Goh yau Hong at mt Elizabeth

I second this. Kind and not money minded ENt doctor. Operated for me end 2017. Very nice and patient doctor.

 

Brought my Son to see him for ear infection and very thorough job done. Cares more for patient instead of earning money.

 

My company insurance covers my children as well and most specialist Doctors when seeing pateients that are covered by international insurer, . easily charge few hundred each visit. But doctor Goh Yau Hong didn’t.. in fact he didn’t even charge my Son and myself sometimes even when I ask the nurse anything for me to sign off.. clinic staff says no. He is more concern with treating patients than to make the extra money.

 

Skill wise is he the best In Singapore... this I don’t know but I trust my throat with him. His skill as surgeon is good too.. every time see me will wanna look at my operation scar and keep saying.. “beautiful..” like an artist admiring his work

Ha he's doing well enough lah. Took over his neighbours unit. Heh.

 

He's the one who did rfa to my nose also. He's a genuinely friendly guy. His partner is more serious, haha which is more like my own personality lol.

Doing well is one. Doctor sure will do well financially if patient count is healthy

 

not outright pushing medication, procedures, operations for the love of money.. and Taking time to explain and help patient is rare in Singapore.

 

I just had an encounter with another Respiratory doctor due to my recent hospitalisation that fell into the category of always asking patient to take medication Long term..

 

Doctor was referred by hospital, seen me 2x due to my pneumonia and concluded that I have chronic asthma and it’s in my gene.. don’t know on what basis he comes to that conclusion.. scary scary

For surgeons, they are most focused on technical excellence and good outcome from surgery.

Communication etc is not their forte.

Often the best surgeons are not the most friendly or good at PR lol  [laugh]

The urologist who did my op, also won't win any PR awards. 

 

ENT is more of a hybrid, most of their procedures are in clinic setting.

as long as surgeon says "very good. recovering well. can go home tomorrow." that is good enough for me.  [laugh]

 

PR skills good or not does not matter.

Going to be under his knife soon to cut a lot of tissue away to clear my airway - Adj Assoc Prof Toh Song Tar in SGH. Anyone operated by him before? His credential is impressive googling about him.

I do recommend my pts to Dr Goh as well. 

Highly recommended dr Goh, myself and my hub did nasal turbinates reduction by him. Subsequently recommended a friend to him. All of us are very happy. 

 

I hve visited 2 other ENT before decided to work with dr Goh.

Hi all, just wish to do a shoutout to @Lala81, @pChou, @Chucky2007 and other whom I may have missed out. 
 

Thanks for the recommendation of Dr. Goh Yau Hong of Mt E. 
 

I booked an appt for my wife for nasal turbinates (if I got the term right). He was friendly, experienced and patient oriented.  
 

Highly recommended. 💪🏽💪🏽
