Reviews

Feedback from the Patients

Sally QZ

My mother recently had a minor stroke. As soon as she was admitted to the hospital, the doctors and nurses immediately took action, bringing her blood pressure down from 210 to 139. Furthermore, within 1.5 hours, the CT scan and blood test results were ready, showing impressive efficiency. Her attending physician, Dr. Liao Swee Min, also patiently provided clear explanations. Fortunately, there was no brain hemorrhage, and after 24 hours of observation, she was discharged smoothly the next day. I feel very grateful that we have this private hospital in Segamat—otherwise, the outcome could have been unthinkable.
