MD5 122A - Dr vena Great medical care and clean facilities! Overall, my experience here was quite good. Dr. Venay and the hospital staff were very friendly and provided great care throughout my stay. The facility itself is very clean and well-maintained. The only minor downside was some late-night noise from the TV after midnight in the shared room. While that's understandable given the nature of sharing a room, it would be even better if quiet hours after 12 AM could be managed a bit more strictly. Still, very pleased with the care and service overall!

Was staying at MD5, room117 - have a pleasant experience and great clinical team, especially to my surgeon Dr Vena. He talks very less, but really skillful. Had my most fearful haemorrhoidectomy with no pain! As it was just two days after Mothers Day, I was also give a small gift. Highly recommended. Thanks to the wonderful team.

MD6 Room 213A, admitted due to severe stomach pain. Been referred to Dr. Vena and he gave a detailed explanation on my blood test and CT scan results. CRP level was too high, Dr. Vena prescribed antibiotics and alhamdulillah the pain reduced. Thanks to all the staff (doctor and nurses at the emergency dept and at the ward) for providing an excellent care.
