Updated by MOH

Licensees cannot use terms associated with a particular medical specialty in their names or logos if there is no registered specialist actively practising that specialty under the licensee. Any terms that create an unjustified impression to patients that the LHS provided relates to a specialty, in the absence of a relevant registered specialist, will not be allowed.


In this example, the use of “The Neurology Clinic” is not allowed if there is no Neurologist actively practising in the clinic.
