Tina Kamber’s decision to travel over 9,700 kilometres from Germany to Kuala Lumpur for Femto-LASIK surgery wasn't made lightly. However, the results by Dr. Tan Niap Ming, Consultant Ophthalmologist, and the warm hospitality she experienced at Prince Court Medical Centre truly opened her eyes to the benefits Malaysia offers to medical tourists.
Overcoming Scepticism and Misconceptions
The decision to travel to Malaysia for Femto-LASIK surgery was met with scepticism from friends and family. Many questioned why Tina would choose to undergo a procedure abroad when local options were available. There were also misconceptions about Malaysia being a third-world country with inferior medical standards compared to Germany.
These doubts were shared by a family friend who accompanied Tina for his own surgery. However, this scepticism was quickly squashed when they arrived in Kuala Lumpur to find it comparable to major German cities like Frankfurt.
At Prince Court, the grand lobby greeted them with the soothing melody of a pianist, instantly calming any lingering concerns and showcasing the centre's commitment to excellence. It became evident that Prince Court exceeded the standards of local hospitals in Germany.
True Value
A significant factor in the decision for Tina to travel to Kuala Lumpur for the procedure was the cost comparison, revealing that Femto-LASIK surgery at Prince Court was half the price of the cheapest clinic near her home in Germany. This cost advantage allowed for top-notch medical treatment, in addition to a two-week vacation that she could not resist!
Pre-Procedure Consultations and Thorough Evaluations
To ensure eligibility for Femto-LASIK surgery, Tina and her companion consulted with two different doctors in Germany. Both doctors confirmed their suitability for the procedure.
However, upon arrival at Prince Court, the pre-surgery check-up was far more thorough, involving extensive testing for half a day. This meticulous approach revealed that Tina was cleared to undergo the procedure but her companion was not suitable for Femto-LASIK due to thin eye nerves, a condition not identified by the German doctors.
The integrity and thoroughness of Prince Court’s medical evaluation impressed both individuals, highlighting the centre's commitment to patient safety over profit.
Surgery Experience and Recovery
On the day of the surgery, Tina was reassured by the professionalism and calm demeanour of Dr. Tan and her team. The procedure was explained in great detail, and the patient felt well-prepared. Post-surgery, the recovery was much smoother than anticipated, with no redness or light sensitivity. There was minor tearing but all symptoms disappeared by evening, allowing Tina to return to her normal routines by evening!
Pure Satisfaction and Highly Recommended
Six weeks post-surgery, Tina reported a high level of satisfaction with the results, experiencing clear vision. The positive experience at Prince Court has led her to become a strong advocate for the medical centre, recommending it to others considering medical tourism for Femto-LASIK surgery.
Tina’s companion, although unable to undergo the procedure, also praised the thorough evaluation and integrity of the medical team at Prince Court, shifting his perspective on medical tourism and the quality of care in Malaysia.
