PhD Students
2025
I am currently a part-time 3rd year PhD student at the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine. In my full-time role, I am currently the Chief Operating Officer and Chief Technology Officer of Bridgepoint Health, a wholly owned entity of Sheares Healthcare. My current research focuses on Primary Healthcare in Singapore and looks to investigate the impact of patient registration in chronic disease management. Juggling a part time PhD study and a full time Job is a non-trivial endeavour, and I am fortunate to have Prof Jo-Anne and Prof Jennifer supporting and providing guidance along the way.
Coming from a non-research background, their expertise in this area is
also instrumental in the progress of my PhD. I look forward to contributing to
the academic scene in Private Primary Healthcare in Singapore and to chart a
path for researchers in the Private Healthcare space!
