Hey Synthia,

It is relatively easy to see a doctor in Singapore.
GP, Hospitals, Specialist clinics too!
We accept walk ins even into the Accident and Emergency department.
There are plenty of 24hour clinics located all round the island as well.

DeeGee, the only contention I had was .. whenever I went to a government hospital - Alexandra or NUH, A&E, the first thing was "WHY DIDNT YOU WAIT AND SEE A POLYCLINIC??" hehe

I couldn't justify looking for a polyclinic, when I was living just next door to the two hospitals, at Normanton Park !!

Hey no worries!

FRCS would be helpful. Expat GP's are not as viable though.

Will let you know more details once I've asked around

no worries, I dropped you a message. On your profile.

Cheers and appreciate all help.

I am on a long stretch now, but nothing to loose trying ..

From what I know when I was working in KK Women's and Children's Hospital, there were Phillipino doctors in the paediatric side, however, am not too sure about the specialty in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, maybe you can check out their site. - Sorry am a newb and not able to put up URL's.

Hope this was helpful

*P.S. Will ask around for you and Estela

Hey Eurelix and Estela,

Will be posted out to Uzbekistan for a month.
Won't have much internet access there.
Promise to ask around on details for GP and Gynae work and answer you by October.
