I will upload my third YouTube video next week, stay tuned if you want to listen to me ‘berceloteh dalam Bahasa Melayu’. Hehe 🤪 Siapa yang complain my accent, I sekeh kepala.

That is torture, bukannya membantu. Kalau lepas bersalin, kenalah minum banyak air, especially if you’re breastfeeding, otherwise you’ll get dehydrated. Dan satu lagi, makan ayam tak akan membuat luka jahitan gatal ye. Selama saya jadi doktor and operate orang, tak pernah pulak saya tak bagi pesakit saya makan ayam. Kena makan healthy meals, fruits and veggies kena makan (nanti kena sembelit, lagi lah memudaratkan badan).

FYI 👩🏻‍⚕️ Perhaps @muhammadeizat could also add his opinion here.

Only just watched the first episode. My comment on the first scene in the OT? Realistically, it’s very quite rare to do an open appendicectomy nowadays, we normally do it laparoscopically (key-hole surgery), but maybe this patient has some other contraindications to laparoscopic surgery that we don’t know about. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Only just started watching @ResidentFOX! My consultant always tell me, treat your patients like you treat your own parents and siblings, you always want the best for your own patients like they’re your families. Have that attitude in you, and you will do your best everyday!

Thank you @501Awani, however, I have already advised the media to give factual information based on scientific evidence that I provided. Do not pick and choose certain tweets and words. Why did you have to relate my explanation to a certain celebrity? I did not mention anything about that.

Para doktor yang ingin menyebarkan ilmu dan membantu masyarakat dikecam, dihina, dicerca. Para jurujual/founder pulak disanjung dan dipuji, apa dah nak jadi dengan sesetengah orang kita ni? Media pulak please lah, kalau menulis tolong highlight fakta yang ditulis panjang2 tu together with the research evidence, bukan highlight sentence untuk jadi controversy.

Thank you @majalahremajaMY for the article, tapi tulis tak habislah...you need to explain the reason why durian belanda is not a cure for cancer. Kena explain dekat diorang ni supaya faham betul-betul apa maksud lab/animal studies and apa maksud clinal trials (human studies). facebook.com/49858780901/po…

Malaysians’ new obsessions : Durian belanda can cure cancer. No! It CANNOT cure cancer. Based on in-vitro and animal studies, there are some positive results to show that it can kill cancer cells. However, there are also studies to show that ‘durian belanda’ could also cause neurotoxicity and it could lead to neurodegenerative disorder like Parkinson’s disease.

Personally, I don’t think disclipnary action should be taken against Dr Ilyani. We can agree to disagree, however, lessons should be learnt. I would like to increase awareness and lets us remind ourselves (doctors) that as healthcare professionals, we should remain neutral and should not make a statement against any community, race, religion, gender etc publicly and may we all treat our patients with love and compassion

As a third year medical student, I did a rotation in gastrointestinal firm, I joined the ward round and introduced myself to the Gastro Consultant.

Gastro Consultant: What did you say? Your name is Melaena????
Me: 😭😭😭😭😭😭

(Warning: only medics can understand this joke) Orang putih tak pernah dengar nama Amalina 🤣🤣🤣🤣

For educational purposes. Interesting read - if you want to look at it from a different perspective. Scientific and genetic explanation from Prof Imelda Balchin, Prof of Maternal Fetal Medicine. (1/4) 2/4

My take on this issue, similar to @psunster (Anaesthetic doctor) has described here. AS A DOCTOR, she shouldn’t be promoting discrimination on social media. Point 1 and 3, should be deleted. Let that be her personal opinion as a Muslim. She should use ‘as a Muslim’ instead of ‘as a doctor. Perhaps, she could have worded it better. First point, ‘As a doctor....’

Cara tegur dengan baik pun dah jadi issue buat puak-puak kat Twitter ni. Diorang ni nak apa sebenarnya? Dah takde issue, nak buat issue ke? If you write a tweet without any substance and bashing other people for no concrete reason (perhaps because you don’t like me? - I don’t know, or for brownie points on Twitter), perhaps you should reevaluate your life. My tweet is purely based on medical ethics and facts.

I’ve been tagged to this. I would like to be clear that as healthcare professional and a human being, I do not have prejudice against LGBTQ community, they’re my medical colleagues, they’re my best friends and they’re my patients, I treat everyone equally despite their beliefs and background. However, I also would like to be clear that you shouldn’t lie about your medical history as you might put the general population at risk, the rule is there not to discriminate but to protect the public.
