hi,

I am 14 weeks preg. and have been seeing Dr. Ho from day 1. Like some other ladies have sed, he is really gently and makes one feel really comfortable - but I wonder if others who also go to him ( or used to ) could share some information about their experiences?
Esp. since I have wanted to talk about birth options with him for a while now - and Dr. Ho just says that it really is too soon - and then having read about his tendancy to NOT let nature take its own course - well, I REALLY would like to hear form other ladies about their own experiences -a nd how they dealt with them.
I am new here in HK - and really do not know anybody who has lived here a bit and fairly recently had a baby .

anxiously,
Ginger

Hi Ginger

I used to live in HK and am planning to relocate to HK this summer and I am pregnant with baby no. 2. When I was preggers with bub no. 1 in HK, i saw Dr Ho who was quite nice but because SARs was in HK I actually gave birth in Syd. I have 2 other friends who had their babies with Dr Ho and both were normal deliveries. I think he is quite good but I have recently been recommended to a Dr Alex Doo whom I told has v good bedside manners and will give you a lot of time if you have questions and want to discuss abt your birth plan. I have also spoken to Dr Doo recently whilst I am in TKy and he was v helpful.

U will find that quite a lot of drs in HK have a tendency to go for C-sections because it is more convenient for them and they can charge more.

Let me know if u have any other questions but hope this helps. BTW have you decided where u will have the baby?
 
Dr. Ho's New Info

I've been going to Dr. Ho ever since I got pregnant. He's been nothing but GREAT. I live in China and he has always been extremely accomodating when it comes to scheduling appointments. The waiting room times never go beyond 10 minutes. If I have any questions, Kelly his nurse will never hesitate to calling me back in China. I highly recommend Dr Ho.

Thsnks so much

Thank you ladies, for sharing your experiences. I am nervous about the whole birth prcess, and really found my Dr.s reluctance to discuss birth options a little scary. Hopefully things will get better after my next visit with him.


Natowong: you asked about where we plan to have our baby - dunno yet - like I sed, we really want to have as natural a birth as possible - we actually like the idea of having a water birth - but still have to find out which hospitals/birthing centres in HK accomodate/encourage such options.

any recommendations? be much appreciated!

I just gave birth on 7/19/05 at Matilda Hospital and I must say that Dr. Ho was EXCELLENT! I had a csection and the midwives that looked at the stitching could not stop commending Dr. Ho. I hear it takes 30 minutes to stitch back together after a csection..but Dr. Ho took his time and went on for one hour. The midwives at the hospital say that Dr. Ho has a reputation for doing a great job.
 
Congratulations!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS on YOUR NEW BABY!!

2 good experiences with Dr. Ho

:doctor:
Hi, I have been seeing Dr. Ho for over 3 years! I have 2 daughters, 2.5 yrs old and 1 years old. And now I got pregnant again 10 wks. I gave birth to my 2 sweeties by c-section since my back bone born S-shaped, and so my hip do not have enough space for my new borns to go through. Dr. Ho is an excellent doctor and gave me 2 happy experiences while giving births at HK Adventist Hospital. Since I expected C-section, Dr. Ho gave perfect schedule which is 2 wks before expected date. So that I wouldn't have chance to have the unnecessary pain. And during the C-section, Dr. Ho gave me a warm and relax feeling and I could listen to my favourite gentle song in the surgery room. After giving birth, Dr. Ho would visit you every day. after seeing him in the every morning, I felt like comfort for the rest of my day. :cheerlead

Hm.... in conclusion, Dr. Philip Ho is excellent. I introduced him to my friend, who gave birth to twins (boy and girl) few months ago, she has the same comment to him. :gl:
