The Singhealth Orthopaedic Residency programme is a comprehensive training programme that maximises the benefit of high clinical volumes with a well thought out combination of rotations, providing breadth of exposure and ensuring that residents have no shortage of learning opportunities.
Mentorship from highly experienced faculty at the forefront of their respective fields have also inspired me to strive to be as best as I can be.
