Dato’ Dr Anthonysamy Savarinathan
xx xx, xxxx - xx xx, xxxx
Dato Anthonysamy has been a pillar of strength and a beacon for CDAM. He leaves a wife Patricia and two children. He was a staunch Catholic and attended the Good Shepherd Church, Setapak. For the past 30 years, Dato Anthonysamy has been active in helping people of every race and religion. He has his own clinic in Jalan Ampang K. Lumpur where he would give either free treatment or just charge for the medication. Dato was active in helping out at CDAM's many Outreach Programs including the following: CDAM’s free clinic at Zotung Centre in Jalan Loke yew K. Lumpur to treat the Chin Community (Myanmarese) This clinic is run fortnightly by Dato and a few CDAM Doctors on rotation basis. Deworm Program in K. Lumpur to treat children of the various migrant communities. This program was started by Dr. Gladis Lawrence. For the past 3 years Dato helped to set up the Samaritan Hope Home in Jalan Pudu K. Lumpur for the Homeless in K. Lumpur to provide medical care and food for the Homeless. We have a clinic there which is run fortnightly by Dato, Sister Fatima and some volunteer doctors and other helpers.Due to the MCO the clinics temporarily closed. On the International Scene Dato had until recently been attending AFCMA (Asian Federation of Catholic Medical Association)'s Congresses which is held in different Asian Countries every 4 years whereby doctors from all over Asia get together to enjoy and strenghten their fellowship besides exchanging scientific information and matters pertaining to defending our Catholic Church's Teachings. Dato Anthonysamy was appointed as a Vice President of AFCMA at the AFCMA Congress in Bali, Indonesia. Dato was always a humble and compassionate Catholic Doctor. CDAM will miss him. We hope that our young doctors will try to emulate him. May his soul rest in eternal peace. Amen. Prepared by Dr. Freddie Loh Vice President CDAM.

I am in disbelief that you are no longer with us. You have been our family doctor for 3 decades, supporting us through thick and thin with humour and an easy going demeanour. During some difficult times, you put us at ease with your infectious smile and funny stories. And you always had time for everyone. Even across long distances. We shall miss you dearly and remember you fondly. Rest in peace, Dr. Anthony! You were taken way before your time. Your memory will burn forever bright as a true testament to the best of humankind.

My sister Irene and I would like to express our deepest condolences to Dr Anthonysamy’s family. His care and support of my late mother was deeply appreciated by us, as was the support he and Mrs. Anthonysamy gave us after his death. He exemplified medical care in general practice, and the practice of our Catholic faith, at its very best. May his soul rest in peace.

A father figure to us catholic doctors, living a life of faith by example. Gentle words of encouragement and leading by example by his works of charity. Will be greatly missed. Just found out he was the panel doctor for my brothers company and they have only good things to say about him. Deepest condolences to the family and also to the CDAM committee.
