About Advantage Medical Clinic, Bukit Timah (Guthrie House)

Advantage Medical Group is a Singapore healthcare group operating GP clinics and full-service medical centres across the island, positioned around the idea of "the clinical depth of a longevity clinic, the continuity of a GP who knows you." The group currently runs three active locations: full-service medical centres at Guthrie House in Bukit Timah and Parkway Parade (Office Tower) near East Coast, plus a GP clinic in Jurong West.

Services span a wide range of preventive and diagnostic care, including executive health screening, cancer screening, the SPOT-MAS cancer blood test, pre-marital health screening, STD testing, Screen For Life (SFL) national screening, and children's health. The group also handles regulatory medical check-ups such as 6ME & FDW medicals, driver's medicals, PR & LTVP medicals, and work pass medicals for SPass, EPass, and permit holders.

On the diagnostic imaging side, Advantage Medical Group offers X-ray, ultrasound (including gut health and abdominal ultrasound), mammogram, treadmill ECG stress testing, DEXAFit body composition scanning, and osteoporosis / bone mineral density testing. In-clinic procedures include weight management, ear syringing, iron infusion, and allergy testing, alongside a full vaccination programme covering measles (MMR), shingles, pneumococcal, influenza, meningitis, yellow fever, and RSV vaccines.

The group accepts CHAS (Community Health Assist Scheme) and works with a range of corporate insurance plans and TPAs, including Alliance Healthcare, Fullerton Health, Mednefits, Parkway Shenton, MHC, Great Eastern, Magenta Wellness, CliniFlex, IHP, and Raffles Health Insurance, though it is no longer on the AIA panel.

Advantage Medical Group: GP Care and Health Screening Across Singapore

Advantage Medical Group positions itself around a simple pairing of ideas: the clinical depth of a longevity clinic, combined with the continuity of a GP who knows you. Rather than a single clinic, the group operates across three active locations in Singapore, giving patients access to the same range of services whether they're closer to Bukit Timah, the East Coast, or Jurong West.

Three Locations, One Standard of Care

Guthrie House in Bukit Timah and Parkway Parade (Office Tower) near Marine Parade are both run as full-service medical centres, offering a complete suite of services under one roof — from health screening to X-ray, mammogram, DEXA, and general practice consultations. The Jurong West clinic operates as a GP clinic, on panels with corporate plans, TPAs, and schemes.

Guthrie House sits at 1 Fifth Avenue, a five-minute walk from Sixth Avenue MRT Station, with basement parking available. Parkway Parade's Office Tower location is a three-minute walk from Marine Parade MRT (Exit 1), with two carparks and flat, wheelchair-accessible entry from carpark levels P4 through P7. Jurong West's clinic sits along Jurong West Street 41, reachable via bus from Lakeside MRT, with open-air parking available behind the block. Each location has its own resident and visiting general practitioners, including Dr Yap Kee Yang Brendan, Dr Magnus Lim Jing Shuan, Dr Alex Yeo, and Dr Vivyan Tay, who rotate across the group's clinics.

It's worth noting that the group's former Geylang and Bedok clinics have both permanently closed — Bedok on 10 May 2024 and Geylang on 1 November 2024 — leaving the three current locations as the active network.

Screening and Diagnostics at the Core

A major part of Advantage Medical Group's offering is preventive health screening. This includes executive health screening, cancer screening (covering breast, prostate, and colon cancer), the SPOT-MAS cancer blood test for early detection, pre-marital health screening, STD testing, and participation in Screen For Life (SFL), Singapore's national screening programme. On the diagnostic imaging side, the group offers on-site X-ray (available at Guthrie House Monday to Saturday), ultrasound including gut health and abdominal scans, mammogram services, treadmill ECG stress testing, DEXAFit body composition scanning, and osteoporosis and bone mineral density testing.

Beyond Screening: Regulatory Medicals and In-Clinic Procedures

The group also handles a range of mandatory medical check-ups required for various visa and work pass categories in Singapore — including 6ME and FDW medicals, driver's medicals, PR and LTVP medicals, and SPass, EPass, and work permit holder medicals. In-clinic procedures cover weight management (including Ozempic), ear syringing, iron infusion, and allergy testing via skin prick and blood tests.

A comprehensive vaccination programme rounds out the offering, covering MMR, shingles (Shingrix), pneumococcal, influenza, meningitis, yellow fever, and RSV vaccines — useful both for routine immunisation and travel preparation.

Paying for Care

Advantage Medical Group accepts CHAS (Community Health Assist Scheme) alongside a range of corporate insurance plans and third-party administrators, including Alliance Healthcare, Adept Health, Fullerton Health, Mednefits, Parkway Shenton, MHC, Great Eastern, Magenta Wellness, CliniFlex, IHP, and Raffles Health Insurance. The group notes it is no longer on the AIA panel, so patients relying on AIA coverage should check alternative arrangements.
