Hi Angel,
You can try Dr Terrance Tan at Mt Alvernia if you don't mind. My boy is now 15mths and all along have been consulting him. He is a very patient and friendly doctor. I always bring along a long list to ask question and he never showed me any impatientness.

Hi Helena,
Can you tell me how much does Dr Ong E K charge for second consultation onwards and does he practise at the AMK branch?

Thanks, Helena.
Both my kids goes to Dr Ngiam form Singapore Baby & Child Clinic @Gleneagles (7th Floor). He is very experience and patience. Note: you got to make appointment first. Usually long queue. I think he also practise @ SBCC - Ang Mo Kio during the evening on one of the weekdays.

Hi All, Pls do not choose Dr Tan Kay Soon from MT Alvernia at Wonderland clinic as ur pd as he is the worst pd i ever met.he is rude and stuck up!Do u all know where to file a complaint against him coz he told me:"Although the questions u ask r stupid, but i will still answer it n i feel humilated.Thanks@
I wish to add on.. Dont go to Katong Baby. He claimed that my baby had allergy to detergent that is why she had rashes. When we got home, she vomitted and had fever slightly later. When i call him, he said.. but she did not vomit in the clinic or have fever and dun bother coming to the A&E at Eastshore (where he is during the night), just feed her glucose will do. my baby did not drink milk for half a day and after i fed her water, she vomitted the water. I rushed her to TMC and was diagnosed with viral infection. I did a check with my GP. She mentioned that this guy is notorious in the medical circle.
Dear all,
If you intend to deliver at TMC, CHOOSE Singapore Baby and Child Clinic located on the 5th floor. All the doctors at SBCC are good. You can check around to verify what I say.
At all costs, AVOID going to the clinic on the 3rd floor. My husband and I had a nightmare. The PDs there are known to be sub-standard.
mummylynne,
Lodge a complaint with the Singapore Medical Association or Ministry of Health. Better still, write to forum page.

hi helena
i didn't sign with them... cos i don't really feel good abt AAT. i suspect she might over "react" and made my 1 week old bb went thru all the pains and stress (under ICU for a week, scanning, x-ray, starving for 5 days)... cos at the end, she could not even tell us the problem.
u can also reach me at my email [email protected].

hi, joey
I have heard before of this method that mummylynne mentioned .. my aunt used to do that for her son before he goes for his jabs and it works! dun buy lin yang coz its too cooling for the baby, pao shen is fine. you can buy it fm Hock Hua Medical Shops, they usually have promotions like buy one get one free.
also, can anyone recommend a good PD in ESH?
thks!

Mummulynne,
Don't you find that the PD you mention at Hougang charges are very high? Compared to PD in KKH, in fact more! Just a normal clinic without air-con!
I was charge for more than 60 bucks for only minor cough. Now I bring my baby to see doctor at Hougang polyclinic, much more cheaper, only 4 bucks and medication 70 cents only. The doctor there can handle very well for minor ailment. But of course when it is more serious, I will bring my baby; to KKH Children A&E Dept. The charges is $65 inclusive of medication.

Hi adora,
Although i'm not a mum yet (going to be soon)..but I've come into contact with SBCC Drs b4 (at work).
Dr Ngiam T E is experienced, very patient, very approachable & nice to staff, parents & gentle to the kids.
Dr William Yip is very experienced & well-known for paediatric cardiology (kids with heart problems). He's also good with handling kids.
Dun have a very strong recall of Dr Yip...but he's also ok.
Dun worry...the Drs at SBCC (as far as i know) are generally approachable & friendly & experienced.

Hi,
My baby was a patient of Dr Thom*s Wong(used to be in Gleneagles and now shifted to Raffles). He was recommended by my gynae. Baby visited him twice, was quite ok with him. But once I was having fever and suspected that I would have bee infected by dengue fever. Called him once in the morning and the nurse said that he is busy and left a message. Till later afternoon, I gave the clinic a call again and wasn't able to talk to the doc. Was disappointed with the service and felt kinda neglected. I was waiting to breastfeed my baby.
So now baby is patronising "The Kid's Clinic" in Rivervale Mall. Her name is Aileen if I am not wrong, very friendly, patient and detail doc. She explained to me clearly what is 6in1 jab without me asking for explaination. I like her attitude....

Hi ladies, I've heard that Dr Terence Tan is really good but there is always a long queue to see him. Goes the same for Dr Koh Poh Kian (SBCC AMK). Now my girl is under Dr Ho Nai Kiong from Kinder Clinic at Paragon. I've got bad experience with Edmund Koh at Central Plaza.

Hi mums, getting a reliable PD for your child is important. However, if the PD always has a long queue waiting, it can be very frustrating.
My son used to be under Dr Koh PK fm SBCC AMK. I made appt for first patient 830am but still have to wait like crazy as the doctor can come in like 2 hours later. Now my daughter is under Dr Ho N.K from Kinder Clinic Paragon for her jabs.
