Private patient at QMH??

I had my first baby in Sydney (Royal North Shore) as a private patient - i.e. my own OB to deliver and my own room.


Can this be done in HK, or do the Obs only deliver at the private hospitals. Is it any cheaper than the likes of the Matilda or Adventist?


Finally, I will need a C - sect delivery due to a pre existing condition so is this also a 5 day stay at QMH

I recieved this information from QMH about 1 year ago so I am not sure if it is still current.
