Dr Jack Newman's lecture week in Singapore was well–attended by doctors and nurses, who found his sessions informative, very practical, and wide-ranging in subject. The main Seminar for healthcare professionals, and the 7 lectures delivered at different restructured and private hospitals were attended by 488 doctors, 712 nurses, 43 allied health professionals, and 17 medical students. At the Healthcare Professionals’ Seminar, Dr Chong Yap Seng delivered a helpful lecture on “Long-term Benefits of Breastfeeding”. The Public Forum was attended by 234 participants who appreciated both Dr Newman’s sessions, as well as Mrs Patricia Koh’s on “Building Your Child’s Confidence.” Dr Newman’s greatest impact was to help his audience “see” when breastfeeding is proceeding as it should. His video clips were very effective in helping mothers and healthcare professionals alike to understand the proper feeding process clearly.
