Dr Munirah Hishamshah

Dr Munirah Hishamshah is a registered doctor and Medical Director at iLIV Clinic Damansara Perdana. She also reviews the medical content on this site before we publish it.

Clinical focus of Dr Munirah Hishamshah

Dr Munirah Hishamshah focuses on metabolic health, midlife hormones and assessment-led weight management. Most cases referred to her involve women in their forties with disrupted sleep, weight gain although their diet has not changed, and test results reported as normal while symptoms stay obvious.

How Dr Munirah Hishamshah works

She starts every consultation with a full history before ordering any test, and she does not suggest tests that will not change a treatment decision. She then explains every result in a separate session, including where your numbers sit against the reference range and which of them actually matter for you.

What happens in a first consultation

The first session focuses on history. When did symptoms start, what have you already tried, what medication and supplements do you take, how do you sleep, and what did previous tests show? We choose tests at the end of that session rather than before it. Once results come back, we schedule a separate reading session, so you get the numbers explained one by one instead of handed over in an envelope.

• Bring a list of current medication and supplements, with doses
• Bring previous blood test results if you have them, even from years ago
• For hormone assessment, bring two months of cycle dates
• If your panel needs fasting, we send full instructions at booking

Booking

Consultations run at the Damansara Perdana branch, and we schedule fasting blood draws early in the morning. Book a slot and name the doctor you prefer, or contact us first if you have questions.
