KK? forget it!

dr soon may be expensive but i am glad i stuck to her through. the last gynae at KK suckz!

the consultation cost more than dr soon, a private practitioner! & waiting time was min 2 -3 hours! & it was frustrating to hv the gynae eager to see u out the door the moment i went in.. c'mon! i waited for so long & paid her so much!

she didnt understd my needs, nor give me advice/alternatives even when scans shows me as a sufferer of PCO. i was then 28 & wanted to start planning for a baby. however, this dr yvonne said i was still young, not to worry & gives me Dianne35 (a contraceptive) for my acne & recommended i stick onto it for at least a yr. I quit seeing her afterthat. i don need such a doctor. in contrast, dr soon patiently talks to me & clears any doubts i have, giving me advice on alternative treatments when she scans me again (in her own room) to check my ovaries for confirmation of PCO.

and then there is the stupid procedure of going somewhere else in the building to Q for scans (not done by doctors but by a lousy fillipino nurse), then wait for results, then collect & Q outside clinic for consultation. my! while these took just 30mins (incl waiting time) at dr soon, it took me half a day at KK. of cos there are unpredicables la .. but the max i ever waited at dr soon clinic was just 1hour .. did i mention the incapable fillipino nurse took almost 20 mins for the scan while dr soon needed just 5mins?
