About Dr Ho Chin Ching Jean Dermatology
Dr Ho Chin Ching Jean Dermatology is a private dermatology practice located at Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre, offering skin-related consultations for paediatric patients on an islandwide basis. KakiList has verified the operating details and contact channels. With only 7 Google reviews at a rating of 3.1 out of 5, the sample size is too small to draw reliable conclusions about service quality, and prospective patients should treat this figure as directional only. No regulatory licences have been provided to KakiList, and the practice does not appear in the ACRA business registry — patients are encouraged to confirm MOH and SMC registration details directly before booking.
For a first consultation at a private dermatology practice, patients typically self-refer directly (first consult at private specialist rates of S$120–250) or arrive with a referral letter from a GP or polyclinic, which may support Integrated Shield Plan pre-authorisation for planned procedures. Paediatric dermatology consultations commonly address eczema, urticaria, molluscum contagiosum, birthmarks, and acne. The doctor will take a clinical history, examine the affected area, and may request patch testing, skin scrapings, or a biopsy depending on the presentation. A written treatment plan and prescription are issued at the end of the visit, with follow-up intervals set according to the condition. Patients intending to claim on an Integrated Shield Plan should confirm pre-authorisation requirements with their insurer before attending.
To book an appointment with Dr Ho Chin Ching Jean Dermatology, contact the practice by phone or via the enquiry form listed on KakiList, and ask for the first available slot, the consultation fee, and the named doctor's SMC registration number before confirming.

I wish I can give zero star. I’m an existing patient. Dr. Ho has been nice but if she is not doing anything with the very rude and unprofessional front desk staffs she will only lose more patient. 36 years of my life has never ever seen any clinic staff as rude and as unprofessional as they are.

I’m thankful for Dr Jean Ho and her team for all their patience and help they have given me . I went to seek treatment for my severe eczema which I almost gave up as it didn’t get any better when I went to polyclinic or after I used any cream . My skin is fully healed and I can go on my daily life like doing sports and going outdoors with my healed skin which was not possible before :)

My son has been seeing Dr Ho for 3 years now and his skin has improved drastically. She has always been kind and caring towards his condition and always proving us with practical solutions. 😀
Good or bad - Never meh

Unnecessarily long wait and told it could be an hour before we see the doctor when an apt was made. Front desk was cold and not friendly. Many specialist so no loss for us.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Dr Ho Chin Ching Jean Dermatology charge?›
Private dermatology consultations in Singapore typically run S$120–250 for a first appointment and S$80–180 for follow-ups. On top of the consultation fee, common add-ons include patch testing (S$150–400), skin biopsies (S$200–500), cryotherapy or minor procedures (S$100–400), and prescription topicals or oral medications. GST applies on private medical services. For planned procedures such as laser treatment or surgical excision, request a written financial counselling estimate from the clinic that itemises the insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket portions before proceeding. Patients with an Integrated Shield Plan should confirm pre-authorisation and a Letter of Guarantee from their insurer in advance to avoid post-treatment claim disputes.

Is Dr Ho Chin Ching Jean Dermatology MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
Every legitimate private clinic must hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence under the Healthcare Services Act — verifiable on the MOH licensee directory at moh.gov.sg. Every practising doctor must also appear on the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) public register at smc.gov.sg, where you can confirm registration status, specialist accreditation in Dermatology, and any disciplinary history. No regulatory licences have been provided to KakiList for this listing, and the practice is not currently ACRA-registered in our records. Before booking, search for the named doctor on the SMC register and check the clinic address against the MOH licensee directory independently. Neither step is burdensome, and both are standard practice when engaging any private specialist. Listening data is incomplete — contact Dr Ho Chin Ching Jean Dermatology directly to confirm details.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at Dr Ho Chin Ching Jean Dermatology?›
Integrated Shield Plans (IPs) layered on MediShield Life can cover private specialist consultations, day surgery, and inpatient stays subject to each plan's deductible, co-insurance, and rider rules. Confirm pre-authorisation and request a Letter of Guarantee from your insurer before any planned dermatology procedure to avoid bill disputes after the fact. MediSave outpatient withdrawal is subject to the S$500/year general limit, rising to S$700/year under the Chronic Disease Management Programme (CDMP) for listed chronic conditions. Chronic eczema and psoriasis are among the skin conditions listed under CDMP, which can allow the attending doctor to draw on MediSave for qualifying consultations and medications — ask the clinic whether CDMP applies to your condition. For any planned procedure, request a pre-treatment financial counselling session so the clinic can issue an itemised estimate splitting insurance, MediSave, and cash portions in writing. Skipping this step is the most common reason patients are surprised by their final bill.
