About Dr Ooi Pei Ling Paediatrics Rheumatology
Dr Ooi Pei Ling Paediatrics Rheumatology is a specialist paediatric rheumatology practice based at Gleneagles Hospital Annexe Block on Napier Road, serving patients islandwide. The listing has been verified by KakiList, though no regulatory licences have been confirmed in the listing data and ACRA registration is not on record. The practice holds a 4.7/5 rating across 12 Google reviews — a small sample that should be treated as directional only.
Paediatric rheumatology addresses inflammatory and autoimmune conditions in children and adolescents, including juvenile idiopathic arthritis, lupus, vasculitis, and related disorders. Families typically access a private specialist directly without a referral, though a polyclinic or GP referral letter can support insurance pre-authorisation and may reduce out-of-pocket costs for some Integrated Shield Plan holders. At a first consultation, the specialist will review the child's symptom history, conduct a physical examination, and determine whether investigations are needed — blood panels, inflammatory markers, imaging, or joint ultrasound. A diagnosis and management plan, which may include medication, physiotherapy referral, and a monitoring schedule, are discussed with the family at or following that appointment.
To make an appointment, contact the practice directly via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form, and ask about first-consultation availability, the investigations likely required at the initial visit, and how to submit any prior medical records or referral letters in advance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Dr Ooi Pei Ling Paediatrics Rheumatology charge?›
Private specialist consultations in Singapore typically run S$120–250 for a first visit and S$80–180 for follow-ups. Paediatric rheumatology appointments often involve investigations at or shortly after the first visit — blood panels for inflammatory markers such as ANA, ESR, and CRP cost roughly S$80–200, imaging or joint ultrasound S$150–400, and additional specialist tests may be ordered depending on the clinical picture. GST applies on private medical services. For planned treatment or ongoing management, request a written financial counselling estimate that separates insurance payout, MediSave withdrawal, and out-of-pocket portions. If you hold an Integrated Shield Plan layered on MediShield Life, confirm pre-authorisation requirements with your insurer before the appointment. See the full paediatric cost guide for Singapore →
Is Dr Ooi Pei Ling Paediatrics Rheumatology MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
Every legitimate specialist clinic holds an MOH Healthcare Services Licence issued under the Healthcare Services Act — verifiable on the MOH licensee directory. Every practising doctor in Singapore is listed on the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) public register at smc.gov.sg, where you can confirm registration status, specialist accreditation in Paediatric Medicine or Rheumatology, and any disciplinary history. No regulatory licences have been confirmed in this listing's data at the time of publication. Families should independently verify the MOH clinic licence and the named doctor's SMC entry — and, for a sub-specialist such as paediatric rheumatology, confirm any Royal College or Academy of Medicine Singapore fellowship (FRCS or FAMS) credentials — before booking. Contact the practice directly to request these details.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at Dr Ooi Pei Ling Paediatrics Rheumatology?›
Integrated Shield Plans (IPs) layered on MediShield Life can cover private specialist consultations, day procedures, and inpatient admissions subject to your plan's deductible, co-insurance, and rider rules. For paediatric rheumatology, confirm with your insurer whether outpatient specialist visits and investigations are covered under your plan tier and whether pre-authorisation is required before the appointment. MediSave can be used for selected outpatient expenses under the S$500/year general withdrawal limit, or up to S$700/year through the Chronic Disease Management Programme for listed chronic conditions. For any planned procedure or infusion therapy, ask the clinic for a written financial counselling estimate that itemises the insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and remaining out-of-pocket amount before you agree to proceed. Skipping this step is the most common source of unexpectedly large bills.
