my son fell from high place at school and had a complicated fracture of his left wrist. Bone was poking out of the skin. Went to private hospital that can handle emergency case. First orthopaedic surgeon was caught up in another hospital treating car accident. Second call surgeon just got off the plane from a trip and attended around 9pm. The operation went from 10pm to midnight. Titanium plate was also used. Also they opened the children's ward for him as it was empty but overnight he was the only patient with a nurse all for him. He stayed 2 more days to have IV antibiotics before discharge. Very thankful for all the dedicated staff from the surgeon, anaesthetist and nurses.
It is okay. The operation cost with private health fund with $760 excess that apply to most Aussie. Will they send you to rehab hospital for rehab? In Sydney, that is covered by health fund when I had my knees operation. But my health fund is not Bupa. In rehab, they will have physio, water therapy everyday to help you to recover. Take care and God bless.
The benefits of having surgery in public hospital as private patients are the better facilities in the public hospitals, particularly those associated with medical school. So complicated surgery is still operating at public hospital. Can choose your own doctor. But in emergency, you can’t really have a choice!

To avoid swellings on the operated arm, put a small pillow or towel below it when you sleep. Get well soon!!
Km Yim, Yes, doing this before bedtime.
知道你手術順利完成，但要繼續小心保護，得閒慢慢郁動下d手指咁樣可以消腫啊！🥰🥰
通常做骨科手術都需要用Tourniquet，等做手術個陣d血唔會ba ba聲流出黎，咁做手術個陣睇得清楚：）同埋會落局部麻醉藥等你術後會無咁痛。呢d都影響你做完手術有麻痹感覺：）
謝謝你，解釋得好清楚🤗🤗🤗
係呀 如果你今次手腕骨折，implant/prosthesis 就有plate + screws，好貴架哈哈
价钱相当合理，主要在于保险所cover的项目。
祝早日康復。
手術費唯港元萬零文，係好低啦，住院及服務好過香港啦！
仔仔好乖！Jimmy 多休息，保重身體💪💪😃
手術順利，真好！
相信會很快復原。
Jimmy, 你過到逆境，仍然好笑容，给你個👍
多謝你Sydney Lai
祝早日康復，好好休息。

Jimmy, 祝早日康復！
你排public hospital 你不能選擇醫生。多會是trainee doctor 替你開刀。如果是cat 3 non urgent, 往往要等一年。你的bupa 也有waiting period, 要看你是不是pre-existing, waiting period 會上一年。
很多無pre existing case 或young people 會買Bupa 的bronze保險，相信比較平。保險有gold, silver plus, silver, bronze, basic, etc. 但上年紀的couple, 應該買silver or silver plus或以上。
我在香港也有用bupa 幾年，服務不佳，經常踢保，我在NSW 選big 5 的另一間
MediBank?

