Sister Anna Seah
Sister Anna started her career more than 20 years ago as a registered nurse, during which she assisted doctors during OT surgeries and procedures, as well as diagnostic and therapeutic assessments of patients. She is also a certified ACP facilitator (PPC).
Extremely adaptive, Sister Anna has the innate ability to galvanise co-workers and encourage patients. Her previous role as a senior nurse manager in clinical quality and governance, allowed her to systematise clinical standards amongst more than 23 GP clinics.
