ABOUT OHM
ABOUT OHM
Helping you get to the root of your condition for a more accurate diagnosis & treatment plan.
OHM focuses on MRI scans of Orthopaedic and Hand conditions. With 3 centres around Singapore, we are able to serve you in an efficient and timely manner. We have MRI systems to cater for sports injuries, degenerative and arthritic conditions, bone tumours and various hand problems.
You may be referred by your GP, orthopaedic or hand doctor, physiotherapist, neurosurgeon, pain doctor, or rheumatologist.
The parts of the body we can scan include the neck, the back (cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine- either as individual parts or a whole spine study), shoulders, elbows, wrists and fingers, hips, knees, ankles and feet. In patients who are bothered by small enclosed spaces, we offer an open high-field MRI machine so you can get the scan of your extremities done in the comfort of an arm chair.
If you have had previous surgery, let us know. We have various metal artifact reduction adaptations (tailored by US fellowship trained radiologists) that allow us to look for causes of persistent discomfort. Our operations focus around orthopaedic and hand – and we obsessively engineer and tweak the protocols to get as much information as we can. To date, our radiologists have collectively performed tens of thousand scans. They work with doctors across Singapore. If you wish to speak to our doctors, please let us know to set up an appointment.
OUR MANAGER
FLORENCE LIM
Marketing & Operations (OHM GROUPS)
- Project Development & Marketing
- Alumna of University of Louisville and CTMH
- Liverpool school of Tropical Medicine
- Field coordinator Medicine sans Frontiers.
Florence’s philosophy in life is, “Always render more than the expected service no matter your task”.
She understands that an MRI examination is the single most challenging experience for a patient with painful conditions or suffering from an incurable illness. She constantly is looking to find ways to walk these patients through this process with dignity and compassion.
Languages Spoken:
English, Malay, French, Mandarin
Intrigued by arts, travelling, and humanitarian work, Florence is constantly on the go. She enjoys a full life, doing what she is passionate about. In 2009, upon receiving news of her mother dying from stage 4 lung cancer, she returned to Singapore to prepare the family for palliative care. During her sabbatical leave from Medicine sans frontiers, she held her solo debut art exhibition, Cloud of Jewels, in memory of her mother.
In 2013, she was invited to operationalise a stand-alone imaging business to help individuals requiring periphery MRI with past experience of anxiety. Between 2019- 2020, while caring for her ailing father, she had the opportunity to witness how a patient would desire to be treated during examinations. It dawned upon her that the journey of medical treatment is far more important than the endpoint.
Just six months after her father had passed on, she was diagnosed with cancer. She told herself that was just the beginning. You need to trust your doctors, have faith in your treatments, open your hearts to receive support and continue to live on, and so she did.
Drawing on her own experience, caring for her parents and beneficiaries during her humanitarian postings, she jumped into the opportunity to operationalise and grow OHM services, invited great colleagues with visions to care and created jobs for like-minded individuals to be part of the team to build the business.
OHM has since grown to 3 outlets, with the 4th coming up in the 1st quarter of 2022. She is grateful that the constant flow of patients has given her team opportunities to provide the best services in a compassionate and caring environment.
Florence is eternally grateful to her late parents for bringing her up to be the selfless, task-driven, and dignified person she is today.
The company is blessed with great people, family support, and respectable partners & service providers working together to provide the best care that they can for patients.
