The Head of Diagnostic Division and also our only practising local Radiologist Dr Lim Kian Soon has recently left RIPAS Hospital to join his wife who was also a practising Breast Surgeon Miss Hani Trasil to work in Singapore.
Dr Lim was well known to all the doctors working at RIPAS for his work in improving the services at department of radiology, and of of his many achievements was to obtain the 64 slice CT scanner for RIPAS Hospital which had tremendously improve our imaging capability. We are now able to diagnose diseases with better precision, do 3-D CT Reconstruction, Cardiac CT Imaging and perform interventional radiology procedures with better precision and outcome. We are definitely going to miss having somebody of his calibre around, but nonetheless wish him all the very best in his future career abroad.
Send us a postcard Dr Lim!

It is really disappointing that the MoH hasn't managed to come up with any kind of plan or long term solution to reduce the numbers of locals leaving the service.
If they have, then they are keeping it to themselves.
Well done Dr Lim and Ms Hani. I'm sure, most of us will be hoping to join you soon.
There will be more GPs, A&E and public health docs joining him soon. In case you guys haven't heard, on call (out of normal hours) allowance have been scrapped for these doctors. So either the out of hours services will stop or doctors will leave to places where doctors are more appreciated
