most importantly its within budget.

Pardon my intrusion, as my purpose here is to provide information. If I'm interrupting in your conversation, please do let me know and I'll leave.

As a parent myself all of us hope to have healthy babies and to see the bundle of joy giving you massage (my 5 year old does smile.gif) when you come home at night is the greatest feeling a dad will ever have (of course during that time her hand will 'accidentally' massage your shirt pocket for coins for her piggy bank but I'm not complaining).

However, how prepared are we should the baby is born with congenital issue?

A friend of mine had baby with a hole in the heart and is spending ~RM 30K per annum at Gleneagles PG. The child is now 4 years of age. How he wished we had launched the PruEarly Start & PruBest Start product.

WHAT DOES IT COVER FOR THE BABY?

1. As you may had already know, if the baby is born healthy, there isn't much issue to get the child covered. However, should the baby is born with congenital condition, no insurance would want to provide coverage. This is where Prudential Early/Best Start comes in.

Bridging the gap and it covers the following congenital condition and reimburse hospitalization claims of up to RM 25K per annum (up to age 2).

Anal atresia, Atrial Septal Defect. Congenital Cataract, Congenital Deafness, Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia, Infantile Hydrocephalus, Tetralogy of Fallot, Transposition of Great Vessels, Truncus Arteriosus, Ventricular Septal Defect

2. ICU / HDU for Premature Birth: PruEarly Start RM300 daily, PruBest Start RM 500 daily (max 30 days)

3. Incubation of new born child immediately following birth: PruEarly Start RM 100 daily, PruBest Start RM200 daily (max 60 days)

4. Death of Infant (within 30 days of birth): Total premiums paid or total value of units in account, whichever is higher

WHAT DOES IT COVER FOR THE MOTHER?


1. Pays up to RM 5K (Only for PRU Best Start) for the pregnancy complication for the mother for the following condition:- Eclampsia, Abruptio placentae, Amniotic fluid embolism

2. Death of Foetus: Total premiums paid or total value of units in account, whichever is higher

Note: This is an insurance product that is tied to the performance of the underlying assets, and is not a pure investment product such as unit trusts


The brochure can be found here http://www2.prudential.com.my/corp/prudent.../PMCPESPBS.html

One can take up this plan for the unborn child as early as 18 weeks (up until 35 weeks) into your pregnancy and if you are between 18 – 45 years of age next birthday.

PM me if you need further information on the PruEarly Start & PruBest Start

Again, please accept my apology for the intrusion.

Bridging the gap and it covers the following congenital condition and reimburse hospitalization claims of up to RM 25K per annum (up to age 2).

Anal atresia, Atrial Septal Defect. Congenital Cataract, Congenital Deafness, Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia, Infantile Hydrocephalus, Tetralogy of Fallot, Transposition of Great Vessels, Truncus Arteriosus, Ventricular Septal Defect

2. ICU / HDU for Premature Birth: PruEarly Start RM300 daily, PruBest Start RM 500 daily (max 30 days)

3. Incubation of new born child immediately following birth: PruEarly Start RM 100 daily, PruBest Start RM200 daily (max 60 days)

4. Death of Infant (within 30 days of birth): Total premiums paid or total value of units in account, whichever is higher

WHAT DOES IT COVER FOR THE MOTHER?


1. Pays up to RM 5K (Only for PRU Best Start) for the pregnancy complication for the mother for the following condition:- Eclampsia, Abruptio placentae, Amniotic fluid embolism

2. Death of Foetus: Total premiums paid or total value of units in account, whichever is higher

Note: This is an insurance product that is tied to the performance of the underlying assets, and is not a pure investment product such as unit trusts


The brochure can be found here http://www2.prudential.com.my/corp/prudent.../PMCPESPBS.html

One can take up this plan for the unborn child as early as 18 weeks (up until 35 weeks) into your pregnancy and if you are between 18 – 45 years of age next birthday.

PM me if you need further information on the PruEarly Start & PruBest Start

Again, please accept my apology for the intrusion.

My wife just gave birth to a baby girl this morning (11th May) at Hospital University(PPUM) - new building.The place is very clean(maybe it's new) and the nurses are all okay(not rude as i have read from other forum). In fact one of the pregnant lady told me that i have come to the right hospital with all the complete equipments.She has been staying there for almost a month now due some pregnancy complication.She did mention that some complicated pregnancy patients were refered to this hospital from other hospitals.

