Lee Kim En Neurology Pte Ltd

Lee Kim En Neurology Pte Ltd Dr Lee Kim En is a renowned neurologist in Singapore. Dr Lee Kim En has set up his own practice at Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre.

The brain is an unbelievably complex structure. Just one stroke and all may be lost. A mere headache may mean the end of a promising career. Some numbness may spell trouble with the nerves at the back. His practice represents an exploration, a questioning, an introspection, and is marked by a new sharpness and vivacity, characterised by a patient tact and a gentle personality, and carries a special mixture of warmth, elegance and kindness. For twenty years, Dr Lee dedicated himself selflessly to the public service - training among the very best, working extremely hard, teaching medical students and nurses, nurturing junior doctors and nurse clinicians, serving patients in Alexandra Hospital, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, Changi General Hospital, Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, and leading the National Neuroscience Institute as Deputy Director, Education Director, Head (Neurology). He played a pivotal role in the setting up of Acute Stroke Service, making available the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging for all suspected ischemic stroke patients, and implementing the "Hub and Spoke" model for TeleStroke Service at the National Neuroscience Institute. As a nurturing leader, he promoted four doctors to the rank of Senior Consultant, four to Consultant, two to Associate Consultant, two to Senior Resident Physicians and three to Advanced Nurse Practitioner. During his tenure, seven were appointed as teaching adjuncts to the National University of Singapore, and thirteen were attracted to train in Neurology. Countless hours were spent reviewing patients - some with weakness, others with confusion, many more with headaches, giddiness, numbness - and mapping out their treatment plans and pondering over challenging dilemmas. Many patients form a big part of who he is, and he holds them close to his heart remembering each and every one. Dr Lee seeks to do his very best to touch the lives of all that come to him.

“Migraine is a progressive disease”, “ineffective or late treatment can favor progression”, “from improvement to optimal care”, “resistant vs refractory”, “is migraine freedom possible?” - evolving concepts! (Australia, Continuing Medical Education)

Blocking the C5 complement protein, which is involved in the damage of immune system, marks a new era in the management of generalised Myasthenia Gravis and Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder, especially for those patients requiring life support treatment in the Intensive Care Unit!

In the midst of his first-time consultation in my clinic, he unwrapped this specially crafted desk name plate made of solid wood with my Chinese name engraved in gold. I must have looked so utterly stunned by his lovely gesture that he asked in a most concerned voice if he got my name right. Never had I such an amazing encounter in my more than three decades of clinical practice! (Indonesia, Entrepreneur)

9 August 2025
Celebrating Singapore’s sixtieth birthday at the National Day Parade caps a week of ups and downs: lost an elderly patient to a most virulent infection, received a lovely bouquet of flowers from an Australian patient, misunderstood my clinic staff by a first-time walk-in patient, gifted a most amazing treat of Japanese fruits (peaches, grapes, plums, melon) by an Indonesian patient. And so we press on. Majulah Singapura!

The coffee always arrive in great style with captivating fragrance. Sometimes they come in packets of beans, other times in canisters with powder, a couple of times in capsules fitting my functional espresso machine. Sometimes from afar - Sumatra, Java or Vietnam, other times local but exotic, a couple of times expertly self-roasted. Sometimes accompanied by disposable coffee filter bags, other times the old-fashioned reusable coffee cotton filter, a couple of times a coffee plunger and a coffee grinder. Each time I enjoy my cup of hot coffee, I think of my very dear patients and their loved ones!

Bought before I left Boston in 2001, it was engraved with the initials of my beloved wife who had to manage our children amidst a fledgling GP clinic. “Too small for house call use!” She exclaimed, and so this vintage Boston bag kept me company for the past twenty-four years moving from office to office, clinic to clinic, hospital to hospital!

We couldn’t speak the language of each other. Yet, our chemistry was palpable, having survived a complex stroke involving the speech area of his brain, intractable pain in his face, arm and leg, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown. He knew I wanted him to stop smoking completely. “Kom, kom!” he reiterated, before handing me a huge bag of delicious mangoes that he personally carried in his travel luggage - beshi, beshi!

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” These cards from my patients, from their loved ones, from my students - local and overseas, from my juniors, from my colleagues, from my seniors, they carry so many inspiring words of gratitude, appreciation, kindness and encouragement that keep me going in the hardest of times!

Like many before them, and many after them, these five elective students began their day at 7am - tutorials, morning reports, followed by morning rounds in the neuro intensive care unit, outpatient clinics, department grand rounds, afternoon rounds and more tutorials over endless topics - TIA, VBI, CVA, CEA, CAS, SAH, SDH, MG, MS, NMO, GBS, ALS, NPH, MSA, PD, CBD, PSP, AD, NORSE, NMDA, VGKC, CJD. At the end of the intense four-week elective posting, there could only be one outcome: Feeling lost at 7am the very first Monday after - “Neurology Withdrawal Syndrome”!

Putting this stunningly beautiful Namiki pen in my hand, which was made with the utmost attention to detail with an ancient technique - the Crane and Turtle design created using colored Urushi and raw lacquer covered in silver and gold powder, he smiled and told me how much he enjoyed the many schmoozes that we shared. “Dr Lee, you are a mensch!” (Australia, Accountant/Businessman)
