FAMILY PHYSICIAN OF THE YEAR
DR TI LIAN GEH
After opening a successful chain of clinics in Malaysia , Dr Ti Lian Geh decided to extend his medical service internationally to expat patients from around the world as well as to local Cambodian patients in Phnom Penh . Due to the enormous patient satisfaction with his work , he received social media accolades . As health literacy in Cambodia was deficient , his health education proved useful . He wrote for the Khmer Times weekly . His book , “ The Art and Science of Healthy Living ”, was published in Phnom Penh and will soon be published in Malaysia .
He ’ s now known as the most outstanding family physician in Phnom Penh . Back home in Penang , the founder of H Healthcare Berhad , Bipul Nazir , spotted his capabilities and invited him , with the full support of the board , to be the chairman of his brainchild company , H Healthcare .
Dr Ti , now at retirement age , still diligently improves his skills and takes the lead in areas of his passion : cost containment , value care , patient safety , and the fundamental causes of certain diseases , namely food addiction and adverse lifestyles . His dedication was noticed by the Harvard Medical School where he was successfully enrolled into its ‘ Leadership in Medicine ’ programme with a scholarship award .
“ I am indeed very passionate about my work and responsibility as a family physician . There shall be no retirement for me but “ re-tie-ment ” – taking out the ‘ r ’ means no retreating from my responsibility to the people and nation . This award is not all for me . I could not get it without the support of my team , especially my mentor Mr Md Bipul Nazir who provided me the platform to excel . Thank you to all who have contributed towards this achievement .”
