A passionate public health champion for vulnerable low-wage migrant workers, Dr. Benjamin Kuan first served as a medical volunteer before he joined HealthServe on 1 March 2020.

He hit the ground running at the peak of COVID-19 as Head of Medical Services, leading HealthServe’s frontline teams through an unprecedented crisis.

Ben is a strong believer of public-private-people-philanthropy (4P) partnerships for sustainable development to plug societal gaps.

A family physician by training and at heart, he holds an MBA from the joint UCLA-NUS GEMBA programme and Graduate Diploma in Family Medicine from NUS.

Prior to joining the social services sector, Ben spent a decade of his professional life with a health technology and medical clinic group that provides managed care and workplace health solutions for ecosystem players.

Outside of work, he is an avid motorcyclist dreaming of riding cross-border someday for a charitable cause. And like many other HealthServe colleagues, Ben loves cats and motorcycles — but not cats on motorcycles.

Alvin joined HealthServe on 25 July 2022.

Prior to his transition into the social services sector, Alvin spent 26 years in the airline, hospitality, healthcare and food & beverage industry.

Alvin holds a Bachelor’s degree in Economics and Mathematics from Boston University. 

In his free time, Alvin enjoys playing golf and going for morning swims.
