Boon Chong Kwok
"I hope to transform healthcare delivery in Singapore."
Boon Chong Kwok is a physiotherapist with over 10 years’ experience and he’s now channelling that experience into his own private practice which he recently launched in Singapore. The 35-year-old describes his role as a physiotherapist with great enthusiasm stating, “it is an exciting job getting people well, and all cheered up.”
Previously having worked as the Head of Physiotherapy at the Thye Hua Kwan Moral Charities, a volunteer organisation, as well as at the Singapore Institute of Technology as an Adjunct Lecturer, he is relishing his studies and sees it an opportunity to revise his previous work in research.
“The knowledge acquired from the courses such as a critical appraisal of literature has been an excellent revision to my previous work in research. The institution has a wide range of access to e-books and e-journals to enhance my knowledge base.”
But his vision for the future is much grander – with plans to leave a legacy as a health care practitioner.
"I hope to lead and transform healthcare delivery in Singapore, with Physiotherapist [being] an important gatekeeper in primary care."
For the ambitious physiotherapist, another stand-out feature about his online learning journey is the “open communication and respectful culture in the university (the whole academia).” He says they “are two important characteristics that I find important in life.”
Without a moment’s hesitation, Boon says he would recommend the course to Physiotherapists such as himself who are interested in expanding and growing their health care skills.
“I would encourage them to take up the course if they are looking at blended learning and self-controlled pace of post-graduate education.”
