Philosophy of Care: Dr. Lily Kho’s approach to maternal care focuses on the needs of the mother, delivering individualised treatment plans as part of early pregnancy management. She understands that the early stages of pregnancy are an extremely delicate time and is passionate about improving the management of patients during this wondrous period where life has just been conceived.
As such, she developed and spearheaded the Miscarriage Workgroup at KKH, which aimed to improve the management of patients in their early pregnancy, giving the best outcomes to expecting mothers and their babies.
Dr. Kho emphasises the importance of patient safety and clear communication, ensuring that patients are well-supported throughout their healthcare journey. Being a mother herself, she understands the challenges that mothers face from conception to pregnancy and goes above and beyond the call of duty to promote the safety of both mother and baby.
