Dr Yi Shan Low – the best care I could have asked for my C‑section I can’t recommend Dr Low enough. From my very first consultation right through to my C‑section, she was incredibly attentive, caring, and always responsive – whenever I had questions, she answered them quickly and thoroughly, which gave us so much reassurance. Even though my pregnancy had some risky factors, her professionalism was outstanding; she explained every step clearly, laid out all our options, and made us feel completely safe and well‑prepared. Thanks to her skillful expertise, the actual C‑section was much easier than I ever imagined. My recovery has been smooth, and the wound pain has been very manageable – far better than what I had expected. Dr Low is not only a highly recommended obstetrician, but also one of the best doctors I have ever met. Professional, caring and always put her patients first. If we are blessed with another baby, I will definitely seek her care again without hesitation.

I have been under the care of Dr Low for the past three years, through both of my pregnancies, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very first appointment, she has been kind, patient, and genuinely caring. She always took the time to listen, answer my questions, and make me feel calm and supported, even when I was anxious. Her gentle manner and clear explanations gave me so much confidence throughout both pregnancies. I always felt safe knowing she was looking after me. Dr Low is not only an excellent doctor but also a wonderfully warm and reassuring person. I feel very lucky to have had her by my side, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for compassionate and trustworthy care.

I had an excellent experience with Dr Low. From the very beginning (i.e., from booking the appointment) everything was super efficient and smooth. We had a quick pre-app call and Dr Low also helped to book the scan on the same day as the app; she then sent helpful instructions on WhatsApp re the appointment itself. Having had some organisational nightmares with other practitioners in the past, I really appreciated such efficiency and responsiveness of Dr Low. During the appointment itself, Dr Low was very thorough - she took the time to answer all my questions in great detail, I did not feel rushed at any point. Dr Low is not only a knowledgeable doctor, but she is also kind and has a positive attitude, which is equally important! :) After the appointment, she followed up with the results and a detailed report, and tailored recommendations. I would definitely recommend Dr Low!

Dr. Yi Shan Low provided us with exceptional care throughout the pregnancy and the delivery of my baby at Portland Hospital. Their quick responses (even in the early hours on WhatsApp!), expertise, and calm reassurance made me feel safe, supported, and truly cared for every step of the way. I was nervous after two losses but felt handheld through Shan’s care. Bringing a child into the world is one of life’s most important moments, and I am incredibly grateful to have had such a skilled and compassionate obstetrician by my side, both me and my husband are still in awe of how she conducted the entire Labour process, still grateful and thankful each day that has passed since my little boy was born and she will be a part of our lives with these memories forever . Highly recommend Yi Shan, she is the gold standard of obstetricians.
