My sincere thanks to Dr. Mitra (Emergency) Dr. Manoharan (Surgeon) and all the staff nurses at Surgical Ward Level 5 for their excellent care and hospitality. Both doctors were professional, caring and took the time to explain everything clearly. The nurses were friendly, attentive and always ready to assist. Thank you for making my stay comfortable and for providing such outstanding service.

Had a surgery on short notice and despite this it was a very pleasant experience. Dr Manohar conducted a perfect surgery and Nurse Tharini took really good care of me. I can highly recommend this hospital.

I would like to thank the entire surgery team under Dr. Smitha and Dr. Manor, as well as the anesthetic doctor and everyone involved in the operation on the morning of 17th November (I was the first patient). Thank you for taking such good care of me throughout those long and critical six hours. I would also like to thank the entire Surgical Ward team who took care of me during my 6-day hospitalization, 16th - 21st Nov (Ward 512 ✌🏼) The nurses, clinic assistants, housekeeping team, and cleaners have all been amazing. The nurses, Thea, Nan, Nabihah, and a few more whose names I might have forgotten (blame the painkillers and meds!), you all truly rock. Even though I was in so much pain, I didn’t feel like I was in a hospital because of the way you cared. It felt comforting, almost like being at home. Even with a full ward, long shifts, and busy days, not once was I treated badly. Every interaction was kind, cheerful, and full of patience. Like I said on the day I was discharged, InsyaAllah kita jumpa lagi, but tanak as a patient, kita jumpa tengah shopping ke makan kat luar sihat2 k 🥰. May all of you be blessed with strength, patience, and happiness for the amazing work you do. Keep up the great work! What you do is truly a noble job, not everyone can handle the pressure, the responsibility, and still show this much compassion. Thank you for everything 💝

It’s totally convenient. Cozy environment. Been warded here twice under different doctors. Dr Manohar and Dr Lim Choo Gee. Knowledgeable, problem solving, the hospitality, the treatment, the surgery and even the nurses all very polite and helpful. Always receive a notification a day before my visitation and if let say I missed my appointment (which I always did), nurse will call to ask why and whether would I like to reschedule. Totally convenient.
