Singapore General Hospital

I want to commend the Indian doctor (unfortunately I didn't manage to catch her name) who spoke Mandarin to my late Dad while she was checking on him. Shame that a few of the Singaporean Chinese doctors could not even converse in Mandarin.

One of the best state hospital with almost all amenities and professional staff. Only thing lacking is there's no smoking area. Nearest smoking point is literally outside the hospital.nnWould really appreciate if they allow some smoking area to let smokers alleviate their urge during their long wait for their X-Rays & Clinics queue turn

Dr Joy Quah and Nurse Pamela Choo are caring, warm and detailed. Thanks for treating my foot.

Had a slipped disc in 2007...was treated with Nucleoplasty by Prof Tan Seang Beng (totally giving 5-stars to him and his team, esp Dr Benjamin Tow). I was a private patient then and paying full fees without insurance.nnIn 2014, I was admitted to A&E at SGH for spine problems again. Couldn't walk and was put in B2 ward for a night, given a morphine jab, had an X-ray done and discharged the next day in a wheelchair. Took a few weeks before the muscles relaxed and could walk again. And only 2 months later did I get to see Dr Tan about my condition.nnSince then, Dr Tan and Dr Tow have moved on into private practice. The current spine clinic in SGH is no longer the force it once was.

Horribly long waiting time.... I wonder why they gave us appointment time at all..... got my turn in 2 plus hours !!!!
