Too low sales for u might be ok/high to others… what is the cost structure? Only sell medi? No income from consultation and other treatments? Covid test, injections, etc..

you want to put a high price on your medicine to cover your loss, it is your choice. But why putting a price list is a problem for your profiteering act? Because you can't cheat people anymore?

Study in USM, fees only 10k for 5 years. This itself is already untung. Other people spent 500k to study in IMU/Monash/MAHSA.

Why suddenly open in ulu place like Ipoh?

And during MCO is when clinics are making big money. While most business have to close, clinics are allowed to operate. Many even making big money providing covid vaccinations.

My friend said the GPs nowadays take the Australian GP exam from Malaysia, and then move there, earn 40k aud pre tax a month. He plans to do the same.

Alternatively AMC exam, leave from gov

I think the end result would still mean there will be GPs in Malaysia, just that gov drs severely lacking

Not everything the private hospital will accept, they will say no bed, no resources to treat this, no expertise even if they actually do. That's what many people still fall to realise. When young and healthy, perspective is not the same until you get rejected by private

covid is a time when clinics are making a killing. earning damn a lot for covid test, then for covid vaccination.

covid test kit RM20, then charge patient RM250. One day can do 100 patients. You do the math.

Not all clinic are in on this action.
In order for clinic to survive well, they need to be panel to big corporations. Then got steady stream of patients who then have to be covid tested in order to work.

Doctor who are nerds decide to get into cuthroat business


Cmon if u are popular doctor with followers maybe. If u know marketing and can do good job at that you can attract people


He never mention any of the sales and marketing job he had to do so I assume he setup clinic and expect many to throng his clinic for treatment


Sorry to say medical is a cut throat business if h think opening up a klinik and expecting to be rich

Why u think fake mc is so popular because need way to survive

Why you said he is greedy?

It’s location problem + pandemic time.

Close the clinic and shift elsewhere.

The problem with clinic is you cannot advertise.

I don't know how clinic nowadays survive.

In Setia Alam area, there's more than 14 clinics I saw around here.

Popular clinics such as Mediviron attract a lot of customers. But individual doctor that open their own practice, need to compete with the big name

individual operators without big brands need longer time to be trusted by the local community. u need holding power with good service and time

but once the trust is established, u will get steady stream of customers

most ppl just opt to join a franchise, pay a fee to get branding asap

Duh who duno? The difference is Doctors spent at least 500k to study medicine and countless hours studying their hearts out

Do other business owners spend the same amount to study?

Yes every street has a clinic, what makes the difference between a successful cclinic and a failed one is the doctor.

Ppl will only go to doctors who they trust . If the doctor lacks the soft skills to deal with patients, confirm their clinic will fail even though they have the knowledge.

Being a Dr is not just about being a Dr. Its all about how the doctor talks to the patient, how they make their patients feel good about themselves.

Being a Dr is also a salesjob. U are basically selling your skillset to patients. Whether patients buy your story depends on how good your present yourself

I have been to sorry to say some type M clinics where the doctor is wearing a working shirt and pants but wearing slippers. Besides , he looks like he is there to just make a quick buck. After consulting me, he straight away ran out of the clinic to do something.

These are the clinics which i will ban for life

I think it's only applies for non long term staff..

Like freelance cikgu in gomen school also have.. Weekdays gomen school weekend tuition center, then complain income low lol

How to work more than 12 hours shift without at least 8 hours rest before and after ? How is that sustainable?

Doctor job is like hawker level difficult level, different is like back in olden days no computer, have to remember medicines, nowadays I guess anyone who isn't buta huruf can learn medical quit easily especially don't have to memorize that much.

wat? no need to thank me. ayammmm /k-tarding as usual. biggrin.gif

Its gomen policies that impact the healthcare service.

nowadays SPM leavers dun want to become doktor anymore... the hype is gone just like other courses like comp science and even biotech last time...
(also, thx to certain govt policies like 'contract'-based employment etc)

Gomen hospital facing severe shortage of housemen... in return - shortage of medical officers later on...

Study in USM, fees only 10k for 5 years. This itself is already untung. Other people spent 500k to study in IMU/Monash/MAHSA.

Why suddenly open in ulu place like Ipoh?

And during MCO is when clinics are making big money. While most business have to close, clinics are allowed to operate. Many even making big money providing covid vaccinations.

My friend said the GPs nowadays take the Australian GP exam from Malaysia, and then move there, earn 40k aud pre tax a month. He plans to do the same.

