NEPHROLOGY SERVICE PROVIDER OF THE YEAR IN ASIA PACIFIC

PRINCE COURT MEDICAL CENTRE
World-class excellence meets exclusive care at Prince Court ’ s Nephrology Centre of Excellence . A complete and holistic centre for kidney treatments , we are dedicated to ensuring that all patients receive an exclusive and personalised healthcare experience tailored to their individual needs .
At the heart of our dedicated team of nephrologists , vascular surgeons , nurses , and medical professionals is the desire to care and do good . This , paired with the best-in-class medical expertise , service , and technology , makes us best equipped to offer the entire spectrum of kidney-related services , ranging from general to rare , for both adults and little ones .
Every year we continue to work together to provide unparalleled expertise and care for our patients .
With our patients ’ comfort and well-being a top priority , Prince Court upgraded its haemodialysis facility to accommodate 21-bedded bays instead of the typical dialysis chairs to support our patients , many of whom suffer from long-term kidney disease or failure and require an average of three dialysis treatments per week .
This bold move earned us the accolade of being the first , and only , private hospital in Malaysia to make this change .
Not willing to rest on our laurels , we continue to lead the way and be pioneers in our field . Through the differentiation of techniques and our clinical approach , we created the
Varun Panjwani & Cindy Choe
Kidney Transplant Programme ten years ago . It has benefitted many , particularly those who require blood group incompatible ( ABOi ) kidney transplants .
The key to our success in establishing this programme continues to be the involvement and cooperation of multiple teams and departments at Prince Court , including the nephrologists who work in collaboration with their surgical and anaesthetic colleagues , as well as the laboratory team . So complicated is this process that , even today , ABOi transplants are still rarely done anywhere in the world .
Our team-based care also ensures that many of our patients have had successful and healthy pregnancies , despite having only one kidney . Another feather in our cap was the successful transplant for Malaysia ’ s oldest kidney donor , a 79-year old Sarawakian . Prince Court successfully completed its 100th kidney transplant in 2021 , and continues to push forward with more successful procedures in 2022 .
It is in our DNA to offer unparalleled nephrology treatment and care in Malaysia , by delivering excellent clinical outcomes and outstanding personalised care in a healing environment . This is due to the unwavering commitment of Prince Court ’ s teambased care , with everyone dedicated to pushing the envelope in employing ground-breaking techniques and procedures to better serve our community .
