if you can afford it, private. no debate.
if you cannot afford it, then govt.

msian healthcare is a good , both private and govt. govt hospitals are not at all that bad. some of the best minds in medicine are still in govt service. but bear in mind, the long waiting lists.

No doubt government hospitals have good doctors, if we meet the good ones we are lucky.  But what if we don't? All the stories we heard about government hospitals....only sad ones are told.  How regretful parents feel after something bad happened to their newborn baby, but it's too late!

Dr Chuah is the best O&G you can find in Tung Shin hospital!  ( because I have seen the other drs...)  let me share my experience with you!  From the beginning till my delivery...

During my first visit to see him, while waiting outside his room together with his other patients, I waited for sometime.  His patients told me I  will understand later why have to wait so long!  This doctor is definitely worth waiting for!  

After seeing him, I totally agree.  Even though I waited for about 1 hr +, it was worth the wait!  I had visited a few O&G and none of them could settle or answer all my problems with much more expensive consultations.  But Dr Chuah managed to settle all my problems and answered all my questions in just ONE VISIT!  He is not a 5 min doctor, he listens to my problems,  check in detail and gentle during checking.  Then he spend time explaining to me what is the problem and how to handle it! 
Charges are reasonably cheap for the type of care he provides!  Because he even gave me his mobile number for easy contact. 

In the middle of my pregnancy, I started to bleed.  I remember it was a Sunday nite, i was so scared...I called Dr Chuah and soon he was in the hospital to see me.  I was admitted for 2 nights for bed rest.  I was very worried but during my stay in the hospital Dr Chuah was very caring and reassuring.  He comes back to hospital every night to check on me which I really appreciate.  Luckily everything was ok!

Then i attended his antenatal talk, which he conducts every two months in the hospital.  This I strongly recommend anyone who is pregnant to attend.  Because, it is FREE to attend and there is a lot of information and preparation about pregnancy and delivery process Dr Chuah will teach in his talk.  The most unbelievable thing I heard was Dr Chuah do not do episiotomy, which later i found out it means he do not cut the private part during delivery!!! I was very happy to hear that!   Because that is one of the thing I'm most worried about.  But I find it hard to believe....really can deliver without cutting??

Then my time to deliver came...I was pushing for so long, I don't even know and later my husband told me it was about an hour!  But Dr Chuah was very patient the whole time, encouraging me.  I was worried he will vacuum my baby but luckily not. And true enough at the end I gave birth to my baby after 1 hour of pushing without cutting my private parts and no tear or injury!!!  
I'm really thankful I met Dr Chuah! 

How much did we spend for delivery? In total 2200 including baby's charges, for the care we received I think it is definitely value for money! 

If i knew this dr earlier was the best thing for me . I was being caserean by another dr .. Does dr chuah support vbac? Anyone manage vbac under him?

I have just started my pregnancy about 8 weeks and am looking for a gynae to follow up on my pregnancy...Based on here, Dr. Chuah seems like a very good and caring gynae...how about the other doctors in Tung Shin?

Hi Jadegal,

I have seen all three doctors in that hospital.  After seeing Dr Chuah, I decided he is the only gynae that I will see from now on!  Try him out yourself, you will know what I mean

Hi Purplebug,

Thanks for sharing your experience to everyone of us, appreciate if you can answer my question. 
Normally how much does it cost when seeing Dr Chuah for check-up?
My wife is currently in week 14 and we do regular checkup in KKIA.
From your point of view (or experience), when should I start to bring my wife to see Dr. Chuah for check-up?

Thank you... 

Highly recommend Dr Chuah Bee Poh from Sunway Medical Velocity..he’s passionate, knowledgeable and less calculative.
He’s also always at the hospital, I was admitted at 8PM++ and he’s there to check on me at 8:30PM and was back again in the morning at 8AM - much dedication.
But the wait time is crazy with or without an appointment.
