A HUGE inspiration of mine

Ola!

So, last weekend I had an appointment with a well-known orthopaedic surgeon, regarding to my spine. It was just a follow up check up and I had to do an X-ray. Don't worry, everything was fine.😊

I went to Thomson Hospital Kota Damansara since it is the nearest to my house. Actually, the original name was Tropicana Medical Centre but since it has changed after its rebranding ceremony in July due to a new shareholder. And me being me, I'm so lame because I just knew about it last weekend. *sighs*

To be honest, I was quite scared to see the doctor because I've had an experience of getting scolded by a doctor when I was little. She was mad because I was crying😂 And, until that, it affected me till now haha.

His own room

That scared-but-tryna-hide-that-scaredy-face of mine

So readers, here he is, the thoroughly business-like and methodical orthopaedic specialist that I met:

DATUK DR.JOSEPH

Here's a little bit of his biodata:

After about 10 minutes of waiting, finally a nurse came out from the doctor's room.

"Sofea Hanna, please come in"

I could admit, that was one of the scariest moments in my life.

Then, I took a deep breathe and came in.

The first impression of mine towards him was "Why does he looks so stern.."

I couldn't describe how fast was my heart beating. I sat on the chair provided, and just looked down.

My heart could probably beats faster than this😩

Then, he asked me how was my spine doing. He asked me a few questions and to my surprise, he even made some jokes that I could even burst into tears! No joke people!

His explanations about my spine was so clear and so understandable. The way how he explains it makes me feel like to be an orthopaedic specialist just like him! He is able to absorb people's pain an anxieties without losing focus and treats patients as a human being rather than a symptom. As a doctor, he is able to communicate well with his patients which create a good doctor-patient relationship and so make the patients stay in hospital more comfortable. Not to forget, his friendliness makes me feel to just let out what's on my mind!

All in all, I could say he is a really good doctor! Not the 2017 The Good Doctor American drama series where you have that handsome Shaun Murphy😍. Ayyy nope girlies. It feels like giving him The Best Doctor award ehehe. He deserves to achieve all the Medicine Award. For example, Albany Medical Center Prize, William Allan Award and APUA Leadership Award.

*Drum Rolls*

Datuk Dr. Joseph Yap Chong Kiat!

Here's a trophy from me to you:

I'm signing off now because my pizza is already waiting for me hehe. Bye!
