Tim Oei
Tim Oei is a lawyer by training and profession. With more than 10 years of experience in the social service, community and healthcare sectors, he took the helm of National Kidney Foundation (NKF) in August 2017.
With a strong passion to support the underprivileged, Tim has devoted himself to making an impact through care transformation and integration in the renal landscape. He advocates for a holistic care approach by connecting NKF care services with other community care services to achieve a seamless and integrated approach to deliver the best clinical outcome for kidney patients, with the objectives of rehabilitating and reintegrating kidney patients back into the society to lead fulfilling and purposeful lives.
