Dr. Lim Shu Yan

About

Dr. Lim Shu Yan is an obstetrics and gynaecology registrar at Metro IVF Fertility Centre. She earned her MBBS from Melaka Manipal Medical College, completed her houseman service at Hospital Sultan Ismail in Johor Bahru, and trained in the Obstetrics and Gynaecology department of Melaka General Hospital, where she learned surgical procedures, patient counselling and the management of obstetric and gynaecological cases.

She then moved into fertility-specific training at Metro IVF’s Klang headquarters and the Puchong branch, learning the full management of fertility couples: investigations for both men and women, IUI, IVF, and luteal support after treatment. That combination — public-hospital O&G grounding plus registrar-level training inside an RTAC-accredited fertility group — shapes how she runs clinics: systematic work-ups, cycle-timed follow-through, and clear explanation of each step.

Dr. Lim is an active advocate for women’s health. She shares her knowledge with patients so they understand every investigation and treatment option, and she manages patients holistically — mental and social factors included — because, as she puts it, women’s health affects every aspect of life. Beyond accurate diagnosis and proper treatment, she offers emotional support and works through obstacles together with the couples in her care.

Clinical Expertise

• IVF (in vitro fertilisation): patient management through the IVF cycle — fertility investigations for both partners, stimulation monitoring, and luteal support after embryo transfer
• IUI (intrauterine insemination): work-up, induction and insemination cycles for mild infertility, ovulatory and unexplained cases, with luteal-phase support
• Fertility investigation and assessment: structured couple evaluation that establishes the cause before treatment is chosen
• Gynaecological procedures and counselling: surgical skills and counselling techniques from her Melaka General Hospital O&G training, applied to miscarriage management (such as evacuation) and fertility-relevant conditions including fibroids, ovarian cysts and endometriosis
• Post-treatment luteal support: standardised luteal-phase protocols after IVF and IUI to support implantation and early pregnancy
• Ovarian reserve and fertility-window assessment: evaluating ovarian reserve by age and planning the right timing for treatment

Professional Certifications

Why Choose Dr. Lim Shu Yan

Trained inside the Metro IVF system. Her fertility education ran through both the Klang and Puchong sites, so her workflow matches the centre’s standardised protocols at every step — investigation, stimulation, retrieval, transfer and support — with nothing lost in cross-clinic hand-offs.

Access to the whole treatment pathway. She is comfortable across the range from basic couple investigations to IUI and IVF support, which means patients can start their work-up with her and continue treatment without switching clinicians.

Surgery and counselling together. Her Melaka General Hospital training covered operative gynaecology as well as patient counselling, so patients dealing with a gynaecological condition and fertility goals at the same time get both assessed in one place.

Whole-person care. Dr. Lim deliberately builds mental and social context into her management — explaining findings, offering emotional support and problem-solving with the couple — which matters most for patients under sustained treatment pressure.

Patient education as standard. She makes sure patients understand what each test and treatment is for. When fertility decisions are complex, that two-way communication helps couples choose what genuinely fits their situation.

Suitable For

• IVF cycle management: women who want their stimulation, monitoring, retrieval logistics and post-transfer support handled within one standardised programme
• IUI treatment: patients with ovulatory, mild male-factor or unexplained infertility who need cycle work-up, insemination and luteal support
• Gynaecological health management: miscarriage-related care, fibroids, ovarian cysts and endometriosis — including cases where treatment must run alongside fertility goals
• Couples who need emotional support: a registrar who works through the obstacles of the fertility journey with you, not just the medicine
• Women who value communication: patients who want to understand every step of their plan before consenting to it
