Medical services in Singapore are excellent, with staff almost
everywhere speaking good English and using up-to-date techniques.
Pharmacies (Mon-Sat 9am-6pm) are well stocked with familiar brand-name
drugs, and pharmacists can recommend products for skin complaints or
simple stomach problems, though if you're in any doubt, it always pays
to get a proper diagnosis. Pharmacists also stock oral contraceptives,
spermicidal gels and condoms.
Larger hotels have doctors on call at all times. Dentists are listed in
the Singapore Buying Guide (equivalent to the Yellow Pages) under
"Dental Surgeons", and "Dentist Emergency Service".
