Hi all, I have a positive test on home pregnancy kit, and would like to visit gynae to confirm..
Can you please share with me if any recommendations for gynae. I'm staying in cck. Appreciate your help!! Thanks!!
 


Dr CK Khoo at MEHN and Dr. kowa at mt e orchard. They have diff approaches
dr khoo is a very cool.
dr. Kowa is very senior and fatherly approach
 
If you don't mind going private, you can try Dr Ben Choey. He was my gynae during my first pregnancy, and his clinic is just at AMK.
 
Hi mummies, as a mummy of more than 1 kid, I would strongly NOT recommend Dr Kowa for C-section. And if you have alrdy taken his package, please do your own homework to choose your anaesthesia doctor and not his recommendation! I was given way too much drug that I did not get to experience the post delivery joy with my newborn. I felt so nauseous and dizzy all the way until I was pushed into my ward. And it’s not my first C-section so I know what to expect and this was definitely not the way it should have been!

Not only that, his nurses did not do a good job in the removal of my non dissolvable thread post operation, and left half of it inside my wound for more than 6 weeks and did not even call me to follow up. It all started with them telling me that it’s an urgent need to remove the (wire like) thread by 3rd week postnatal as it’s a foreign object (in their own words), then until they did a shit job, and they changed their story to “it’s ok to leave it in there for 2-3months…” seriously? And I had to rock up to the clinic when I start to feel pain at the spot where the thread got stuck. And all the nurses did was to brush my problem aside and said IT’S OK, not a big deal. Really? This is the care for mummies after delivery?

Anyway based on my experience, I would not recommend him for C-section mummies. FYI he is a pro- c sect doctor and from what I heard from my friends, he likes to have the babies born at his convenience, as he used fear to induce my friend to deliver naturally by early week 39 when all her 3 previous kids were born post 40 weeks.

Based on my experience, I think there are a lot more better doctors than here. And Mount E orchard is not really that great anw.
 
I'd prefer to have my kids delivered by a female gynae - though I have seen male gynaes who are also excellent and have wonderful bedside manners. For my first baby (also c-sect) I went with Dr Regina Ng (I've met her husband Chris who's also a gynae), and her stitches are neat. Had no problems with her and she was very thorough during our prenatals. Her clinic prices are on the high side though but the quality of her services can justify that.
 
I don't want to just take it easy or anyhow restrict myself in the early stages of my pregnancy. I still want to pursue my hobbies and light exercise. Otherwise it would be quite sian (boring/irritating) lah, and my gynae (OB/GYN) said it's good for the baby to continue doing what I enjoy without getting too stressed out.
