Question

Accepted Answer

Please refer to the SMC’s Circular dated 27 April 2010 on the Guidelines on Display of Titles and Designations [PDF, 151 KB] for the information.

The designations used should reflect a doctor’s official appointment in a Hospital, Institution or Clinic. For Specialist titles, please refer to Annex A of the circular for examples of titles and designations approved by the Singapore Medical Council (SMC).

Please note that that a doctor must not display any qualification other than the qualifications entered in the registers under the Medical Registration Act 1997 (MRA) or one that is approved by the SMC as stated under Section 64 of the MRA.
