NHG Internal Medicine Residency Programme

Resident's Talk

”THE NHG IM RESIDENCY IS CHALLENGING AND YET INCREDIBLE IN PREPARING US TO BE A WELL-ROUNDED PHYSICIAN. THE FACULTY ARE TRULY DEDICATED TO HELPING RESIDENTS THRIVE“

Dr Lok Teng Joo
IM Resident

"NHG IM is a programme that offers good and systematic learning, strong support among peers and seniors and a robust environment for growth. The curriculum is well-planned and each individual's interest is taken into consideration. Also,  events and activities are carefully crafted to ensure the welfare of trainees."

Dr Julia Tan Shi Yu, NHG Internal Medicine Resident


“The NHG Internal Medicine Residency Programme is deeply invested in nurturing meaningful growth in both our professional and personal lives. The training programme makes the study of medicine exciting and challenging, with a strong emphasis on clinical decision making, compassionate patient care, and scientific inquiry. I am proud to be part of this family with thoughtful and supportive mentors, faculty and peers.”

Dr Tan Jiekai, NHG Internal Medicine Resident

"My NHG IM experience has been one of perfect balance. The programme provides structured rotations and teachings to adequately equip me for patient care, but with enough flexibility to allow for major life events. I have been constantly challenged to refine my clinical acumen and management skills, but given enough supervision and opportunity for clarification to learn without compromising patient safety. This speaks to a culture which views its residents first and foremost as members of a community and not just cogs in a machine. People often talk about NHG's famed "kampung spirit". I am happy to report that it does exist, and proud to be part of it as well."

Dr Daniel Lim Jia Hui, NHG Internal Medicine Resident


I believe every resident joins a training programme looking to become a better version of themselves and to provide better care to our patients. Almost a year into residency later, I've yet to regret my decision! Being an Internal Medicine trainee can be stressful at times, but so far, I have never felt lost or unsupported - there are always friendly and nurturing seniors to look for advice or feedback. There are also plenty of options to contribute back to the programme if we wish to! The programme does not only build clinical acumen, but also offers leadership, teaching and administrative opportunities. I am proud to call myself a NHG IM resident!

Dr Au Shu Ting, NHG Internal Medicine Resident


"I absolutely adore the NHG Internal Medicine residency programme for its positive and nurturing environment. The supportive faculty and colleagues create an enlivening feeling that encourages exploration and growth. The emphasis on building strong doctor-patient relationships enhances my passion in providing comprehensive care. NHG has truly become my professional family, where I feel valued and inspired every day.
