About Raffles Chinese Medicine (Raffles Hospital)
Raffles Chinese Medicine is a TCM clinic operating within Raffles Hospital at 585 North Bridge Road, Singapore. It has been verified by KakiList, meaning a real person confirmed the operating details and contact channel. The clinic holds a 4.9-star rating across 7 Google reviews, though this is a very small sample and should be treated as directional only. Pricing is indicated at mid-range ($$); a specific per-session fee was not provided.
Patients typically begin with a first consultation, during which the TCM practitioner conducts a full assessment — reviewing presenting conditions such as musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, digestive complaints, gynaecological concerns, or chronic illness — before recommending a treatment approach. This may include acupuncture, herbal prescriptions, tui na, or cupping. Being situated within Raffles Hospital means patients with more complex or co-managed conditions may have access to broader medical support on the same premises. Enquire about single-session versus package pricing, cancellation policy, and whether the practitioner has a specific clinical focus relevant to your condition.
To make an appointment, contact Raffles Chinese Medicine directly by phone or through the enquiry form, and ask for the practitioner's registration details with the Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners Board (TCMPB) before your first visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Raffles Chinese Medicine (Raffles Hospital) charge per session?›
A specific per-session fee has not been published for Raffles Chinese Medicine (Raffles Hospital), though pricing is indicated at a mid-range level. TCM consultations in Singapore typically run S$30–80 for an initial consultation, with acupuncture sessions often S$60–150 and herbal prescriptions priced separately by the dispensing quantity. Ask whether the first consultation is bundled with treatment or billed separately, and confirm the no-show and cancellation policy before booking. Package deals for recurring treatment — common for conditions requiring multiple sessions — may offer a per-session discount over individual bookings. Confirm whether GST is included in the quoted price. See the full TCM cost guide for Singapore →
Do I need a referral or assessment first?›
No referral is required to book a TCM consultation, though having a GP summary or specialist report can be helpful if you are managing a chronic or complex condition alongside conventional medical treatment. The first visit typically involves a detailed intake — tongue and pulse diagnosis, review of medical history, and discussion of presenting symptoms — before any needles are placed or herbs prescribed. If you intend to claim through an integrated shield plan or corporate insurance, check whether your insurer requires a GP referral or prior authorisation for TCM claims. Patients with bleeding disorders, pacemakers, or who are pregnant should disclose this before treatment, as some modalities carry contraindications.
Is the practitioner at Raffles Chinese Medicine (Raffles Hospital) licensed?›
In Singapore, all practising TCM physicians must be registered with the Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners Board (TCMPB) under the Ministry of Health. Registration is verifiable on the TCMPB's public online register at the MOH website — search by the practitioner's name before your appointment. Unregistered practice of TCM is an offence under the Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners Act. No regulatory licences were listed for this provider on KakiList at the time of writing, so it is advisable to confirm the consulting physician's TCMPB registration number directly with the clinic. Being located within Raffles Hospital provides an institutional context, but the individual practitioner's registration remains the relevant credential to verify. Confirm the practitioner's licence number on the TCMPB public register before treatment.
