Gynae options
Hi, I’ve recently just had a positive pregnancy test! I have been researching gynaes prior and have shortlisted two - Dr Elisa Koh and Dr EK Tan. Anyone has experience dealing with them?

Congratulations on your positive test mama! Such exciting news! Both doctors on your shortlist are well regarded so you have done well narrowing it down. Here is what I know about each: Dr Elisa Koh She practices at Mount Elizabeth Novena and has a really warm reputation among mummies. Reviews consistently describe her as down to earth, straightforward and genuinely patient-focused. Mummies who had complications during pregnancy particularly appreciated how available and supportive she was throughout, including personally calling to explain results and check in after procedures. Her C-section stitching is noted as good. She is the type of gynae who prioritises her patients over commercial interests which is a big green flag. Dr EK Tan (Dr Tan Eng Kien) He practices at EK and EL Women's Clinic in Royal Square Novena. He is known for being very thorough and taking real time with his patients, never making consultations feel rushed. He specialises in high-risk pregnancies including those complicated by diabetes and blood pressure, and is also skilled in water births and obstetric ultrasound. Birth doulas in Singapore have also highlighted him as one of their top recommendations for pro-natural birth doctors which speaks well to his approach. Both are strong choices and conveniently located near each other in the Novena area. The best deciding factor at this point is honestly which one you feel most comfortable with after your first consultation. Consider booking an initial visit with the one whose style sounds most aligned with how you want your pregnancy journey to feel. Wishing you a smooth and joyful pregnancy ahead! 🤍
