Currently, there are about 60 such clinics in the country. They serve citizens of different countries: patients from Pakistan and Bangladesh come because of the quality of Malaysian healthcare, and patients from South Korea, Singapore and Japan because of the affordability of procedures. In addition to Asians, there are people from Europe and America in Malaysian medical and diagnostic institutions.
What is remarkable about the treatment in Malaysia?
Malaysian clinics that receive patients from abroad operate in strict accordance with international quality standards, and their activities are licensed by the Malaysian Society for the Control and Provision of Medical Care. Hospitals are partially accredited by the ISO and JCI commissions, which automatically puts them on a par with institutions in Western countries. More than 90% of practicing doctors have completed training and internships in Australia, Great Britain, Germany, Israel, Japan and the USA.
Such institutions as Twin Towers Medical Center, Adventist Clinic, Specialized Ophthalmology and Ophthalmic Surgery Center in Kuala Lumpur, Jantung Negara National Cardiology Institute and others are popular among foreigners.
Foreigners prefer to come to Malaysia for medical treatment for the following services:
- robotic, laparoscopic and endoscopic surgery;
- operations on the organs of vision and appendages of the eyes;
- obstetrics, gynecology, and assisted reproductive technologies;
- rejuvenating and beautifying aesthetic procedures;
- dentistry (therapeutic and surgical);
- full or partial dental implantation;
- hemodialysis and kidney treatment;
- voluntary vaccination for adults and children;
- nursing of premature babies;
- neonatology and pediatric procedures;
- check-up batch diagnostics.
In Malaysian clinics, high-quality plastic surgery and reconstruction of heart valves, correction of heart defects, coronary artery bypass grafting and surgical treatment of other cardiopathologies in patients of different age categories are performed.
The cost of treatment in Malaysia
The cost of medical services in Malaysian medical and diagnostic institutions is one of the most affordable in the world. Prices for procedures are on average 50-70% lower than in the UK and the USA. A highly specialized doctor's consultation will cost $ 50-60, plastic surgery – from $ 2,000, cardiac surgery – from $ 7,500, IVF – from $ 3,500.
Patient reviews of services in Malaysian clinics
People who have been treated in Malaysia speak mostly positively about the quality of services. They note the good service, the availability of advanced diagnostic and therapeutic methods, and the attention of doctors.
Over the past 20 years, government organizations have managed to significantly reduce cases of medical negligence and negligence, but part of the trend of lack of compensation in cases of unfair practices persists. For this reason, people considering treatment in Malaysia should contact clinics with high ratings and licenses from international departments.
Every year, Malaysian clinics receive more than 650,000 patients from other countries and continents. The growing flow of tourists encourages local healthcare structures to systematically improve the quality of service, so Russian citizens can safely apply to the country for clinical care.
