I was at Alexandra Hospital earlier last week to take Puji, our helper, to get her hand stitched after she cut her finger. Unfortunately for her, she also cut her tendon partially for which she had to go & get it stitched up. For the first time since we came to Singapore, I went to Alexandra Hospital. Located across town (we stay in the east and this is in the West).
I must say I was very impressed with the Hospital. Starting with the Emergency ward & the doctors, all were helpful & went that extra step to make us, and I am sure, the other patients, comfortable.
What impressed me was the "spare glasses" (photo on top). I thought it was a very kind gesture, considering the possibility, that many people may rush to the Emergency Ward and may have forgotten to take their glasses along. Indira was curious if people actually use & leave those glasses back. I suspect, yes.
The No Smoking was another nice touch - unlike the stern "No Smoking" warnings that most of us are used to.
Good customer service.
Not that I want to go back there (after all it is a hospital), but I did come back with some good impressions - which I did not get when I visited some of the "private" hospitals here in Singapore .
