Our Services
Occupational Health Services
Occupational health care is a service provided and paid for by the employer for the purpose of supporting employees’ work ability. Occupational health care promotes a healthy workplace environment and safe working conditions.
An Occupational Health Assessment is a medical examination performed by an Occupational Health Physician. Its main aim is to advise employers on the employee’s health and make recommendations on what adjustments could be considered to ensure a safe/healthy working environment for that employee.
The aim of occupational health is to prevent work-related illness and injury by:
- encouraging safe working practices;
- ergonomics (studying how you work and how you could work better);
- monitoring the health of the workforce;
- supporting the management of sickness absence.
The service is medically confidential. Any information obtained by the occupational health doctor or nurse is strictly confidential to OH. No information is divulged to any third party, including the person’s general practitioner (GP) without the person’s informed consent.
If you are interest to work with us, please email us at enquiry@zipzip.com.my.
Vaccination & Travel Medicine
VACCINATION
This schedule of recommended immunizations may vary depending upon where you live, your child’s health, the type of vaccine, and the vaccines available.
Some of the vaccines may be given as part of a combination vaccine so that a child gets fewer shots. Talk with your doctor about which vaccines your kids need.
Birth
- HepB:Hepatitis B vaccine. Ideally, the first dose is given within 24 hours of birth, but kids not previously immunized can get it at any age. Some low birth weight infants will get it at 1 month or when they’re discharged from the hospital.
1–2 months
- HepB:Second dose should be given 1 to 2 months after the first dose.
2 months
- DTaP:Diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine
- Hib:Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine
- IPV:Inactivated poliovirus vaccine
- PCV:Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine
- RV:Rotavirus vaccine
4 months
- DTaP:Diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine
- Hib:Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine
- IPV:Inactivated poliovirus vaccine
- PCV:Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine
- RV:Rotavirus vaccine
6 months
- DTaP:Diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine
- Hib:Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine. This third dose may be needed, depending on the brand of vaccine used in previous Hib immunizations.
- PCV:Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine
- RV:Rotavirus vaccine. This third dose may be needed, depending on the brand of vaccine used in previous RV immunizations.
6 months and annually
- Influenza (Flu):The flu vaccine is recommended every year for children 6 months and older:
- Kids younger than 9 who get the flu vaccine for the first time (or who have only had one dose before July 2019) will get it in two separate doses at least a month apart.
- Those younger than 9 who have had at least two doses of flu vaccine previously (in the same or different seasons) will only need one dose.
- Kids older than 9 only need one dose.
- The vaccine is given by injection with a needle (the flu shot) or by nasal spray. Both types of vaccine can be used this flu season (2019-2020) because they seem to work equally well. Your doctor will recommend which to use based on your child’s age and general health. The nasal spray is only for healthy people ages 2–49. People with weakened immune systems or some health conditions (such as asthma) and pregnant women should notget the nasal spray vaccine.
6–18 months
12–15 months
- Hib
- MMR:Measles, mumps, and rubella (German measles) vaccine
- PCV
- Chickenpox (varicella)
12–23 months

15–18 months

For teens and young adults (ages 15–26 in girls and ages 15–21 in boys), it is given in three shots over 6 months. It’s recommended for both girls and boys to prevent genital warts and some types of cancer.
- Tdap:Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis booster. Also recommended during each pregnancy a woman has.
- Meningococcal conjugate vaccine:And a booster dose is recommended at age 16.
16–18 years
- Meningococcal B vaccine (MenB):The MenB vaccine may be given to kids and teens in two or three doses, depending on the brand. Unlike the meningococcal conjugate vaccine, which is recommended, the MenB vaccine is given at the discretion of the doctor.
Special circumstances
- HepA:can be given as early as 6 months of age to babies who will travel to a place where hepatitis A is common (they will still need routine vaccination after their first birthday). It’s also recommended for kids 2 years and older and adults who are at high risk for the disease. This includes people who live in, travel to, or adopt children from areas with high rates of hepatitis A, people with clotting disorders, people with chronic liver disease, homeless people, and drug users. The vaccine also can be given to anyone who wants immunity to the disease, and is useful for staff at childcare facilities or schools, where they may be at risk of exposure.
- The MMR vaccine:can be given to babies as young as 6 months old if they will be traveling internationally. These children should still get the recommended routine doses at 12–15 months and 4–6 years of age, but can get the second dose as early as 4 weeks after the first if they will still be traveling and at risk.
- The flu vaccine:is especially important for kids who are at risk for health problems from the flu. High-risk groups include, but aren’t limited to, kids younger than 5 years old and those with chronic medical conditions, such as asthma, heart problems, sickle cell disease, diabetes, or HIV.
- The meningococcal vaccines:can be given to kids as young as 8 weeks old (depending on the brand of vaccine) who are at risk for a meningococcal infection, such as meningitis. This includes children with certain immune disorders. Kids who live in (or will be traveling to) countries where meningitis is common, or where there is an outbreak, should also get the vaccine.
- Pneumococcal vaccines:also can be given to older kids (age 2 and up) who have conditions that affect their immune systems, such as asplenia or HIV infection, or other conditions, like a cochlear implant, chronic heart disease, or chronic lung disease.

Medical Imaging
REMEDIC CLINICS offers a full range of diagnostic imaging and interventional radiology services for both adult and children with various medical conditions.
Our team of skilled radiologists works with the area’s most-advanced medical imaging technologies for faster diagnosis and treatment.
You take pictures to remember moments you don’t want to forget. At REMEDIC Clinics, we take pictures because they are an integral part of our ability to detect, diagnose, and treat your injury or illness. The locations in our network offer a full spectrum of clinical diagnostic and therapeutic medical imaging services — from routine X-rays to ultrasounds.
These leading-edge tools enable us to detect and identify your condition in its early stages while directing treatment to damaged or diseased areas with greater effectiveness. Once we get a clear and accurate picture of what’s going on inside, we can begin to provide the healing you need.
X-Ray, often called radiography, produces a two-dimensional image of the inside of the body. The X-ray beam passes through the body and is captured on a computerized detector. With this detailed picture, we can determine whether a bone is chipped, dislocated, or broken; evaluate joint injuries and bone infections; screen for heart and lung disease; locate objects accidentally swallowed by a child; and evaluate the source of abdominal pain.
Ultrasound Imaging, also called ultrasound scanning or sonography, is a non-invasive medical test that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce pictures of the inside of the body. Ultrasound examinations do not use ionizing radiation, as used in X-rays. Because ultrasound images are captured in real time, they can show the structure and movement of the body’s internal organs, as well as blood flowing through blood vessels.
What to Expect at Your Medical Imaging Test
You are not a fan of surprises. We hear you. That’s why we’ve provided a comprehensive guide to help you prepare for your medical imaging experience. From detailing what to bring with you to outlining every step of the procedure itself, our guides provide a timeline of what you can expect before, during, and after your imaging appointment. Let us know if you have any additional questions or concerns.
