During the 2024 Lunar New Year, DC Healthcare Holdings Berhad, the parent company of Dr Chong Clinic and DC Body, has embarked on a heartwarming initiative to support families in need throughout Penang and Sungai Petani. Recognizing the financial strains faced by less fortunate families during this festive season, the company organized a significant donation of essential groceries, aiming to ensure that every family can partake in the joyous celebrations without undue hardship.

The gesture of goodwill saw Dr Chong Clinic and DC Body donating over 3000 kg of essential groceries to more than 400 families across the region. With the intention of providing relief from financial pressure, the program aimed to supply over a month’s worth of groceries to each recipient, offering vital support during the Lunar New Year period.

Delivery of the essential groceries was carried out across seven different locations, including community centres in low-cost apartments, a surau, an OKU home, and a community temple. This widespread distribution ensured that families from various backgrounds and circumstances could benefit from the generosity of DC Healthcare Holdings Berhad.

Reflecting on the significance of the CSR program, company representatives emphasized its alignment with the core values of Detailed, Caring, and One Team. The meticulous attention to detail exhibited by the doctors of Dr Chong Clinic in their medical practice translated seamlessly into the planning and execution of the donation program, ensuring that each family received precisely what they needed. Moreover, the empathetic and compassionate nature of the initiative underscored the company’s commitment to caring for the community, exemplifying the spirit of unity and support encapsulated by the value of One Team.

DC Healthcare Holdings Berhad, led by its founder and Managing Director, Dr. Chong Tze Sheng, has experienced remarkable growth since its inception in 2016. Beginning with a single clinic in Kepong, the company has expanded to encompass 16 branches nationwide, with plans to open 20 branches by the end of 2024. Dr Chong Clinic, renowned as the first publicly listed aesthetic chain in Bursa Malaysia, has earned a reputation as one of the country’s most successful aesthetic clinics, boasting a team of over 40 dedicated doctors.

In addition to its aesthetic ventures, DC Body represents the company’s foray into the slimming industry, with its inaugural branch opening in Penang in January 2024. Building on the trust and confidence established by Dr Chong Clinic, DC Body aims to revolutionize the slimming industry, offering customers a comprehensive approach to health and wellness.

As DC Healthcare Holdings Berhad continues to expand its footprint and impact within the healthcare and wellness sector, initiatives like the recent grocery donation program underscore the company’s unwavering commitment to serving the community and making a positive difference in the lives of others, especially during times of celebration and festivity.
