Raffles Medical's receipt will only state 2 items; no matter what you test for:

a) Consultation/Medicine
b) Lab/Rad/Surgery

Consultation charges are mostly minimal (machiam +++en) about $12.
Lab will depend on what you test for. (I paid $45)

My Doc gave me this damn sad look, then say, you're playing with fire you know?

But he recommended 2 tests only: VD and HIV.
He said since no symptoms...not need for other tests. B'cos these two are the blacklisted ones (tiok sibeh suay).

Tests are conducted in-house at Raffles Hospital. So waiting time average 2-3 business days. Definitely shorter than a week. Doc mentioned that they're quite efficient at it.

Now waiting for my test results...please send good karma my way.

ATTN BOSS: My previous (similar) post was approved. But it did not appear here. So I'm reposting again. 10Q!

Raffles Medical's receipt will only state 2 items; no matter what you test for:

a) Consultation/Medicine
b) Lab/Rad/Surgery

Consultation charges are mostly minimal at about $12.
Lab charges will depend on how many tests they run. For HIV and VD it's $45.

My Doc gave me the grim look, then say, "U're playing with fire, you know?"
But he said that since I got no symptoms...only HIV and VD tests are needed.
Save quite a few $$$ liao...

Also since tests are conducted in-house at Raffles Hospital, results are out within a few days - definitely within a week. Doc said they're qiuie efficient in it.

I'm waiting for my results now..please keep (or start) sending Karma my way!
