Dr Charissa Goh Shu Ying

Dr Charissa Goh is a Consultant at the Department of Reproductive Medicine, KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital (KKH).

She co-leads the multidisciplinary Gynaecological OncoFertility Clinic at KKH, collaborating with other fertility specialists and gynaecological oncologists.

She is also the Clinical Lead of the Trip.com Oncofertility Programme that helps to partially fund the cost of the fertility preservation procedures of young cancer patients aged 40 years or below. The programme also aims to improve education and awareness of fertility preservation among patients and healthcare providers through seminars and lectures. The goal is to improve access to fertility preservation, supporting survivorship so patients can better “live with, through and beyond cancer”.

Dr Goh's research interests focus on the treatment and management of patients with endometrial hyperplasia and cancer who wish to preserve their fertility.

She currently holds the position of Clinical Instructor at Duke-NUS whilst simultaneously pursuing a Master's Degree in Translational Medicine at the same institution.
