Duxton Medical Clinic is a family GP clinic at Tanjong Pagar Plaza in Singapore, run by Dr Ho Hua Shen (MBChB, Glasgow 2007) and Dr Ho Hua Sze (MBBS, Singapore 2003). Alongside standard GP consultations and minor surgery, the clinic offers a wide range of additional services including Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) certification, laser treatment by appointment, vaccinations, work permit medical screening, general health screening, STD screening, and Eldershield/Elderfund assessments.
Work permit screening covers domestic helpers, S-Pass holders and permit renewals, while health screening includes routine general checks, general consultations and chronic disease management. STD screening covers chlamydia, gonorrhoea, Hepatitis B and C, herpes, and HIV testing (p24 antibody, p24 antigen and PCR).
The clinic accepts a wide range of insurance and medical cards, including PruPriorityPlus, Great Eastern SupremeCare, Alliance-Tokio Marine/Alliance AXA/Alliance AIA, ParkwayShenton iXchange-Cigna-Shenton Insurance, Alliance i-Medicare, AXA Medismart and International Exclusive, Alliance Medinet, MBS@Gov, and CHAS/Pioneer Generation, with a note to call for the most updated list. A second Duxton Medical Clinic location operates at Canberra.
Duxton Medical Clinic sits at Tanjong Pagar Plaza in Singapore, offering standard family GP care alongside a notably broad range of additional medical services under one roof.
The clinic is run by Dr Ho Hua Shen, who trained at the University of Glasgow (MBChB, 2007), and Dr Ho Hua Sze, a Singapore-trained doctor (MBBS, 2003). Beyond standard GP consultations and minor surgery, the clinic has built out services that go well past a typical neighbourhood practice.
One of the clinic's more specialised offerings is work permit medical screening, covering domestic helpers, S-Pass holders, and permit renewals — a service commonly needed by Singapore employers and households managing foreign worker documentation. This sits alongside more general health screening, covering routine checks, general consultations, and ongoing chronic disease management for existing patients.
Duxton Medical Clinic also runs a comprehensive STD screening panel, testing for chlamydia, gonorrhoea, hepatitis B and C, herpes, and HIV — the latter covering p24 antibody, p24 antigen and PCR testing methods. Offering this kind of screening as a standard clinic service, rather than requiring a referral elsewhere, gives patients a more private and straightforward path to testing.
Beyond clinical care, the clinic also handles Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) certification and Eldershield/Elderfund assessments — both administrative processes that often require a doctor's involvement, and both practical needs for families managing care arrangements for older relatives. Laser treatment is also available by appointment, alongside standard vaccination services.
The clinic maintains health information resources touching on major health risks in Singapore, including cancer (the country's leading cause of death) and heart disease and stroke, pointing patients toward preventive steps like regular exercise, balanced diet, moderate alcohol consumption, and sun protection with SPF 30+ sunblock. The clinic notes that many serious conditions don't show symptoms until later stages, reinforcing the value of regular screening based on age, sex, and family history.
Duxton Medical Clinic accepts a wide range of insurance and medical cards, including PruPriorityPlus, Great Eastern SupremeCare, several Alliance-branded plans, ParkwayShenton iXchange-Cigna-Shenton Insurance, MBS@Gov, and CHAS/Pioneer Generation cards — though the clinic recommends calling to confirm the most current accepted list.
Duxton Medical Clinic is open Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 1pm and 2pm to 4pm, and Saturdays from 9am to 1pm, with last registration 15 minutes before closing. It's closed on Sundays and public holidays. The clinic is located at 7 Tanjong Pagar Plaza, #01-106, facing the junction of Craig Road and Tanjong Pagar Road, directly behind the Vanda Ms Joaquim Pavilion, with a second location at Canberra.
