Medical care in Singapore

I am hopinh someone may have some advice. I live close to Singapore in a country that does not do any prenatal screening so I am looking to fly to Singapore for either an amnio or Harmony test. I have been in touch with KKH which is very expensive and I have also emailed TMC who have yet to get back to me.
Has anyone got experience of either hospital and are they both pretty central and easy to get to? TIA

Singapore is pretty small so both are easy to get to although they are not in the central area. I don't have experience at either places but TMC is the preferred choice for a lot of expats having babies as the Dr's there are very open and more westernised in their approach to childbirth. The care in Singapore is good across the board so you should be fine with either. Maybe try NUH also as that is the teaching hospital and also a govt hospital (as is KK) so its cheaper.

TMC will certainly be more expensive than KK as it is a private clinic.

I had exceptionally competent pre-natal screening at KK. If there was anything serious that needed to be double checked, any private Dr would send you there anyway.

Thanks very much . I've not heard back from TMC anyway so will check out NUH too.

Papooshka. ....Thanks for the suggestion of NUH. They have got back to me and are $700 cheaper than Kkh. :)
