Came here to check when I had yet another fever in a span of a week. Doctor Wong promptly identified what was wrong, and I was then admitted. Throughout being warded, nurses regularly came to tend to me, and Dr Lavanya regularly checked in on me and explained diagnosis and recovery process. In two days was discharged and feeling much better now. In my follow up appointment, Nurse Sya took my blood sample gently and efficiently. Thank you👍
