My No 3 EDD will be next ye Apr. I use to deliver my No.1 & 2 at KKH. But after deliver my No. 2, i decide to change to deliver at SGH instead. Mine was subsidy type not private. Keen to share your experience?
 


Im currently under dr chua from sgh, I also would like to know mommy 's delivery experience under private at sgh, thks.
 
Delivered my first in SGH, second in NUH. Both are very good hospitals. For both, I was B2 all the way until thr final appt, switched to B1.

Things to note:
1. SGH has a long history of maternity services, so it is very professional
2. BUT SGH does not have pediatric services. So if the nb needs a baby specialist, will need to transfer out.
3. NUH has excellent pediatric service.

Cheers.
 
Hello!

May I know if SGH do not have pediatric services, which doctor(s) will be accessing baby while still in ward? No specialist means no specialist fees chargeable too right? :) Sounds good to me as I paid a lot for pediatric specialist fee (in my own opinion), because I was staying in KKH A1 ward. The pediatric only saw us for 1 minute. It was a super quick one as my baby was healthy and has no problem at all. So I felt quite expensive to pay so much for that short attention.
 
I personally feel such expenses shouldn't be stinged on. Babies might look fine to laymen and only a PD is trained on what to look out.

Anyway SGH has a paediatric department, the last poster is mistaken. How could it not have a paediatric if it has NICU?!
