Half-half Route

[sallyklc]

Hi,

I'm newly pregnant! Very excited, but completely clueless being my first. I'm considering going the half-half route at the Queen Mary Hospital, but unsure which private doctor would be comfortable with this, and still provide a caring service. Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated!!

I heard that Sally was suspended. Does anyone know what happened?

Is she any good? I have read good review on her as well

Sally had an altercation with hospital staff. She is brilliant with patients and is excellent with first time mums.

Thank you so much for the kind advise. I'll try to make an appointment with her and see.

Are there any OB recommendation in Central? Since I work in Sheung Wan...

I'm seeing Dr. Cora Ngai. She is known to be very good with high risk pregnancies and we've found her very knowledgable. She was supportive in going the private or public route.

I think most private docs are ok with it or at least the 2 I've seen have no issue. I've seen Dr Robert Stephenson in Central who was lovely although pricey but very good. Also Dr Patrick Chan whom I didnt like as much but he is also clearly good just personal pref. they understand without health care that private is a pricey route. Also the annerly does a half half package where they can do the tests for you. The public system are quite happy to share your care as long as you keep them posted.

Hi all- I'm in the same boat- I'm 6 weeks and clueless! We are thinking of doing the half half route. I think I am in area for the Queen Elizabeth. I have a referral letter but do I need to make a booking to register at the hospital? and then should I just make bookings to see the ob for 12 and 20 week scans?
Thanks in advance for any help.
