About International Child and Adolescent Clinic
International Child and Adolescent Clinic is a private paediatric clinic located at Thomson Road, serving families islandwide. It has been verified by KakiList, meaning operating details and contact channels have been confirmed by a real person. The clinic holds a 3.3/5 rating across 32 Google reviews — a moderate sample, though the rating sits below the typical range for private paediatric practices and warrants careful consideration. No regulatory licences are currently listed in the KakiList record; families are strongly advised to confirm the clinic's MOH Healthcare Services Licence and the consulting paediatrician's Singapore Medical Council (SMC) registration directly before booking.
For a first paediatric consultation at a private specialist clinic, families typically self-refer and pay at the point of service (Singapore market: S$120–250 for a first private specialist consult). Alternatively, a polyclinic or GP referral letter to a public hospital specialist outpatient clinic (SOC) is available at S$30–80 for Singapore Citizens, though non-urgent waits typically run 4–12 weeks. At a paediatric clinic, the consulting doctor will review the child's medical history, assess developmental milestones against age-appropriate benchmarks, follow the National Childhood Immunisation Programme (NIP) schedule where relevant, and order investigations such as blood panels or X-rays as needed. Bring the child's health booklet (blue book), vaccination records, and any previous investigation results. For planned procedures or day surgery, request a written financial counselling estimate that clearly splits the Integrated Shield Plan (IP) payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket portions before any commitment.
Contact International Child and Adolescent Clinic directly by phone or enquiry form to confirm appointment availability, the named paediatrician's SMC registration, the clinic's MOH Healthcare Services Licence, and the current consultation fee and insurance acceptance policy before attending.

We recently brought our son, Julian, to see Dr Oei, and the experience truly put our minds at ease. The most reassuring part was how she carefully walked us through the GP’s earlier diagnosis and treatment plan — something that really helped settle many of my wife's concerns. We also appreciated how she streamlined Julian’s medications, reducing them from five or six down to just two, without compromising on care. Her approach was thoughtful, practical, and never excessive. Dr Oei also introduced us to the importance of monitoring Julian’s SpO₂ levels, which gave us a clearer, more objective way to understand how he was doing day to day. And being able to rent the nebuliser directly from the clinic made things so much easier for us as parents. We’re grateful for her calm, measured guidance and for the sense of clarity she gave us during a stressful period. It made all the difference.

Dr Ong is a very professional, experienced and caring doctor. He is attentive to parents before giving his diagnosis. The staff are all well trained and patient in handling babies and children. Clinic is clean and brightly lit with ample seating area. Best to book an appointment before visiting the clinic as there is always a large volume of patients. Avoid visiting on a Monday as the clinic will be packed.

Grateful for the nurses and receptionists, especially the younger lady. Truly appreciated your help when I had to run to the loo and she stepped in to help me with my baby. 🙏🏼 really appreciate her going the extra mile. Doctor wise, could be because it’s closing time, so it felt rushed and one sided. But yet we also waited nearly 2 hours to see the doctor. Best to book appointment if you want to visit!

Thankful for the nurses/receptionists - they are always prompt with replies and very very helpful. They give good advice and always manage the place well though it may get crazy at times or most of the times. I think we don’t appreciate them enough but one of the reasons why my boys are still seeing the PDs here’s because of them. It’s always comforting to talk to them. But of course Dr Ooi’s very professional and her diagnosis’ always accurate, recommending effective treatments for my boys. She’s very patient, always taking her time to explain to us and to answer all our questions. We trust her and she has been our family doctor - for our kids all these while.

Our experience with the doctor, while my daughter was warded, was very negative. I found Dr Ong to be highly impatient; when sharing my daughter’s lab test results, he asked us to take a photo of the results and “to google it” to understand what the results meant. Additionally, my daughter’s treatment plan was not explained to us. Based on our negative experience, we decided to seek a second opinion, and we are very glad we did as my daughter is now recovering well under the care of her new doctor.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does International Child and Adolescent Clinic charge?›
For a first private paediatric specialist consultation, the Singapore market norm is S$120–250, with follow-up visits typically S$80–180. As International Child and Adolescent Clinic displays a mid-range price indicator, fees are likely within or near this band, but the clinic has not published a specific fee schedule on KakiList — confirm the exact consultation fee when you call. Items commonly billed on top of the consultation include investigations (blood panel S$60–200, X-ray S$80–150, ultrasound S$150–400), prescription medications, and follow-up reviews. GST applies on private medical services. For any planned procedure, request a written financial counselling estimate splitting insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket portions before proceeding.

Is International Child and Adolescent Clinic MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
No regulatory licences are currently recorded for International Child and Adolescent Clinic in the KakiList database. Every legitimate private paediatric clinic must hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence under the Healthcare Services Act — verifiable on the MOH licensee directory online. 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 Paediatric Medicine, and any disciplinary history. For paediatric specialists, a fellowship with the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (MRCPCH or FRCPCH) or a Fellowship of the Academy of Medicine Singapore (FAMS) in Paediatric Medicine is the meaningful additional credential. Families should independently verify both the clinic's MOH licence and the named doctor's SMC entry before booking — neither alone is sufficient, and the absence of licence data in this listing means that verification step is especially important here.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at International Child and Adolescent Clinic?›
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. For any planned procedure, confirm pre-authorisation and request a Letter of Guarantee from your insurer before attending to avoid claim disputes after the fact. MediSave can be used for selected outpatient items under the MediSave 500/700 withdrawal limits (S$500 per year for general outpatient, S$700 per year for conditions listed under the Chronic Disease Management Programme). Paediatric outpatient visits for common childhood conditions may fall within these limits depending on diagnosis. Confirm with the clinic whether your child's condition qualifies under CDMP and whether the clinic is a CDMP-registered provider. For any planned procedure, request a financial counselling session — most private clinics will issue an itemised pre-treatment estimate splitting insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket portions in writing. Skipping this step is the most common reason families are surprised by their final bill.
