SUNWAY Medical Centre Penang (SMCP) stands as the latest addition to the Sunway Healthcare Group’s subsidiary, having officially begun its operations on Nov 11, 2022. Positioned as a prominent tertiary hospital in the Northern Region, SMCP has rapidly established itself as a comprehensive tertiary care facility, offering an extensive array of 50 medical specialties.
Supported by a team of highly skilled specialists and leveraging the latest advancements in healthcare technology, the centre is committed to delivering top-tier medical services to the public.
Serving as the Northern hub of Sunway Healthcare, the hospital further strengthens the group’s commitment to providing quality healthcare services across the region.
SMCP consistently pursues cutting-edge technology to enhance its healthcare services. Recently, the hospital marked a milestone by celebrating 50 successful robotic cases. This achievement underscores the hospital’s commitment to advancing patient care through innovative medical techniques.
Recognising the significance of a holistic approach in patient care, the hospital has taken a bold step to go beyond medical treatments.
This was demonstrated through the recent launch of a patient support group that aims to fill the void and ensure that the local community benefits from a comprehensive support system by addressing the broader spectrum of well-being.
By extending support beyond medical interventions, the hospital endeavours to accompany patients through every aspect of their recovery journey, fostering a sense of solidarity and empowerment within the community.
Moreover, the deployment of a stroke protocol at SMCP, aligned with global standards set by the ANGELs Initiative, aims to optimise the outcome during the critical “golden hour” period.
Concurrently, efforts to enhance emergency response include the implementation of the STEMI network and ambulances to incorporate 5G-enabled technology, transforming them into advanced Heart Attack Ambulances.
This enables real-time transmission of ECG reports to the emergency department, ensuring preparedness for immediate patient care.
The hospital also serves as a centralised hub offering not only medical services but also a seamless treatment experience.
Conveniently situated in the vibrant area of Seberang Jaya, it is surrounded by the Sunway Hotel, Sunway Mall and many eateries.
This location ensures that companions accompanying patients for treatment can feel at ease with various amenities readily available.
Moreover, SMCP goes a step further by providing complimentary shuttle services for international patients, facilitating transportation to and from the airport and enabling them to explore nearby attractions with ease.
SMCP strives to establish a personal touch with patients throughout their journey to foster a memorable recovery experience.
