Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects millions of people worldwide, including a significant portion of Singapore’s population. If diabetes is not managed properly, it can lead to serious health problems, such as heart disease, kidney failure, vision loss, nerve damage, and even amputations.
In Singapore, nearly one in three people are at risk of developing diabetes, and one in 10 already has the condition. An average of four individuals with diabetes undergo amputations due to complications every day.
At the National University Health System (NUHS), we are committed to providing comprehensive care and support for individuals living with diabetes. Our goal is to empower patients with the knowledge and tools they need to manage their condition effectively. Whether you are newly diagnosed, have been living with diabetes for years, or are at risk of developing the condition, our multidisciplinary healthcare team — including doctors, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists and case managers— is here to support you every step of the way.
