OWN YOUR STAGE
Lisa Gwee, CEO of G&L Surgical Clinic
Lisa’s role involves balancing business development and managing the daily operations of the clinic, which is a medical centre for gastrointestinal and laparoscopic surgery. While the pandemic has made that job so much harder, the 35-year-old is raring to achieve more.
She’s also the COO of a soon-to-be-launched medical solution digital application that gives doctors convenient access to provide treatment and follow-up care to their patients. Here, she takes the lead in meeting with medical practitioners from various medical fields and the development team in improving the product’s applications. Lisa’s goal for the app is to drive efficiency in scaling digital health solutions such as patient education and support programmes, symptom trackers and more for holistic patient care.
It’s clear that Lisa’s passion and drive for helping people in need are her main sources of motivation. In fact, during the Circuit Breaker, she led her company’s medical supply donation drive, and also participated in several charity initiatives throughout the past year to aid those affected by Covid-19. At work, she derives satisfaction from seeing patients on their road to recovery: “A patient returning to express gratitude spurs me and my team to continue doing the work we do.”
