About Me

I was born a Selangorian. My dad was a Police Officer and my mum a housekeeper. I have 4 successful siblings. I am currently residing in Ipoh for the past 17 years. I married a Perakian in 1997. I have 2 beautiful kids, a girl and a boy…both teenagers now. My daughter is following my footsteps, venturing into the world of Medicine and my son following his mothers footsteps venturing into the world of Law and Order.

I have been practicing medicine since 1995, almost 26 years now. In Otorhinolaryngology, I have clocked in 19 years, how time flies. I have been practicing in both worlds, public and private. My stepped into private practice as early as 2008, opened my first clinic in PCSH, then Pantai and last year in Fatimah Hospital. In my private practice, I concentrate a lot on sinusitis, allergies and nasal tumors. My love is Endoscopic Sinus Surgery.

I subspecialise in Rhinology, thats the nose, and that was extra 3years of my life but it was worth the effort. I currently train future rhinologist at HRPB Ipoh and since 2010, ten candidates have successfully finished their training. I also have Masters students under my supervision so that’s a lot of teaching, research and publication under my preview.

Lastly but not the least, my favourite football team is Manchester United.
