Billy Kwandinata

I thank Jesus Christ for leading me to Mount Miriam Hospital for the treatment of my tongue cancer. There, I met Dr. Rakesh Raman—who was skilled, meticulous, and attentive throughout my examinations and treatment—as well as nurses, customer service representatives, staff, and support team who cared for me like family, constantly offering strength and prayers as I underwent chemotherapy and radiation, which left my body extremely weak. Ultimately, I recovered thanks to the appropriate treatment and medication I received.
