Indian gynae

Post by somna » Wed, 25 Oct 2006 12:11 pm

Hi all, I know this may not be the right forum for this question, but thought response more likely here. I am newly pregnant for the first time. Can anyone please recommend a good gynae, preferably Indian?
Thank you in advance.

I know a Indian Gyneac by name Deepak Joshi and found him to really good/ Knowledgable. He practises in Woodlands Ave 1 and Tanjong Katong Area. If you are interested I can get his contacts for you and the weekdays he practises in those particular areas.

Dr.Annapoorna Venkat

Post by reshkings » Wed, 25 Oct 2006 6:42 pm

Some personal opinion about Dr Annapoorna Venkat....

She's a senior gynae at NUH...I had been to her few times but realised that she kind of hurries you up during every visit. I personally didnt feel comfortable with her because she tried to wrap your case up ASAP... (Of course being a senior doctor - you have to accomodate that)..

She didnt seem to have the personal touch.. (or the comfort feeling that is required from a doc)...

Thanks,reshkings.

I am staying in the west,s o would prefer west/central. Do you know any other good doctor at NUH?

I saw on Mt.Elizabeth website that antental packages are 2000-4000 + doctor's fees also I guess. Can you give me an idea about how much each visit will cost and is there a big difference with NUH charges? I am not a PR/citizen so anyway have to pay the A class fees at public hospitals.

Thank you, Megha!

Thanks very much Reshkings, I guess I'll meet one or two the docs you mentioned before reaching a final decision.
