Default How is medical service in Singapore?

Hi all. I am an Emergency physician in Hong Kong. We always have long waiting time in our ED (average 4-8 hours) and in SOPDs. Medical wards are always above 100% occupancy Lol.

I have read through the posts in this thread, and found out that, despite Singapore has been open to foreign medical graduates for long time, doctors still need to work for > 80 hours a week? I suppose, with sufficient doctors, the workload will be less.

And how about medical service and waiting times? Is it difficult to see a doctor for Singaporeans?

How about those “3rd world graduates”? Do they confer to more medical errors? How do you think their performance is? Bad or good?

Tks for replying! Cheers!
