Our Reviews
Frequently Asked Questions
We understand patients may be unwell and we aim to minimize their waiting time and discomfort as
much as possible.
For patients who have been prescribed medication, our staff double checks the medications
prescribed to each patient. As this is a process involving patient safety, we have to be careful
and may be the reason why you experience a longer waiting time.
At times, we also experience manpower shortage. This is a prevalent issue with many Singaporean
businesses, and our team constantly works hard to keep our clinics adequately staffed.
Our staff members regularly work at night and on occasions, may have to multi-task between
registration, triage, dispensing and answering patient enquiries. With matters related to
patient safety, our staff requires time to properly dispense their duties and this may take some
time.
On the flip side, most patients experience waiting time between 5 to 15 minutes during
off-peak hours.
We seek your kind understanding on this matter and will work as quickly as we can to help make
your visit as pleasant as can be.
As a 24-hour clinic, we have a variety of fees pegged to the time of registration &
consultation. This helps to make our fees more affordable, depending on the time a patient
arrives at.
During extended hours or public holiday hours, we have to bear additional costs as with other
businesses which operate extended hours or 24 hours. Much of these costs include overtime salary
costs used to remunerate our staff who make an effort and certain sacrifices to staff the clinic
late.
As such, we seek your kind understanding on this matter. You may also contact our clinic to
enquire about the consultation charges before heading down.
There are times when we lack manpower and will have no choice but to close the clinic for a
short period of time.
We endeavor to update our website and Google Maps information when this happens. We encourage
you to call the clinic before going down.
We seek your kind understanding on this matter.
The attending doctor has the discretion to refer certain conditions to A&E, especially when he or she feels that it is in the patient's best interests to be seen at A&E. This may include (but are not limited to): serious burns or trauma where more specialized care needs to be accorded to the patient.
