Customer Reviews
The pain in my knee and left ankle was gone after the surgery
“I could not be more pleased to write this well-deserved review of Dr Nicholas Yeoh Ching Sing, surgeon at HC Orthopaedic Surgery team at Mount Elizabeth Novena Specialist Centre, 38 Irrawaddy Road #06-37 Singapore 329563; and his immensely competent staff members – clinic nurse Tan Pei Ying and clinic assistant Lisa Ng. The road to a total right hip replacement surgery could not be any more extensive considering I first encountered sharp pains in my right thigh; which then extended downwards and across both legs. Not having a clue as to what was happening to me, I did the next best thing and visited the 24-hour accident and emergency clinic at Gleneagles Hospital and after x-ray, I was informed that I needed to go for a bilateral knee replacement surgery. This was a Sunday and as I did not have access to my usual orthopaedic surgeon of 10 years, who dealt with my chronic lower back pain issues, I went home with painkillers. Instinctively and for reasons I cannot qualify, I did some research online, via Google, with the search terms ’Singapore + knee replacement surgery’ and right at the very top of the search engine results, I got hit up with HC Orthopaedic Surgery. The very next morning, I made an appointment and they very kindly accommodated my urgency to see a specialist and sort out this knee replacement matter. The second I walked into the office of Dr Nicholas Yeoh, he immediately identified the issue being my hip, and not knees as initially diagnosed. I was duly impressed. From that moment onwards, Dr Yeoh, along with Pei Ying – his assistant and clinic nurse, who worked directly with him inside his office, started conducting all the needed x-rays and MRIs/scans to clearly identify the issue i.e., my right hip requiring a replacement. Dr Yeoh also ordered a battery of tests to further understand any other peripheral issues and thanks to him, we also discovered my vitamin D levels excessively low and underwhelming. To demonstrate how precise and meticulous Dr Yeoh is, he did another scan to literally measure my right hip to ensure he would eventually fit the replacement device accurately – which eventually resulted in a perfect outcome. As a result of elective surgeries being put on hold during Covid lockdowns, the hospitals were fully-booked and I had to wait past a month for an available bed. During this period, Dr Yeoh would keep in touch with me constantly and check-in on my pain levels – and it was excruciating. Dr Yeoh and Pei Ying were very compassionate and understanding of my dire circumstances and would often call or message me – sending me lots of encouragement and to hang in there and stay the course, until surgery, that is. Every week, I would get lovely messages from Pei Ying counting down the weeks and days to surgery. The day before surgery, I received gentle reminders on what and what not to do and on the morning of the surgery, which was to take place at night, I received another pleasant reminder to have a good breakfast before the start of my pre-surgery fast – I was so indelibly touched by the love and care shown from Dr Yeoh and Pei Ying towards me, their patient. Surgery, as expected, went exceedingly well. According to Dr Yeoh, there was a little bleeding on my end and post-surgery scans showed the right hip replacement a complete success – I was not surprised at the favourable outcome as I felt, during consults prior to surgery, Dr Yeoh had proven himself to be broadly competent and proficient in his skills and expertise in all orthopaedic facets. During my hospital recovery stay, and this really bowled me over – Dr Yeoh and Pei Ying would come and visit me TWICE A DAY, electively, and on their own recognisance – how amazing is that. Dr Yeoh would check in on my surgical scar, urine output, check in on both my legs to which Dr Yeoh had this cutting-edge massage machine, of sorts, to ensure healthy blood flow in order to prevent clotting; and Dr Yeoh had ensure that both my legs were comfortably embedded so I would not accidentally dislocate the hip replacement device.“

