With Mothers’ Day approaching, Singapore will also be commemorating its first-ever National Women's Checkup Week from 8 to 14 May 2023. Unfortunately, many mums overlook their personal health, according to recent research commissioned by Roche Diagnostics in Asia Pacific and conducted by Frontier View, with 1 in 5 women stating that they have delayed or avoided medical treatment one or several times due to a family obligation.

Make sure mum’s love doesn’t come at the cost of her health. Take your mum to get checked and prevent potential health issues by making an appointment for cancer screening via Singapore Cancer Society during National Women’s Checkup Week. Spend a happy and healthy Mothers’ Day this year ensuring your mum gets the care she needs.
