Late Survey

I'm now in week 33 of my pregnancy, meaning there's less than 2 months time I will be going to deliver my little princess. All the while I did my prenatal check up at Sunway Medical Center. But yesterday only I found out that their charges for delivery is quite expensive. There's info that their normal deliver charge had increased to around 6k from Feb 09 onwards. That's far from my expectation for a normal delivery. What if, touch wood, I need a C-sec? Then will cost me 10k?? That's out of my budget.

Further more, it seems like the hospital still under expansion reno, there will only has 1 single room available. I'm actually a quite dependent person that always need my hubby to accompany me. So i definitely want a single room so that darling can stay with me for that particular night.

I got some info from forum with quite a good review of Columbia Asia Hospital at Bandar Puteri. Their charges is around 3k for normal delivery, even C-sec also around 5k. That's really more affordable. Due to financial and room facilities prob, after discuss with my darling we decided to pay a visit to the gynae Dr. Ng(who had good review from the forum also) at Columbia Asia on Mon.

Besides the financial and room prob, actually there's another concern also, my usual gynae Dr Jason will be away on holiday from this 30th till 9th April. My due date is on the 24 April. It means if I'm going to deliver 2 or more weeks earlier, Dr Jason will not be there. That's why I need to get another gynae. One more advantage to choose Columbia Asia is that the hospital is so near to my house, just 5 minutes drive will do and no need to worry bout traffic jam.

Thus, with all the above reasons Columbia Asia most probably will be our choice.
