The Buddhist Tzu Chi Traditional Chinese Medicine Free Clinic is officially inaugurated in the presence of Nee Soon MP Dr. Lee Bee Wah and Minister for Law and Home Affairs Mr. Shanmugam, as well as many residents.
Nee Soon MP Er. Dr. Lee Bee Wah：
We hope to have a TCM clinic here, so that the residents can have another choice of clinic when they fall ill. Tzu Chi is very well-known in Taiwan and Singapore as well, so our first choice is Tzu Chi.
Tzu Chi Singapore’s CEO Loh Swee Seh: Tzu Chi has been quietly serving people island-wide. The residents, MPs, and grassroots leaders can see our efforts.
Tzu Chi’s patient-centred care has gained recognition from people. Besides providing the usual clinical services and health information, the TCM free clinic also offers stretching therapy according to each patient’s health conditions. It strives to safeguard residents’ health and provide emotional support to patients, too.
Serafico Raymunda De Guzman, Patient:
All the people in Tzu Chi Foundation are very good, because when I come here, they treat me like family.
Tan Kok Tiong, Patient:
I live upstairs, so it’s very convenient for me. The doctors here are very friendly and kind. They patiently asked me about my conditions.
This free clinic has started serving our residents. We thank Tzu Chi Singapore for caring for our residents.
You can make appointment by calling us, from Monday to Friday.
The inauguration ceremony of the TCM free clinic is part of the Nee Soon South Health Carnival 2019. Through the event, many more residents have learned that there is a new free clinic that will safeguard their health with love.
