Do u believe the shit that CGH said in their defence?


CGH argued that even if Ms Azlin had been treated earlier, there is no guarantee that she would be completely cured and expected to have a normal life expectancy as if she never had cancer.

Actually, they have a point there. But that has an effect on the quantum of damages, not their liability.

how come for elective operation like piles send you to A&E to take blood? was the piles op emergency?

The A&E head of department will be very angry.

If need to order test should not be done from A&E. A&E budget and costs is for emergency cases. Which is why we dont do tests like lipid panel at A&E.

Should have sent you to staff clinic.

It’s a point albeit a useless point.

Here’s a fact: everyone eventually dies. So whether u see a doc to treat your illness is irrelevant as you are just delaying the inevitable. Is that not a crazy theory?!!

the nurse told me to sit on the wheelchair and the hospital attendant push me to A&E dept and there this pinoy doctor took my blood 2 small tubes. Then they prepare me a a bed in the ward and i think after 8pm after dinner I cannot eat anything I had to drink one big jar of weird water taste abit like salt and after that I went to the toilet many times until I pansai water lol then the next day morning the operation bro

I guess if you want a good post-death payout, be a customer of CGH.

However, if you want healing and not dying a premature death, you can surely do better than going to Sinkieland's worst hospital.

now if i visit singapore and emergency need to go hospital i will go private hospital rather then gahmen hospital.

last few years got an old Australian couple took a cruise to asia i not sure if the cruise goes to singapore and cruise ship sailed somewhere between malaysia and indonesia the one of the old couple get really sick and they the ship ask them which country hospital they prefer to go and they asked for singapore hospital.
singapore sent their helicopter to get them.

after the treatment and get well and they get the hospital bill they got a shock in their life if i not mistake somewhere $80k to $100K that is why it came out ii the news in Australia.

That includes helicopter use. They should have bought a travel insurance.

they did bought travel insurance but still have to pay from the pocket cause too expensive.
if only they choose malaysia or indonesia they their travel insurance can cover them all.

if only they knew the bills before they choose singapore hospital i am very sure they choose malaysia hospital
