"Dr. Halimah has been an excellent pediatrician for my son. She is attentive, patient, and always takes the time to explain things clearly, which gives us great confidence and peace of mind as parents. She genuinely cares about my son’s well-being and development, remembers details from previous visits, and never makes us feel rushed. Her calm and reassuring approach makes every visit comfortable. I would also like to commend her assistant, who is friendly, caring, and very efficient. She helps make each visit smooth and pleasant from start to finish. We are truly grateful to have Dr. Halimah and her team caring for our son, and I highly recommend her to any parent looking for a pediatrician who truly cares."

Overral my experince with hospital room service was excellent, cleanliness, professionalism and thoughtful care truly made a different during my stay. I am grateful to entire team for their dedication & services."

"From Monday night, I stayed at this KPJ Tawakkal hospital in Ward 833-2, I’m very impressed with the professionalism and care shown by all the staff. Everyone was so helpful, kind, and attentive throughout my stay. Dr Hisham and nurses explained everything clearly and made me feel comfortable and well taken care of. The environment was clean and well-managed, and I truly appreciate the excellent service provided. I was also so impressed with beautiful KL view from my ward, both in the morning and at night — it really made my recovery feel more peaceful and pleasant. Their healthy meals were also so satisfying and delicious, which made my stay even better. Thank you for your outstanding care and dedication!"

"Salam ~ im writing this to express my heartfelt gratitude and to formally commend the exceptional service I received during my recent stays at your hospital.A HUGE THANKS to the KPJ Tawakkal Specialist staff for taking such good care of me. After being in Carnation Ward last year and the HDU and Lavender Ward this year, Im amazed by how fast and efficient the HDU team is. Excellent service! Although I had different staff helping me this year, Im grateful to be under the care of the same wonderful doctors. Thank you Dr. Patricia, Dr. Arif, Dr. Ismaliza, Dr. Tengku, and Dr. Shahrina for helping me get well, and to the maternity staff Lavender Ward specially and Carnation for being so thoughtful. The doctors were great at explaining my treatment and worked so hard for my recovery. The facilities are top-notch and the atmosphere is very comfortable. Also, a shoutout to Mr. Arif and Mr. Faiz from (Emergency Department) for their skill and efficiency in performing blood draws. They have been consistently excellent from last year until now. Thank you, KPJ Tawakkal Specialist for the amazing care. Best regards! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟"

"My mother Warded at Carnation Surgical Ward. We had such a comforting experience here, and I’m truly grateful for the amazing hospitality. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcomed, seen, and cared for. Every nurse and support staff member treated me with genuine kindness and patience. What stood out the most was how friendly and helpful everyone was. They didn’t just do their job — they took the time to listen, explain, and reassure. In moments when you feel vulnerable, that kind of compassion makes all the difference. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
