my sis had thyroid cancer last year and treated by dr john low in sunway med (as second opinion), friendly dr. but first impression not very good because he ordered for one test that i think not necessary, end up the test result negative and he still recomend same treatment as forst dr. choosen him because he is friendly and explain things clearly. might want to exclude him if do not have insurance.

hope your family recover well.

seems like not a good choice.

your sister recovered? who she consulted in the end?

Thanks for replying anyway.

yes she recovered, stage 1 only by the way.

the dr is encouraging, and i think mentality plays a role to aid recovery as well, so i pursuaded her to choose this dr over another dr that she first consulted in penang.

Sorry I'm abit confuse. Which doctor u choose again? U mean John Low is very encouraging doctor?

Dr Matin Mellor Abdullah

reference as follow :-

Current President of The Malaysian Oncological Society

Was with him a couple of years back (2013~2015). Very clinical and logical. My family experience was with stage 4 colon cancer.

Downside - if you prefer Chinese / Mandarin speaking, or you need doctor with gentle approach.

Someone recommended me Dr. Ho Kwo Fuang from PPUM. Seems like an option that I can consult.

Anyone else that could recommend me a good oncologist?

My late dad was treated by Dr Tho Lye Mun of Beacon Hospital, PJ.
Now he already jumped ship to Sunway Medical Centre.
Quite ok and humble doctor.

Thanks. Will check it out.

Sorry to hear about your dad.

I heard Beacon is also good for cancer cases.

Thanks.

Actually she is undergoing a treatment here now. Just that she wants to seek a 2nd opinion.
