Singapore - Doctors
General information
Singapore has highly-qualified specialists in all fields. Gleneagles and Mt Elizabeth hospitals have specialist medical centers where you can walk in but it is better to call and make an appointment first. (Telephone 6735-5000 to make appointments for specialists at either hospital). Specialists in government hospitals can be seen only by referral and appointments are necessary.
It is a good idea, especially if you have children, to establish a relationship with a local doctor who speaks your own language and is familiar with your culture. Ask at your country’s embassy, national association or women’s group for recommendations.
General physicians
You can see a general physician and if necessary be referred to a specialist doctor at the 24-hour walk-in medical centres at Mount Elizabeth and Gleneagles Hospital.
The International Medical Clinic provides family and travel medicine services for the international community with staff from Europe, North America and Australia.
