Customer Reviews
Here’s what some former patients said about Nuffield Medical:
“Nuffield Medical is an excellent medical centre that has a Superb Doctor – DR Lin K.W as well as very fast, efficient, helpful and friendly exemplary staff, noticeably Janet. I went there for my annual health screening and even though the clinic was full and packed, Janet made sure the entire process was fast and seamless (exactly what a very busy person like me appreciates as minimum time is spent waiting as the case in many other clinics). Doctor Lin is also very professional, friendly and a great personality who makes you feel at ease. Very good experience. I was so impressed I booked a medical screening for my helper immediately on the spot which subsequently turned out to be another A+ experience for both my helper and I. For all of you out there who wants to deal with fast, happy, efficient medical experts with high proficiency, I would HIGHLY recommend Nuffield.” —Ken A., Google Reviews
“We had just arrived in Singapore and I was recommended to Dr Lin by a friend who said everyone goes to him. After taking my daughter to him yesterday for a bad fall on her eye, I just got a call from him personally to check on her. Never in my lifetime have I ever received a call from a doctor to follow up. It was a pretty nasty fall so I am sure it does not happen every time but It was kind of nice…like the good old days.” —Edwina Deen, Google Reviews

Fullerton Health is a leading healthcare provider in the Asia Pacific region. Not only do they have several branches all over Singapore but they also have many others around Southeast Asia.
Unlike other centres, their screening services are mostly limited to executive health screening packages, which means that every test will be conducted in a luxurious private screening pod. This is the perfect option for patients who prioritise convenience and comfort.
Unfortunately, comprehensive executive health screening packages for women are only available for UOB cardholders. So you might want to skip this one otherwise.
Walk-ins also aren’t allowed as health screenings are strictly by appointment only. Furthermore, screening reports are only available digitally, which are sent by email within 2 weeks.
You can find everything that you need to know prior to your screening in this primer.
Pros
- Multiple clinics available
- Tests are conducted in private screening pods
- Wide range of specialised services available
- Open on Sundays
Cons
- Walk-ins not allowed
- Extra charge for physical screening reports
- Packages for women limited to UOB cardholders

If you’re on a strict budget, you can still get a health screening test for less with the help of “Screen for Life”—an initiative by the Ministry of Health and Health Promotion Board.
