Reluctant patient gets timely help


(From left) Azmir and his daughter, Siti Aznita, 35, listening as resident consultant general surgeon Dr H. Ranjit Singh and Dr Mohd Zaqrul brief them on the treatment. Also present are Lee (second from right) and MMC chief operating officer (operations and administration) Connie Lee.

RECENTLY-retired Azmir Aziz had been sick for over a month and needed immediate medical treatment but his fear of hospitals as well as worry over the cost, kept him away.

Mawar Medical Centre (MMC) and Tabung Kasih, a non-profit organisation which was set up two years ago to help poor patients, stepped in to allay both of Azmir’s fears.
