His passion in assisted reproductive technology and fertility treatment led him to pursue his training locally and in National University of Singapore. He qualified with postgraduate Diploma in Reproductive Medicine from the National Population & Family Development Board, Malaysia (LPPKN) in collaboration with Johns Hopkins’ Programme for international Education in O&G, Bachelor of Science in Computing (Hons) from University of Portsmouth, UK and Master of Business Administration from University Tunku Abdul Rahman, Malaysia.
He is one of the pioneer fertility specialists in Malaysia and established Metro IVF Centre in Klang in 1999 and the first IVF pregnancy was delivered in 2000. In 2008, Dr. Tee is one of the key initiators for IVF collaboration between private and public health institutions including Hospital Tengku Ampuan Rahimah, (Metro HTAR IVF Shared Care Programme) and with UiTM (Metro UiTM Private Specialist Centre IVF Shared Care Programme).
With over 20 years of experience in IVF, Dr. Tee has led Metro IVF and it’s group of medical professionals in achieving internationally recognised success rates. The group has since expanded to 7 branches nationwide and was publicly listed in February 2018 on Bursa Malaysia.

Fetal Assessment After Conception
Pregnancy is a wonderful journey to motherhood. During the antenatal period, the nine months before delivery, you will have regular antenatal check-up to predict, prevent and detect maternal and fetal complications during your journey through pregnancy. A few special tests will be done for early detection of fetal abnormalities, i.e.:
-
Nuchal thickness test
-
Triple test
-
Amoniocentesis
-
Detail scan
Nuchal Thickness Test
The Nuchal Translucency at the back of the neck is due to the edema beneath the skin at the nuchal region (behind fetus neck). This is an important marker to detect abnormality of the fetus such as Down Syndrome (trisomy 21), Patau Syndrome (Trisomy 13), Edward Syndrome trisomy 18.
In normal healthy baby the nuchal thickness should not be more than 3mm. Nuchal thickness is assessed and measured by ultrasound scan at about 12 weeks of pregnancy.
Triple Test
Triple test is also known as triple screening. It is a test performed at about 15 weeks of pregnancy to detect chromosomal abnormalities and neural tube defects.
Your blood will be taken and test for AFP (alpha-fetoprotein), estriol and beta-hCG (human chorionic gonadotropins) levels. The result will determine whether your baby will be at risk for chromosomal abnormalities.
Amoniocentesis
Amniocentesis is a prenatal test that used to gather information about your baby’s health and development. This is usually done around 16 weeks of pregnancy to determine whether a baby has genetic or chromosomal abnormality such as Down Syndrome.
Detailed Scan
The aim of the detailed scan is to look at the baby’s anatomy in detail and to find out developmental and structural abnormalities of the baby, and to determine the position of the placenta and amniotic volume.
The scan will detect 80% of babies who have serious physical abnormalities, such as spina bifida (incomplete closing of backbone), cleft lip, anencephaly (without part of the brain), hole in the heart and omphalocoele (abdominal organs outside the body). Detailed scan is performed at around 20 weeks of pregnancy.
During detail scanning, the following structures of the baby will be identified and look for abnormality.
-
Fetal lie
-
Placenta localization
-
Amniotic fluid
-
Cord Insertion and vessels
-
Head
-
Face
-
Neck
-
Heart
-
Lungs, Diaphragm
-
Abdomen (stomach, kidneys , intestine, liver , bladder)
-
Genitalia
-
Limbs (upper and lower limbs) and extremities
-
Spine
-
Cervix of the mother