Hours: Monday – Friday: 9:00 AM – 5:30 PM; Saturday: 9:00 AM – 1.00PM
OrthoCare – Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine is one of the best orthopaedic clinics in Singapore, led by Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon Dr. Anandakumar Vellasamy (Dr Ananda Vella).
What we find most impressive about Dr. Ananda Vella is that he’s a multi-awarded Swiss fellowship trained and local MOH-accredited orthopaedic surgeon, with extensive experience in treating all types of orthopaedic conditions and injuries – across all parts of the body, from paediatric to geriatric conditions, in addition to being further sub-specialised trained in all types of fractures as well as all foot and ankle conditions. Dr Ananda is also known for his friendly, caring and collaborative approach as he explains all aspects of the conditions and treatment clearly, believing in a collaborative approach with patients to relieve pain effectively.
As an athlete himself, Dr Ananda is familiar with treating various sports-related conditions and injuries, and can provide patients with a prompt diagnosis as well as comprehensive and practical advice to get them back to their active lifestyles, including incorporating recommendations to sports physiotherapists for personalisedrecovery programs.
Aside from this, we were impressed at how Dr Ananda keeps up-to-date with the latest technologies, including having been trained in various robotic-assisted technology from Mako to Rosa techniques for hip and knee replacements, as well as being well-versed in (keyhole) minimally invasive surgeries too.
Additionally, we like how the clinic partners different radiology centres and laboratories for patient’s convenience with ease for insurance claims and accessibility. If you require CT, MRI scans, or other tests, you will be referred to your preferred laboratory or radiology centre to ensure a seamless experience.
Another great thing we found about OrthoCare is that it has 3 branches that are conveniently situated at Mount Elizabeth Novena, Parkway East and Farrer Park medical centres, while being accredited to operate at any private hospital islandwide. These accessible locations make it easier for you to see Dr Ananda at a branch convenient to you.
Quite importantly for orthopaedic injuries, OrthoCare accepts various health insurance partners to continue to keep treatments affordable. With Dr Ananda on most insurance and integrated shield plan panels, patients have ease of mind on their financial costsso that they can concentrate on their recovery process.
Finally, there’s no room for complaints about its customer support, either. We found its staff prompt, friendly, and accommodating – and experienced enough to assist in the entire process, whether local or foreign patients. Given the high level of care for each patient throughout the process, Dr Ananda and his team’s attentive and caring approach keeps every patient feeling cared for and comfortable.
When it comes to patient care and high level of service along with value for money, we think they’re one of the best options!
The only downside is that OrthoCare follows regular clinic hours — which means they’re closed on both Sundays and public holidays, but the staff were still ready to accommodate as best as possible for the soonest available appointments and went out of their way to answer queries as and when required.
Pros
- Multi-awarded and Swiss fellowship-trained and MOH-accredited orthopaedic surgeon
- Extensive experience in wide array of orthopaedic conditions
- Accepts most insurances, and has various clinic locations for easy access for patients
- Friendly and prompt customer service
- Partners up with MRI/Xray/lab partners and physiotherapists as well as podiatrists to provide a comprehensive and personalised recovery plan where needed
- Sports and exercise medicine expertise, for all types of sports-related activity at all levels
- Uses robotic-assisted technology and minimally invasive techniques for surgeries
Cons
- Closed on Sundays and public holidays

Here’s what J Tang said with a 5-star review:
Excellent orthopaedic care, and very kind and helpful!
“My husband, son and myself are all taken care of by Dr Ananda. All of us find Dr Ananda very patient, friendly and caring. My 10 year old son repeated to me many times that Dr Ananda is very nice, like a kind teacher. He gave thorough explanations for each of our unique situations, ensuring that we have a good understanding of why we are in pain and what the progressive treatment options are. I’ve been in on and off pain for the last 7 years. Never sought medical help as I assumed that I just had to live with it. Now, with Dr Ananda’s help, I feel very encouraged that I can, possibly, lead the lifestyle that I want, without pain.”
Irene T, another satisfied client, left a 5-star review, saying:
Skilled Surgeon that brought me quickly back to sports
“Dr Ananda is a great surgeon, both professionally and at a personal level. His surgery skills are on point. Under his skilful hands, he corrected multiple deformities across my toes, bunions and calf. In 18 weeks, I was able to do my 20 days adventure with long walks and hikes, with no pain. It was incredible. He is warm, patient, and willing to listen. He just makes you feel comfortable and at ease, genuinely.”
D Kumar also gave a 5-star review saying:
Best, kind and caring doctor ever!
“Dr Ananda is truly the BEST Doctor in his field. He speaks to his patients respectfully and explains in layman terms. He ensures you understand everything!
Extremely humble and down to earth. Extremely comfortable to speak to as he gives you all his time in hearing you out. We went to him for my mother’s knee replacement surgery and he has always been there for her from the very first day! There was a time where we had to call him late in the night and he got back to us as soon as he could.
Words run short for Dr Ananda! He works with passion and takes care of his patients with all his heart. Thank You Dr for taking such good care of my mother!”
Finally, F Rosman added on with a 5-star review:
Exceptional Surgeon with a Personal Touch!
“After tearing my ATFL (anterior talofibular ligament) while rock climbing, I had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. Ananda V. I knew I was in good hands the moment I met Dr. Ananda. His professionalism, expertise, and genuine concern were invaluable throughout my journey.
Dr. Ananda’s use of keyhole surgery was revolutionary. It not only reduced scarring but also significantly shortened my recovery time. His surgical skills were exceptional, and I had little discomfort after surgery. I sincerely appreciate his dedication to utilising the most recent advances in medical technology for the benefit of his patients.
Dr. Ananda was distinguished by his personal touch. He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, ensuring that I understood everything. His caring nature and willingness to address all of my concerns put me at ease and helped me develop a strong sense of trust. I was treated as a valued individual rather than as just another patient.
Dr. Ananda’s care and attention remained consistent throughout my recovery. He gave me specific instructions, closely monitored my progress, and addressed any issues that arose promptly. He was obviously concerned about my well-being and wanted the best possible outcome for me.
I cannot thank Dr. Ananda enough for his exceptional service. His knowledge, combined with his compassionate demeanour, made a difficult situation bearable. Dr. Ananda is highly recommended to anyone in need of orthopaedic care. His commitment to providing excellent medical care and to his patients’ well-being truly distinguishes him. A modern doctor with old school values of kindness and patience.
Thank you for your excellent care and for going above and beyond to ensure my successful recovery, Dr. Ananda. You are a valuable asset to the medical field.”

