Restoring Movement, Restoring Life: DSH Orthopaedics Recognised Among Asia’s Top Hospitals

Movement is life. It is the stride of a marathon runner, the embrace of a grandparent, and the first confident step of a patient regaining independence. At Damansara Specialist Hospital (DSH), our Orthopaedic services bring together surgeons, nurses, and therapists who work closely to heal, support, and empower patients. Our approach is simple: every patient deserves a life without the limits of pain.

Newsweek, in collaboration with Statista, has announced Asia’s Top Private Hospitals & Clinics 2026. DSH is proud to be recognised among the Top Orthopaedic Hospitals in Asia, achieving: Hip Replacement Surgery – 13th, Shoulder Surgery – 16th, and Knee Surgery – 26th. Rankings were based on professional reputation (85%), accreditations (10%), and patient-reported outcomes (5%). This recognition reflects the skill, consistency, and care of our Orthopaedic team.

Our strength comes from our people. DSH Orthopaedics unites subspecialists in sports injuries, trauma, spine, joint reconstruction, hand and microsurgery, and musculoskeletal imaging. Our consultants – Dr Rozman Md Idrus, Dr Johan Ahmad, Dr Abdul Malik Mohamed Hussein, Dr Robert Penafort, Dr Lee Kent Hui, Dr Sim Chaw Shian, Dr Harmony Tan, and Dr Naveen Rajadurai – provide collaborative care across all aspects of treatment.

Precision guides every step of our practice. Our robotic-assisted total and partial knee replacements support patients with complex arthritis. The system allows patient-specific surgical planning and guides implant alignment while protecting soft tissue. In 2025, following specialised training, our team performed several robotic procedures with low post-operative pain, early recovery within 24 hours, and zero surgical site infections.

Rehabilitation has also been strengthened. Inpatient rehab allows early mobilisation during hospitalisation, while outpatient services provide continued therapy. Dr Harmony Tan joined to provide advanced hand and microsurgical care, enabling precise interventions that help patients recover faster and achieve better outcomes.

High-quality diagnostics are essential. Our MRI and CT technology supports early detection, careful planning, and post-operative monitoring. Through the Mayo Clinic Care Network, we bring evidence-based joint and spine care locally, with direct consultation for complex cases.

Our care involves multiple teams, including endocrinology, cardiology, anaesthesia, infectious disease, radiology, and rehabilitation, to support every aspect of recovery.

Movement restores dignity and independence. Encik Nazree, a patient of Dr Rozman Md Idrus, said, “Dr Rozman is highly professional and thorough. I’ve had several procedures here, from ACL to spine surgery, and now meniscus repair. The team at DSH has always been consistent in their care and guidance.” Finn Van Den Heuvel, returning after six years to thank Dr Johan and the nurses, reflected, “The recovery was long, but the support made all the difference. Dr Johan, the nurses, and the physiotherapists guided every step and made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the journey.”

Built on experience, consistency, and personalised care, DSH Orthopaedics continues to help patients regain mobility, independence, and confidence—Trusted for Generations. For more information or to consult our specialists, contact +603-7718 1000 or visit kpjhealth.com.my/damansara.
