Dr Samintharaj Kumar: Good morning to you as well! Itâs a pleasure to speak with Prime. Now, onto your question. When I was 13 years old, I once happened to observe children with unique and curious head shapes at KK (Kandang Kerbau) Hospital while I was in the hospital lift. This incident fascinated me and sparked a deep interest in pursuing a career where I could help to treat such patients. Craniofacial surgery would become my initial focus in healthcare.
