About Centre for Advanced Orthopaedics
Sarbjit Singh, Senior Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, MBBS (Singapore), FRCS (Edinburgh), FRCS (Glasgow), FAMS (Orthopaedics), runs Centre for Advanced Orthopaedics at Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre, a private tertiary hospital in Singapore. He was Founding President of ASAMI ASEAN and, per his LinkedIn, performed Asia's first PRECICE Stryde implantation in 2019, after earlier first uses of Fitbone (2001) and ISKD (2006). Methods listed are Fitbone, PRECICE 2, PRECICE Stryde, LON, LATN and Ilizarov.
No price is published. Stryde remains on the method list despite the 2021 FDA Class II recall, so confirm what is implanted now. The clinic's own Google listing has one review; a November 2021 forum post raised one patient's alignment concerns, too little to rate. Rehabilitation arrangements are not documented, and the only accreditation recorded is the hospital itself. Mount Elizabeth provides international patient services, and he consults in English, Malay, Indonesian and Hokkien.