I'm still deciding between sunway medical and columbia puchong, anybody has any info on both hospitals? price doesn't matter, only concern on environment, nurses(i dont like people talking rude to me), service and facilities. I heard columbia puchong is with better environment cos the hospital is still new but in comparison the nurses there are quite junior, whereas sunway medical is kinda congested(which i dont really like it) but the nurses there are more experienced and more senior. Hmm... still thinking, appreciate your advise very much ^.^

Hi Chloe,

I have been to both hospitals before for checkups. At Sunway, my OB-GYN was Dr. Wong Chin Yuan, he's a highly-praised OBGYN there (even won himself an award or sth). But my final decision goes to Dr. Silvam at Columbia Asia Puchong. I have also had experience with Dr. Ng Soon Pheng before, I will tell you about it later.

Reasons for choosing CA over Sunway:

1) Appointment system sucks at Sunway. You can only make appointments either for Morning session or Afternoon session. Once you register, you're on first come first serve basis, this I understand, but the queue is always super long and places to sit are v. limited. Whereas, at CA, you can call in and say you need to make an appointment at 1130am, they will quickly check if the slot is OK. Very efficient.
2) Parking space is limited at Sunway. It's a more popular medical centre compared to CA, so you can imagine ppl are always fighting for parking spaces.
3) Sunway has more F&B outlets for sure, but CA is smaller and doesn't take you many floors to get to your OBGYN.
4) Delivery cost wise,CA has better price. That's for sure.

Nurse wise: I won't say that CA has the best nurses in Malaysia, some of them are quite inexperienced actually. But as long as you get yourself a good OBGYN, you wont see bad nurse as one of the important factors to decide which hospital to go to.

Now, about Dr. Silvam. He's a v. down-to-earth OB-gyn who respects his patient's decision on delivery options. I had always wanted to have Vaginal birth. He made it happen for me. Smooth and fast. In less than 2 hours, from dilating until delivery, everything was smooth, without Epidural. He did not even persuade me to give in to Epidural, and said that he's very proud of me for NOT taking it. The whole bill ended up 3000 for 3 days 2 nights in private room for both baby and I.

Dr. Ng Soon Pheng on the other hand, was an unpleasant encounter for me. My first visit to him, he told me that C-section is the safest delivery option for women. I told him I would not want a C-section, if I had a chance to deliver baby naturally, but he kept persuading me vaginal birth is risky and dangerous. Later on, he explained to me 4D baby scan is 100% harmless to babies. I don't know how true that is. Anyway, I never go back to him.

Hope this information helps!

Wow, thanks for your information dear, indeed it helps =D but i'm not choosing the gynae but the hospital, i've been doing my check ups in puchong Chia & Loo Women Clinic and I think i will let Dr.Loo handle my delivery, just that i need to choose the hospital, i do hear lots of good comments on CA so i think i will go for CA, moreover it is much nearer to my house compare to Sunway Medical, parking easy, not too congested, no traffic jam, easy to get single room(cos i dont like sharing room with others), environment better(new hospital).

After studying in PPUM for the past 3+ years, I would advise people NOT TO COME if they have a choice.

Why? First of all, this is a university hospital, and that equates to STUDENTS. It is unfair to the students if you refuse to be clerked/examined/delivered by students (they're the ones in the white coats with clipboards) especially if it's in the middle of the night and the doctors on-call are in OT or handling a risky case. Students are required to deliver babies and we have been trained to do so.

#2: The new wing is currently understaffed and underutilized. Yes, we can fit more people in, but we still have the same number of staff.

#3: PPUM gets a lot of referrals for high-risk pregnancies, so if suddenly when you're labouring and another person who has a high-risk pregnancy is in labour at the same time, please don't get angry if the obgyn on-call goes to see that other patient first. This is assuming that there is only one high-risk case at the time. On a bad day, you may only see housemen and students until the time of delivery >_<

So it's your choice really. What's good about delivering in PPUM is that there are better facilities and specialists, especially when compared to government hospitals. Risky pregnancies/labour will be in good hands, but normal ones are generally left to housemen and midwives (and students) which usually isn't a problem smile.gif

And price would be cheaper compared to other private hospitals.

My own sister had terrible experience with HUKM, it was really nightmare and nobody would believe with the what she had experienced there. At first we thought HUKM is a half government/half private hospital and the price is 'quite' reasonable and near to her house, so decided to go to this hospital instead of other private hospital.

