Dr. Harjeet Singh, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
Every month, Dr Harjeet Singh explores injury management and prevention in sports and exercise. The Asian Games in Indonesia just ended and Malaysia retained its 14th placing in the medals tally, with 7 gold, 13 silver and 16 bronze medals. We praise our athletes, and their coaches, and the sports ministry for a job well done but let’s turn our attention to the unsung heroes in their scrubs: The physicians. For a behind-the-scene perspective, we speak to Malaysia’s team doctor at the recent Asian Games, Consultant Sports Physician Dr Kamaljeet Singh.
