Anyone know about "ampang grand eagle hospital" or "Gleneagles hospital" Is the gynae doctor there good?

340 is normal for prince court, but 265 is expensive even for a private hospital.. pusrawi in kota damansara (different management with pusrawi tun razak) charges rm70 on average for maternity visits (including scans).. basically you can get a much more reasonable price, for the same level of care (if not better)..

Of coz.. don't expect excellent service like those big hospitals..but I'm alright with them. Even went there for my son's jabs..

We are new to this "baby" thingy. so we dont really know what to ask, but prefer to listen the advices from the professional

i see. i thought it was average since in first few months pregnancy we went to kpj and got charged that much each visit.
anyway, thanks for the info.

Places like KPJ, Gleneagles, tawakal, SJMC..please expect around that region. Unless you go to small maternity hospitals..then it will be lesser than RM100.

Hi, my fren told me the SJMC just charged her around rm50! but this was 1-2 years ago, not sure the price now.

if it's rm50..then good lor.. check also on their delivery charges. btw...my advise..find a hospital near where you live..in case of any emergency.

My experience sending my wife to Ampang Puteri Specialist Hospital... and all my three kids birth at the hospital and the charges for pregnancy checkup below RM100... normally I've to pay around rm75 (consultation & scanning) and the total with meds ranges RM100 - RM150. Oh, he's not speak mandrin...

For normal delivery charges at the hospital (3 days & 2 night):
4 bedded - RM2150 (if not mistaken)
2 bedded - RM2450 (if not mistaken)
1 bedded - RM2650 (this the normal package I took)

but upon discharge the charges I need to pay is less than RM3k.

my doctor in damansara specialist charges RM 40 for consultation and RM 80 for ultrasound. medicine i will get the prescription and buy from family doctor.

first time consultation is a lot more expensive.

Dr Guna in Damansara specialist charged me RM 350 for first visit. did not go back to him after that cuz his waiting hours is so long....

My wife also pregnant for 7weeks +

Last week went to see a doc recommended by a friend in Tmn Connaught Cheras Dr.Asokan he also practice in Pantai cheras.

First time went he did scan ultrasounds (with two photos) plus consultation only RM70.

Of course he is very friendly and soft spoken. Overall experience is good good

did he tells you what to do and donts? or the doctor only answer when you ask?

To my knowledge..doc would advise dos and don't when there's problem (ie spotting, cramps). if it looks normal and you never complained anything..then they don't say much unless you have questions.

In fact, there's not much dos and don't in the medical sense (if pregnancy is ok)..it's only our cultural beliefs that has the dos and don't

sometimes i feel our docs are too quiet.. they are excellent in birthing and all but wont talk much unless u ask.. maybe it is a good thing?

hehhe maybe my mindset is wrong. when i pay more, i expect more input from doctor
after read your reply, now i have a question here, actually what are the differences if i visit a doctor who costs me rm50 and rm 200? if both are them are just quiet and say nothing? it is really a dilema to go for expensive or cheaper doctor

sigh, headache

I believe in seeing a doctor that you are most comfortable with. Identify where you want to deliver..and see if you are comfortable with the doctor there.

Of coz budget also plays a part too..but if you are ok with any cost..then your only problem would be finding the right doctor.

the clinic name is called Dr Asokan?

if u ask me, better go govt KKIA... free & accurate.. they do all kinds of checks for u.. even if u go to your pvt gynae, and its a famous one, it takes ages to get appt and yet still wait 2-3 hrs...

when i went for first time check up with Dr Guna (Damansara specialist hospital), i was 2-3 weeks pregnant. Cannot see the sac yet.

He told me to wait for another month for check up. Don't talk about those can do or cannot do first. Confirm whether its pregnancy first and pray hard baby is ok. cuz first 12 weeks is very unstable. Take my folic acid.

while my GP advise, don't simply eat medicine. Best if don't take any medicine to prevent harming the baby.
