Quote:Horror of horrors, there was no cardiologist there. My friend desperately called one of several private cardiologists she knew personally, being a doctor herself. But what could a layman have done in similar circumstances? Nothing.
Neither Alexandra Hospital nor Tan Tock Seng outside of office hours has the resources to handle acute myocardial infarctions (AMI) or heart attacks. ............. unquote
This is pure nonsense and libellous. go to their website http://www.ttsh.com.sg/new/clinicalspecial/cardiology.php#specialists
. There are quite a few very senior cardiologists there with qualifications from all over the world and they are all trained to managed heart attacks. in fact quite a few visiting cardiologists there from private sector eg Mount Elizabeth, gleneagles etc. In fact I learnt from my friends in MOH they actually managed more heart attacks than National Heart Centre!!!!! This was audited according to Moh sources. Visited their website and saw a cardiology department with all facilities. Personal opinion and from alot of friends that TTSH cardiologists are in fact very good and competent. waiting time to see heart specialists there very long as too many referrals. commonsense would tell there is hidden agenda somewhere or she got her facts totally wrong . It is as good as saying National neuroscience institute is not qualified to handle stroke patients. All hospitals are qualified to handle heart attacks as common emergencies otherwise why have A&E ?????

She meant after office hours at the casualty dept and she meant a specialist(Cardiologist). In the past, you will never find a specialist after office hrs, now the trend is to cover some bases and Singapore has to follow suit.

Certain specialist are on call but not necessarily for Emergency.

For Political VIPs, the specialist used to be provided with special pagers.

Old Fart had said there can never be equality between people. Even in China, in the days of Mao suits, the party bosses had theirs lined with fleece.

So in a nutshell, if a member of the political elite and an ordinary citizen were to arrive at the same time in the hospital and requiring immediate specialist attention and only one is in attendance, guess who will make the cut in that kind of close call?

Its the very same reason he lost his bundle in London when he did not get the treatment for his wife that he gets here. Made a scene, rave and ranted about it to "Today" which the reporter dutifully reported and got fucked.

Jeez man, what will this forum be without you? By the way wasn't the old fart, in his honour given "The Key To London?" That didn't weigh in enough to get him preferential treatment for "The Hand In The Shadows?"
