Proud of CGH geriatric medicine senior consultant Clin Asst Prof Christopher Lien for being conferred the Distinguished Senior Clinician Award 2025 at the SingHealth Doctors' & Dentists' Long Service Award Ceremony! 🏆

The prestigious accolade recognises eminent senior clinicians who are role models in public healthcare, and celebrates their outstanding contributions to clinical care, research and education.

Dr Lien has played a transformative role in shaping geriatric medicine in Singapore. From the country’s first orthogeriatric service to establishing and growing CGH's Community Geriatric Services, his work has consistently bridged care for seniors across hospital and community settings.

Dr Lien leads key initiatives such as the EAGLEcare (Enhancing Advance Care Planning, Geriatric Care and End of Life Care in Nursing Homes in the East) programme, enhancing advance care planning and end-of-life care for nursing home residents; and the Hospital to Home Service, enabling continuity of care beyond discharge and in the home setting. His efforts have improved clinical outcomes, and empowers care that honours the preferences of patients to be comfortably looked after at their end of life.

A dedicated educator and mentor, Dr Lien also continues to shape the next generation of healthcare professionals, whilst driving system-wide improvements through collaboration and research in elderly care.

Congratulations Dr Lien on this well-deserved recognition for advancing care for our seniors.

We also celebrate our other CGH doctors who were recognised for their decades of dedicated service—thank you for your long-standing commitment to care. 💙

Swelling that doesn’t go away may be more than just fluid retention. In some cases, it could be lymphoedema – a condition where lymph fluid builds up due to abnormalities in the lymphatic system.

Recognising the signs early can make a meaningful difference. With timely assessment and appropriate management, lymphoedema can be better controlled to help patients maintain their comfort and quality of life.
