You can go to any gynecologist but I would suggest choosing one that specializes in gynecological cancers because they are often regarded as the best gyne surgeons.

There are only a handful of them in Singapore.

1. Dr Jeffrey Low (NUH)
2. Dr Lisa Wong (Mount Elizabeth Hospital)
3. Dr TH HO (SGH)

Good luck and hope she recovers soon!

Hi dont mind can I know how did your sister find out that she had uterine fibroids. My mother in law is a foreigner and she had spotting and after doing some scope check up the Docs scraped out the fibroids under local anesthesia and gave her an injection to stop the spotting.

But she is about 60 plus

If anyone comes across this thread and is still in need of a good gynaecologist for fibroids, I do recommend Dr Jen Shek Wei (AMK Ave). He was our choice when my mom needed to have 3 fibroids removed (these fibroids were pea-sized and only incidentally caught during her annual well-woman visit). The fibroids were scraped so no open incision.
