About Dr William Yip Paediatric Cardiologist Gleneagles
Dr William Yip is a paediatric cardiologist based at the St Anne Mother & Child Centre, Mount Alvernia Hospital on Thomson Road, seeing patients across Singapore. KakiList has verified operating details and contact channels. With 8 Google reviews at a rating of 5/5, the sample is too small to draw firm conclusions, though the early signal is positive. Pricing is positioned in the mid-to-upper range ($$) and no fixed fee schedule has been disclosed; prospective patients should enquire directly for current consultation rates.
Paediatric cardiology consultations typically begin with a referral — either from a polyclinic or GP letter (for access to public hospital subsidised outpatient clinics) or directly as a private specialist appointment, which in Singapore generally runs S$120–250 for a first visit. At a private specialist setting such as this, the consultation will usually include a clinical history, physical examination, and an initial assessment of the child's cardiac symptoms or concerns. Investigations such as an echocardiogram, ECG, or chest X-ray are commonly ordered at or after the first visit and are billed separately. Families should ask at the time of booking what the consultation fee covers, which investigations are likely to be recommended, and how to claim from an Integrated Shield Plan or use MediSave outpatient limits (S$500 general, S$700 under the Chronic Disease Management Programme for qualifying conditions). For planned procedures, request a written financial counselling estimate itemising insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket cost before proceeding.
To arrange an appointment, contact Dr Yip's clinic directly via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form, and have your child's referral letter and any prior investigation results to hand before the visit.

Dr Wong is a very caring, experienced and professional doctor. He readily established rapport with my child, putting my child at ease easily. He handled my child well, and diagnosis was swift with clear and concise management/recommendation. Dr Wong also addressed my concerns and questions patiently with patience and genuine concern. Highly recommended, and thank you Dr Wong for taking care of my child!

Dr Wong is a very patient, caring and knowledgeable. He took the time to really explain the condition that our baby has and create a thorough plan for what was to come. His skills with the echo machine were able to accurately define our baby's rarer condition. Thank you for everything Dr Wong!

Dr Wong was recommended by my gynae Dr Joycelyn back when I found out about my daughter’s ARSA condition during the 20 week detailed scan. He helped us with the fetal heart scan as well as scans when my daughter was a newborn. Dr Wong is an extremely patient, understanding and caring doctor. He addressed our concerns with regards to our daughter Sage’s ARSA condition and during the 6 months old follow up scan, our daughter cried because she was scared and instead of continuing the scan, he paused to stop and tried to distract her from the discomfort. Instead of continuing to do the scan, he told us that we do not need to continue to scare her and we could always come back again one year later when she is more aware and confident of the surroundings. He assured us that her condition was nothing much to be worried about. When we wanted to make payment for the consultation, he told us that we would not need to pay because he did not manage to complete the scan. We are extremely touched by his genuine card and concern for our daughter and that he was more concerned about her crying too much from being afraid of the scan than to complete the scan. Thank you so much Dr Wong!

Dr Wong was recommended by my gp. I took my teen boy to see him to check on a rare condition. He assured me with confidence that my child doesn’t have it and with certainty, told me not to worry. He was confident with his conclusion and told me there was nothing to diagnose. I left the clinic feeling certain and relieved. Good doctor. Highly recommended

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Dr William Yip Paediatric Cardiologist Gleneagles charge?›
No fixed fee schedule is publicly disclosed, so you should confirm the current rates directly with the clinic before attending. As a general guide, private specialist first consultations in Singapore typically run S$120–250, with follow-up visits at S$80–180. Investigations commonly ordered by a paediatric cardiologist — echocardiogram, ECG, chest X-ray, or a blood panel — are billed separately and can add S$80–400+ per item depending on the test. For any planned procedure or day surgery, the clinic should provide a written financial counselling estimate that splits the insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket portion clearly. Integrated Shield Plans layered on MediShield Life cover most private specialist consultations and procedures subject to deductible, co-insurance, and rider rules. MediSave withdrawals for outpatient visits are capped at S$500 per year (general) or S$700 per year under the Chronic Disease Management Programme for qualifying chronic cardiac conditions.

Is Dr William Yip Paediatric Cardiologist Gleneagles MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
No regulatory licences are recorded in this listing. Before booking, you should independently verify two things: first, that the clinic premises at Mount Alvernia Hospital hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence under the Healthcare Services Act — this is searchable on the MOH licensee directory; second, that Dr William Yip is listed on the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) public register at smc.gov.sg, which will show his registration status, specialist accreditation in Paediatric Medicine or Cardiology, and any disciplinary history. For a subspecialty such as paediatric cardiology, fellowship credentials from a recognised body (such as the Academy of Medicine Singapore or a Royal College) are the meaningful additional signal beyond basic SMC registration. Contact the clinic directly to confirm the doctor's full credentials if they are not displayed on the clinic's website. Verify the clinic MOH licence and the doctor's SMC entry before booking — neither alone is sufficient.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at Dr William Yip Paediatric Cardiologist Gleneagles?›
Integrated Shield Plans (IPs) layered on MediShield Life generally cover private specialist consultations, day surgery, and inpatient admissions for paediatric cardiac conditions, subject to each plan's deductible, co-insurance, and rider rules. Before any planned investigation or procedure, confirm pre-authorisation with your insurer and request a Letter of Guarantee so claim disputes are avoided after the fact. MediSave can be used for selected outpatient items within the S$500 annual withdrawal limit for general outpatient care, or S$700 under the Chronic Disease Management Programme if your child's condition is listed. Separate MediSave limits apply to certain scans and outpatient treatments. For paediatric vaccinations, the National Childhood Immunisation Programme (NIP) schedule provides government-funded doses through polyclinics; private clinic vaccination costs are typically self-pay or claimable under IP riders depending on the plan. For any planned procedure, request a financial counselling session at the clinic — an itemised pre-treatment estimate splitting insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket cost in writing is standard practice and should be obtained before paying any deposit.
