Prenatal checkups and obstetrics cover the ongoing medical care a woman receives from confirmation of pregnancy through delivery. This includes routine checkups (blood pressure, weight, urine tests, fundal height), blood work and screening tests, ultrasound scans at key milestones, glucose tolerance testing, and monitoring for conditions like gestational diabetes or preeclampsia. As the pregnancy progresses, visits become more frequent, and the obstetrician or clinic also handles birth planning, referrals for specialist scans if needed, and the delivery itself, whether at the clinic's partner hospital or an attached maternity unit.
In Puchong, this care is offered through a mix of standalone O&G clinics, GP clinics with visiting specialists, and hospital-based obstetrics units. Before booking, check which hospital the doctor is credentialed at (since this determines where you'll deliver), whether the same doctor sees you throughout or you rotate between a team, what's included in the checkup package versus billed separately, and how they handle after-hours emergencies. It also matters whether the clinic has its own ultrasound equipment onsite or refers out, since that affects both cost and convenience over a pregnancy that involves a dozen or more visits.
