think she means $30K HKD and $100k HKD...otherwise that's even cheaper than the public system! LOL!

Holy, that really adds up! You might want to consider splitting your antenatal with private and public so you enjoy most of your insurance for a nice hospital stay.
I also wish I had a nice insurance package like that. Or insurance. I`ll be delivering public.
Oh, and if you`ll be in the Union hospital area, try Dr. Ng there. Really really nice doc, not like the arrogant ones I have seen recently.

thank you very much for all the information. so very expensive! a friend recommended Sally Ferguson and Matilda so i'm going to Sally for my first appointment and take it from there. looks like my insurance will cover most of it, but not all of it.
LeahH were you happy with Sally?

Yes, Sally's delivered both my kids - I really like her. She has a no nonsense approach which suited me, but was really lovely when I had little issues and needed a more gentle touch.

Hi Ding dong
It includes the quick u/s they do at each appointment but not the longer u/s at 14, 20 and 28 weeks. The package is limited to patients taking a 4 bed room only unfortuantely.
