Amcare hospital and neonatal emergency facilities

Hello,

I am 20 weeks pregnant with my first and am looking for a good hospital for the delivery. I have been going to BJU but am put off their high delivery prices (which my insurance will not cover fully). I have also been to Amcare once but am not sure how equipped they are with neonatal facilities should there be any issues with the baby once delivered.
Is anyone else going to Amcare and if so do you know anything about their neonatal facilities?? Do you know who the best English speaking Drs are? Any other recommendations for hospitals welcome!

Thanks!!!

Re: Amcare hospital and neonatal emergency facilities

I have delivered 7 weeks ago in BJU but when I knew I was pregnant last year, I had a visit to Dr Li in Jackson and Bailey clinic (I recommend you also this gyno for common check up, as this clinic does not have any delivering facilities, she was really great with me) and she advised me BJU and Amcare. I chose BJU as my health insurance was covering all, but she recommended me also Dr Xu Yun Hua in Amcare Hospital that was (in January 2008) available on Wenesdays and Fridays. I guess this doctor (i think it is a lady) speaks english as I am foreigner and non chinese speaking.
Maybe you can have a check up with this doctor and ask to visit their facilities at the same time?
Hope this will help.

Hey according to Amcare's website (http://www.amcare.com.cn/data/e-amcare/Specialist/20080331/110244.shtml) Dr. Xu and others have specialization in neonatal emergency care.
