This is not a marketing website.

This is a website that I designed and created to provide information on urological conditions with Malaysian context and perspective. It aims to support the day-to-day discussions that I have with my patients, and junior doctors.

There are guidelines on how Malaysian doctors should conduct themselves online. The guidance can be found here [refer rule 18, 19, and 20], and here.

Any health information provided in this website will adhere to the DISCERN Instrument, a validated tool for measuring the quality of written health information, and e-Health Code of Ethics.

I planned, wrote, and created this website's content, it is not AI-generated. The case discussions and operative videos have been anonymized to protect patient confidentiality.

In order to provide some credibility to what I write, my professional qualifications are outlined below:

I graduated from University of Malaya in 1999 and obtained Master of Surgery (General Surgery) from the National University of Malaysia in 2008. I went on to complete Board of Urology Malaysia Certification in 2012, and FRCS (Urol) (Glasg) from the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow in 2013. After which, I took up a fifteen-month fellowship in Pediatric Urology at the Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital.

Since my return to Malaysia, I have been working as Consultant Urologist and Pediatric Urologist with the Ministry of Health Malaysia since 2015, and as a sessional Consultant Urologist in the private health care sector since 2018.

My curriculum vitae is available in other professional websites and an updated version is below.
