Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What recommendations does the programme have for students/MOs keen on specialty to lean more before applying for elective options?

Don’t be afraid to speak to any of the rehabilitation doctors to find out more about our programme and if it fits what your perspective of being a clinician is all about!

How do I increase my chances of being accepted into the residency programme?

Come to a posting/elective with us! Being a passionate individual who enjoys what we do definitely helps!

Is Rehabilitation medicine all just about Physiotherapy/Occupational therapy?

Definitely not! Physiotherapy and occupational therapy do play a huge role in our day-to-day work, but we do so much more, leading the multi-disciplinary team, prescribing appropriate rehabilitation interventions including procedures, managing complications of the particular disease, and being actively involved in up-and-coming rehabilitation related research. We do a lot of exciting work.
