Dr Siew has a special interest in benign gynaecology, including the management of menstrual disorders, pelvic pain, fibroids, ovarian cysts and other gynaecological conditions. She is passionate about providing holistic, evidence-based and patient-centred care, with a focus on empowering women to make informed decisions about their health.

In addition to her clinical work, Dr Siew has a strong interest in community and population health.
