Get to know more about the expert

Dr Shirley Yap is a prosthodontist at Thomson Specialist Dentistry. She has been practising dentistry since 1985.

Dr Yap pursued her bachelor's degree at the National University of Singapore (NUS) as a Public Service Commission (PSC) scholar and worked at Singapore General Hospital and National University Hospital (NUH). In 1988, NUH sponsored her to pursue a postgraduate degree at the Eastman Dental Hospital in London, UK.

Upon her return, Dr Yap served as a Registrar at NUH and contributed to NUS as a clinical supervisor at the Department of Restorative Dentistry from 1989 to 1993. After leaving for private practice in 1993, she has volunteered for several medical-dental missions to Cambodia, Vietnam, the Philippines, China, and Mongolia to provide free dental services to underprivileged communities in orphanages and with non-governmental organisations.

Dr Yap's commitment to the community extends beyond her volunteer work; she also served on the executive committee of the Association of Women Doctors (Singapore) from 2004 to 2009, contributing to the advancement of women in the medical field.
