Packages for Thomson Medical Centre and Mount E Novena
Got these from my gynae yesterday! This does not include the doctor’s fees. I believe she charges around 10k in doctor’s fees for csect, not sure if that’s normal or a little on the high side. Anyone wanna share how much their doctors’ fees are for planned csect? #pleasehelp #advicepls #firstbaby
Hi mummy! Recently delivered at Thomson, Dr Tan Kai Lit was my gynae. AMAZING doctor! His fees was $3500-$5000 for csection. As i have to go thru emergency c section, he really HELPS me alot in the fees! He wont be pushing you to pay so much as he always understands that we as parents need to use ALOT of money not only to pay for gynae fees but also hospital bills.. in total my bill was close to $20k. BUT as im facing emergency c section surgery type 4.. my insurance helped me alot.. so i just received a cheque from thomson at $5k back. So make sure you keep all your receipts!! But lets say u need to go for emergency c section, make sure u have insurance, doctor will come down and talked to you and inform you to standby another $3-4k in hand. IF lets say its too high and you not able to fork out, he do suggest that he is able to send you to KK Hospital but with a diff gynae. Unless you have a gynae that u know in KK he will try his best to get them for you. But i sticked to him as ive been seeing him thru out my appointments. So you can try talk to your gynae abt this. I paid for doctor fees plus baby detailed scan, glucose and all including baby delivery deposit is at $6587. This is only because i only get to know i was pregnant at 17weeks. Fees might go high up if i start from scratch.
Read moreMy gynae’s estimated doctors fee is at 8.8k-9.4k for planned csect, at Mt E Orchard. The clinic nurse did say his fee is on the high side, and the financial counselling form also states that the fee is above 75th percentile of MOH benchmark, I had to sign a declaration that I acknowledge this.
2021, Dr Adrian Woodworth, Csect $3.5K excl GST. Not sure about current rates.
$10k for csect is very high .. my gynae charges less than $5k
Back in 2021 it was around 5-6k
