APSH: Where precision cancer care meets compassion

For many Bangladeshi patients, a cancer diagnosis often means searching for more than just treatment. They look for advanced expertise, a personalised approach and a care team that truly understands their journey.

At Ampang Puteri Specialist Hospital (APSH) in Malaysia, Consultant Clinical Oncologist Dr Azura Deniel delivers advanced cancer treatment with a personal approach that blends medical expertise with genuine care and support.

At APSH in Malaysia, Dr Azura Deniel brings all these elements together. Known for her leadership in precision oncology, she focuses on tailoring treatment plans to each patient’s unique cancer profile. This approach combines advanced therapies, such as targeted treatment and immunotherapy with personalised care that addresses both medical and emotional needs.

“We are no longer treating cancer as a one-size-fits-all disease,” says Dr Azura.
“Today, we can customise therapy to attack specific mutations. This means more effective results with less harm to healthy cells.”

With a deep commitment to patient-centred care, Dr Azuraguides her patients through every step of their treatment, providing not only clinical expertise but also hope and support during one of life’s most challenging journeys.

For Dr Azura Deniel, cancer care goes beyond clinical treatment. She takes the time to understand each patient’s fears, support system and life goals. This ensures that every treatment plan is not only medically sound but also meaningful to the person behind the diagnosis.

This personalised approach is supported by APSH’s International Patient Centre (IPC), which provides dedicated assistance to patients who travel from abroad. The IPC team helps families with travel arrangements, visa support, accommodation and follow-up care.

One of Dr Azura’s most memorable cases is Nadia, a 42-year-old mother of three from Johor who was diagnosed with Stage 3 HER2-positive breast cancer. Under Dr Azura’s care, Nadia followed a structured treatment plan that combined chemotherapy, HER2-targeted therapy and radiation therapy.

Beyond clinical treatment, Dr Azura ensured that Nadia received psychosocial support and counselling to help her cope with the emotional impact of her diagnosis. The care Nadia received addressed both her medical condition and her emotional well-being.

Today, Nadia is in remission. She has returned to work, remains active in her community and now advocates for early cancer screening among women.

As part of KPJ Healthcare’s integrated health system, APSH combines advanced clinical care with research-led practice, continuous learning and patient-centred innovation.

At APSH, stories like Nadia’s are made possible by a commitment to both medical excellence and genuine human connection. For patients from Bangladesh and beyond, the hospital offers not only advanced treatments but also a supportive environment where every individual is seen, heard and cared for.
