I've had experience with Dr. Chan Kin Yuen. He was my surgeon when i did my ACL Reconstruction on my knee in SDMC 3 years ago. I'm comfortable with his service and work. Nice doctor and offer good advice.

My knee has fully recovered or at least 95% recovered. Reason being, i did not follow up with the physio treatments after my surgery.

Dr. Chan is specialize in sports injury.

I only did it on one knee. It cost me about RM21k then with everything included (MRI Scan, Hospitalization for 5 days etc).

Regarding the knee replacement, i've known of a relative who did hers in Sri Kota Medical Centre (SKMC) about 3 yrs ago. She ordered the 'part' from US and did the surgery in SKMC. Not sure about the cost but i'm quite sure it's not more than RM20k.

thanks for the info.
i went to Pantai KL last few week to see Dr Kok Choon Seng. He said the cost for Knee Replacement roughly RM28K for one knee. considering and comparing price of 3 years ago versus now, it should be ok?? reasonable? what do u think?
by the way, i check in SDMC website, this website published the cost of surgery also:

not sure if this cost is for current year... the single knee cost RM25K.

Heard that Dr Suresh George is more "famous" and experience in terms of knee surgery.... still considering which doctor to see.................
