Very recommended. Very Friendly doctor and Her assistantPosted on Google Rachel OTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been seeing Dr Shantene for the management of my psoriatic arthritis since March 2026, as I had been dealing with chronic joint pain for several years. From the very beginning, Dr Shantene has been very kind and caring. She’s also very thorough in explaining my lab/blood test results and mapping out the plan to manage my condition (eg. explaining timelines and options for medications). I greatly appreciate her empathetic personality, as dealing with this disease has been challenging. I’m seeing improvements in my joint pain and overall quality of life thanks to Dr Shantene and I’d highly recommend her!Posted on Google zeta omarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been accompanying my husband for ongoing management of gout and related comorbidities since February 2026, and our experience under Dr Shantene at KPJ Kajang Specialist Hospital has been consistently reassuring and professionally exemplary. From the outset, Dr Shantene demonstrated a calm, composed, and empathetic clinical approach. Her ability to communicate complex medical information in clear, patient-friendly language is particularly commendable. She provides thorough explanations of my husband’s condition, anticipated disease progression, and management plan, ensuring full patient comprehension without the need for further clarification. Laboratory investigations, including blood and urine analyses, were interpreted meticulously and discussed in detail during each consultation. Importantly, investigations were appropriately indicated, there was no evidence of over-investigation or unnecessary testing. Each parameter was reviewed systematically, with clinical relevance clearly outlined. Pharmacological management was also handled with a high degree of professionalism. Every prescribed medication was explained comprehensively, including its mechanism of action, expected therapeutic outcomes, and potential adverse effects. This level of counselling significantly improved treatment adherence and patient confidence. Clinically, my husband has shown notable improvement under her care, and follow-up consultations have remained consistently positive and well-structured. I also appreciate her professional integrity in maintaining appropriate clinical boundaries. She refrains from making diagnoses outside her scope of expertise and instead facilitates timely referrals to relevant specialists when indicated. Overall, this has been a highly satisfactory experience. KPJ Kajang Specialist Hospital is indeed fortunate to have clinicians of such calibre. Based on prior experiences with other KPJ facilities in Selangor, I can confidently say that standards may vary across branches, but the level of care we received here has been exceptional.Posted on Google Mei YuenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I had my second appointment with Dr Shantene after 3 months for regular health check up. She is very helpful, nice and knowledgeable. Her advice has motivated me to improve my health continuously. Thanks to also the medical assistance officer. Nice environment at KPJ and AR clinic. Keep up the excellent work.Posted on Google Saeed OwairanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a consultation session with Dr. Shantene. She explained everything clearly. Soft spoken and easy for patient to interract. Recommended 👍👍👍Posted on Google Khalis Afiq YusoffTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Shantene diagnosed my condition accurately. I had visited several clinics for my skin condition / pain, but none of them helped. When I finally met Dr. Shantene, her prescription truly helped me recover and soothed my pain, instead of leading to endless, ineffective medication.
