Dr. Ima, Malaysian Veterinarian, Breaks Stigma While Promoting Animal Welfare

Selangor, El Sky News – Dr. Salehatul Khuzaimah Mohamad Ali, widely known as Dr. Ima, is a Malaysian veterinarian recognized for her efforts to challenge social stigma surrounding animal care, particularly towards dogs.

She operates two veterinary clinics in Selangor: Serv-U Veterinary Clinic & Surgery in Kota Kemuning and Trio Veterinary Clinic & Surgery in Bandar Sri Damansara.

Dr. Ima is a graduate of Universiti Putra Malaysia, where she studied veterinary medicine. With more than a decade of professional experience, she has built a reputation for treating all kinds of animals while addressing misconceptions within her community.

Beyond her clinical work, Dr. Ima plays an active role in public education by spreading awareness about pet care, hygiene, and welfare standards. Her outreach on social media has inspired many Malaysians, particularly young women in science, to pursue their passion despite societal expectations.
