After 2 scans at her GP and considering that the GP doesn't do deliveries, we decided to check out the facilities and services at our nearby specialist hospital. No drastically bad reviews so far, and a friend recommended a Dr.Neoh.
Standard specialist centre. We've been here before for our earlier firtility tests and to visit friends who were patients. However, the Dr.Neoh experience started off very strange. Imagine a thin haired bow-tied man in his 50's with thick glasses with "mad professor" movements. Ok I'm exaggerating, but am not too far off. After an initial chat, it was time for the highlight of our visit..... my 2nd scan (GF's 3rd by now)
"Normal, healthy, so far so good. No movement because your baby is sleeping"
Here came a scary part...
"Let's wake your baby up", and he proceeds to jab the ultrasound into GF's tummy a few times to shake the baby up! "...still sleeping..." shakes some more.
At this point, GF and I were looking at each other more than at the screen. Has this bow-tied comedian gynae gone a bit off somewhere already? Well I was telling myself what he's doing logically possible as the mother does shake quite a bit when walking too. "Ah see, your baby's awake", he says, and we see the little hands and feet wriggling on the screen. Too bad I only got a photo. Next time, I'll make sure I get a video too.

Dr. Neoh? WTF, we nearly lost our baby due to his wrong diagnosis. He concluded that our baby boy was a fibroid and asked us to discard him. Luckly we went to the other doctor for 2nd opinion.
ReplyDeleteVery good experience dr I can say. I delivered my two little boy in Damansara hospital. Too bad the price of c-section in Damansara incresed to 15 k++ plus minus gst. Dr professional few still remain the same but the hospital charge very expensive .
ReplyDeleteThe doctor fees still remaind the same. Btw I like dr Neoh so much but too bad the kpj Damansara hospital is really bad. They don't have the 5 star services but they charge even more expensive compare prince courts.
