Our Philosophy
Sustain was founded to realise the gap of Lifestyle Medicine in today's society. The rise of chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension and obesity is alarming, especially when 90% of the cases are preventable. Our vision is to educate and empower you as an individual in making sustainable lifestyle changes that would decrease your long term risk of medical problems.
We believe that no two patients are the same, and therefore pride ourselves on our innovative programs customised for each patient’s needs. Our practice is driven by evidence-based medicine using a multidisciplinary approach to provide international standards of quality care. At Sustain, we endeavor to ascertain the root of all concerns because that’s where we believe change should arise from. Our ultimate goal is that these changes are attainable, compatible and sustainable
“The doctor of the future will give no medication, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, diet and in the cause and prevention of disease. ~ ”
― Thomas A. Edison

Weight Management
Over 1.9 billion people worldwide are overweight or obese and the rates are rising exponentially, even in what appears to be the ‘health conscious era’.
Intensive Therapeutic Lifestyle Change
With the rise in non-communicable diseases, it is becoming so much more vital for healthy lifestyles to begin at younger ages in order to prevent these chronic diseases.
Corporate Wellness
Corporate wellness is a pertinent issue in today’s society. Staff absenteeism has shown to disrupt workflow processes, reduce morale, and increase stress and anxiety, all of which affect the success and growth of a company.
Educational Workshops
We believe that knowledge is king and therefore are ardent in delivering our educational workshops on a variety of topics.
Mindful Eating
This program is based on the well known US “Am I Hungry?” Mindful Eating Program. This program is ideal for you if you want to break away from rigid diet plans, yoyo dieting, binge eating or restrictive eating and simply want to start reconnecting with your body.