Jimmy, I wish you all the best💐
早日康復
早日康復！ 👌
Take care and get well soon.
你有private health insurance 公或私家醫院收費一樣。問題係個主駗醫生去邊間醫院。以Sydney 為例醫生通常只去一間醫院
祝早日康復
要好好休息，唔好太操勞
早日康復！
謝謝老師的祝福
Take care and get well super soon.
Thanks Phoebe.
Jimmy speedy recovery.
我們一家祝您早日康復
Take care Jimmy😊
Jimmy 咁樂觀好快就冇事架啦！
但見 Alan 樣子好擔心咁😒
Take care Jimmy
我諗可能因為covid, 所以唔可以俾Alan入去等。
我老公舊年嚮private hospital 做手術因為covid, 所以我唔可以嚮醫院等。做完手術之後，嚮recovery ward度會有姑娘打俾我同我講手術做成點。要到出院先可以見到佢
通常在私家医院或者Day Surgery做手术, 都系家属先让回家，手术做完，醒番之后，一切ok，就会通知家人接回家；当然，如果你愿意在入院处坐上一段不知道多长的时间等候，又令作别论。
Take care!!!
保重
Get well soon. 🌹
Hi Loretta Cheung,你好，关于医生手術費我有问过我的同事，因为他们都有做过同一手術，價钱是可以的。我只是觉得住私家医院贵咗啲。
我曾經做过手術，住一天連麻醉，出院除了比$16蚊買它止痛藥，一個仙都唔使.
是公立嗎？有Medicare 入公立醫院係免費。
@@澳洲生活 我來澳洲30多年都有買medibank，事情已經十年有多，那時急性肚痛，医生話要做手術，立刻入院，甚麼医療咭也給了他們,做完手術肚还插着去血水的管，不能去冼手間，只可在床去，睡一晚第二天就叫出院，又唔知當我公立定私家計，預備比錢時話唔使比，只用十多元買了包panadol就走得，後來想一定當我入公家醫院計，因為手術是微創，記得肚開三個洞，第二日就叫我走，其實傷口还痛，皆因免費，所以唔可以留咁耐。
反觀我老公做手術，那医生在私家医院做，所以我們冇其他
選擇，一定要去指定医院，医院是好有名的，入院時也是甚麼咭也比医院，医院也是一個仙也不用比，但医生費耍$7000一個仙也没有得 claim當然还有幾百蚊麻醉医生費，所以做甚麼手術，在甚麼医院，用那位医生也不是一概而論，我認識有些朋友或親戚，
过了七十歲就不買医保，因為有甚麼急症，医院会立即幫你做，不用花一毫，貼子太長，唔好意思!
Alan is a very sweet guy.
你還年青，應該好快好翻！Take care 🙂
澳洲醫生可以同時有"私家"同"公家"兩頂帽。我以前喺私家醫院做椎間盤手術，個醫生帶住佢學生同我做。佢話如果要喺公立醫院做，要排期一年，然後係佢學生落場做，佢監場。比起香港，澳洲私家醫生收嘅手術費算好平。澳洲應該冇星球醫生。
說得對
Get well soon
如果排公家医院隊，照我所知，是不能自選医生，通常公家医院都只会找實習医生幫你做手术，我寧願经private...
Hi Pang, 你說得有理。
三個仔都好乖😁
😁
點解咁遲才駁骨？以為巳在康復中！未駁骨前會唔痛？！祝早日康復。💖
話說要等消腫
麻痺感覺應該術中用過止血帶, 郁多D手指後就會冇事
醫生說手術後打了麻醉藥在手腕。
Get well soon 💞🙏
Thanks Agnes
勿再過度操勞！慢慢調理身體！
Thanks for sharing!正study 如何買medical insurance,包括香港的是否keep及澳洲的如何買。
在澳洲買燕梳很多東西頭12個月是不能claim的這叫做waiting list .我朋友來澳洲後六個月要做手術幸好他在香港仍有買保險。結果飛回香港做。因為在澳洲他要等12個月才可以有得做。
@@lorettacheung3905 thx
我在悉尼卡市，Cabramatta 區，三年前我做前列腺癌，住私家医院一萬零五百元，事後覺得唔直，太贵了，當初我已经booked 咗公立医院，但医生話公立医院冇key holes 儀器所以唔可以喺公立医院做冇法啦？
oh, 希望你健康。
在悉尼很多專科醫生收費非常貴，因為是沒有上限的。要求自保只有在book手術時他們才會告訴你醫生大約收多少麻醉師收多少醫院的費用是差不多的。所以只是醫生及麻醉師的費有大分別。試過有次我先生做手術那麻醉師的費用竟然夠膽收超過手醫生。所以問清楚才好落單。必要時找一個second opinion每個醫生的收費是不一樣的.
請問妳骨頭是哪受傷？橈骨還是尺骨？因為我晚妳一個星期也是左手骨折了！（剛好查資料看到妳的影片）
Radius 橈骨
粗的那條
@@澳洲生活 我也是！
Jean, 希望你早日康復！
@@澳洲生活 謝謝！妳也是！大家一起加油！
Hi Jimmy & Alan 您们好，在沃洲住私家医院好贵呀，你一晚二千多，我二晚一万零五百呀，陰公，手术只是八千多，麻醉三千，今世真係唔敢住私家医院啦！！！
Hi Thieu Long Ton, 請問你住沃洲那個地方呀，醫療費這麽貴？！
正常价，我邻居好友刚做完宫腔镜顺便剪了输卵管（50多岁），她不敢住院即时回家，咁都要$7000几
請問如果無買私人保險，情況會如何？
你會在當值的醫生名下收症及排期。在悉尼如果是白內障會排期12至18個月。但不是這個醫生做的，是他手下實習專科醫生做的。排期的長短視乎有幾多人等排期，及嚴重性。我朋友切斷手指傷及tendon. 包紮後要他回家等排期。三日後結果還是自己轉私家醫生。立即在他到診的私家醫院有位做。我對Sydney的私家醫院非常有信心，設備亦齊全。當然不能做換心換肺手術，但我自己在心臟裏面做手術時也是去私家醫院的。我的主診教授常注那間醫院。有他自己的一Team人。
請問如無買私人保險,情況會如何？
如有Medicare, 可入公立醫院, 基本上免費。如入私家，可能總共要9000澳元
