Introduction
Dr Shirley Bang is a Singapore Medical Council Certified Urological specialist and is one of the few female urologists in the country. Prior to her current practice, she was a full-time Consultant at Tan Tock Seng Hospital.
Dr Shirley’s subspeciality interest is in the treatment of urinary incontinence, overactive bladder syndrome (OAB), and neurogenic bladder as well as functional and reconstructive surgery of the urinary system. She also has an interest in bladder rehabilitation for post-stroke, post-brain surgery and trauma patients.
In view of Dr Shirley’s experience as an expert female urologist in Singapore, she has been invited to present at several local and regional conferences, such as the Urological Association of Asia Congress and Singapore Urofair. She is also actively involved in organising talks and courses, including GP forums, Singapore Continence Week and the Incontinence and Reconstructive Surgery Masterclass as part of the Singapore Urofair conference. She is a core faculty member of the National Healthcare Group (NHG) Urology Residency Programme and also a clinical tutor for both the NTU-Lee Kong Chian and NUS-Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine.
As part of Dr Shirley’s drive for quality improvement and patient safety, she was part of the team that won the first prize for the project entitled ‘The Urology Time-Out Script Trial’ at the 8th National Healthcare Quality Improvement Competition in 2011. This project was subsequently presented at the International Society for Quality in Healthcare (ISQua) conference in Geneva in 2012. She has also completed a hospital quality improvement project, leading a team to improve hospital processes.
Dr Shirley Bang’s wish, as one of the most experienced female urologists in Singapore, is to provide her patients with the best possible up-to-date treatment with good outcomes while providing cost-effective and patient-centred care at the same time. At present, Dr Shirley is the only female urologist at Advanced Urology and has gathered a lot of experience handling numerous patients with urological conditions over the years.
