      I was admitted to the Surgical ward on 3rd floor of Block B. Thank you to all the doctors, nurses and attendants at the male surgical ward for providing absolutely excellent care during my stay. Special thanks to Dr. Shankar Gunarasa, colorectal surgeon for everything. He was professional, he provided personalized care for me and was compassionate in doing his job. Also a big thank you for the wound care team, especially Neo who has been encouraging me during my recovery period. Will definitely visit here again if it's necessary again. The hospital itself has been upgraded with a new multi storey car park, a eatery zone at the car park block (block D) and other modernized facilities. Staff here are dedicated and friendly, something important if you're seeking for care.

      Exceptional Care and Compassion of Pantai Hospital Ayer Keroh Melaka I was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional service provided by the name Sharon👍⭐. From the moment I walked in, she greeted me with a warm smile and made me feel welcome. She handled my inquiries with professionalism & efficiency, ensuring that all my questions were answered promptly. What stood out the most was her empathetic nature. She went above & beyond to make sure I was comfortable & at ease during I was there. Her excellent communication skills & attention to detail were evident throughout our interaction👍⭐☺. Dr. Shankar & Dr. Rusdi was exceptional in explaining my diagnosis and treatment options. They took the time to answer all my questions and made sure I understood every step of the process. Their expertise & compassionate approach were truly reassuring👍⭐. I underwent a colonoscopy, & I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care provided by Dr. Shankar & the nursing team 👍⭐. The staff made me feel comfortable and well-informed about the procedure. I had a CT scan done & I want to express my gratitude for the outstanding care provided by the female nurse (didn’t get her name☹) She was incredibly professional & skilled, especially when it came to inserting the needle for the contrast dye. She explained each step of the process clearly, which helped alleviate my anxiety. The needle insertion was quick & almost painless, thanks to her expertise👍⭐ Overall, my experience at Pantai Hospital Ayer Keroh was outstanding! The dedication, professionalism, and compassion of the entire team made a significant difference in my treatment and recovery. I highly recommend Pantai Hospital Ayer Keroh to anyone in need of medical care! 👍⭐🙏☺

      Assalammualaikum, praise be to God, it was a good experience being admitted to Pantai Hospital. My case was managed by Dr. Shankar Gunarasa, a very good and humble doctor. The ward nurses who assisted me, Nur Alya Huwaina, Nur Arina, and all the nurses on ward C4, all provided excellent and friendly service. Thank you.
