Medical & Dental Services
Healthcare is the heartbeat of HealthServe. Each year, thousands of migrant workers walk through the doors of our dental and medical clinics located in Geylang.
Our clinics offer subsidised services to low-wage migrant workers who lack adequate health assistance. We primarily support migrant workers in the construction, marine and process (CMP) sectors.
Dental care is an area not covered by the government’s Primary Care Plan (PCP) for migrant workers in the CMP sectors. HealthServe is committed to being the catalyst for accessible and equitable dental care for these low-wage workers.
With majority of the workers in the CMP sectors now covered under the PCP, HealthServe’s medical clinic prioritises provision of GP services to migrant workers who fall through the cracks, as well as workers with complex medical problems or work place injuries. We also continue to provide chronic disease management, specialist consultations (orthopaedics, dermatology) and rehabilitation services (occupational therapy, physiotherapy) for workers in need.
For both consultation and medication, patients only need to pay a flat fee of $8 for acute medical conditions and $15 for complex medical care; $15 for simple dental procedures and $30 for complex dental procedures. Fees are waived for migrant workers who are Special Pass holders or those who have been referred by other partner NGOs.

Hear From Our Community
If we visit [private] clinics, the consultation fee is high and there’s a language barrier, they can’t understand me. That’s why I came here. For those people from my hometown with fevers or headaches, I will recommend them to come here.
HealthServe has made me feel more secure about being in a foreign country and reminded me not to be afraid or lonely in case I need medical or emotional support.
I thinking, I no makan but no die, maybe HealthServe come from God to help me.
HealthServe saved my life.
What I’m most grateful to HealthServe for is... showing me a direction to work towards, whenever there is something I don’t understand. And when we don’t receive our rightful compensation, HealthServe mediates for us with the government and our employers.
HealthServe has been really helpful to me, especially with my medical expenses and issues
Everyone here is really friendly and nice, and is always willing to offer a listening ear
