Real life action hero: Doctor, Harley Rider and all round Adrenaline Junkie.

Meet Dr. Ravin Nair, Emergency Resident Physician at Gleneagles Hospital, Singapore.

In the middle of the night, when most of Singapore sleeps, Dr. Ravin Nair is often wide awake, working under bright lights, making life-saving decisions in the ER, and doing it all with an energy most people reserve for weekends.

“I didn’t grow up dreaming of becoming a doctor,” he says.

“It wasn’t ambition. I just kept doing well in school, applied for medicine, got a scholarship… and here I am.”

But while the path may have started by chance, Ravin has embraced it fully. He thrives in the chaos of emergency care, not just managing pressure but feeding off it.

“I’m an adrenaline junkie,” he laughs. “The ER is fast, intense, and unpredictable. That’s exactly how I like it.”

When he's not treating patients, Ravin chases that same thrill on two wheels—touring the world on his Harley. From hospital shifts to high-altitude highways, he lives fast, but with intention.

Yet despite his pace, he’s clear-eyed about one thing: health starts long before the emergency room.

“I’ve seen it over and over—people want to live healthier, but resources get in the way. Cost and access are the biggest hurdles. That’s the real barrier.”

To him, food, exercise, and medicine are all part of the same equation.

“You can’t separate them. You need all three.”

Which is why, when freshpodsg landed at Gleneagles Hospital, his reaction was immediate:

“Hallelujah! Having healthy, convenient meals right here makes a real difference—for staff, and for patients too.”

It’s more than a meal. It’s part of a preventive ecosystem—one that supports health where it matters most: on the ground, in the moments between emergencies.

Dr. Ravin’s parting words are simple but timeless:

“Prevention is better than cure—in every aspect.”

And for someone who sees what happens when prevention is too late, that advice carries weight.
