About
Dr. Heidi Hiu-Yee Cheng is an obstetrician-gynaecologist at The Women’s Clinic Group’s Central Hong Kong clinic, holding the Certification in Reproductive Medicine from the Hong Kong College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (2018). She graduated MBBS from The University of Hong Kong in 2001 and attained her UK MRCOG qualification in 2008, alongside fellowships of the Hong Kong College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (FHKCOG) and the Hong Kong Academy of Medicine (FHKAM).
Her practice centers on fertility preservation and pre-pregnancy care: egg-freezing consultation, pre-conception health checks and screening for single-gene recessive disorders. She is a familiar face in Hong Kong health media, where she has explained primary versus secondary dysmenorrhea, trying-to-conceive checklists, ovulation timing, and pre-conception genetic screening — reflecting an approachable, education-first style of patient communication.
Clinical Expertise
- Egg freezing consultation: assessment of freezing timing and ovarian reserve, walk-through of the two-week stimulation-to-vitrification process, and fertility-preservation strategy
- Pre-conception checks & genetic screening: systematic pre-pregnancy health examinations and carrier screening for single-gene recessive conditions for couples planning pregnancy
- Fertility assessment: ovarian reserve evaluation including AMH testing, hormone panels and antral follicle counts on ultrasound
- Gynecological diagnosis and care: evaluation of dysmenorrhea, menstrual irregularity and other common or complex gynecological symptoms, through to prenatal care
Why Choose Dr. Cheng
Few general gynaecologists in Hong Kong hold the HKCOG Certification in Reproductive Medicine; Dr. Cheng combines that subspecialty credential with a heavy public-education workload in exactly the areas many international patients ask about — elective egg freezing and pre-conception screening. That means patients get evidence-based, jargon-free counseling on when freezing makes sense, what the 10-year statutory storage limit in Hong Kong implies for family planning, and which carrier screens are worth doing before trying to conceive. Her full-cycle OB-GYN skill set also supports patients from checkup through pregnancy care.
Professional Affiliations
Dr. Cheng is a Member of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, UK (2008), a Fellow of the Hong Kong College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (2006) and a Fellow of the Hong Kong Academy of Medicine in Obstetrics & Gynaecology (2004), with Reproductive Medicine certification from the HKCOG (2018). She is a regular contributor to Hong Kong media health programs on women’s fertility.