During the few hours of her contraction, the doctor brought few students into the room and let them monitor when the doctor is examine my sister, which made my sister feel very embarrassed showing her private part to strangers(not doctor/nurse). During her delivery complications occurs which doctor decided to use forceps, i'm not sure whether it's the doctor who is not experience enough or what, eventually there are some tears inside the vaginal caused by the forceps, so stitching had to be done inside the vaginal, and guess what, stitching was done pretty bad that cause heavy bleeding after my sister was sent back to room to rest.

We were quite shocked to see the heavy bleeding after the surgery and called the nurse to check on my sister few time during mid night, the nurse didn't say/do much but just to change the pad for my sister. Until my sister almost fainted then only the nurse call the doctor to come to hospital. So second stitching was done again.

My sister rested in hospital for 1 day before she went back home. She kept on complaining that her vaginal was very painful so we thought it's the stitching that cause the pain and she did take pain killer. Until 2-3 days later when we saw blood clogs coming out from the vaginal (big blood clog) and she fainted eventually, we sent her to another private hospital to consult another doctor, then only we found out my sister was not prescribed with anti-biotics in HUKM!! which caused the wound to infect and swollen and bleed. Again, my sister had to go through another surgery to stitch the tears inside the vagina by the private hospital doctor. We didn't have the time to go back to HUKM to investigate whether the doctor didn't prescribe the anti-biotic OR the pharmacist missed out on the anti-biotics that prescribed by the doctor, but we are really really disappointed with what happened in HUKM which i think it's very unacceptable!

in your case, i think you better check with HUKM or sue them for their action. U'll get the compensation and the hospital will get their lesson... and hopefully, no else will be the victim. just my concern, that's all.

Hi Chloe,

I also deliver @ CA end of last year under Dr Chia via natural induce.
The service there was good. The midwife and nurses during my session was very good n experience and keep come to monitor me and talk to me during my labour process. Quite comfortable with the environment compare to sunway medical (especially ward environment). But really is depends on the availability of single room. When i admitted i cant get single room and was put under waiting list. After deliver also cant get single room cos still full. But i consider lucky cos i was the only patient in my twin sharing room biggrin.gif. Nursery nurses oso better compare to sunway medical through my observation during i visit my fren who just deliver in sunway medical.

Thanks for your replied. So are u staying in single room? My friend just delivered this year Jan via c-sec too and her bill is rm6600 if i'm not mistaken but her doc is not from CA, her doc is owning his own clinic somewhere in puchong or seri kembangan. Who is your doc?

Hi Chloe,

I also deliver @ CA end of last year under Dr Chia via natural induce.
The service there was good.  The midwife and nurses during my session was very good n experience and keep come to monitor me and talk to me during my labour process.  Quite comfortable with the environment compare to sunway medical (especially ward environment). But really is depends on the availability of single room. When i admitted i cant get single room and was put under waiting list. After deliver also cant get single room cos still full. But i consider lucky cos i was the only patient in my twin sharing room biggrin.gif. Nursery nurses oso better compare to sunway medical through my observation during i visit my fren who just deliver in sunway medical.

wow... sounds like CA is much better than Sunway based on your experience, ya i've decided to go CA for my delivery, thanks for your kind advice =D time flies, another 3-4 months will be my due date already, getting more nervous day by day, haha...

I delivered 3 months ago at clinic Lai taman pertama cheras...took the package..RM1888 for normal delivery....package means...u pay 3-4 mths in advance...partly...then if u finish b4 deliver..u can just go deliver n no bill...unless there's added medication. Mine all settled b4 that so lucky no bill hehe also once u start paying the package....all ur monthly check up bills is included....normally just scan n vitamin...so,I saved a lot. The gynae..Dr. Edmund Lai is from Pantai Medical Centre but owned a clinic....very very good dr. The clinic is not so new but Not bad since I only need a good dr. Hubby can come inside the small labour room till u give birth....nite time the nurse will take care of ur baby so u will get full rest....oh and the same Dr will do the checkup every month n do the delivery....so he shud know everything abt u already....nurses are good....the old ones will take care of u...I go toilet also she follow me n told me not to close the door...scared I will fall or dizzy hehehe recommended place to go I think...

Hi mummies! smile.gif

Just to share my experience here, I have been going to Columbia Asia Puchong for my checkup's with Dr Silvam, I agree with Swee Boon, Dr Silvam is a very friendly doctor to have and he shares alot of information and is always ready to answer any queries.

One thing that I've heard from all my other mummy friends are the time consuming checkup's that they have experienced with other hospitals, I'm glad I chose Columbia Asia Puchong because I didn't have to wait very long at all for my appointment!

