Highly recommend Prof. Dato’ Dr. Kwan Mun Keong, Prof. Dr. Mohd Shahnaz Hassan, Dr. Chiu, and the incredible team at UMSC. The team handled the entire pre-op preparation flawlessly, making us feel completely informed and reassured during a very anxious time. My daughter’s scoliosis surgery was executed with world-class precision, speed, and exceptional anesthesia management. Her spine and posture are now beautifully balanced and aligned. The post-op ward care has also been incredibly attentive. We are profoundly grateful to have chosen this absolute best team for our daughter’s future!

i salute d most dedicated doctors i hv ever met in d country : Prof Kwan, Prof Chiu + Prof Shanaz who worked as a team for my scheduled lumbar surgery in mid Dec 18. however a new MRI revealed tat i actually require a major surgery lasting 4-6 hrs. d concensus arrived at by d team was that i wld be instead given an epidural steroid injection for d timr being by d very competent Prof Shanaz. when he administeted it i felt that it was only an ant bite ! while executing d whole procedure, Prof Shanaz made sure i was comfortable n he spoke in d most calming voice telling what he was going to do next. that put me at ease n filled me wif confidence that it wld be successfully done. of course d pre + post operation manual prepared for patients was most enlightening. inside it are explanations of what to do b4 n aft ur specific surgery. an immensely useful guide for patients. Prof Kwan exudes and inpires confidence in me as to what steps r appropriate for my lumbar's deteriorated condition. he reminds me of d shepherd who knows what to do his 'lost' sheep. Prof Chiu too takes his time to explain patiently n clearly to me + my husband regarding my case.he set up a WhatsApp group chat tat incld d whole team, Prof Kwan's PA Sr Chua, my husband n even my daughter who's far away. meanwhile i hv posed some questions n i alws get prompt replies from d doctors. that leads me to alws wonder : how do these super doctors manage it, wif clinic reviews, surgeries n explanations to patients, ward rounds.. now i m into d 12th day of d steroid jab + i m still doing fine wif minimal nerve pain in my legs n pelvis. these doctors r extremely dedicated to their profession , ethical n full of empathy. they r rare gems in d world of medicine in our country!

My mum was referred to Prof Kwan Mun Leong for her back pain where she has suffered for the last 8 years. We have seen many doctors and Professors on her case for multiple opinions and finally decided to get the surgery done by Prof Kwan in UMSC. We came to this hospital because of him. We were ulterly impressed by our first visit where we were briefed on the diagnosis and treatment in documents, clearly drawn out to us in picture and words. We went home with very clear in terms of how the surgery will be carried out, how much would it cost as well as how to take care before and after the surgery. My mum’s had to go for TLIFT treatment and the surgery was performed by Prof Kwan and Prof Chiu, partner by GA Doctor Shahnaz. 3 of them visited my mum 2 times before going into surgery explaining to us again how the procedures would be done, until we were very clear. During the procedures, we get WhatsApp updates from the team on how the surgery went without us having to worry so much. I am amazed to see my mum able to stand up and walk on the next day of the surgery. All 3 doctors continue to visit my mum and reassure everyone of us in terms of how the surgery went as well as reminding us to perform the care instructions post surgery. We really thank Prof Kwan, Prof Chiu and Dr Shahnaz on the excellent care and services. We are able to get in touch with them through WhatsApp should we have any worries or questions arise even after discharge. Please keep up the great work as this is how you are different from others and we will continue to refer those who needed help to UMSC Orthopaedic Surgery team.

I had a successful operation on L4/5 n L5/S1 of my back at UMSC 2 weeks ago . The operation was jointly carried out by Prof Kwan n Prof Chiu with the GA doctor Prof Shanaz .
