Dr Edwin Thong, Integrated Programme for Haematology, 2019 Cohort
"
All the soarings of my mind begin in my blood."- Rainer Maria Rilke
"Haematology is a specialty that demands intellectual rigour fused with the passion for service running through one's veins. The Integrated Programme for Haematology provides senior residents with an ideal specialty training platform. It is a unique programme that allows broad exposure to various aspects of haematology through cross-cluster rotations across various institutions, harnessing each institution's strengths in blooding a well-rounded haematologist.
Being based at NUHS gives us access to world-class faculty who are always ready to guide us and contribute to our professional and personal development. We are also provided with many resources to tap on to further our interests, be it in research, medical education, or quality improvement projects.
The programme is an intense but fulfilling one with well-curated teaching sessions and rigorous clinical demands, which help mould us into better doctors and haematologists. We welcome new blood to our programme and guarantee a blast of a time!"
