From professional athletes to weekend warriors, Dr Tan Chyn Hong has been helping people return to the sports and activities they love for decades.
Before becoming the Medical Director of The Orthopaedic Centre, Dr Tan led the Division of Sports Medicine at the National University Hospital in Singapore. His expertise spans Sports Injuries, Cartilage Regeneration, and Minimally Invasive Implantless Surgery, with a special focus on shoulder, knee, and elbow conditions.
A sportsman himself, Dr Tan once represented Singapore in judo at the SEA Games. Today, his passion for sports lives on through his work—treating athletes, preventing long-term damage, and helping patients get “back on their feet” stronger than before.
Dr Tan pioneered implantless arthroscopic rotator cuff shoulder surgery in Singapore, performing the first keyhole rotator cuff repair without metal or plastic implants. His knee expertise includes meniscus surgery, ligament reconstruction, and cartilage regeneration techniques.
As sports like pickleball grow in popularity, Dr Tan is seeing more overuse injuries such as tennis elbow—and provides tailored, sport-specific care to get you moving again with confidence.
Whether it’s a game-changing injury or a nagging joint problem, Dr Tan is committed to getting you back to doing what you love.
