Having been thru both countries hospital. I can tell you, you are right. Even the public hospital is so much better then in the private in Singapore. Do you know if you have a medical complication during birth the private hospital would actually send you to a public one when that happens?
You are wrong on this count.
The medical buildings may not look flash, but services provided by staff are a lot better than back in Singapore. I won't comment about Melbourne or Sydney because big cities have their issues.
You should get down to patient level to see the kind of shit Singapore medical specialists are providing. The bed-side manners is really wanting. Imagine a doctor telling someone in his 70s that he lived long enough.
This patient is not some Liang PoPo dumb type. Over here, even a someone who is down get dignity in the treatment. The staff are so patient, and ensure the patient is cared for. It is not just one or two cases, it is the culture of a system that really show care and not treating patients like they are some uneducated HDB dwelling dumb people.
There are also a number of specialist counselling services that first world Singapore is lacking.
I know of a life coach who run volunteer camps that take care of the mental well-being of men. You have tattooed big men who are really gentlemen, mentor those suffering from mental depression (over family breakdown), and empower them to live better lives. A former New York banker even come here for treatment.
The Upper East side type who earned $3mil a year but still end up with zero in his bank account + credit card bills.
So, to you, "old folks home" looking hospitals not good enough, then I can understand why you are so unhappy.
In Perth, both RPH and SCGH are well-run medical facilities.
I really hate those keeping up appearance and going through motion. You don't see the hospitals here doing that
Not sure why you are so annoyed? Maybe it is the short winter days?
