About SBCC Baby & Child Clinic Mount Alvernia
About SBCC Baby & Child Clinic Mount Alvernia
SBCC Baby & Child Clinic Mount Alvernia is a paediatric clinic located at Mount Alvernia Medical Centre on Thomson Road, serving families across Singapore. The clinic has been verified by KakiList, and holds a 4.6/5 rating across 36 Google reviews — a moderate sample that suggests consistent patient satisfaction, though prospective patients should weigh this alongside other factors. No regulatory licences have been confirmed in the listing data, so parents are encouraged to verify the clinic's MOH Healthcare Services Licence and the consulting paediatrician's SMC registration directly before booking.
For most families, the first visit covers a presenting concern — fever, respiratory illness, developmental query, or a routine vaccination — followed by a consultation with the paediatrician, any necessary investigations (blood work, urine, X-ray if indicated), a diagnosis, and a treatment or monitoring plan. Planned follow-ups and developmental milestone reviews are typically scheduled at the same time. For insured patients, Integrated Shield Plans layered on MediShield Life generally cover inpatient and day-surgery costs; outpatient specialist consultations may be covered depending on the plan and rider. MediSave can be used within the standard outpatient withdrawal limits (S$500 per year general outpatient, S$700 under the Chronic Disease Management Programme for eligible chronic conditions). Families following the National Childhood Immunisation Programme (NIP) schedule should confirm which vaccines are administered at the clinic and whether MediSave claims apply.
To make an appointment, contact the clinic directly by phone or through the enquiry form, and bring the child's health booklet, vaccination records, and your Integrated Shield Plan details for any insurance pre-authorisation.

★★★★★
Dr Chan is a very patient and friendly doctor. I appreciated how through she was in addressing our concerns and examining my daughter. The nurses were also respectful and helped make the entire process so much more pleasant. Highly recommended for the professionalism and care that we received!

★★★★★
We switched to Dr. Chan after a few frustrating experiences at another clinic where the doctor often overbooked, and we had to wait in a crowded room full of sick kids. Dr. Chan manages her appointments so well—there’s barely any waiting time, and the clinic is not overcrowded. She’s also always patient and takes time to explain everything clearly, never rushing us or making us feel silly for asking questions. As first-time parents, we really appreciate her care and reassurance. The front desk staff are also very friendly and helpful. So thankful we found this clinic—highly recommended!

Dr Chan displayed exceptional care for my little ones, offering patient and kind attention that immediately put them at ease. The three nurses consistently provided outstanding support during each visit, not only effectively managing the children but also going above and beyond to assist me when my hands were full. This made the entire experience stress-free and more manageable. I highly recommend this clinic for its excellent care, efficient service, and friendly atmosphere!

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does SBCC Baby & Child Clinic Mount Alvernia charge?›
Private paediatric specialist consultations in Singapore typically run S$120–250 for a first visit and S$80–180 for follow-ups. On top of the consultation fee, investigations are billed separately — a blood panel is commonly S$60–200, a urine culture S$30–80, and an X-ray S$80–150 if required. Vaccinations under the National Childhood Immunisation Programme range from S$30–80 per dose at private clinics, and some may be partially MediSave-claimable. GST applies on private medical services. 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 portions before you proceed. If you hold an Integrated Shield Plan, confirm pre-authorisation requirements with your insurer early. See the full paediatric cost guide for Singapore →
Is SBCC Baby & Child Clinic Mount Alvernia MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
Every legitimate clinic must hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence issued 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 a paediatric specialist, accreditation under the SMC's Specialist Register in Paediatric Medicine is the meaningful credential beyond basic registration. No regulatory licences have been confirmed in the current listing data for SBCC Baby & Child Clinic Mount Alvernia. Parents should verify both the clinic's MOH licence and the named paediatrician's SMC entry directly before booking — neither alone is sufficient, and both checks take only a few minutes online.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at SBCC Baby & Child Clinic Mount Alvernia?›
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 the date to avoid claim disputes after the fact. MediSave can pay for selected outpatient items — S$500 per year under the general outpatient limit, or S$700 per year under the Chronic Disease Management Programme for eligible chronic conditions such as asthma. For paediatric vaccinations, selected NIP-schedule doses are MediSave-claimable up to specified limits per dose — confirm with the clinic which vaccines qualify. For any planned procedure, request a financial counselling session so the clinic can issue a written itemised estimate splitting insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket cost before you commit. Skipping this step is the most common cause of unexpected final bills.