Let's say my appointment is scheduled at 10.45am, I will normally arrive around 10.35am and submit my appointment card to the front desk, proceed with the usual urine test, weight check and blood pressure check. That usually takes less than 10 minutes to complete.

Once I'm done with the tests, I'll just have to sit for no longer than 5 minutes and my name will be called! biggrin.gif

Normally my appointment ends within an hour from the time it starts so it's very efficient I must say!

Yeah, same like prince court also, very fast check up. Yet the parking is in the basement, no worry about hot/ raining day. How much is the cost for check up at Columbia Asia Puchong?

Well for my usual checkup's, it's RM 85 everytime but when I reached the end of my first trimester, I did the blood test and the bill totaled to RM 160+, so far everything has been quite reasonable!

I always parked outdoors or sometimes by the roadside of Columbia Asia Puchong when there's no parking smile.gif

check up at prince court is almost RM200 per visit if i'm not mistaken. But the most important to me is the service.

My wife delivered our baby girl early July at Columbia Asia Puchong. With C-sect, 3 days 2 night in 2 bed room [ I did ask for single room but all fully occupied even the ISO room] the total cost = RM7200.. RM6kplus for my wife and all, RM1k plus for the baby under the nursery care during those 3d 2n. Our Gynae was Dr Selvam and boy, what a wonderful doctor he is.

During pregnancy checkup, the charge only between RM60-RM85. Take note that, if you go for C-Sect, you are required to pay RM4k as deposit. For normal delivery only RM1500.

Famous and very experienced doctor, but expect extremely long waiting queue and rushed consultation due to the long list of patients in queue.
So my and my wife would rather go for another Gynae that can spend more time explaining the questions and concerns we have, which we did smile.gif

As for delivering, we had a very good experience with the Midwife and nurses here. Very helpful, understanding and patient. Room, facilities and food quality are acceptable, just don't expect a 5 star treatment like some of the more expensive hospitals around smile.gif

Thanks justin. Which Gynae did you and wife went to? Roughly how much was the delivery cost?

Ya Dr. Tang's queue is super long, so after learning my lesson i went to get number before 7 and go back to hospital again about 8.15. She's very approachable but like you said it's a bit rushed otherwise she will not be able to finish all her appointment. sad.gif

on 6th july i delivered at KPJ SPecialist Shah ALam, my gynae Dr Siti Esah... Emergency c-sect 3days 2night rm8.9k nearly 9k... the service was good and superb... labor room also very nice, didnt feel nervous when entering the labor room... but feel nervous in the OT...

for normal delivery packages: Single room 2299, double room 1799, 4person room 1399...

during registration my husband registered me for 4person room... it is actually room for 2person and the different between double room is 4person room dont have tv... so for those who plan to delivered here, 4person room is good enough...

but my husband change to single room coz emergency csect the price will be separately calculated...

for 2nd delivery i plan to go for Dr Delaila... she's the best but not enough budget for SDMC ;(


Added on August 14, 2012, 10:10 amDr Siti Esah also very long queue... i dont like it and a bit regret coz during scan she just do it "cincai"... that is why i have to go for emergency c-sect ;(that's why planning to go for DR Delaila after this... went to her clinic in ss19 subang jaya "poliklinik fitzrol and delaila" for 1st scan during 3 and half month pregnancy... superb, and very satisfied with her explanation... eventhough have to wait about 1hour for your turn, but it's worth the wait.... during 5 and half month went for details scan, she explain everything and she confirmed that my baby have no tendency for syndrom down...

I've elective c-section at PCMC under Dr Paul Tay. Before delivery, he told me that it'll cost RM8.5k for 3D2N. When I delivered in June 2012, my bill for 4D3N is only RM8.5k without complication, in a premier room with sofa bed (for my husband), safe deposit box, coffee and tea facilities and toiletries.

I opted to continue my stay at PCMC after Day 4, as my baby has a mild jaundice and he was under the photo therapy for 24 hours.

As first time parents, my DH and I want to be more comfortable with our baby and need more help/guidance. So we continued our stay until Day 13 before we went home. Total bill is RM15k, still better than our expected budget which is at RM20k.

Dr Paul did suggest a cheaper room (they called it a lodger) however my DH didn't want to change room, so we stick to the premier room until we discharged.

PCMC is babies friendly hospital, which practices baby in-room with mummy and supports breast feeding. As my milk supply is low, I had to sign a consent form each time to authorize the nursery staff to give formula milk to my baby. The nursery staff will also come and check on the baby every 4-5 hours to make sure I breast feed my baby, how many times the baby passes urine or stool, etc.

