On behalf of the Board
of Directors of  ,
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your
interests in our website and our beloved Centre.
Let’s take a walk down memory lane...
The Specialists Centre, as it was called back then, was established
in 1975. Originally a modest 30-bed hospital staffed by humble
medical professionals, it was later renamed the
in 1992 to recognize and acknowledge the contributions and achievements
of my late father Datuk Dr. Loh Guan Lye in establishing this
Centre. A prominent General Practitioner during his time, my
late father left us to be with the Lord in 1992, leaving our
family and all Penangites with a legacy…the
The Centre is today the “Home Away From Home” for
our patients and over 500 committed health professionals. Our
Surgeons, Doctors, Nurses and Paramedics as well as Administration
and Support teams continue to provide high standards of medicine
to our patients.
With the inclusion of the new wing in 1995, the Centre has expanded
into a 250-bed hospital. One which is equally well-equipped
with up-to-date technology, such as the 1.5 Tesla Quantum Gradient
MRI and the Multislice Spiral CT.
The LohGuanLye College of Nursing was set up in June 1996 to
provide a career path for anyone with a passion for nursing.
The College also provides training for nurses from other hospitals.
The Centre, having entered the new millennium with grace (we
were blessed with delivering 3 millennium babies) looks set
to expand even further over the next few years. We’ve
recently acquired some land where we hope the foundations of
all our futures will soon be laid.
As we look forward to new challenges in this new millennium,
I would like to conclude by thanking all our partners, Consultants,
staff and everyone who has shared in my father’s vision
and who’ve stayed with us through the trying times and
laughed with us during the good times.
“Practice good medicine and you’ll receive good
rewards.”
Thank you my dear father for your vision and thank you dear
reader for your support.
