In 2019, Dr Goh Lay Hoon took one of the boldest steps in her career by deciding to pursue a PhD. On track to be a senior consultant back in 2020, she was encouraged by her then Head of Department, Prof Doris Young, who saw immense value in having a PhD holder within the Family Medicine Department and recognised that it aligned with Dr Goh\u2019s own passion and interest in health services research.<\/p>\n

Dr Goh has since graduated as part of the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine Graduating PhD Class of 2024. She is currently an Assistant Professor at Department of Medicine at NUS Medicine and a Senior Consultant at the Department of Family Medicine in the National University Health System.<\/p>\n

By demonstrating that it is never too late to pursue research, Dr Goh hopes to inspire fellow GPs and family medicine practitioners to explore health services research in order to raise the standards of care delivery in their field.<\/p>\n