I'll go back to PCMC again to deliver my next baby. Highly recommended!

Dr Tang is my first choice for gynae (I've done pap smear under her), however her queue is super long (average 2 hours per visit). My sister and my cousin had delivered their babies naturally under Dr Tang. My DH couldn't stand the queue even though he likes Dr Tang a lot. At the end, we choose Dr Paul Tay at PCMC and each visit is less than an hour. His nurse will call to inform us if he had emergency c-sect or delivery, so we will be kept waiting.

Sir.. they were trained for at least 15 years before being able to become a specialist.....

And the tax payers paid for your wife's delivery. It's not free.

My deposit for elective C-Section is RM8.5k, and the last I asked, the deposit for normal delivery is RM5k (same as Akrami).

If I'm not mistaken, Dr Lai is not servicing at PCMC (Prince Court Medical Centre). Maybe you've mistaken PCMC as Pantai Hospital tongue.gif

Thanks justin. Which Gynae did you and wife went to? Roughly how much was the delivery cost?

Ya Dr. Tang's queue is super long, so after learning my lesson i went to get number before 7 and go back to hospital again about 8.15. She's very approachable but like you said it's a bit rushed otherwise she will not be able to finish all her appointment.  sad.gif

Hi Eva18,

I'm seeing Dr Tang @ SDMC too, EDD 20 Nov. How about you?
Since I'm 3 months away I wanted to ask her for more details about my birth options, hospital procedures, charges, etc but she really didnt tell me much. Instead, asked me to sign up for the Pre-Natal class which, by the way, is organised not by the hospital by some other company sad.gif

I mean, I generally like her, but I feel like some information should be given and discussed with the doctor.
But since she was recommended by a good friend, I believe she's a good doc lah, I guess I will just need to press on further with my questions during my next appointment in 2 weeks' time blush.gif

Hi there,

Allow me to share some of my opinion.

1. Nowadays doctor don't speak much because with the internet, a lot of patients are very smart, read the info from the net and test / challenge the doctor. The doctor will only tell you what is necessary.
2. My first child in 2010 was with Dr Tan Teck Sin. He was recommended by my husband's relative. He is a nice man. From the conversation with his nurse, apparently he's from a poor family who studied hard to be a doctor. He is rather quiet and stern sometimes, whenever during our check-up, my husband always said that we short-changed him thats why he always like so grumpy. Whenever I tell him my back pain or whatever, he will said its normal. Wrist pain, it's normal. Leg pain, is normal. Everything is normal. We got used to it and he advised us pre-admission and thought us some ways to save money without spending so much in the hospital. I think this is a very good point.
3. Our second child was delivered last month. This weekend is his full moon and we are doing gift pack deliveries. Coincidentally, during this time around, Dr Tan went for holiday so I had to choose a backup obstetrician. My colleague recommended Dr Tang Boon Nee, so I went with her. First impression, my husband said she look like a rocker but then she has her ways with her patients. She did my caesarian and treated us well. We both like her service!

Difference between both deliveries (both caesarian).
1. Dr Tan will put me on drip and not let me eat until I pass wind. Dr Tang let me eat little by little, advised me to stop if I vomit.
2. Dr Tan carried the baby out, lift up and showed me and got the nurse to bring him out to the father. Dr Tang carried the baby out, put it next to me, talked to me, asked me kiss the baby and then send the baby out to the father.
3. Dr Tan sewing is ok but I remember he look so serious when he sew, I stress also. Dr Tang can smile and sing song to me when she sew and I tell you, sewing is definitely a woman's job!
4. Additionally, Dr Tang provide some heat socks that helps with blood circulation

They are both good doctors, just approach is different. Some people prefer men because in case of emergency, they have better response time. Some people prefer women because they shy. Some people prefer older men doctor because experienced but some prefer younger because better reflexes.

Overall, I think all SDMC doctors are great! But in the future, when we get our 3rd child, we will go for Dr Tang! Highly recommended!


Added on August 23, 2012, 11:48 pmBirth options:
1. Natural
2. Caesarian

Hospital procedure:
1. If water bag break, shower and go hospital, admit and wait until doctor come to check on you. After water bag break, still can tahan up to 10 - 12 hours. Doctor will come see you and tell you when you are going to deliver.
2. If caesarian, pick a date (if you see fengshui), tell the doctor the date you selected, book the operating theatre, go for the delivery on the date.


