Oh yes. He has finished his first year in SUTD. I think his stint in the Navy helped him mature.

Hi, my son enlisted last week, 2 days after he had injured his heel, they sent him to CGH for X-ray on Sat, no fracture, 2days MC on Sat & Sun. But when he book in back on Monday, he still feels hurts and walk also limping. I asked him to see the MO if still pain. After few days, his heel is super pain and the MO give him the referral letter (suspect ligaments tear) to refer to TTSH specialist, they excepted him all excessive training, but do not allow him to book out early, must wait till 22Feb.

How can I request to allow my son to book out early in order for him to go TTSH for check up? I worry that it will get worsen if delay treatment. Anyone can help?

My friend's DS was injured during his army training and my friend seek help from her GRC MP, the MP was kind and wrote a letter to the army so that her son was exempted from some kinds of training. It was around 20 year ago.

Thanks for all the info. Some asked me to complain to mindef, but mindef hotline can’t even get thru, and I also feel bad to complain them.
Anyone know that with the MO referral letter, can I walk-in to TTSH orthopaedic clinic there to see a doctor or I must make appt? my son only can book out 22feb in the morning, I tot that bring him straight to TTSH to check before he go collect his result from school, he has to book in on 23feb
