Here's our line up of speakers for this morning session,
(A) Dr Calvin FONES, Psychiatrist, PsyMed Consultants
Topic: Sexuality in longevity - Tips for Healthy Sexual Aging
Synopsis: Sexuality in older men involves physiological, psychological, and social changes that affect sexual health. Sexuality remains a fundamental part of well-being. Understanding and adapting to these changes helps maintain a healthy and fulfilling sexual life. A psychiatrist and sex therapist will share tips on how to preserve sexuality in later life.
(B) Dr James MOON, Principal Therapist and Mental Health GP, Private Space Medical
Topic: Midlife crisis for men - how to overcome it
Synopsis: Midlife often stirs questions of purpose, regret, and identity, leaving many men vulnerable to anxiety, disconnection, or burnout. This talk shows how Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) reframes “crisis” as opportunity—by unhooking from self-criticism, opening to emotions, clarifying values, and taking action—cultivating resilience, direction, and renewed vitality.
(C) Dr Christine YAU Wen Leng, Ophthalmologist, International Eye Cataract Retina Centre
Topic: Getting old - How to prevent eye problems and see clearly
Synopsis: As we get older, some vision changes we experience may be part of normal aging, but others may be early signs of eye disease. Vision is central to sustaining independence and social engagement. From lifestyle tips and preventive eye care to the latest advances in treatment, this talk will help participants gain clarity on how to maintain healthy eyes for as long as possible.
(D) Dr Christopher KONG, Gastroenterologist, Pro Digestive Gastroenterology
Topic: Colon cancer - Early detection and prevention saves lives (and $$$)
Synopsis: Did you know that in Singapore, colon cancer is not only the 2nd most common cancer, but also one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths? Join us for an enlightening talk on colon cancer, where we cover vital information about risk factors, early symptoms, and the advancements in prevention.
(E) Dr Sriram NARAYANAN, Vascular Surgeon, The Harley Street Heart and Vascular Centre
Topic: Slowing down your aging - How to have a stronger blood circulation
Synopsis: Your circulation is your lifeline. A healthy circulation is the key to keeping every organ at peak levels of performance. An unhealthy circulation is the first step towards ageing and disease. But circulation health can be restored, and ageing slowed down – as this talk will reveal.
