Clinic Background

International Medical Clinic provides family, paediatric and travel medicine to the expatriate community of Singapore. We continue to expand, and currently have two clinics and an increasing number of family doctors, who come from Canada, Australia and Singapore. Our in-clinic support staff come from a diverse range of countries, encompassing North America, Europe, Australia and Asia.

Our website www.imc-healthcare.com gives more details about the practice.

Our patient base is very diverse, reflecting the wide range of nationalities in the expatriate community. The typical profile of expatriates is a married couple between 30 and 40 years old, either expecting children or already having a young family. A large portion of our patients are therefore mothers and children. Whilst Singapore is itself free of some tropical diseases, this group also travels regularly in the Asian region, both for work and holidays, and consequently requires good travel medicine advice.

Broad Terms

The broad terms of the package offered include:

• Our clinics operate a 5 1/2 day week, and hours are negotiable
• Competitive base monthly salary
• Regular pay reviews to ensure performance is rewarded
• The management of International Medical Clinic invests in good people and rewards good people
• The management of International Medical Clinic works towards retaining our good people

The successful candidate can look forward to working with a close-knitted, dynamic and professional clinical team. For more information please contact us with your CV on  hr@imc-healthcare.com
