About TOPS Clinic Paediatric Orthopaedic
TOPS Clinic Paediatric Orthopaedic is a paediatric orthopaedic specialist clinic located at Gleneagles Medical Centre, 6A Napier Road, serving families across Singapore. It holds a 4.9/5 rating across 56 Google reviews, a moderate sample that suggests consistent patient satisfaction, though no regulatory licences have been provided in this listing and ACRA registration has not been confirmed. Pricing is positioned in the mid-range tier ($$) for a private specialist clinic at Gleneagles.
Families typically reach TOPS Clinic by walking in directly as a private specialist appointment — expect a first consultation fee in the S$120–250 range — or by arriving with a polyclinic or GP referral letter, which does not reduce fees at a private clinic but ensures the specialist has prior clinical context. The clinic focuses on paediatric orthopaedic conditions, which may include limb and spine deformities, gait abnormalities, fracture management, scoliosis, clubfoot, developmental dysplasia of the hip, and sports injuries in children and adolescents. Bring any prior imaging, reports from a developmental paediatrician, or school health screening results to the first appointment. For any planned procedure, ask for a written financial counselling estimate that itemises insurance, MediSave, and out-of-pocket portions before proceeding; Integrated Shield Plans layered on MediShield Life typically cover planned orthopaedic procedures subject to the plan's deductible, co-insurance, and Letter of Guarantee requirements.
Contact TOPS Clinic Paediatric Orthopaedic directly via WhatsApp, phone, or the online enquiry form to confirm appointment availability, the consulting specialist's name and SMC registration, and to request a pre-procedure financial estimate if applicable.

I did a lipoma removal with Dr. Bernard Lau last month, and I’m really glad I went to him. The procedure was smooth, the wound was small, and it healed fast. What I appreciate most is how he took care of me after. When I got rashes, he replied to my messages quickly and told me what to do, even recommending a dermatologist. He genuinely cared, and it gave me a warm,安心 feeling through the recovery. Honestly, he’s skilled, patient, and just a very kind doctor. I would definitely recommend him.

I had a consultation with Dr. Bernard Lau for my Grade 2 MCL injury right after returning from my ski trip. He was reassuring, highly knowledgeable, and took the time to patiently address all my questions and concerns. The clinic staff were also excellent, professional, efficient, and very supportive throughout my visit.

I visited Dr Lau for an ankle sprain injury that resulted in ligaments tears in my ankle. He was very patient in explaining on the recovery process and the next steps to take for the recovery of my injury. His fast diagnosis and recommended treatment help me with a full recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does TOPS Clinic Paediatric Orthopaedic charge?›
As a private specialist clinic at Gleneagles Medical Centre, a first consultation at TOPS Clinic Paediatric Orthopaedic will typically fall in the S$120–250 range, with follow-up reviews at S$80–180. Investigations billed on top may include X-rays (S$80–150), ultrasound (S$150–400), or MRI (S$400–1,800 depending on body region and field strength). For planned procedures or day surgery — such as casting, manipulation under anaesthesia, or corrective surgery — costs vary considerably by procedure and ward class, and can range from S$3,000 to S$25,000 or more. Request a written financial counselling estimate from the clinic that splits the Integrated Shield Plan insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket portions before paying any surgical deposit. GST applies on private medical services. See the full paediatric cost guide for Singapore →
Is TOPS Clinic Paediatric Orthopaedic MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
No regulatory licences have been provided in this listing, so independent verification is essential before booking. Every legitimate private specialist clinic must hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence issued under the Healthcare Services Act — verifiable on the MOH licensee directory at moh.gov.sg. Every practising doctor must appear on the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) public register at smc.gov.sg — search by the consulting specialist's name to confirm registration status, specialist accreditation in Orthopaedic Surgery (or Paediatric Orthopaedic Surgery), and any disciplinary history. For a surgical specialism such as paediatric orthopaedics, a Royal College or Academy of Medicine Singapore fellowship (FRCS Orth, FAMS) is the meaningful additional credential beyond basic SMC registration. Confirm both the clinic's MOH licence and the named doctor's SMC entry — neither alone is sufficient — before booking any procedure.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at TOPS Clinic Paediatric Orthopaedic?›
Integrated Shield Plans (IPs) layered on MediShield Life typically cover private specialist consultations, planned orthopaedic day surgery, and inpatient admissions, subject to each plan's deductible, co-insurance, and rider rules. For any planned procedure at Gleneagles, contact your IP insurer for pre-authorisation and a Letter of Guarantee before the procedure date — disputing a claim after the fact is far more difficult than confirming coverage beforehand. MediSave can be used for selected outpatient items under the S$500/year general outpatient withdrawal limit, or S$700/year under the Chronic Disease Management Programme for listed chronic conditions. Inpatient and day-surgery MediSave limits are higher and depend on the procedure code. Ask the clinic for a written financial counselling session that itemises insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and the remaining out-of-pocket cost — most Gleneagles-based clinics provide this as standard ahead of any planned surgical intervention.
