KPJ Damansara Specialist Hospital (DSH) is conveniently located in an upscale area of Kuala Lumpur that has become a center for expatriates and young urban executives. The 158-bed hospital offers accredited, state-of-the-art treatments in first-rate facilities. International patients most commonly seek this hospital’s services in cardiology, bariatric surgery, oncology, in vitro fertilization, and health screening.

DSH is one of five KPJ hospitals in Malaysia accredited to serve international health travelers and holds accreditations in Malaysia, including the government’s Ministry of Health and endorsements by the Malaysian Society for Quality in Health (MSQH) as well as the Association of Private Hospitals of Malaysia (APHM). The hospital has a diversified array of centers of excellence focusing on severe obesity, oncology, health promotion and wellness, neurosurgery, orthopedics and joint replacement, ophthalmology, and cardiac medicine. To date KPJ Damansara has treated more than 138,429 inpatients and 1,818,580 outpatients.

KPJ Damansara offers extensive diagnostic and therapeutic resources, such as endoscopic suites, hemodialysis centers, cardiac catheterization, and magnetic resonance imaging facilities. DSH medical specialists hold international qualifications and are supported by well-trained paramedical staff. Holistic care-based home nursing services also are available for patients recently discharged and who are staying within a 10-kilometer (six-mile) radius of the hospital. The accident, emergency, and outpatient services operate 24/7 and are manned by a medical officer and teams of experienced nurses and aides.

In 2006, KPJ Damansara opened an obesity specialty center, the first of its kind in Malaysia and Southeast Asia, dedicated to helping seriously obese patients through surgical and nonsurgical procedures.

The hospital's Premier Screening and Wellness Center offers a comprehensive array of health assessment packages that can be tailored to meet individual needs for protecting, promoting, and maintaining overall health and well-being. Health assessment packages include basic and premier general executive screenings as well as Premier Well Man and Well Woman Heart Screening packages, all conducted by professional wellness experts who ensure treatment is provided in a setting of confidence, personalized attention, and privacy.

Now I feel more energetic, more alert and very much lighter. I am very happy with my decision to overcome obesity, and I am looking forward to the next phase of my life, which I hope will be much better. ―Devan, Malaysia
