Hi, would like to know what is the normal charges to see a gynae doctor? I went to tawakal hospital, the gynae doctor gives some medicine, do some scanning of my baby(1st baby, 6 weeks ++ )
and the charges as below:

medicine: rm35
consultation: rm 80
procedure: rm 150

Anyone know what is the "procedure" refers to? I dont really realize this untill i check the breakdown details at home, so not able to ask the person.

Total: rm 265, is this too expensive? The service is so so, the doctor dint talk much, and we already told him this is out first baby, but, he also dint advise what we should dos and donts. A bit disappointed of the service provided with rm265

Any recommandation of good mandarin speaking gynae doctor in KL area?

biar betul! you've been had..

consultation should only cost about rm10 to rm20.
scanning should only cost about rm40 to rm50 i suppose, even a 3D scan would only cost rm90 at certain places, and no right-minded doctor would do a 3D scan at 6 weeks..

but the worse is the procedure charge, what procedure did he perform exactly??? that's the biggest rip-off..

you're better off going to reputable private clinics for check-ups at this stage, only go to the hospital (where you plan to deliver) at 20++ weeks for what we call a booking visit..

oo ok i misread, so he is actually charging rm150 for the scan (which is still way too expensive).. rm80 for consultation is definitely expensive, only the medicine charge looks reasonable to me..

imho 265 is normal for private hospital, 280 is the average. my wife and i did checkups at prince court medical, around 340 per visit. but since the doc is so unfriendly, better go somewhere else. no point paying so much also but did not receive equivalent input.

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)..
