At the Association of Private Practitioners Sabah (APPS), we do not merely represent private doctors—we defend, protect, and empower them.
APPS exists to ensure that no private practitioner in Sabah is ever ignored, overruled, or steamrolled by overreaching officials, regulatory bodies, or ministry bureaucrats—be they petty Little Napoleons or entrenched systems. We do not tolerate interference, whether minor or major.

Our mission is clear and uncompromising: to safeguard your right to run your medical practice with dignity, autonomy, and absolute peace of mind—free from harassment, intimidation, or bureaucratic meddling.
Every concern brought to APPS is treated as a priority. No issue is too small. We act swiftly, strategically, and without hesitation—seeking dialogue where possible, but ready to take decisive, confrontational steps when necessary. We do not back down when your professional rights are at stake.
APPS is your firewall—especially for solo or small-group practitioners who often face challenges alone. With us, you are never alone. You have a voice. You have protection. You have power.
All matters raised are handled with full confidentiality and unwavering discretion—unless you authorize otherwise. Your trust is sacrosanct.
But we don’t stop at defense—we invest in your growth.
APPS runs an annual Scientific Conference that guarantees you the 20 CPD points needed for APC renewal, and we provide high-impact, practical courses like Ultrasound Certification and Intra-Articular Injection Workshops, specifically designed for busy private practitioners.
We are not a passive association—we are a strategic force.
APPS is your Powerful Shield in times of conflict, and your Powerful Voice in shaping the future of private practice in Sabah.
