All my kids have been going to Raffles Children’s Centre for years for their immunisation, health and development check up. I’m always pleased with Dr. Veronica Toh every time she check them as she’s very friendly and even it’s a busy day she take her time and don’t rush explaining or listening to me, even the Nurse staff are all welcoming. Highly recommended.

It was a pleasant experience at Raffles Children’s Centre. The clinic is very clean and big with good ventilation. The staff show professionalism at their work and explained clearly on the prescriptions. Dr Toh & Dr Chu attended to my son in 2 separate occasions. Both of them are very nice, patient, attentive when I describe my son’s sickness. They gave clear instruction and prescribe the appropriate medicines for the treatment. Thank you.

We’ve been seeing Dr. Toh since our baby was two months old, and she has always been incredibly patient, gentle, and reassuring — both with our baby and with us as parents. When our little one recently caught a cold, the medicine she prescribed worked very well. What we truly appreciate is how caring and responsive she is — whenever we have questions, she takes the time to return our calls or reply to our emails, which gives us great peace of mind. We’re so grateful to have such a kind, experienced, and reliable paediatrician looking after our baby. We’ll definitely continue seeing her as our little one grows! With love and thanks from Mia Peng & family 💕

Is Dr Tan Mein Chuen Raffles Children's Centre MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
No regulatory licence details have been provided in the current listing. Every legitimate clinic must hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence under the Healthcare Services Act — you can verify this on the MOH licensee directory online. Every practising doctor must appear on the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) public register at smc.gov.sg; search by the doctor's name to confirm registration status, specialist accreditation in Paediatric Medicine, and any disciplinary history. For paediatric specialists, an MMED (Paediatrics), MRCP, or FAMS (Paediatric Medicine) fellowship is the meaningful additional credential beyond basic SMC registration. Confirm both the clinic's MOH licence and the named doctor's SMC entry before booking — neither alone is sufficient. Verify the doctor's name on the Singapore Medical Council register and the clinic's MOH Healthcare Services Licence before booking, and for any planned procedure request a written financial counselling estimate that itemises insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket portions before paying any deposit.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at Dr Tan Mein Chuen Raffles Children's Centre?›
Integrated Shield Plans (IPs) layered on MediShield Life cover most private specialist consultations, day surgery, and inpatient stays subject to the plan's deductible, co-insurance, and rider rules. Confirm pre-authorisation and request a Letter of Guarantee from your insurer before any planned procedure to avoid claim disputes after the fact. MediSave can be used for selected outpatient items under the S$500/year general withdrawal limit, or up to S$700/year under the Chronic Disease Management Programme for listed conditions. For children's consultations that do not involve a listed chronic condition, MediSave outpatient use may be limited — confirm with the clinic's front desk which charges are MediSave-claimable. For any planned procedure, ask the clinic for a financial counselling session and an itemised pre-treatment estimate in writing that clearly shows what each payer covers. Skipping this step is the most common reason families are surprised by their final bill.
