Singapore Gastroscopy Cost 2025 – Information You Need To Know

While often thought to be harmless, a tummy ache can sometimes be a sign of something much more severe. 

If you are suffering from persistent abdominal pain, a doctor may recommend that you undergo a gastroscopy to diagnose and investigate the cause of your discomfort. 

A gastroscopy (or upper GI endoscopy) helps detect if your pain might be a sign of more serious conditions such as GERD or H.Pylori infections.

These conditions can often lead to chronic inflammation in the oesophagus or stomach lining, which can lead to cancer.

A gastroscopy can help detect early signs of ulcers and cancer and significantly increase one’s chances of full recovery. Remember, early detection can save lives. If you are experiencing recurring stomach or abdominal pain, schedule a gastroscopy today.

How Much Does A Gastroscopy Cost in Singapore?

The surgeon’s fee for a gastroscopy in Singapore costs between $650 – $1,100 (before GST). Do note that the cost above does not include the hospital or consumable fees. For more information on the total bill, visit MOH’s Historical Transacted Bill Sizes and Fee Benchmarks.

Different factors may affect the cost of a gastroscopy in Singapore. This includes any possible additional procedures, an out-patient or in-patient surgery and your choice of public or private medical facility.

Below, you’ll find a breakdown of the surgeon’s fee associated with each type of gastroscopy procedure at a private clinic in Singapore. 

Gastroscopy Procedure	Surgeon’s Fee (before GST)
Diagnostic Gastroscopy (SF701I/1B)	SGD 650 – 1,100
Gastroscopy with 1 Polyp Removal (SF700I/2C)	SGD1,100 – 1,800
Gastroscopy with >2 Polyps Removal (SF813E/3A)	SGD1,200 – 1,900

A general gastroscopy screening is a more affordable procedure. A diagnostic gastroscopy, which aims to identify health conditions during the procedure, will be more costly. In some cases, the gastroscopy will require additional procedures like removing lesions or taking tissue samples. The cost of these procedures will increase as they include the use of extra equipment and may be more complex. 

Another factor that affects the cost of a gastroscopy is if the procedure is done as a day surgery (out-patient) or an in-patient basis. Out-patient procedures are more affordable as it does not require an overnight stay at the facility. Public hospitals include subsidies for Singapore Citizens and the overall cost will be lower compared to a private hospital. 

However, getting an appointment at a public hospital may be a long process as it requires a referral from a polyclinic first before an examination with a specialist. For a more personalised and faster process, you can make an appointment with your specialist of choice at a private hospital instead.
