Singapore, May 26, 2017: Everyone deserves good healthcare, and access is the first step. OneCare Medical (www.onecaremedical.com.sg) with a network of 13 clinics, has teamed up with GetDoc, in a partnership that marks the beginning of a better healthcare experience for patients. Together we are proud to help match patients with in-network neighborhood doctors, find the care they need and book their appointments. OneCare’s clinics are conveniently located in Boon Lay, Bukit Batok, Bukit Gombak, Bukit Panjang, Choa Chu Kang, Hougang, Loyang, Marine Parade, Raffles Place, Tampines, Tiong Bahru and Yishun, with plans for further expansion. OneCare’s team of doctors offers a wide range of expertise from Chronic Disease Management, Men’s Health, Sports Medicine and Musculoskeletal (MSK) Disorders to Out-patient acute care. Manned by a team of highly dedicated healthcare professionals, OneCare Medical presents a forward looking team that is at the forefront of primary medical care.
Dr. Melvin Heng, a partner at OneCare Medical, is passionate about the idea of leveraging technology to improve not just the efficiency of the clinics, but also that of patient experience. “At the end of the day, we exist because of the patient, and therefore we make it our mission to ensure that the patient is as comfortable as possible in the midst of discomfort. By being able to search for the nearest clinic, and making a booking, patients cut down travel time and more importantly, waiting time at the clinic so they get to see the doctor faster and get back home to rest. That’s most important to us.”
Woon Shung Toon, Founder and CEO of Jireh Group, parent company of GetDoc (www.getdoc.co) in Singapore & Malaysia says he is excited about this partnership as it brings convenience closer to the ground, introducing a better healthcare experience to the man on the street. “We have already on board the largest privately owned dental group, Dental Focus, now with OneCare Medical, our service to users is greatly enhanced. We want to continue using technology to improve lives and what better way than to be able to help people find the care when they need quickly and simply, reducing unnecessary waiting time.
GetDoc continues to grow its network of healthcare professionals across all disciplines with the goal of being the go-to name for healthcare needs. It recently partnered with 2 Dental Groups to increase productivity and improve the patient experience at Dental Focus (http://www.smilesdfi.com/focus-main/) and Gentle Dental Group (http://www.gentledental.com.sg/). Users can access valuable and the latest health information on GetDoc: a global health advisory Fit for Travel (www.getdoc.co/fit-for-travel/) and a comprehensive Health A-Z (www.getdoc.co/health-a-z/), in partnership with the UK’s National Health Services. Playing a part in the continuum of care by delivering health content covering all key areas of health and wellness, GetDoc is a vital resource to help people not just get healthy, but stay healthy.
