SURGICAL MEDICAL PROVIDER OF THE YEAR IN ASIA PACIFIC

AVISENA SPECIALIST HOSPITAL ( ASH )
Elegantly designed in the heart of Shah Alam city centre , Avisena Specialist Hospital ( ASH ) is a nine-storey hospital building with 120 beds , 36 consultation suites , three operating theatres ( OT ), one interventional OT , one CT scan , one MRI machine , one rehabilitation and physiotherapy centre , and 30 consultants specialised in surgery .
The hospital provides multidisciplinary medical specialities such as Breast and Endocrine Surgery , Cardiology , Cardiothoracic , Endocrinology , Neurology , Neurosurgery , Nephrology , Urology , Colorectal Surgery , Bariatric Surgery , Ophthalmology , Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery , Dental Aesthetics , Dermatology , Orthopaedics , and Plastic Surgery . We are proud to offer these services in our hospital as some are not readily available in other facilities within our vicinity .
ASH is a clinician-led hospital that has evolved and expanded over the years , but our one overriding purpose remains — serving people . We accomplish this with our unwavering focus on delivering outstanding medical outcomes with compassionate and patient-centric care . Our key strength comes from the determination and commitment of our skilled medical associates , clinical staff , and non-clinical personnel whose unquestionable values and impeccable work ethic have made a lasting positive impact on our patients .
Presently , we have over 30 speciality services supported by more than 70 consultants . We envision a further expansion of our subspeciality ser-

vices through the recruitment of more subspecialist healthcare providers and clinical nurse specialists , as well as by acquiring the latest medical equipment to serve our patients .
We are also in the midst of expanding our current facilities by adding an additional 150 beds , 50 consultation clinics , six operating theatres inclusive of a state-of-the-art Hybrid Interventional OT , and 15 day-care beds . New developments to further our Oncology and Rehabilitation services are also currently in the pipeline .
We are also planning to develop an Ambulatory Care Centre ( ACC ) in our current premises that will be a onestop centre offering same day care to patients at the hospital . The ACC will consist of three endoscopy suites , one Cath lab , and three Daycare OTs with 20 observation beds and reclining chairs . We foresee the potential of our
ACC as the future of medicine as it will allow us to better cater to our patients ’ needs and lower the cost of healthcare whilst increasing the turnaround time for each procedure . Moreover , we also plan to strengthen our collaboration with TrueCare2U ( telehealth ) by offering medical treatments from the comfort of our patients ’ own homes and providing a complete home-based professional care , combined with smart technology .
Lastly , being crowned as the Surgical Medical Provider of the Year in the Asia-Pacific at the recent Global Health Asia-Pacific Awards 2022 is a recognition of our vision and mission that we strongly believe in . It is also an endorsement from our patients through their positive feedback and satisfaction level of care received from our healthcare professionals and employees . The hospital was chosen for this award based on its highly experienced and skilled surgeons from different specialities , efficient and compassionate nursing teams , and cutting-edge surgical facilities in a caring and professional environment .
Looking ahead , we endeavour to position ourselves well so we are equipped to meet the needs of our clients through strategic investments in advanced innovations , services , and facilities . As we devote ourselves to embracing change , we will keep upholding the values of customer centricity , people engagement , and continuous improvement to serve our esteemed patients who have placed their confidence in our care .
