The Health Ministry spoke up about worried reports regarding exhausted doctors at Sungai Buloh Hospital. Officials needed to respond after news spread about the hospital's bone clinic handling 300 people on June 30, 2025. The ministry posted on social media that this large count actually contained family members and caregivers who accompanied patients. They wanted to explain the real situation at the overwhelmed medical facility. Health officials admitted they recognize hospitals struggle with heavy patient loads.

Medical leaders checked what actually occurred that day at the bone clinic. Their review revealed that 158 real patients visited the clinic, not the reported 300. The ministry noted that relatives often come with sick people, especially elderly patients and children. This happens regularly at public hospitals throughout the nation. The health department hoped people would grasp the accurate numbers behind the alarming reports.

A social media post had displayed a staff notice stating that only three junior doctors and one specialist handled that hectic day. The Health Ministry disputed this claim about medical staff numbers. Officials confirmed the clinic operated with three specialists and three junior doctors that day. The staffing levels matched regular schedules and the hospital's normal capacity. The ministry aimed to correct false information about doctor availability.
