Sunway Medical Centre’s Paediatric Endocrine Clinic in Sunway City provides specialised care for children and young people from birth to 21, managing a wide range of hormonal and growth-related conditions with medical guidance and compassion.

Adolescence marks one of life’s most dynamic phases — a period of transformation that brings physical, emotional, and hormonal changes in rapid succession. It’s a time filled with discovery, change, and growth For parents, especially those living abroad, it can sometimes be worrying when a child’s growth or puberty doesn’t follow the usual pattern. To provide families with expert guidance through every stage of development, Sunway Medical Centre in Sunway City offers the Paediatric Endocrine Clinic, a dedicated service for children and young people from birth to 21 years old.

SPECIALISED CARE FOR EVERY STAGE OF GROWTH

The clinic is led by Dr. Ch’ng Tong Wooi, Consultant Paediatrician and Paediatric Endocrinologist, who trained extensively in Malaysia and the United States. She completed her paediatric residency and a three-year fellowship in paediatric endocrinology in the US, where she also practised as an endocrinologist before returning home to continue her work in Malaysia.

Dr. Ch’ng focuses on the intricate balance of hormones that influence growth and development from infancy through young adulthood. Among the most common conditions treated are growth and height concerns, early or delayed puberty, menstrual irregularities, weight concerns, lipid disorders, thyroid and adrenal problems, gynaecomastia (breast development in boys), and juvenile diabetes. These conditions may sound medical, but in everyday life they affect confidence, energy, and emotional balance.

“From birth through young adulthood, the body goes through extraordinary hormonal changes,” says Dr. Ch’ng. “With early assessment and proper guidance, many of these issues can be well-managed. The goal is to help children and families understand their health and feel empowered.”
