Full private (mount A) vs public private (KKH)

I have been seeing my gynae for about 3 years now, and been through cyst removal ops last year. Gynae is very experienced and swift, assuring which comforted me and my husband alot, so we trust him. However, with the pregnancy now, he is too expensive, hence, am considering kkh private. Anyone can share the pros and cons, along with the costs incurred? Thank you!#help_mom #firsttimemom

I totally understand wanting to stay with someone you trust, especially after going through surgery with them. The thing is, KKH private is quite a bit cheaper than a full private gynae, and their doctors are really experienced too since they handle so many deliveries, but you do lose that continuity of care and the same doctor won't necessarily be there on the day you deliver. My friend switched from her private gynae to KKH private midway through and she said the trade-off was worth it cost-wise, though she did miss seeing the same person each time. I'd suggest calling KKH private to get their exact fees and asking your current gynae if he can refer you or if there's a way to stay with him for key appointments while doing routine scans at KKH, since some people do a hybrid approach. What matters most to you between cost, continuity, and that peace of mind factor?
