Just four doctors in clinic to see 300 patients a day? Health Ministry says aware of high load at Sg Buloh Hospital
SUNGAI BULOH, July 4 — The Health Ministry said it is aware of the high patient load at referral hospitals such as Sungai Buloh Hospital, following concerns that its doctors are overworked. After it was highlighted that the hospital's Orthopaedic Specialist Clinic had to see 300 patients on June 30, 2025, the ministry said the number had also included family members or caregivers. 'We understand the difficulties faced by patients and their families, especially concerning waiting times,' it posted on X yesterday. 'The Ministry of Health is aware of the high patient load at referral hospitals such as Sungai Buloh Hospital and continuous efforts are being made to improve patient flow.' The ministry said that its review showed that 158 patients attended the clinic that day. Dihantar olh seorang yang namanya tidak mahu dikenali.
