Yes, we are in the process. And I hope that God will soon lead us to THE one that He had really planned for us. Because the one we’re seeing now doesn’t seemed to be
We’ve only seen Dr Jean Woo from Gleneagles twice. She always rushes us off each visit before I get to voice my concerns. She doesn’t explain my conditions after worrying us even when I asked twice. Am I supposed to google it myself because she needs to attend to her many patients?
During my last visit with her on Monday, she forgot — or maybe she thought she did but didn’t — to save my ultrasound scan images into my pendrive. So we’re missing week 11’s record. When I called the clinic, the nurse asked me to get it during my next visit, which is next month. But would it really still be in the machine after a month?
Sigh.
I’ve made 2 appointments next week to see 2 different Obstetrician & Gynecologist — both are also from Gleneagles. Dr Tan Lay Seng was highly recommended by his patients through Mead Johnson’s forum, and another lady doctor called Dr Teresa Chow.
My hope was to at least get a choice between a female and a male doctor. I was devastated to find out that Dr Chow doesn’t accept expecting mothers after 12 weeks into their pregnancy. Her nurse then recommended Dr Jimmy Tang to me.
So my initial plan of potentially having a female doctor is now bumped.

Eh. Dr Tan Lay Seng is a man wor. Sure is the same obgyn?
Hopefully he doesn’t train rail us next Friday and leave us more lost than Dr Jean Woo.

Hope you’ve managed to find a good doctor. He/she should not rush you through your appointments and most importantly – he/she should respect your birth plan!
