Resident Doctor, Femma Clinic
Dr Liyana’s journey into medicine began long before medical school. As a child, she accompanied her brother through a prolonged medical journey, witnessing firsthand the dedication and compassion of the doctors who cared for him. Those formative years shaped her understanding of what meaningful healthcare truly means — not just treating illness, but standing beside patients during vulnerable moments. That experience inspired her to pursue medicine and to one day offer that same reassurance and steady support to others.
Her passion for women’s health grew from a personal desire to better understand her own body. She recognised how often women’s symptoms are normalised or dismissed, and that realisation evolved into a calling. Today, she is especially passionate about supporting women with hormonal imbalances, PCOS, irregular cycles, metabolic concerns, fatigue, and weight-related struggles. At Femma Clinic, where PCOS-focused care is central, Dr Liyana is committed to helping women move beyond symptom control toward deeper hormonal clarity and long-term balance. For her, women’s health is never just about lab results — it is about how a woman feels in her body every day.
Dr Liyana completed her housemanship at Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz (HCTM), UKM, before serving as a Medical Officer in the Emergency Department at UKM. She later worked as a Surgical Medical Officer at Miri General Hospital, managing general surgical cases including breast-related conditions, before transitioning into primary care in Damansara. These diverse clinical experiences have shaped her calm, thoughtful, and holistic approach to patient care.
She believes healing begins with being heard. In her consultation room, she creates a safe and non-judgmental space where women can speak openly about their concerns. She takes time to explain what is happening in the body clearly and simply, while also addressing lifestyle factors such as sleep, stress, and nutrition. Her goal is to ensure patients feel informed, empowered, and actively involved in their care.
Dr Liyana hopes more women understand that painful periods, heavy bleeding, and constant fatigue are not things that should simply be endured. While common, they are not necessarily normal — and they deserve proper attention.
Patients can expect a thorough yet unhurried consultation, thoughtful assessment, and a collaborative plan moving forward. Dr Liyana was drawn to Femma Clinic because of its strong commitment to women-centred, preventive, and PCOS-focused care — a mission she resonates with deeply. She looks forward to continuing her growth in hormonal and preventive medicine, supporting women with increasing clarity and confidence through every stage of life.
Outside of work, she enjoys spending time in her craft room creating, unwinding with her cat, and attending boxing classes with friends — finding balance in both gentle and powerful outlets that keep her grounded.