Charges:
Very hard to tell but it varies. Both my children is caesarian.
1. The first in 2010 was about RM7 - RM8k for bothparent and children because during the last day, I complaint chest pain and they sent me for MRI scan which was quite expensive, I think around RM700 - RM900.
2. The second in 2012 was about RM7,700 for me and RM1,300 for my son. Total bill is RM9k. It was expensive because it was an emergency. The water bag broke about 2.5 weeks earlier than the EDD.


Pre-natal class
If you have the spare cash, about RM320 - RM380, less than RM400. It is strongly recommended that you attend it and learn the modern ways to care for a baby. I recommended this to a few colleague who are having their first child and everyone enjoyed the class. I think the class offered in SDMC is cheaper than in Sunway and it's quite informative. No regret.

I remember during our class, the nurse / midwife talked about chinese confinement practise - about how they dont shower for 1 month. We had 16 chinese couple in class and 1 malay couple. The malay couple was stunned when they heard about it. My husband just LOL.

Hi there,

My doctor will be Dr. Tang, and glad to hear that she is good.

Just would like to know, I heard that for C-section, there is no food and drinks allowed at least 10 hours before, is that correct?

And how is the experience with C-section?

This is my first baby, so i am a bit nervous and would like to know more about the delivery. TQ.

You know like how you need to go for blood test, then you have to fast with no food / drinks for 12 hours? It's the same thing so it's not all that hard. This happened with my first pregnancy.

When the second pregnancy came, we were having good Japanese dinner the night before. We had great laughs about jokes which were shared over dinner and then poof, next day, water bag burst. Then I took a shower and went to the hospital at 9am but Dr Tang only delivered (via c-sec) at 2pm.

So I guess it all depends on timing? We dont know when exactly the baby will come out yes, unless you pick a date for him / her and expect him to come at x date of y month 2012.

My first c-sec, I was really reluctant with the pain killers. I worried about how it might affect me in the future. All medications have its own side effects even though doctors told me that there hasnt been enough research to proof that epidural and other pain killers may cause harm on human bodies. After the c-sec (first pregnancy), i tried my best not to take pain killers. The pain was bad, getting cut up 7 layers of meat to get the baby out. I couldnt stand. When next day came, I got stuck in the bed, frustrated, back felt heated even though the a/c was on. I tried to stand but couldnt, I moved to the side of the bed and that was painful enough for me to give up. The doctor and nurse scolded me, told me I have to get up the second day. They took off my urinal bag in the next morning, I had to learn to go toilet on my own. It was really bad, I had to hunch (bongkok) and one hand hold onto my husband and the other hand holding my belly. The nurse held onto my side. I went to toilet with them and shooed them out to do my business (big and small).

It took me 4D3N to recover. Monday deliver, Friday discharge. This was due to my own stubbornness.

The second pregnancy, I took the pain killer thinking what the hell, whatever side effects that's gonna come the next 30 years, so be it. I'd be an old hag by then. I just listen to the doctor and nurse advise, I took what I had to, what I was told to. I could get up the next day and discharge the day after. I was only in there for 3D2N. Sat deliver, Monday discharge. I am more active this time around, not sure it was due to experience.

Many said c-sec is more painful AFTER birth but natural is painful DURING birth. My sister in law went natural for her first child around the time we had our second. She shared her experience where her skin around the between of the vagina and butt torn so she got a hole-in-one. It was horrible, she couldnt even sit properly and everytime her panty or sarong gets in the way, it was really hard. On top of that, she find it a challenge to clean the part with wet tissue and etc.

I opted for c-sec but both the times, it was c-sec due to:
a) baby didnt turn around
b) baby didnt dock

So in a way, I get what I wanted anyway so cant complain. Many prefer natural still though.
a) baby comes out stronger
b) less suffering
c) no scar
but I just cannot imagine myself torn up at the most vulnerable area for delivery. Scares me! smile.gif

Total delivery cost for my baby in May 2012 = <RM50 (including charges for baby)

Delivered in Penang Government Hospital, natural birth with epidural (i requested for epidural a month before my delivery and they allowed as i'm asthmatic + 1st baby)

p/s: they only gave me a small doze of epidural as i was already 7cm dilated at that point.

2 days 1 night at 3rd class ward. For the price I paid, I got no complaints. The nurses and trainee doctors gathered around and cheered for me when I was pushing. Had more than 10 audience in the labor room =)

My episiotomy was stitched by a staff nurse and she was very professional. Healed well and they were really helpful. The only down side was when the houseman tried to insert the catheter, it was darn painful.

