TCM Software for Penang

MedicalMet is the AI-powered clinic management software for TCM clinics in Penang, Malaysia. It's designed around tcm-specific workflows — Herbal formula composition, Batch/expiry inventory tracking, Pulse/tongue diagnostic fields — and is trusted by 5,000+ healthcare professionals across Southeast Asia.

Last updated: August 2026

TCM is one of 7 recognised T&CM practice areas in Malaysia under Act 775. Full enforcement from 1 April 2024 means unregistered practitioners can no longer offer services. The Federation of Chinese Physicians & Medicine Dealers Associations (FCPMDAM) is the largest practitioner body.

Why generic clinic software fails TCM clinics

TCM clinics manage dual inventory (herbs by batch/expiry/raw weight + consumables), prescription formulas that aren't pharmacy-codified, decoction workflows, and pulse/tongue diagnostic fields. Most GP EMRs cannot handle herbal formula composition or bilingual (Chinese + English) records.

  • Herbal formula composition
  • Batch/expiry inventory tracking
  • Pulse/tongue diagnostic fields
  • Bilingual Chinese + English records
  • Decoction workflow

What TCM Clinics Say

5.0across 5,000+ healthcare professionals

We've been using this clinic system for our practice and it has been a great experience. It's very similar to Cliniko in terms of usability, but at a much better price point. What really stands out is their 24/7 support team — responsive, helpful, and reliable whenever we need assistance. The system also offers many advanced features that other clinic systems don't have, such as AI-generated treatment record plans and a built-in commission plan function. Overall, it has improved our workflow efficiency and team management significantly. Highly recommended for clinics looking for a powerful yet cost-effective solution.

I have been using MedicalMet for the past 5 months, and it is by far the most comprehensive and user-friendly clinic management software I have come across. The system is well designed and continues to evolve, showing that the team truly listens to the needs of healthcare practitioners. I would also like to commend Mr. Wang, who has been extremely responsive and attentive throughout the process. He has always tried his best to accommodate my requests and provide timely support whenever needed. I am very satisfied with his service. What stands out about MedicalMet is that it is a platform that grows together with its clients, continuously improving and adapting to the real needs of clinics. A big thank you to the MedicalMet team for the incredible work they have done. I wish them continued success, and I would definitely recommend MedicalMet to all private healthcare practitioners looking for a reliable clinic management solution.
Calvin Teo
Director, Synergist Physiotherapy
Having everything on the cloud makes it so convenient. I can monitor my clinic from anywhere. And the software gets automatic update once every 2-4 weeks with new features and optimization. The package system is incredibly easy to set up, and the tier-based commission tracking keeps my team motivated without me having to calculate anything manually.
