Go and see the facilities and prices in Life Care Diagnostic and compare with Pathlab/BP. The facilities in Life Care is almost as good as Subang Jaya Medical Hospital except that  like some people said, the waiting time is quite long. But it is better to be accurate and long rather than not accurate and fast.

Pathlab almost same as BP healthcare in terms of quality and facilities, you can google the reviews, it got very poor rating

Thanks, checked some reviews and looks decent. What about your personal experience? Are the doctors there good?

Facilities looks like very well equipped.

Facilities is definitely ten times better than BP healthcare and Pathlab which are just small clinics.

I only did my blood test packages which is around RM80 for more than 60 parameters for several years, once per year.

I didn't go for medical checkup but I looked around and most of their professional staff and doctors are Chinese.  brows.gif

Their official website has photos of their doctors.

Just go for free tour first and decide later , they have PR staff there.

Hi. I am looking for a more customized health check.

Anyone know of these are available around? I think
these package are a bit overkill . I am just concern about certain areas / parts .
I think these package are just to make the menu look great really.

Having said that if there is a free consultation so I can highlight my concern before the check will be great .

Haven't been much checks before. And so far search only show packages..

young people going for checkups, what do you expect to find? once they discover any abnormalities, thats when you'll be sucked in the treatment and more checkups by private hospitals. can say goodbye to your wallet.

not to say health checkups is a scam, but like some guys here said, its overkill.

Yeap

Depending on your age, check ups are only necessary is you do not feel well or you are at an age of risk.

Young ppl do the rm200 range one. Don't be surprised a lot of ppl in their early 30's already got high bad cholesterol. Result of eating lunch outside everyday. With the black and white, might sedar sikit to be more careful, because I'm one of them.

Most of colleague in their late 30's got high blood pressure and they're not fat

I'd also like to know if these more comprehensive checkups offered by hospitals are needed vs the under RM200 ones offered by Pathlab or BP. Can any medical experts chime in?

most ppl seems to think that they can interpret themselves the results coming out of the labs..

find a doctor u can trust.. ask him to recommend the test required.. and go through the results with him...

health check must be done consistently with professional guidance..

i know of ppl who done health check once in his mid 20s.. then nv do for the next 10 years.. and in his mid 30s keep telling ppl his last test was OK .

yes.. i do annual health check with a family doctor....
the doctor knows my family history so he knows which extra test to check

Any specific reason for you to be selecting there? Is it price or service quality?  Also, any specific package you're aiming for?

Edited:  Thanks! That website has quite a bit of info on different packages.
