Dr. Mathew Tung Yu Yee is a specialist in Singapore Sports and Orthopedic Clinic inside Gleneagles Medical Center, which is just a 2-minute walk from the S’pore Botanic Gardens bus stop.

The clinic is open from Monday to Saturday with regular operating hours on weekdays.

Busier individuals who prefer weekend appointments may have trouble booking services here, so we recommend checking our other entries with longer timeslots.

Dr. Mathew is a spinal specialist neurosurgeon with surgery experience dating back as far as 1984 and international background from countries like the United Kingdom and China. 

He concentrates on treating brain and spine disorders such as back pain, neck pain, nerve pain, and headaches. 

The individuals we spoke to said Dr. Matthew urges people to do non-invasive procedures before opting for surgery. 

The reason is that he believes that this path is a quicker way to return to optimal function and that surgery might complicate a problem that can be treated with less downtime and cost.

We highly recommend Dr. Matthew to those seeking conservative procedures in tackling their injuries or other complications.

In the last 15 years, he has performed non-invasive procedures such as stereotactic radiotherapy for brain tumors and major operations like spinal laminectomy for spinal tumors.

That being said, he is one of the leading experts in this field and previous clients have received positive results from his work. 

Moreover, many love his professional yet friendly conduct during consultations. He deals with people with plenty of patience and provides all the necessary information regarding their neurological issues.

There was even a patient who had trouble with private care rates and Dr. Matthew assisted her in getting the necessary medicine from a government hospital to help cut down costs.

However, this clinic’s team is rather small. You may have issues with booking and the long queues might not be ideal for urgent care.

Neuro Asia Care can be found inside Mount Elizabeth Hospital, which is just a 5-minute walk from the Orchard Station bus stop. It is open all week except on Sundays, however, it closes very early on Saturdays.

We advise those who are usually busy to check our other entries with longer weekend business hours.

Dr. Nicolas Kon Kam King is an experienced neurosurgeon who specializes in neuro-oncology, minimally invasive brain surgery, functional neurosurgery, and deep brain stimulation.

He has experience working in other countries like Canada and the United Kingdom, where he received his Ph.D. in neuroscience.

His commitment to neurosurgery has granted him a long service award from the National Neuroscience Institute in Singapore. He’s also a recipient of several Service with A Heart honors by the Singapore General Hospital.

We highly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking help for Parkinson’s disease, brain tumors, brain hemorrhage, and spasticity, as these are his areas of specialty. 

The patients we interviewed spoke positively about the Deep Brain Stimulation treatment done by Dr. Nicholas. It managed to help out the patient’s father, who has Parkinson’s disease.

Moreover, he also mentioned the team’s organized work made the entire process more comfortable for his father who is now 90% better without tremors affecting his daily life.

The only drawback we found is this clinic has a relatively smaller team compared to other entries on this list. Urgent cases that need to be dealt with immediately might not be possible.

The National Neuroscience Institute is located inside Tan Tock Seng Hospital, which is an 8-minute stroll from the Revival Center bus stop.

It’s open with significantly long operating hours. However, it is closed on weekends. 

This may not be the ideal destination for those who are busy during the week or anyone preferring weekend appointments.

On the bright side, it has plenty of other branches around the island, namely Changi General Hospital, KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital, Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, and Sengkang General Hospital.

This enables patients to find the nearest clinic and get help immediately without needlessly traveling.

That being said, it also has a large neurology and neurosurgery department that are experts in handling a multitude of neurological issues such as brain tumors, head trauma, and spine disorders, to name a few.

Clients have also commented on this medical establishment’s efficient system wherein all they need to do is to scan their National Registration Identity Card at the entrance and follow the directions to their designated clinic.

However, we also gathered some negative feedback about some doctors being late to appointments. For instance, a patient waited for an hour without any information regarding the delay.

We understand that the specialists here work shifts since they also go to other clinics, but if they’ll be arriving late, the least they can do is inform their patients to avoid dissatisfaction.

Singapore General Hospital is located at 31 Third Hospital Ave, which is just a 10-minute walk from the Outram Park Station bus stop. It is open 24/7, making it an ideal destination for urgent neurological cases.

This establishment has the most diverse services on this list. In its neurology center, it has specialized programs to specifically deal with any concern a client may have.

With that said, it also has a very large team of neurology experts. Each one specializes in a specific field.

Its clinical services tackle neurological problems like epilepsy, stroke, neuromuscular, sleep disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and Parkinson’s disease.

In each program, clients are evaluated and diagnosed by specialists in this respective field, ensuring each patient gets the utmost care and best treatment available. 

For instance, in their sleep disorder division, individuals are monitored overnight to gather all the necessary information about their insomnia or daytime sleepiness, as well as any abnormal behavior while sleeping.

A multi-disciplinary approach all in one location with assessments for any neurological-related disorders. This detailed procedure is the same in any division, so clients can rest easy knowing they are getting the best help possible.

However, clients have mentioned to us that the waiting time in this place is quite frustrating. Some claimed to have waited for 3 hours to be attended to.

While we know it’s a very busy place, there needs to be some kind of customer engagement, especially if they will be waiting for hours. This will alleviate the bitterness of needlessly waiting.

We also received complaints regarding some of its doctors being quite robotic in their manner of talking to clients and were not very sympathetic or warm. 

We believe this is the case since doctors here treat plenty of patients all day. Be that as it may, customer care is still an important factor and this place could use some improvement in this regard.

Siow Neurology Headache & Pain Center can be found inside Mount Alvernia Hospital and is just beside the Opp Macritchie Reservoir bus stop. It has extended operating hours but is closed on Saturday and Sunday.

For anyone who prefers getting treated on weekends, we suggest checking our other entries on this list.

This clinic is well-renowned for helping patients manage common neurological issues like headaches and serious conditions such as Parkinson’s disease. It’s led by Dr. Charles Siow, a neurology specialist with 15 years of experience.

He also has experience working in other countries such as Ireland and the USA. Currently, he is the President of the Singapore Headache Society and a member of Singaporean and international neurological associations.

Dr. Charles’ background provided him the chance to be at the forefront of neurological practice and innovation, enabling him to provide the best possible care.

The patients we spoke to really liked Dr. Charles’ friendly approach to consultations and he also provides valuable advice to make sure proper steps are followed outside the clinic. This ensures that clients are consistent with their recovery even at home.

For instance, a client who was suffering from bouts of migraines for several years had found the help he needed in this clinic, and Dr. Charles was very insightful and friendly during his time with him.

Furthermore, when the client was experiencing severe migraines, Dr. Charles moved the appointment sooner so that he may provide the needed medication and help immediately.

However, some patients were not too pleased with the clinic’s staff because they were rude with their tone. This is something not very ideal in a neurological clinic, especially for those already dealing with discomfort.

Overall, Siow Neurology is an ideal destination for general neurological concerns, especially for those who are suffering from migraines.

Overall, with their well-equipped facilities, comprehensive and holistic treatment approaches, and accommodating customer service, we highly recommend them to clients in the area looking for such services.
