I'm going for me Antenatal at Prince Court Medical Centre. The delivery expenses that was given by my doctor is -

Antenatal first time - $190
Subsequent - $90 (plus scan)

Normal Delivery (2D 1N stay) -$3600
Baby Charges - $1000

C Section (3D 2N stay) - $7700
Baby Charges - $1000

Optional Items:
Induction (extra night admission + medication used) - $250
Epidural - $1000
Vacuum - $800

All rooms are single rooms with sofa bed for daddy.

Is this expensive?

That's what i thought...it was reasonable. But every time i tell someone I'm going to PCM...they gave me the OH, most expensive hospital comment. I've compared with some other Hospitals...Pantai, DSH..macam sama je. Anyways PCM have increased their room rates...but all still single occupant + daddy sofa + coffee from 150 to 220....on par with other hospitals.

Good.

As expected from a highly ranked private hosp.

But, I would have not think for second time for the price.

Anyway congrats!

Paul Tay is an excellent doctor. No, I don't get commission for referrals to him, but I felt that he deserved the credits for me being successful with my natural birth. My baby was born at 3.92kg on natural birth. For such huge babies, most doctors would have strongly recommended c-sec. Not with Paul Tay. He was pretty supportive of me going for natural birth, but did also highlight to me that there could be a 20% risk of emergency c-sec, if things go beyond his control.

Consultation is usually RM100, inclusive of ultrasound. He will never push or force you to purchase supplements from PCMC. You can just get the medicine names from him, and buy it outside.

Quite a positive doctor, doesn't tell you things that will make you worry too much, and also not much of unnecessary test. With him for 10 months, the only test which I did was the down syndrome test.

Hope the information helps! smile.gif
