My wife admitted on 21/3/2024 for caesarean delivery. Thanks prof Vallikkannu , my wife was safe to give birth our 4th baby (all is caesarean delivery) , thanks god 🙏. We feel confident with prof Vallik professional and expertise . We have great experience with prof Vali . Very knowledgeable and caring. Thanks to the Paediatrician Prof Choo Yau Mun as well. I highly recommend prof choo for paediatric care. We are very pleased with the care provided by Dr Choo YM. He is incredible responsible and caring towards patients. We have been taking all my 4 children to Prof Choo for past six years. Additionally, Prof Choo is highly accessible and accommodating. Scheduling appointments is always hassle-free, and he is prompt in responding to any urgent inquiries or concerns. For first day of admission, we are allocate at 3rd floor. There are only 1 or 2 nurse at one time . I really feel pitty to the nurse who is assign to 3rd floor. Surprisingly , the nurse is very well trained and experienced. For me they are like power women . Special thanks to the nurse (forget to ask her name) who working on night shift (19/3) because my wife is very suffering (plain after operation) on that day and the nurse took care of my wife throughout the night, and I am incredibly grateful for her dedication and compassion during the time. 2nd day , about 9pm the UMSC administration decided to change our room from 3rd floor to 5 floor. Thanks god , more nurse is service at this floor. My wife can sleep well on 2nd day because got more nurse can take care baby 😉. Overall all the nurse is very good . Their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail were evident in every aspect of care, from administering treatments with precision to communicating important information effectively. Thanks again to UMSC and all professor, doctor and nurses 😃👍UMSC will be the preferred hospital for my family. ☺️😌👩❤️👨👩👩👧👦

Our experience with Dr. Valli and the team was outstanding from the moment of our arrival until discharge. Dr. Valli handled our situation with great care and professionalism, making the entire process smooth and reassuring. I highly recommend her and will definitely refer friends to her as well. I also want to extend my gratitude to the nursing staff across all shifts, who were incredibly supportive throughout our stay. Thanks to Dr Choo for all the support and help .
