Cherina - I recommend you try Union Hospital in Shatin. They have beautiful private rooms and baby can room with you. I am scheduled to deliver there. If you want, PM me and I can give you my doctor's name.

Hi,
We booked at Matilda at 18 weeks, see Dr Michael Rogers - he gets beds reserved for him. It was no problem me getting in.
Good Luck

Catan and Cherina - I got a private room at the Union Hospital when I was 6 months along. The hospital is newer and nicer than Matilda and the rooms are beautiful. But they are in Shatin so they do not tend to get a large expat clientele. But so far, I have found all the staff to be friendly, helpful, and with sufficient English skills. Moreover, they have tried to accommodate all the requests on my birth plan for a natural delivery, baby-rooming in, etc. If you have insurance or if the money or location is not a problem for you, I would recommend looking into the Union. PM me if you have further questions or need to see a specific doctor there.

Hi, Thanks for the advice about Union but I don't really want to change to a different doctor. I'm holding out for Matilda, think I will get in eventually.

Cherina - yes, doctor is most important. i hope it works out for you.
