I was admitted to TDMC on 18th July 2025 due to appendicitis. The emergency team was very professional, and Dr. Hafizzuddin diagnosed me with appendicitis. I was then admitted to the general ward under the care of Dato’ Fahmi. Dato’ Fahmi performed my surgery successfully. He was calm, confident, and reassuring throughout the entire process. His clear explanation and genuine concern made me feel safe and well taken care of. I am truly grateful to have been under his care. A big shoutout to the OT (Operating Theatre) team as well — your efficiency, teamwork, and calm handling during the surgery made all the difference. Thank you for playing such a crucial role behind the scenes and ensuring everything went smoothly. Without all of you, the operation wouldn’t have been possible! A heartfelt thank you to all the nurses and PCAs in the general ward. Your kindness, patience, and attentiveness truly made my recovery journey much easier and more comfortable. I deeply appreciate how you went above and beyond to support me during my most vulnerable moments. Special thanks to Dr. Raja (Anaesthetist) for consistently reviewing my condition after the operation and ensuring my recovery was progressing well. Your follow-up care truly made me feel safe and supported. Deepest thanks to Dr. Wong and Dr. Hafiz for always checking on my condition in the ward, especially during the nights and whenever I needed help. Your dedication, warmth, and presence truly meant a lot to me.
