About SOG Christina Ong Clinic For Children And Gastroenterology
SOG Christina Ong Clinic For Children And Gastroenterology is a paediatric specialist clinic located at Mount Elizabeth Novena Specialist Centre, operating as a private outpatient setting serving patients islandwide. It holds a 4.6/5 rating across 148 Google reviews, a robust sample that provides meaningful signal on patient experience. As a private specialist clinic, first consultations are typically priced in the S$120–250 range, with follow-up visits at S$80–180, though exact fees should be confirmed directly with the clinic.
Patients generally access a private paediatric specialist either by walking in directly or via a polyclinic or GP referral letter — the latter can unlock subsidised rates at public hospital specialist outpatient clinics (SOC) at S$30–80 for Singapore Citizens, though waiting times of 4–12 weeks apply. At a private clinic such as this, appointments are typically available within days. The consulting paediatrician would assess developmental milestones and the National Childhood Immunisation Programme (NIP) schedule for well-child visits, and manage acute and chronic paediatric conditions alongside the clinic's gastroenterology specialism. Investigations such as blood panels, stool tests, or endoscopic referrals may be arranged depending on the presenting condition. For planned procedures, request a written financial counselling estimate splitting insurance, MediSave, and out-of-pocket portions before proceeding.
To book an appointment, contact the clinic directly by phone or through the online enquiry form, and confirm your Integrated Shield Plan details and MediSave eligibility in advance of the visit.

Dr Christina Ong has been the paediatrician for all my three children, and we are very grateful to be under her care. She is patient, thorough, and always takes the time to listen and explain things clearly. As a parent, I feel reassured after every visit because she never rushes and genuinely cares about my children’s wellbeing. She is very gentle and calm with kids, which makes clinic visits much less stressful, and her advice has always been practical and helpful. The clinic staff are also friendly and professional.

I am writing to share my disappointment regarding the experience we had at your clinic. We walked in to enquire about an appointment, fully understanding that the doctor may not have had any available slots. Unfortunately, the interaction with the receptionist was extremely unpleasant. The tone used to question us — particularly Miss “What happened to your child?” with full attitude — came across as rude and insensitive tone, like we have done some sin walking in without appointment. This is not an appropriate way to speak to parents who are already anxious about their child’s well-being. It would have been perfectly acceptable to simply inform us, politely, that there were no available slots. Instead, the lack of basic courtesy and professionalism left us very uncomfortable. No matter how good the doctor may be, the attitude and conduct of front-desk staff create the first impression of a clinic. Sadly, this experience has put us off entirely, and we would not consider visiting or recommending the clinic in the future. I strongly suggest that staff be given basic customer service and communication training, as empathy and politeness are essential in a healthcare setting.

Dr Ong has been my sons’ paediatrician for the past four years, and we are very grateful to have her. She is professional and takes a gentle, natural approach to treatment. She never forces decisions on us and always respects us as parents. Dr Ong genuinely loves children and consistently acts in the best interests of both the child and the family. I highly recommend her.

Is SOG Christina Ong Clinic For Children And Gastroenterology MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
Every legitimate private specialist clinic must hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence under the Healthcare Services Act — verifiable on the MOH licensee directory online. Every practising doctor must 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. Note that this listing does not currently display confirmed regulatory licences. We recommend verifying both the clinic's MOH licence and the named doctor's SMC entry directly before booking. For a paediatric gastroenterology specialism, look for a Fellowship of the Academy of Medicine Singapore (FAMS) or equivalent Royal College credential beyond basic SMC registration as an additional indicator of specialist training. 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 SOG Christina Ong Clinic For Children And Gastroenterology?›
Integrated Shield Plans (IPs) layered on MediShield Life cover most private specialist consultations, day surgery, and inpatient stays, subject to your plan's deductible, co-insurance, and rider terms. Confirm pre-authorisation and request a Letter of Guarantee from your insurer before any planned procedure to avoid post-event claim disputes. MediSave can be used for selected outpatient treatments under the S$500/year general withdrawal limit, or S$700/year under the Chronic Disease Management Programme (CDMP) for listed chronic conditions including asthma, diabetes, and selected others. For any planned gastroenterological or other procedure, ask the clinic for a pre-treatment financial counselling session — a written itemised estimate splitting insurance, MediSave, and cash portions is standard practice at private specialist clinics and should be provided before payment is made. Children who are Singapore Citizens may also benefit from subsidised paediatric care through polyclinic referral pathways if cost is a consideration, though waiting times at public SOCs can be 4–12 weeks for non-urgent cases.
