Dr. Ong Xiaohui is a caring and friendly doctor who is currently practising at OB Gynae Associates Women’s Clinic at Thomson Medical Centre. She delivers babies and performs gynaecological operations mainly in Thomson Medical Centre, Mount Alvernia and Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospitals.

Her interest in the specialty of Obstetrics and Gynaecology started early during her medical school days – the joy of bringing babies into the world truly resonated with her and she was inspired to become an O&G specialist. Till today, her passion is fuelled by seeing her patients deliver healthy babies and recovering from successful gynaecological operations.

Upon completing her housemanship, Dr. Ong committed herself whole-heartedly to the specialty and spent nine years training and working in KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital before going into private practice. During her time in KKH, she gained much clinical experience in vaginal deliveries, caesarean sections, ultrasound scans, and was accredited for gynaecological operations including laparoscopic (key-hole) surgeries and termination of pregnancy. Dr. Ong has also published her clinical research in various medical journals and presented in many local and overseas conferences including Paris, Madrid, Florence, Vienna and Brisbane. In addition to giving talks and contributing articles to educate women and mothers-to-be, she continues to attend courses and conferences regularly to ensure that she can offer the most current and best treatment options for her patients, especially for those who suffer from subfertility or miscarriage.

Dr. Ong is a strong advocate for female health screening and cervical cancer prevention. She believes in empowering women to choose safe contraceptive methods, and that patients deserve personalised treatment options for their unique gynaecological problems. As a mother of three young children, she understands how vulnerable a woman can feel during the journey of conception and pregnancy. She feels privileged to be part of this important moment in her patients’ lives and enjoys supporting them with professional advice and care.

Dr. Ong attends to deliveries and operates at Thomson Medical Centre, Mount Alvernia and Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital.
