While working in the hospital setting here in Singapore, our clinical director worked with both local and expat scoliosis patients and their families and noted a significant difference in the severity of curvature and age at diagnosis between these cohorts. Regrettably, the majority of expat children presented with a visibly curved spine, requiring more aggressive treatment plans, including the potential for surgery.

Investigations into why this was happening, revealed a lack of routine screenings and preventive health check-ups, across all common preventable health conditions for children, in both the clinical and school settings for international school students. This leading to the late diagnosis of preventable childhood conditions such as Scoliosis, hearing issues, and vision problems.
