根據檳城醫院代表指出，涉及暴力對待《中國報》記者鄭志賢的華裔醫生，在事發後對其所作所為感到懊悔，因此希望通過院方代表向鄭志賢致歉。
週三（7月29日）早上，檳城醫院急症科專科醫生Teo Aik Howe出席檳城醫院代表及媒體代表的閉門會議時，傳達這名華裔醫生的致歉聲明。
不過，鄭志賢受詢時說，他接受這名醫生的致歉，但是每個人必須對本身的行為負責，因此他不會取消他的投報，一切交由警方調查。
檳州衛生、福利及愛心社會委員會主席彭文寶表示，他對於記者鄭志賢接受這名醫生道歉事件感到欣慰。同時，他也再3強調，當局會秉持透明及不掩蓋事實的手法，來處理醫生暴力對待記者的事件。
“如果警方要求事發當晚的閉錄電視記錄作調查輔助，當局絕對會提供給警方。”
當天出席是項閉門會議的檳城醫院代表為檳州衛生局主任鄭麗珠、檳城醫院主任朱薇達、檳城醫院副主任嘉斯敏、艾善及急症科專科醫生Teo Aik Howe。
媒體代表為檳城中文報記者及攝影記者協會主席王義展、中國報北馬區辦事處代採訪主任林松榮、檳城報界俱樂部秘書洪東凱、檳城報界俱樂部康樂組主任王順榮及其他新聞從業員等等。
純屬個人意見．備註：那名涉暴醫生在事發後就沒有出現，就連閉門會議上也沒出席，因此感覺上該名醫生的道歉缺誠意。

I think the reporter reserved this treatment by challenging the given limitation, and irritate the patient's family & do not respect to ppl's privacy. I feel thankful to the DR who dare to stand firm to protect his mental patient, who is unable to protect his own privacy being expose by the reporter who is selfish and, do not respect to ppl's privacy and mental patient'e family feeling.Kathy
Refer to this newspaper's subject matter :http://www.chinapress.com.my/content_new.asp , I would like express my dissapointment & feeling of embarassing of the write who's name 鄭志賢. I would also would like express my thankful to the DR. Nowaday's the reader rely on the reporter to report the real incident with integrity, respectful & responsible to what he has wrote in newspaper or e-news. By telling the incident which is not the fact has indirect hurt the mental patient's family & friend just because he wants the news and to attract other's reader's attention.
I truely feel embarass with the reporter, as he tried to obtain the picture which beyond the given limitation by hospital, and never follow the advice given by DR. This has caused the inconveniet for hospital and family's patient feeling irritating. If he would like to know more detail, he should take appropriate action by asking permission from patient's family member to interview for further detail, instead of taking photo to explore the ppl's privacy and in fact he also not report the corect incident, whereby the patient claimed to have mental problem actually do not hurt anyone, including policemen. He was protected himself of being caught by policemen. As a normal human being, I believed you and me surely will have such re-action when ppl want to attack you.
My main point of this letter is to let the reporter know that the doctor had unintentionly hurt him when tried to protect the patient, might be fought a bit harder to protect the patient's and family. But, pls bear in mind, the reporter's action of not respect people privacy and report without integrity even worse than what DR done to him. The patient reserved his human right.
Pls think twice before you act, we need the reporter who is win with integrity and respect to himself and the audience.
You want ppl apologize to his clumsy action that hurt you, pls do apology to the mental's patient & family that you're able not telling the correct things in the newspaper, has caused us feeling sad & dissapointed.
If you would like to know further about the patient, pls feel free to mail me, or even call me. Pls do not simply write something which is not the truth. Again, thanks for your concern & understand.
As a doctor's responsibility is to cure patients, rather than to obstruct reporters.
Moreover, in a civilized world, the use of violence is a barbaric act.
If you think the doctor has done nothing wrong, then it will equal you in favor of the use of violence in a civilized society
To the anonymous,
Who is this doctor to protect so-called "the right of the patients"? Did the patient's family want him to do so? Perhaps the patient's family happy with the interview as they might have something to say.... We are not GOD, so don't act in the name of "protecting" others. "Showing power" and "protecting patients" is in the blurring line.
