S$5,000 1st place prize goes to Singapore woman suffering a severe dental condition
SINGAPORE, Sept. 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- DocDoc Pte. Ltd. (http://docdoc.sg), Asia's leading medical specialist appointment portal and popular Singapore lifestyle & beauty blogger, QiuQiu, announce the winner of the 'Tell Your Story' contest. And the winner is Joyce S. of Singapore (full name withheld at the request of the winner).
DocDoc's 'Tell Your Story' campaign utilized QiuQiu as a spokesmodel to help publicize DocDoc's medical tourism service in Korea. QiuQiu recently utilized the DocDoc healthcare platform and Appointment-By-Phone concierge service to set up a rhinoplasty and fat grafting surgery with a leading plastic surgeon in Seoul, South Korea. DocDoc sponsored QiuQiu's travel and accommodations.
The integrated contest was designed as an inspirational way to reward one deserving patient with S$5,000 to used for any type of medical procedure needed. To enter the contest, participants were asked to submit a short form on DocDoc's 'Tell Your Story' contest page (https://www.docdoc.sg/contest), including a brief description about how the prize might change the winner's life.
Joyce S. is a 29 year old woman living in Singapore who sent us an emotional story about her 15-year battle with bulimia and the degenerative effect this has had on her health, including nearly all of her teeth having to be removed and reconstructive dental work required for her to have a healthy smile again. Joyce is a brave young lady who has overcome diversity and is now seeking to improve her life! We hope the S$5,000 helps!
"I was overcome with emotion during the selection process," said QiuQiu. "It was hard to choose a winner because all of the stories were so heartfelt and authentic. Joyce S. was selected as the winner because we really felt the S$5,000 prize could change her life."
"We're excited to congratulate Joyce S. on winning the 'Tell Your Story' contest grand prize," said Max-F. Scheichenost, president of DocDoc. "Since our vision is to help transform lives, we had hoped that our contest for a cause would inspire everyday people to share their life experiences -- and it did. We look forward to seeing Joyce's new smile."
