MaNaDr, the gold event sponsor, believes more than 500 attendees visited its’ booth to inquire about the weight management program.
“We were thrilled by the enthusiasm and level of engagement surrounding weight management at the event,” said MaNaDr chief executive officer and co-founder Dr. Siaw Tung Yeng. “The fact that our program is easy to follow seemed to be very appealing to most everyone we spoke to.”
Three features of the program, he said, attracted the most attention. “First, we have a one-stop online platform with 24/7 service, so patients can always get the weight-related medical care, prescriptions and support they need, usually with minimal waiting time. Second, all our doctors in the program are certified family physicians with Singapore’s latest Basic Obesity Management Accreditations. Also, each patient is also assigned a dedicated care manager who follows up on their progress, continually ensuring they receive the service they need.”
Dr. Siaw added that the program also provides each patient with app functions designed to track weight loss progress, set personal weight goals, and access tools such as a BMI calculator.
The program also provides opportunities for doctors to network with their peers and weight management specialists, said Dr. Siaw, and to utilize the company’s platform, which is integrated with various smart devices designed to track patient progress and adjust their plan as necessary.
“As the topic of weight management gains prominence in Singapore, we invite individuals concerned about this issue to discover the services we offer.”