Dr Jeffrey is very ethical and professional
“I had slipped disc 25 years old. Occasionally the pain comes back and haunts me. I have seen so many orthopaedics for ankles and knees too.

Recently I did 3 MRIs with another hospital and visited two different orthopaedic, none gave me a long-term wellness solution. I am blessed to have met Dr. Jeffrey. He really knows his stuff. Friendly and smiley. Systematic and Super efficient. The nurses are also very efficient. Very responsible for giving me a call back to follow up on the memo I requested. Would highly recommend this Doctor.”

Dr Kau impressed me with his expertise, thorough explanations, attentive listening and kindness
“I would like to thank Dr Kau Chung Yuan for the very successful surgeries he had performed on my hips, not once but twice, in 2016 on the right and 2023 on the left. Dr Kau impressed me with his expertise, thorough explanations, attentive listening and kindness, since the very first consultation and he has consistently shown that he has my best interest as his patient all these years.”

He took time to address my concerns and educated me on my medical condition and treatment
“Dr Kau carried out the successful knee replacement surgery in January 2019. Throughout my recovery, he demonstrated care and encouragement. I appreciate his patience in the pre-surgery consultations. He took time to address my concerns and educated me on my medical condition and treatment. I will always remember Dr Kau as the doctor who brought joy and enabled me to walk properly. He should be proud that his work has impacted my well-being positively.”

Highly meticulous professional since day 1
“Prof Suresh has always been a highly meticulous professional since day 1 my mom met him for her knee consultation. Interestingly, they both had a language barrier (my mom understands very little English language) yet he made sure we translated every sentence he said to my mom by having his nurse confirm its accuracy. This formed their unshakable confidence & solid bond between a physician & patient. My mom could be telling the family this… “We shall all follow whatever Prof Suresh says…”

This orthopaedic clinic offers a heightened level of services
“Today marks 12 weeks post op for a compound heel fracture which repair necessitated the implants of multiple screws as well as the use of bone chips. The best outcome I had sought has been delivered as evidenced by my ability to take “baby steps” now. Primarily, the credit goes to Dr CHONG KEEN WAI, the able surgeon – vouched by our rehab contacts who have personally seen the quality of his finished works over the years. Also praiseworthy and noteworthy is, that this orthopaedic clinic offers a heightened level of services. It is fitted out with essential facilities such as the diagnostic x-ray and physiotherapy units – which wholly eliminate the usual inconveniences for their patients.

The treatment was effective as my wife was feeling better in the next couple of days.
“Happened a couple of years back when I was accompanying the wife of our Medical Evacuation (Medevac) patient. Due to lack of sleep (and wrong sleeping position) and anxiety while waiting for the recovery of her husband, she suffered from pain in the neck and shoulder area. Based on a suggestion from a friend, I brought her to the Singapore Sports and Orthopaedic Clinic (if I remember correctly she was treated by Dr. Kevin Yip). We came without reservation and fortunately doctor was able to squeeze in a consultation time to see her. She mentioned that the treatment was effective as she was feeling better in the next couple of days.”
