A doctor, a miracle, a life renewed


Datuk Dr Anuar Masduki

TWELVE years ago, I found myself on an operating table in a hospital in Subang Jaya, Selangor, my life hanging by a thread. My heart – stubborn, clogged, and on the brink of failure – needed saving. A bypass was too risky, a gamble with time I didn’t have. The only way forward was three stents, meticulously placed by the hands of a man who had done this dance with death countless times before.

That man was Datuk Dr Anuar Masduki, a name synonymous with excellence in Malaysia’s medical world. He was the kind of doctor who carried an air of quiet confidence – unshaken, precise, and resolute. There was no fuss, no theatrics. Just a man and his skill, threading through my blockages with the calm certainty of someone who had made a lifetime of saving hearts.
