Earlier this month, Suntec Singapore Convention Centre hosted ELDEX Asia 2026, dedicated to empowering healthy ageing through community and preventive care.

Our Family Physician, Dr Caron Sak, was invited by Dr Chong Kian Tai from AsiaMD to present two key sessions:

📍 Practical Tips to Improve Healthspan (2nd Oct)
📍 Knowing Your Genetic Risks (3rd Oct)

Delivered in a unique silent conference format, these talks brought clinicians and attendees together to discuss wellness innovation and preventive medicine—aligning with national priorities to ensure longer lives are lived with vitality and dignity.
We are proud to see clinical expertise driving meaningful public health conversations! 🩺💪

Let's tackle one of the most stressful results in genetic testing: the VUS.

Misconception: A Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS) means something is wrong or you have a disease.

Fact: A VUS is a scientific question mark, NOT a diagnosis. It simply means there isn't enough evidence yet to classify the variant as either benign or harmful. The good news? Most VUS results are eventually reclassified as benign.

Crucially, medical management (like surgery or aggressive screening) should never be based on a VUS alone. Stay calm, and consult your genetic counselor!

TATLER HOUSE DIALOGUES x MOUNT ELIZABETH HOSPITALS
The Future of Longevity Starts with Understanding It Right

On September 24, 2026, Dr. Caron Sak was invited to the IHH Tatler Vietnam dialogue in Ho Chi Minh City to speak and join a panel discussing Cellular Longevity and Genetic Interception. Her talk, titled "Precision Geromedicine," offered insights into practicing evidence-based medicine, targeting “gero” (vitality), and personalizing longevity for every individual.

Joined by Ms. Sherrie Lim and Ms. Chung Thuy Linh, the session featured an engaging Q&A with the audience on translating healthcare insights and healthy longevity systems into practical, proactive steps for everyday life.

We recently hosted an insightful lunch talk with Family Physician Dr Caron Sak from Curie Genetics, who shared how to build a personalized action plan to improve health.

Attendees discovered how a deeper understanding of one's health profile can empower individuals — and their clients — to make informed healthcare decisions, take proactive steps toward disease prevention, and improve long-term healthspan.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this session — and to Dr Caron Sak for the valuable insights!

Let's clear up a major misconception:

Men absolutely need to be aware of hereditary cancer genes. 🧬

Myth: Men are off the hook when it comes to inherited cancer risk.

Fact: Men can carry genetic changes that significantly increase their risk for cancers, such as male breast cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, and others.

They can also pass these genetic changes on to their children. Knowledge is power. Talk to a genetic counsellor to find out more. 🧬

20/04/2026

Misconception: Hereditary cancer testing is only for breast or ovarian cancer.

Reality: Certain inherited genetic changes are associated with a higher risk of different cancers such as colorectal, prostate, pancreatic, stomach, and uterine cancers — among others.

Hereditary cancer is more than one disease, and testing can help identify risks early for individuals and families. Talk to a genetic counsellor to find out more. 🧬

On 31st March 2026, our Family Physician, Dr Caron Sak, represented the Centre For Genomic Health (CFGH), as a speaker as well as a panelist, at a lunch time talk organized exclusively for high-net-worth clients from UBS in collaboration with the launch of IHH Priority One service ✨

Dr Caron’s talk focused on genetic testing 🧪 and how it fits in as part of a health portfolio 💼❤️. Together with Dr. Tan Min Han (Lucence), Dr. Kristine Xie (Parkway Shenton) and moderated by Mr. Wayne Gordon (UBS Global Wealth), there was also a lively panel discussion 🎤💬 to explore how early detection and genetic awareness can empower clients to take charge 💪 of their long-term health and improve healthspan 🌟.

Misconception: A “negative” genetic test means I have no cancer risk.

Reality: A negative result doesn’t mean zero risk — especially if there’s a strong family history.

It simply means no known genetic changes (or mutations) were found with current testing technology and knowledge.

Some people have cancer due to factors we can’t detect yet:
* Chance clustering of sporadic cases in families
* Lower-penetrance genetic factors
* Shared environment
* Or a combination of these

Genetic testing is powerful — but it’s not a guarantee. Talk to a genetic counsellor to find out more. 🧬

24/02/2026

Misconception: All genetic tests are the same.

Reality: Genetic tests differ in scope — from single-gene tests to multi-gene panels and whole exome/genome sequencing.

Results are interpreted through careful variant classification:
* Pathogenic / Likely pathogenic
* Benign / Likely benign
* Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)

Not all results mean the same thing — and not all tests answer the same question. Talk to a genetic counsellor to find out more. 🧬

Tumour ≠ Germline.

Tumour testing finds mutations in the cancer.
Germline testing finds inherited changes present in every cell.
Both valuable. Just not the same.
