As the new year begins and I thought of the list of people whom have touched our lives, I want to give a shout out to Professor Yazid at USMC. I was once a desperate mother who sought counsel from all the ‘renowned’ specialists in town but sadly no one could accurately diagnosed my then 7 year old son’s and my condition- we are MODYs which constitutes only 1-2% of the diabetic population. Understandably we were treated in all ways that were unhelpful, caused us more stress and anxiety, not to mention that we wasted so much time and money along the way! Finally we chanced upon Prof Yazid via recommendation by another doctor and only Prof was at the cutting edge of it all! He is truly knowledgeable and with his curiosity to learn and given his breadth and depth of experience, we finally found comfort and sage advice from Prof on how to deal with our condition. We have been under his care since. Prof Yazid is kind and patient and in my humble opinion, the Professors at USMC are driven by their patients’ interests first and foremost. This is but a testament to Professor Yazid’s extremely packed schedule!

My daughter Ilyana was under the care of Dr. Muhammad Yazid Jalaludin at UM Specialist Center Hospital in Malaysia. Even after moving to Canada, we continue to consult with him for any concerns regarding her health and ongoing treatment here. My daughter Ilyana was diagnosed with Growth Hormone Deficiency under Dr. Yazid's expert diagnosis. Prior to consulting with him, we had visited numerous hospitals and specialists in Malaysia but received neither the level of service every patient deserves nor a clear diagnosis. We spent thousands on her health without any conclusive answers. However, both Dr. Yazid and UM Specialist Center provided us with exceptional care. Dr. Yazid’s expertise and dedication are unparalleled. He stands out as a true gem. His attentive care, attention to detail, and proactive, thorough approach transformed our experience from frustrating and costly to comforting and effective. Despite his busy schedule and jam-packed appointments, he always gives proper time to every patient, and we never felt rushed or overlooked. UM Specialist Center is an excellent healthcare facility. During our time in Malaysia, we had an excellent experience with the hospital and an unforgettable one with Dr. Yazid. We highly recommend UM Specialist Center and Dr. Yazid for their outstanding services. Thank you, Dr. Yazid and UM Specialist Center, for your exceptional care and support!
