About Dr. Singh
Harbir Singh, MD, MBA, FACEP
Dr. Harbir Singh is a board certified emergency physician as well as an entrepreneur and healthcare executive. He is passionate about his work as a doctor and is grateful that he is able to make a difference in his patients’ lives. Additionally, he is committed to improving our healthcare system by creating and implementing innovative solutions that benefit patients and the medical community, both locally and nationally.
Kyle ER & Hospital
Dr. Singh serves as the CEO of Kyle ER & Hospital, a neighborhood hospital 20 miles south of Austin, TX, that provides high quality, concierge hospital care at a lower cost.
As a physician-owned facility, Kyle ER & Hospital is committed to giving the best care to its patients, free from the corporate hurdles of large hospitals. It is a source of pride that patients are not only seen as quickly as possible, but that they spend, on average, at least twice as long with their physician than in other hospitals, enabling physicians to listen carefully to patients’ concerns and conduct thorough physical exams.
Singh earned a medical degree at Penn State University and an MBA from the University of Tennessee.
Cynergi Health Partners
When Dr. Singh is not working at Kyle ER & Hospital, he is occupied with Cynergi Health Partners, a company that he co-founded in 2018.
For its community hospital clients, Cynergi Health pioneered something never before seen in addiction treatment: it coupled a suite of virtual reality experiences —which can reduce apprehension and panic during withdrawal—with a traditional medication-assisted detox program for patients suffering from substance abuse. While we’ve used the latter for many years, the VR component adds soothing imagery and sounds and leverages proven psychological techniques to make the process easier.
Patients suffering from several types of addiction, including addiction to alcohol, opiates and benzodiazepines (benzos), now can have new hope in their treatment for addiction.
In his abundant free time…
In his free time, Dr. Singh loves working out and exotic travel. He has been to Antarctica on several occasions as an expedition physician and even got married there!
Giving back to the community and spirituality are also very important to Dr. Singh. He is an avid practitioner of Vipassana Meditation as taught by S.N. Goenka and meditates on a daily basis. This practice has been extremely valuable for him, and he co-founded the Central Texas Vipassana Association in 2015 to improve access to the meditation community in Austin, TX. He hopes he can continue giving back and looks forward to helping open a new meditation center in Houston.