Never thought that I'll be having so many people cheering for me though. Was in instense pain that time, didn't even bother who else is watching other than the doctor. Hubs told me that the whole team was filled with spirit cos I was the only patient left in the labor room when they're changing shifts. So ended up with lots of audience =)

Baby was all cleaned and passed back to me for the first latch within 30 minutes. Nurses were very patient in guiding me. Definitely no regrets going to a government hospital.

Hi Catherine..

My EDD is abt 2 weeks after u.. So far everytime when I ask my doctor abt the baby, he told me everything is normal and just ask me to control my sugar level. I wasn't quite satisfied with his answer coz Everytime I ask anything, he will ask me not to worry.. Then I got a 2nd opinion from another doctor.. The other 1 told me, my baby is quite big and high percentage of c-sec coz if baby is big, it's hard to deliver for natural birth. I also dunno who to listen to.. rclxub.gif

It's makes me more worried now.. sad.gif

Hi Rachel,

I totally understand how you feel, because when I was pregnant with problems, I saw a few gynae.  They all tell me different things, without much explanation.  I was so confused and worried until I met Dr Chuah Bee Poh.  He is my doctor who delivered my baby and I'm so glad I met him!

If you need a doctor who can explain things well and clearly.  He is the one!

Hope that he can help you like how he helped me! nod.gif

My BI not so good,i try to describe. I was over due for 5 day already,than i go klinik biasa told the doctor i got some leaking,the doctor help me write a letter to Hospital Putrajaya. Than i bring it to there. I just show the letter & government checkup book to nurse. The nurse direct do the register for me,than the nurse help me checkup again,and my condition is consider serious,and very lucky got enough bad. I try natural give birth,but at last the baby is too big,so emergency c-section. Doctor & nurse at there is nice,but got 1 doctor very sombong,she is pregnant too,but the way she treat patient not good.Anywhere if got second children i also will go there again. No need to scare if emergency section-c will double charge like private hospital.

i tried to search for tropicana medical centre in this thread, but to no avail =/

any1 gave birth at there? and i only heard from friends that the hospital have really great docs ( Dr Surinder and Dr Hoo@Female o&g ), which they only are there for consultation but not to deliver.

would be best to know bout cesarean price! thanks in advance!

hi.. I am also looking for more info on Tropicana Medical Centre (TMC) but seems like its not so popular..
so have you found a hospital/doctor??

By the way, where did you find out that Dr Surinder & Dr Hoo are really great doctors?? and are you sure they do not do delivery??
I am looking at Dr Hoo but if she does not do delivery then have to think twice.

Anyway, I emailed TMC on the charges and here is their reply:

"Antenatal screenings and check-up may vary between RM 80 to RM 600 per
visit, depending on medications prescribed, tests conducted and scans
ordered. Normal vaginal delivery of a child may cost you between RM 4,000 to
RM 6,000 and for elective cesarian section, you may require to prepare RM
6,000 to RM 10,000. These are cost estimates including 2 night's
accommodation in our Twin Sharing / Single Suite Room."

I heard the rooms there are really nice.. but doctors & their service i am not too sure coz not much ppl talking about them..
If anyone got more info on TMC, would really appreciate it..

Just called to ask today. All quotations assuming delivery without complications, without epidural, induce or forceps/vaccuum, etc)

Normal RM3.5k - 4.5k (3D2N) : 1 or 2 person room
Water birth RM6k (3D2N)
C-Sect RM7-8k (4D3N)

Extra stay in single room for mama RM238/ night; RM80/ night for babycot.

However, the nurse advised that they have just received a new management memo about a possible price review (she doesnt know when it will take effect). New prices will likely be as follows:

Normal: RM 5-6k
C-sect: RM 9-11k

Crazy price revision huh!

I think depends on your budget. If you have more budget, you can deliver in high end private hospital. If you have less budget or worried to paucha the budget, then recommended to go to government. If you want to do traditional you can also get people to deliver in your house.

I think there is no option of where is best to deliver. I think important you feel comfortable with the hospital/clinic/ midwife.

