Gleneagles Kuala Lumpur announced today the launch of Dr Little Club, a membership programme designed to help parents bring out the best in their little ones.

All babies born at the hospital are automatically enrolled as Dr Little Club members while others can be registered via the Gleneagles Kuala Lumpur website. Being part of Dr Little Club opens up members to a host of benefits, including invitations to exclusive events as well as discounts on in-patient medication and accommodation.

Special privileges are further available at partner brands such as Hamleys, Next, Mothercare, Gymboree and Aquaria KLCC. In addition to the perks reserved for children, parents can enjoy discounts on health screening packages at Gleneagles Kuala Lumpur.

They can also access Parentpedia on the Dr Little Club webpage for credible guidance and digestible information on the proper upbringing of their child. Membership in Dr Little Club is free and is open to children aged 12 years and below.

In conjunction with the launch, 100 children had the opportunity to play doctor for a day and learned basic health tips in a fun manner. The participants—aged between six and 10 were brought to experience different interactive stations around the hospital.

​Each one corresponded with a specific medical area, like hand hygiene, emergency procedure, bodily function, human anatomy, medicine safety and even an ambulance tour.

Proceeds from the event’s registration fee will support Gleneagles Kuala Lumpur’s A-Heart for A-Heart corporate giving initiative which provides free medical treatment to underprivileged children affected by congenital heart disease.

More than 1,300 young patients have benefitted from the programme since its introduction in 1996.
