A torn ligament, a knee that won't stop clicking, or a fracture that needs a second opinion before surgery, orthopedics in Singapore is one area where the gap between a good outcome and a mediocre one often comes down to who you see first. The practices below have logged 3,044 Google reviews between them, and the ratings are tightly clustered between 4.8 and 5.0, so the real differentiator is which surgeon's specialty actually matches your injury.

Short answer: The most-reviewed orthopedic practice in Singapore on this list is Official: Singapore Sports and Orthopaedic Clinic (SSOC) (4.8 stars across 875 reviews), while Specialist Orthopaedic Centre - Dr Kannan Kaliyaperumal and Dr. Ananda Vella at OrthoCare both hold a perfect 5.0. Costs vary widely between a standard consultation and surgery, so confirm pricing and insurance coverage directly with the clinic.

Health information disclaimer: This directory is informational only and not medical advice. Rankings reflect publicly available Google ratings and review volume, not clinical outcomes. Verify any practitioner’s credentials and registration with the relevant medical board before booking.

How we rank these specialists

Every number here comes from public Google data pulled on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the practice’s live Google star average. Review volume shows how many patients have left a review, weighed against other Singapore orthopedic practices. Confidence combines the rating with that volume, so a 4.8 built on hundreds of reviews counts for more than a perfect score built on a smaller base. Recency reflects how recently patients are still leaving reviews. No practice can pay to change these numbers.

What does an orthopedic consultation cost in Singapore? (2026)

Orthopedic costs in Singapore vary significantly depending on whether the visit is a standard consultation, involves imaging like an MRI, or leads to surgery, and whether you’re using MediSave, insurance, or paying privately. Confirm with the clinic directly what a first consultation includes and whether imaging is billed separately.

Orthopedic care across Singapore

The practices above cluster around Novena and the Gleneagles and Farrer Park medical districts, all well served by MRT and central enough for most of the island. Searching for an orthopedic specialist near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and address so you can check distance and book directly.

What to ask before you book an orthopedic specialist

  • Does the surgeon specialize in your specific injury area, foot and ankle, knee, spine, or general trauma?
  • Is imaging like an MRI or X-ray done on-site, or will you need a separate referral?
  • What’s the typical timeline between diagnosis and surgery if it’s needed?
  • Can MediSave or insurance be used, and does the clinic handle claims directly?
  • Is a non-surgical treatment option available before committing to an operation?
  • What does post-surgical rehabilitation involve, and is it handled in-house?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these orthopedic specialists?

We started from every orthopedic practice in Singapore with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we rank above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (July 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Should I get a second opinion before orthopedic surgery?

Several of the specialists on this list have treated patients specifically seeking a second opinion after another doctor recommended surgery. It’s a reasonable step for any non-emergency procedure.

Do these clinics handle both surgery and physiotherapy?

Some do. Singapore Sports & Orthopaedic Services and Official SSOC both mention in-house rehabilitation support alongside surgical care, which can simplify recovery logistics.

The bottom line

Specialist Orthopaedic Centre with Dr Kannan is the strongest default for foot and ankle injuries given the perfect rating and deep review base, while Official SSOC’s larger team suits anyone still narrowing down which specialist they need. Whichever you choose, ask about non-surgical options before committing to an operation.
