Dr. Paul Tseng
Dr Tseng is an experienced fertility specialist, obstetrician and gynaecologist who is well known for his holistic approach to fertility treatment recognising the importance of assisted reproductive technology coupled with traditional complementary therapies to achieve the best results for patients.
As a Singapore national Dr Tseng’s medical career began at Singapore General Hospital achieving his obgyn specialty and then becoming an integral part of the pioneering team to first offer fertility care and IVF technology to Singaporeans in 1988. For the next decade Dr Tseng helped build the Hospital’s Centre for Assisted Reproduction ‘CARE’ fertility service before starting his private practice. As technology has improved over his 30 year career Dr Tseng has seen the benefits of the less invasive, effective fertility treatment in helping reduce patients associated stress and anxiety.
With a busy obstetric practice Dr Tseng is focussed on helping women from conception to delivery and beyond. Having spent a year at St Georges Hospital London a centre of excellence for the sub specialty of uro-gynaecology Dr Tseng also manages clinical problems associated with the dysfunction of the pelvic floor and bladder as these disorders can have broader implications for reproductive organs, and quality of life.
One of unique features that Dr Tseng likes about the Virtus Fertility team is the access his fertility patients have to the experienced fertility counsellor and coach at the clinic which aligns with Dr Tseng’s awareness of the stress that can be felt from family, married and single friends and work colleagues by a couple experiencing a delay in pregnancy.
