So, my hospital would be having a corporate rebranding exercise next week. The main group would be renamed Ramsay Sime Darby Healthcare Group and my hospital would revert to its original name before Some Darby took over more than 5 years back. Back to Subang Jaya Medical Center - SJMC.
Was it a step backwards? Well, on a personal note, I prefer SJMC. When I was still in the UK, SJMC was the premier private hospital here in KL, and since switching the name, may have lost some of its revered reputation. SDMC sounded to generic. Under the same move, SDMC AD would be renamed Ara Damansara Medical Center and SDMC Park City would be called Park City Medical Center.
And this would go live with the grand opening of Park City Medical Center next Tuesday afternoon. Prime Minister Najib - and I would think Datin Rosmah - would be doing the honours. I would be free to attend but of course. My scheduling could be dicey at times.
Let's see what transpires as according to the invitation letter, it would be a whole afternoon affair.
