Doctor in the House: How Much Do You Know About Your Health?

Whether it’s to tackle the rising incidence of non-communicable diseases or curbing the spread of COVID-19, it’s important that we equip ourselves with the knowledge to make decisions about our health.

On today’s show, consultant urologist Dr George Lee is joined by Komathi Perialathan, a health education officer from the Institute for Health Behavioural Research, at the Ministry of Health to dive deeper into the issue of health literacy.
