SingHealth has developed a ‘one-stop’ online health portal – www.healthxchange.com.sg – where everything on health can be found with a unique combination of content and applications.

As Singapore’s largest healthcare group, SingHealth is able to provide trusted information from our large pool of doctors and other healthcare professionals across our 3 hospitals, 5 national specialty centres and network of polyclinics covering 42 medical specialties.

             
With Health Xchange, the public can have access to useful medical information and healthy lifestyle advice, and thus be able to make better, informed healthier lifestyle/medical choices for themselves and their families. Expect to see all sorts of health and lifestyle related content catering to men, women and children that will be updated regularly.

Through the interactive forums, Health Xchange also offers a new channel for patients and public in general to interact online with each other and with SingHealth doctors and healthcare professionals under the ‘Meet the Specialists’ segment.

There will also be special ‘Meet the GPs’ sessions as well where GPs will be invited to address medical issues commonly faced or brought up by their patients. Health Xchange has already lined up an interesting list of topics under ‘Meet the Specialists’ including LASIK, weight management, heart health and bones & joints concerns. 

What makes Health Xchange different?

Tailored for Asians

There are currently many existing healthcare-related websites, but they are often written based on experiences and cultures that are quite different from ours. Health Xchange is unique in that it is created for Asians by Asians. Health Xchange provides reliable and relevant information tailored for Singaporeans, taking into account local dietary habits, customs and religious beliefs.

Two-way communication

Users can also participate in interactive sections covering healthy living tips, recipes and healthcare information. Catering to all age groups, the forum encourages participants to share tips related to their everyday lives. The objective is to create a sense of community to help Singaporeans take charge of their healthcare needs and become partners with their doctors.
