Families typically approach a private paediatrician through a direct walk-in or appointment, with first specialist consultations at private clinics generally running S$120–250 before investigations. The paediatrician will assess your child against the National Childhood Immunisation Programme (NIP) schedule, developmental milestones, and any presenting concern — whether acute illness, developmental delay, or ongoing chronic management. Investigations such as blood panels, urine cultures, or referrals for imaging may follow depending on the clinical picture. For children on the Chronic Disease Management Programme, MediSave 500/700 outpatient withdrawal limits and CDMP coverage may apply to eligible conditions. Confirm insurance pre-authorisation with your Integrated Shield Plan insurer for any planned procedure or specialist referral.
To book an appointment, contact Lam Baby and Child Clinic Dr Catherine Lam directly by phone or via the enquiry form, and bring your child's health booklet, vaccination records, and any referral letter from your GP or polyclinic to the first consultation.

Came here because our usual PD was away and our LO was down with fever. Dr Catherine was great and we liked that she was reassuring, and able to pinpoint symptoms and explain things meticulously. You can definitely be assured that your LO is in good hands with the experience that she has.
was referred there by the A and E. coincidentally, my insurance friends also recommend her. Her charges are reasonable, friendly counter staff and short waiting time from my previous 3 visits. A very experienced and professional pediatrician.
Great doctor. Went extra mile to make sure my child is okay.

Private paediatric consultations in Singapore typically run S$120–250 for a first visit and S$80–180 for follow-ups. On top of the consultation, common add-ons include vaccinations (S$30–80 per dose depending on the vaccine), blood panels (S$60–200), urine or swab tests, and prescription medications. GST applies on private medical services. Public hospital Specialist Outpatient Clinic (SOC) visits via a polyclinic or GP referral letter cost S$30–80 for Singapore Citizens after subsidy, though non-urgent waits typically run 4–12 weeks. For any planned procedure, request a written financial counselling estimate that clearly splits insurance, MediSave, and out-of-pocket portions before committing.

No regulatory licences have been confirmed in the current listing data for Lam Baby and Child Clinic Dr Catherine Lam. Every legitimate clinic should hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence under the Healthcare Services Act, verifiable on the MOH licensee directory. Every practising doctor should appear on the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) public register at smc.gov.sg — search by name to confirm registration status, specialist accreditation in Paediatric Medicine, and any disciplinary history. For surgical or subspecialty paediatric work, a Royal College or Academy of Medicine Singapore fellowship (FRCS, FAMS) is the meaningful additional credential beyond basic SMC registration. Confirm both the clinic licence and the named doctor's SMC entry before booking — neither alone is sufficient. Contact the clinic directly to request these details if they are not displayed on their website.
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 MediSave 500/700 withdrawal limits — S$500 per year for general outpatient use and S$700 per year under the Chronic Disease Management Programme (CDMP), which covers conditions such as asthma, diabetes, and selected others. NIP childhood vaccinations administered at CHAS-enrolled clinics may also attract subsidy. For any planned procedure, request a financial counselling session at the clinic — 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.
