Dermatology clinics in Tampines (2026)

We have verified three Tampines clinics that see skin concerns: DR+ Medical & Paincare Tampines, a GP clinic near Tampines West MRT listing dermatology services; Niks Maple Clinic, a family practice dermatology clinic opened in 1994; and The s.k.MED Clinic at Tampines 1, a medical aesthetic and skin care clinic. None is listed here as a specialist dermatology practice.

This page is general information, not medical advice. Speak to a registered doctor.

Which dermatology clinics in Tampines are on this list?

Three clinics are on this list so far: DR+ Medical & Paincare Tampines on Tampines Street 82, Niks Maple Clinic in Tampines, and The s.k.MED Clinic at Tampines 1. Every detail below comes from the clinics’ own websites, checked on 12 October 2026.

Why does this page list only three clinics?

We only list a clinic once we have checked its details on its own website or an official register. So far, three Tampines clinics meet that standard. Other clinics are being checked, and we will add them when their addresses, hours and doctors are confirmed.

For each clinic we look for the address, phone number, nearest MRT station, opening hours, the doctors who practise there and their qualifications. If a detail is missing from the clinic’s own site, we leave it out rather than copy it from a listings website. That is why Niks Maple Clinic appears without a street address, and why The s.k.MED Clinic appears without a unit number or opening hours: their own websites did not show these when we checked, so please call or check the clinic’s website before you go.

The list is ordered by distance where we have a verified address. We have not yet measured walking times from MRT stations, so the MRT exit shown for DR+ comes from the clinic’s own page and no walking time is given.

What do the three Tampines clinics offer?

DR+ Medical & Paincare Tampines is a GP clinic that lists dermatology services for acne, eczema and other skin conditions. Niks Maple Clinic describes itself as a family practice dermatology clinic. The s.k.MED Clinic describes itself as a medical aesthetic and skin care clinic.

DR+ also lists long-term illness care, health screening and minor surgery, so it may suit households who already use it as their family clinic. Niks Maple Clinic began as a GP clinic and changed its focus to skin over time. Its founding doctor, Dr Ong Fung Chin, holds an MBBS from NUS, a Diploma in Dermatology from King’s College, London, and a GDMH from NUS.

The s.k.MED Clinic has a different focus from the two family practice clinics. It presents itself as a medical aesthetic and skin care clinic, so if your concern is a medical skin condition such as eczema or a changing mole, ask when you book whether the doctor sees that kind of problem.

Which Tampines skin clinics open in the evening or at weekends?

Niks Maple Clinic’s timetable shows evening sessions from 6pm to 9pm on every weekday, plus Saturday and Sunday mornings. DR+ Medical & Paincare Tampines shows a Wednesday evening session and Saturday morning hours. The s.k.MED Clinic’s Tampines hours were not published on the page we checked.

A note on DR+: its website shows two versions of the opening hours. The hours in the table come from the visible page text, but other data on the same page suggests evening sessions on Monday and Thursday as well. Call the clinic before you go, especially if you plan an evening visit.

For Niks Maple Clinic, the hours come from the doctors’ timetable on the Niks Professional website. Individual doctors work different sessions, so if you want to see a particular doctor, check the timetable or ask when you book.

What is the difference between a GP who treats skin conditions and a dermatologist?

A GP is a family doctor who treats a wide range of problems, including common skin conditions such as acne and eczema. A dermatologist is a doctor accredited as a specialist in skin, hair and nail conditions. Many people see a GP first and are referred on if needed.

None of the clinics on this page is described here as a specialist dermatology practice. Dr Ong Fung Chin’s Diploma in Dermatology is a postgraduate qualification in skin medicine, but it is not the same as specialist accreditation, so we do not describe her or her clinic as a dermatologist. DR+ describes itself as a GP clinic that offers dermatology services.

Before any appointment, you can look up a doctor on the Singapore Medical Council’s public online register. It shows whether a doctor is registered to practise in Singapore and whether they are on the specialist register.

How do I choose a skin clinic in Tampines?

Choose a clinic that treats your type of problem, has a doctor whose qualifications you have checked, and opens at times you can manage. Ask about fees before your visit, and ask whether the doctor can refer you to a specialist if the problem needs one.

• Check the doctor: find their name on the clinic’s website and look them up on the Singapore Medical Council register.
• Match the clinic to the problem: everyday rashes, acne and eczema are often seen by a GP first, cosmetic skin concerns are handled by aesthetic clinics, and complex or long-running conditions may need a specialist.
• Ask about fees: none of the clinics on this page publishes consultation prices on the pages we checked, so prices are on enquiry. Ask what the consultation, any tests and any medicine will cost.
• Confirm the hours by phone: published hours can change, and DR+’s website shows two versions.
• Ask about follow-up: some skin conditions need several visits, so check whether you can see the same doctor each time.

What should I do if I need a specialist dermatologist?

Start with a GP, who can assess the problem and refer you to a specialist dermatologist if needed. We have not yet verified a specialist dermatology practice in Tampines itself, so a specialist appointment may mean travelling to another part of Singapore.

When you are referred, ask the GP whether the referral affects what you pay, and whether the specialist clinic is public or private. Fees and any subsidies depend on the clinic and on your circumstances, so confirm them with the specialist clinic when you book. We will add verified specialist options in and near Tampines to this page once we have checked them.

What should I bring to a first skin appointment?

Bring your NRIC or other identification, a list of the medicines and creams you use, any referral letter and earlier test results. Photos showing how a rash or mark has changed over time can help the doctor, especially if it comes and goes.

It also helps to note when the problem started, what seems to make it worse, and anything you have already tried. If you use make-up or skin products on the affected area, consider leaving them off on the day so the doctor can see the skin clearly, and bring the product names with you.
