Meet Dr Francisco, an experienced nephrologist and transplant immunologist. He specialises in the treatment of any kidney related problems and how our immune system contributes to diseases. He was trained in the largest hospital in Singapore and has more than 10 years of experience in this field. 

To him, nephrology focuses on a very unique part of the body. He likens it to an army that protects our bodies against infection and cancers. Many diseases don't just affect the kidneys, but the whole immune system of the body.

Dr Paul Tseng recently hosted a Session where he answered reader questions on Pregnancy, Childbirth, and IVF. He's a well-loved Obgyn and fertility specialist in Singapore who's delivered over 10,000 babies in the course of his career. Here are some of the gems he shared.

As you grow older, some things just won't be the way they were. You’re going to have to come to terms with this. You may not be as good-looking, and your joints might not be as strong. Probably worst of all, your eyes may not be as sharp as they once were.

Cataracts often develop slowly and can affect one or both eyes, best described as a clouding of the lenses which leads to a decrease in vision.

Fortunately, the rapid advancement of technology and breakthroughs in medical science can fix many of the things that once made growing old such a pain.

Cataract surgery is just one of these many advancements, and it has been ranked the most common forms of surgery in Singapore, due to the country’s aging population. 

DxD Sessions recently featured Dr Claudine Pang. She weighed in on the topic of cataract surgery, and gave her advice on the common questions that Singaporeans often ask.

Ase Wang is an actress and model who divides her time between Bangkok and Singapore. Born to a Chinese-Singaporean father and Swedish mother, she started modelling at the age of 18.

In Singapore, single women are not allowed to freeze their eggs. Ase decided to have her eggs frozen in Thailand because she was 36 and not ready to have a baby yet. She also knew that there was a chance she would not be able to have kids naturally due to low egg reserves. 

Join her live AMA on Thursday 25 October at 12 pm as she discusses her decision to freeze her eggs. You can submit your questions to Ase by leaving your comments at the following link: http://bit.ly/ase-wang-egg-freezing-ama.

Meet Samantha Yap, a fully registered nurse in Singapore who specialises in taking care of old people. Most of you may remember her from the article: 15 myths about nurses in Singapore. 

She has been a nurse in Singapore for 7 years now. She often calls herself a 'highly paid, glorified shit cleaner.' But, she still loves her job because she's very passionate about taking care of the elderly. Through her AMA, she hopes to be able to shed light and give recognition to the good work that nurses do. 

Join her live AMA on Wednesday, 31 October at 4 pm as she answers all the burning questions you have about being a nurse in Singapore. No holds barred! 

Dr Tony Ho is here to cast a big bright light on the subject. He has garnered 25 years of speciality experience in the Singapore refractive surgery arena, and has risen to become a prominent figure in the field. He pioneered epi-LASIK (flapless, bladeless LASIK surgery) in Singapore, and now acts as head doctor at Clearvision Eye Clinic & LASIK Centre.

Conventional methods don’t necessarily equate to being the most effective. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been steadily gaining traction in Singapore and plenty of folks seek out all kinds of cool (and intriguing) TCM treatments like herbal medication, acupuncture and cupping.

Let’s face it. Many of us have a strange and profoundly inexplicable fear of any medicinal practices that lie outside the norms of the mainstream, viewing them with a slightly raised eyebrow (or two) and even dismissing them outright as new age mumbo jumbo (even though they are often ancient).

It probably goes without saying that these fears aren’t always justified. After all, it's been officially recognised and regulated by MOH since 2004. Furthermore, shouldn’t ancient techniques that have been applied over centuries of practice (since before you were crawling around in diapers) hold some degree of weight?

Physician Lee Jin Shun, a registered TCM physician with Eu Yan Sang has a thing or two to say about this.

DxD Sessions features his opinions on TCM treatments in Singapore as he answers the most common questions surrounding the topic.

In a popular DxD post on back pain that's been read nearly 100,000 times, he gives an insightful low-down on the common causes of back pain, as well as the definitive method of treating it.

In between, he sprinkles plenty of amusing gems, referencing everything from the Star Wars Universe, to how treating back pain came to be a multi-million dollar industry in Singapore. 

His original guide is nearly 2000 words long, but for those who prefer the TLDR version, here are the key take-home messages.

Meet Dr Tabitha Chng, the most cheerful paediatric dentist who loves children. She has been creating beautiful smiles for children over a decade!

Before she decided on a specialisation, she was certain that she didn't want treat children. However, a chance encounter with a child patient in her 3rd year changed her perspective. 

Through that experience, she realised that she really enjoyed treating children. To her, there's nothing more satisfying than being able to see these children smile, laugh, and grow.

Liposuction has gotten a bit of a bad rap over the years. Most people think that it's an easy and convenient way to suck the fat out of people who are too lazy to lose weight on their own.

However, that cannot be further from the truth. PSA: Liposuction is not the magic formula to weight loss! To correct this misconception, DxD Sessions featured Dr Christopher Chui, a trained, certified and accredited plastic surgeon in Singapore (and Australia) to enlighten all of us. 

If you feel like liposuction is your best path towards a blissfully skinny future you, grab a salad and read on.
