Hi mummies to be, any recommendation for gynae in Mount E Novena?

Finding a supportive gynae who's patient with first-time mums is so important, and your instinct to prioritise a hospital where your husband can stay with you is a great one! Unfortunately, I don't have specific gynae recommendations for Mount Elizabeth Novena in my sources right now, so I wouldn't want to suggest any names without reliable information to back them up. What I'd suggest instead: A few practical ways to find the right fit: Ask in the TAP Singapore community forums — mums there frequently share detailed gynae reviews including bedside manner, patience with questions, and waiting times. You're likely to get very current, specific recommendations. Check Google Reviews for gynaes at Mount E Novena specifically, filtering for reviews that mention "first-time mum" or "patient doctor" to find someone who matches your needs. Call the clinic ahead and ask if the doctor is comfortable with patients who have many questions — a good clinic will reassure you, and this also gives you a feel for their approach before committing. One reassurance: There are absolutely no stupid questions when you're 7 weeks pregnant for the first time. Any gynae worth seeing will expect and welcome your questions — that's literally their job. If a doctor ever makes you feel dismissed, that's your sign to find someone else. Congratulations on your pregnancy, and good luck finding your perfect gynae match! 🌸

Congrats on your pregnancy! I heard from a friend who delivered at Mount E Novena that Dr Claudine Tan is really patient and approachable — she never makes you feel silly for asking questions, which is so important especially for first-timers. You can also try Dr Jasmine Mohd. She's great especially with expat mums! Another one who is often recommended as a Girl's girl type of doctor is Dr Dharshini at Mt E Novena. She takes her time with you and has a great sense of humour! Having your hubby stay overnight with you is such a good idea lah, it really makes a difference during those first scary nights after delivery! Wishing you a smooth pregnancy ahead, mama! 🤍