If u have the budget of 8-10k for C-sec delivery, or ~5k for normal delivery, then I'd highly recomend Dr Tang Boon Nee from SDMC Subang (previously known as SJMC).
I've just recently delivered my baby through C-sec under Dr Tang. She is an extremely good doctor -- Caring, supportive and professional. She is very good and skillful at procedures -- believe it or not, I didn't really feel the pain of my wound despite it's a C-sec! She is very supportive of breastfeeding, too. Another important point to note, she is definitely not money-minded (most charges of the bill were from the hospital, not the doctor) hence she's always able to give you best advice to help you make decisions.
I'm really glad that I've made the right decision of having Dr Tang to take care of my baby & I throughout pregnancy and delivery smile.gif I'll definitely do the same again should I be pregnant again smile.gif

Delivered under UMSC Prof Eugene Lim RM13K+!!! vmad.gif

3 days 2 nights. Induce followed by caesarian (Doc says must induce 1 week before due date as my wife got gestational diabetes to avoid risk of complications). Also remove two very tiny fibroid in womb maybe that's why so expensive. Later on told me to claim insurance for the fibroid removal.

Actually before that also cost alot. Eversince detect got gestational diabetes, Doc ask us do lots of test and bleeding money because of it.
Even before that ask us to go for CTG everyday 1 week before delivery until delivery so we push the date forward to induce to avoid unnecessary cost. The worse thing is the CTG charges for each day not consistent, 1 day is RM 120+ the next day RM 140+. Now i check with others the gestational diabetes was actually very mild.

If you want extremely thorough check up can try him. But IMHO stay clear of him.

This. I'd like to know too. Currently going there for my monthly appointments, the obgyn is a nice man and he's super popular on saturday mornings. I'm not sure how's his skills with delivery or c-secs, but so far my experience with my monthly checkups were quite pleasant. Twice I visited for emergency during off-work hours cause got bleeding and he came to see me. Dr. Suhaimi Hassan.

My wife just delivered at Pusrawi, Kota Damansara .. CS costing RM5.7k for 3 days 2 night and a single room ..

Doctor is Doc Zarina Bibi, very good doctor (recommended)

Good things - the nurses will take care of you and your baby until u check out
Doctor is superb!

Bad Things - The single room is so so .. not like in KPJ.. but still for wife is comfortable.. just for us husband hehehe!!
No cafe located inside hosp.. so when meal time the nurses will buy some food from near there.. usually they will buy u chicken sup from Ani Sup Utara ..

my wife juz had a c-sec at SJMC subang, surrently (SDMC) on 15th december 2012.. service was awful, after surgery i have to wait for like 3 hours to see my own baby.. and the reason i have to wait dat long is because the doc the nursery is preparing an answer cuz of what the doc do to my child.. i duno how he use the forceps, but theres a cut quite deep at my baby's head.. im still unsatisfied with the amount we pay and the result, wasnt dat gud..

Mother C-sec (3days 2nites) + 2 extra nites cuz of fever = RM8,107.00

Nursery for the baby + 5 days treatment for jaundice = RM2,200++..

I wouldnt recommend any1 to go there, seriously.. My wife have to wait almost 45 mins for the OT room..?? 3 hours waiting for the nursery to clean up the baby..? and the most annoying part is, when u ask for something, if they dun have it, dey didnt tell u.. so u juz keep waiting for hours..

There's only one doc who does the checkups, not sure if he's doing the deliveries as well. His name is Dr. Suhaimi Hassan, and so far my experiences for the monthly checks have been really pleasant. He listens to your worries and takes time to explain things to you.

My checkups usually amount to RM200-RM300 for ultrasound, consultation and prenatal meds.

Wow.. Interesting.. So u did ur monthly checkup there but yet to decide where to deliver am i right? did u try to ask the doc if he's doing the deliveries as well? The checkup price are quite expensive if compare to others i guess..

Yea I haven't decided yet, but most likely will deliver there as I live pretty near. Will decide once I ask their policies, prices and am further along. Only 23 weeks now.

But what I did like was that the doctor came to see me when I called in for emergency during first trimester one night for some bleeding, and another time on a Sunday evening (also there was a lady whose water broke and came in about the same time) in less than half an hour. The nurses have also been really nice, I've never encountered a sour-faced personnel throughout all my visits there.

Does anyone know how much it would cost having a C-Section in Pantai Hospital Penang? My wife is having regular checkups there and is already nearing her due date.

I was advised to go to Lam Wah Yee but since our gynecologist is good and the hospital is near, we decided to stick to Pantai.

Now I read here that C-Section would cost about 12K now I am having second thoughts.

1st time dad-in-waiting here...plan to go look for a specialist gynae in Penang. Currently staying in Bayan Bay, so i guess the most logical hospital to head to would be Pantai. However would like 2nd opinion from you guys about the quality of service, reliability and pricing/packages as I heard mixed opinions about the from friends and family. Thanks in advance!
