I’d just like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the team at Columbia Asia Batu Kawan, especially our O&G specialist, Dr. Inbajoothi, Anesthesiologist Dr. Prakash, and Pediatrician Dr. Lavinya, who made my wife’s delivery experience as smooth and comfortable as possible. We really appreciate how reassuring and attentive they were throughout the whole process. A special thank you as well to all the nurses and staff who took such good care of both my wife and our newborn baby. We truly appreciate all the care, support, and kindness shown to us throughout our stay.

Thanking Dr Lavinya (Paeds Consultant) enough for the exceptional care she provided to my son during his admission. As a first-time mother, I was naturally anxious and overwhelmed, but from the very beginning, she made us feel reassured and supported. She is incredibly calm, patient, and compassionate. No matter how many questions we asked, she always took the time to answer them thoroughly and never made us feel rushed. Her explanations were clear, reassuring, and helped us understand every step of our son’s treatment. What truly stood out was her genuine kindness and dedication. She treated not only our son with excellent medical care but also cared for us as worried parents. Her professionalism, knowledge, and warm approach gave us confidence during one of the most frightening moments of our lives. Highly recommending her to any parent looking for a skilled, compassionate, and truly outstanding pediatrician. All staffs of the hospital are very polite and genuine too, shoutout to the nursery department who cared for my son well too.

Special thanks to the pediatrician, Dr. Lavinya, who was very knowledgeable, professional, and patient in explaining our baby's condition. She helped ease our worries as parents by providing clear communication and thoroughly explaining the treatment plan for our baby. We would also like to thank the nurses for being helpful, caring, and gentle with both our baby and our family throughout the stay. Additionally, the hospital meals were good, and we appreciated the staff's assistance in heating the food when needed. We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to the after-sales team, especially Ms. Shafina, for following up with us after our visit.
