About The Little Surgery Centre Dr Ong Lin Yin
The Little Surgery Centre Dr Ong Lin Yin is a paediatric practice located at Mount Alvernia Hospital Medical Centre A on Thomson Road. KakiList has verified the operating details and contact channels. The Google rating stands at 5/5, though this is drawn from only 10 reviews and should be treated as directional rather than conclusive. No regulatory licence information has been provided in the listing data, and no ACRA registration has been confirmed.
Families consulting a paediatric specialist at a private hospital setting such as this would typically attend as self-paying patients or via an Integrated Shield Plan. A first specialist consultation at a private paediatric clinic generally runs S$120–250, with follow-up reviews at S$80–180. Investigations such as blood panels, X-rays, or allergy testing are billed separately. For planned procedures or day surgery, financial counselling should be requested in advance so that the split between insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket cost is set out in writing before any deposit is paid. Parents holding a polyclinic or GP referral letter may access the public hospital subsidised outpatient clinic pathway instead, though waiting times for non-urgent specialist appointments can run four to twelve weeks.
To arrange an appointment, contact The Little Surgery Centre Dr Ong Lin Yin directly via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form, and bring your child's health booklet, vaccination records, and referral letter if applicable.

Dr. Ong is an excellent and highly skilled surgeon. She is wonderfully calm, reassuring, and very pleasant to talk to. It's clear she genuinely cares about her young patients. We felt completely confident in her care from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Our daughter Lisa was born with esophageal atresia and Dr. Ong performed her surgery shortly after birth. Thanks to her skill and care, she recovered smoothly and is now growing up healthy and strong. We feel very fortunate and deeply grateful to have had such a wonderful surgeon for her at that critical time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does The Little Surgery Centre Dr Ong Lin Yin charge?›
A first private specialist consultation at a paediatric clinic typically costs S$120–250, with follow-up reviews at S$80–180. Investigations are billed on top: blood panels run S$60–200, X-rays S$80–150, and allergy or other specialist tests vary by scope. GST applies on private medical services. For any planned procedure or day surgery, request a written financial counselling estimate before proceeding — this should itemise what your Integrated Shield Plan covers, how much MediSave can be applied, and the remaining out-of-pocket portion. Skipping this step is the most common reason families are surprised by the final bill. See the full paediatric cost guide for Singapore →
Is The Little Surgery Centre Dr Ong Lin Yin MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
Every legitimate clinic operating in Singapore must hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence under the Healthcare Services Act — verifiable on the MOH licensee directory. 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. No licence information has been provided in this listing. Parents are strongly encouraged to verify Dr Ong Lin Yin's SMC registration directly and confirm the clinic's MOH licence before booking. Both checks are free and take only a few minutes online. Confirm both the clinic licence and the named doctor's SMC entry before booking — neither alone is sufficient.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at The Little Surgery Centre Dr Ong Lin Yin?›
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 with your insurer and request a Letter of Guarantee before any planned procedure to avoid claim disputes after the fact. MediSave can be used for selected outpatient items under the S$500/year general withdrawal limit, or up to S$700/year under the Chronic Disease Management Programme for listed conditions. For any planned procedure, ask the clinic for a financial counselling session and an itemised pre-treatment estimate that splits insurance, MediSave, and out-of-pocket portions in writing. For families who are cost-sensitive, a polyclinic or GP referral to a public hospital subsidised outpatient clinic can substantially reduce specialist fees for Singapore Citizens, though non-urgent waiting times typically run four to twelve weeks.
