wonder if anyone knows good ent specialist and had done treatment for vertigo?

As they mentioned.

Try dr koay from sunway for consultation. Shold be ard 80 for consultation only.

Been going back to everytime i have problems with my nose

You can try my ex-schoolmate, Dr Chang Chew Ming in Pantai Bangsar.
Usually has a clinic in the morning and operates afternoons.

He was also attached to Assunta on certain days, but I am not sure
of his schedule now.

Dr Tan Lye Suan, lady doctor, on the second floor of the same medical
center is also not bad.

I just visited Dr Chang this afternoon in Pantai Bangsar. Made a phone call to check and made sure he was in before I went over.
He is a good listener and very good patience.

Total bill was RM180 for consultation + meds.

Good to know you visited Dr Chang.

I hope his treatment will improve your condition soon.

I noticed you stay/work at Solaris. I work in Sri Hartamas.

hi cedriccheah,

mind to share what were your problem before the surgery and does the surgery helps? what kind of surgery is that? i mean how was the surgery performed? is it painful during n after the surgery? how long it took u to recover? sorry to ask too many questions. had an operation 18yrs back due to my sinus problem and am still freak out thinking abt it. damn painful. sinus got better but came back few years later n now it's killing me. no flu or anything just feels really dry inside the nose and painful and causes sore throat. and this happens only at night.

is this doc ok? how old is he? experienced doc? how much did u pay for the surgery?

hope to hear from you asap..

thanks.

Hi, not sure is my personal body problem, my sinus issues came back after 2-3 months.
Currently condition just like never did the surgery before...

I did this surgery twice.
1st time Normal FESS, after 1 month sinus problem came back
went for CT scan again, found a lot scar tissues building up, so he suggested for another round of surgery to remove scar tissues
did 2nd times, after 1 month still having same issue.
then he just gave me some antibiotic everytime i see him and he wanna suggest for Balloon Sinuplasty which cost 12K+ which i rejected and never go back again.

1st - RM8K+
2nd - RM6K+

all covered by corporate insurance.

So now i still looking for other solution....

any one have any suggestion?
I dont mind go for chinese medicines...as long can cure sinus problem.

Or you could also try Klinik ENT Dr S.Subra. It's at the opposite of IOI Mall. There are other specialists clinics there as well. Not sure about pricing though. Couldn't find anything online.

According to foursquare's page , the address is, 1 Puchong, Puchong, Selangor Darul Ehsan 47160


Source: A friend went there and said that the doctor is really nice and good

go to Dr Paul Lim ENT clinic at Sunway Medical Centre... i just had two operation on throat and nose there. He is very nice and actively writing articles in newspaper about ENT.. he was also visiting medical lecturer at sunway uni.. not sure now if he still..

Is there any expert doc of throat? I have bad breath which I checked to doctor of throat and did x-ray twice but nothing inside my throat. there were twice that small pieces of hard materials out from my throat, it fairly bad smell..

One of my client was diagnosed with mine re (ear imbalance) and causes vertigo once in a while. She consulted Dr Raymond at Lam Wah Yee Penang Hospital. She only needs to take the medication whenever she has vertigo. However Dr Raymond had left for another hospital, if not mistaken Adventist.

Since her condition is mild, her application for a medical card (after 3 months) was approved with condition. Deafness or treatment for ear imbalance will be decline as it falls under pre-existing illness.

I agree with you too. About 2 hours I was there to take my mum for a check up. While he was checking my mum, he enquired about my thyroid and i told him that i saw another Dr and nevertheless was it ok for him to check me after my mum. For that he gave me a long and serious lecture on being considerate about people. He asked "would you like if others make you wait for so long?" "Why is it that you are not considerate?" Then he repeatedly asked me nearly 4 times - "are you considerate? " and I got really irritated. I then told him, if you are considerate, you would not make all patients wait for so long! He operates from 8.45am - 1.15pm and in that 4 1/2 hours he sees 25 patients - and each person waits about 30 mins - 1 hour! My appointment was at 12.20pm, I was there by 11.45am and waited till 1.15pm before I was attended to!

Gov specialists are good you know but, I DO NOT GO to Government hospitals because I HATE WAITING, but here, I was waiting for 1 hour and pay much more! And on top of that lectured unncessarily! I will never go back to him anymore.

Thanks for the info, I'd be worried if I got any clients to refer.

I'm also looking for ENT specialist in Penang.

Do you know which ENT doctor in Penang is good and hopefully friendly? Adventist is good?

I think I'm having fungus infection in my ear and now causing ear imbalance from time to time. I have earache too especially after talking on the phone.

Getting old already....

You can have a second opinion at Island Hospital Dr Lee Guan Teik (ENT).

Antiques are precious bro, so are you (or should I say US ) :-)

Thanks for the suggestion.

But Island Hospital is pretty expensive....
