Private patient, isolation labour and ward + natural birth. I didn't have any post-delivery checkup eventho i was told that kkh will send me the appointment date 2 weeks after discharge. I got a little worried, call kkh and texted my dr. but I was recovering very well tho. they ask me a few questions and reassure me that I did not need a follow-up. But if I do, they advise me to go to policlinic first, cus it is cheaper. or else, I can just text my dr or call kkh to make an appointment.

For my ecsect post delivery, only 1 follow up appointment to check on the recovery. If everything is ok no further follow up required. Same for baby. But you will be charge base on the gynae / PD standard private rate. Depends which gynae, normally consultation alone is about 100+ Personally I prefer private due to bad experiences during my past pregnancies. All at KKH

can be a bit expensive, in my opinion. I don't know your condition, but I have 3 to 5 appointments in a month as I have a cyst. Appointments are for my body checkup after operation and baby vaccinations/checkup. Private patient so around $150 to $300 with medication. I think some can be claimed with insurance and medisave. pls check with your gynae clinic or hospital.

Mine natural birth, they didnt even plan any follow up appointment for me. I went to emergency one time for bleeding turns out to he menses. They told me i am fully recovered to be discharged. However i did experience some sextural pain. Which is abnormal. Luckily now is gone.

aft delivery, only had 1 appt to check recovery of stitching. 100+ baby checkups and vaccination I went for polyclinic as my sis in law who had experiences with private and polyclinic advise me that other than price difference, its the same 😅

Ya agreed. For post delivery in mid Mar 2023 (natural birth in mid Jan and everything is ok), I went back to KKH for a check-up only once (and OGTT), paid around $150 under private. Next appointment is a year later (after the postnatal check up). For baby check up, we went to polyclinic & hospital every few days for jaundice follow up in the first 2 months. Please go to polyclinic if you can. I didn’t know the price difference until one time we had to go to KKH for follow up (during cny). Follow up at polyclinic charged around $15 but KKH (during cny period), the bill was around $90 (under govt subsidy). We also go to polyclinic for bb’s growth check up and vaccination program - most of them are free or price of vaccine. FYI.