Alternatively AMC exam, leave from gov

I think the end result would still mean there will be GPs in Malaysia, just that gov drs severely lacking

Not everything the private hospital will accept, they will say no bed, no resources to treat this, no expertise even if they actually do. That's what many people still fall to realise. When young and healthy, perspective is not the same until you get rejected by private

I can tell you, setting up a clinic is no joke. The cost of operating one is HUGE. You need to be compliant to the PHFSA, which includes having a wheelchair ramp, metal holders in toilets and others. And if you have a few other clinics nearby, you have massive competition to get customers to come your clinic.

my area the 2 street of shops have 4 GP clinics and 1 pharmacy for many years, didnt add or reduce in number.
then one fine year, came the pharmacy frenzy opening.
end up total 5 pharmacies in that 2 row shops.
idk how they going to survive, but good for consumer i guess.
AA pharmacy staff treated me like invisible. so i boikote and go other pharmacy instead. since competition is immense, i doubt the price can differ much.

Open clinic is a professional business. Of course, it is different than say opening a roadside foodstall. You hardly hear of clinics closed down due to financial difficulties in countries with strict requirements to become a doctor, but in Malaysia, to ensure racial equality, the standard has to be reduced.
What you see now is the price that had to be paid for not adopting meritocracy; either you have high-quality healthcare, or you pass every mediocre student who shouldn't be a doctor in the first place if the meritocracy system is followed.

Doctors are special breed. Harapan masyarakat.

Of course we need to cater their every cry and whine. If they run business, we have to make sure they are rich and can change BMW every year. We have to pay whatever charge they put on their services and meds. They cannot be subjected to any laws, especially those protecting consumer interests.

This sounds like story created out of thin air.

Clinic is the few services that are categorised as essential and allowed to open during MCO.

There is no such thing as clinic forced to close during MCO.

The most expensive GP I kena was in Ipoh. Wife got food poisoning and the price the GP charged 10 years ago is still more expensive than what my KL doctor would charge now.

I think GP is mostly a customer service job. Need to be patient, polite, be a good listener, and have some empathy to get repeat customers.

It is a stupid business with lack of scalability.

Because the profit margin is capped, and the number of customers is limited by the doctor's time. The doctor can never free himself unless he pays another doctor , and a doctor isn't cheap to hire unlike sales assistant.

Sell fruit better. U can hire any Tom dick and Harry who can talk , then can sell simultaneously to many people. Plus people don't bat eyelid buying musang king few hundred but if doctor bill rm100 people make noise alrdy

It used to be good because the barrier to entry was high, hence each area got one GP only. So it is almost guaranteed income.
Then sohai open floodgates and market saturated with GPs.

Sometimes it is a choice , or a preference, or interest.

Like not everyone wants to go thru tough training , separated from family etc, or maybe being a specialist is not what they want in life.

In fact my friend said in his batch the brightest became normal je like family medicine or medical specialist, paediatric, those not so good results became bone surgeon etc ....and yet people.will look at the surgeon and say wow you're better than those family.medicine and internal medicine specialist.

This

Seen before such clinic, very damn7 popular especially among the older people, maybe they prefer a caring and polite doctor, sometimes good soft skills matter. This one clinic, every day full, lots of people queue, even old ppl send their kids to queue first. Open during mco, within 5 years from 1 shop lot expand to 3 shop lots and add a lot new equipment. The doctor is humble type but is a specialist.

Govt matching grant . U can buy machinery for 50% or 70% depends on the grant and your sme status, micro or small or medium. So if u got 70% grant, u just pay 30% only to suppler. The rest is from the grant itself . I was lucky during 2023 grant, there’s rental package. So I can claim up to 50k for rental for 1 year which I claimed max for that since my rental is 8k for a month for ground floor.

All my xray opg(100k) and pa(20k), sterilization(19k) , dental chair 1(40k), dental chair 2(30k), dental chair 3(135k) all fully paid no hutang.

I’ve shared how to all my wife dentist friend, but none of them are actually perusing the grant.

The increase in number of doctors and pharmacist is not due to the sudden increase of intelligent and hardworking students.

This increase is due to the sudden increase of universities offering medical programmes because it's highly demanded by the richer class.

Unker only want to see doctors coming from UM, UKM, USM and Singapore. The rest , Unker not very confident. Unker came from the era when only those who went through HSC and STPM became doctors. They are now the hard core consultants whom really can stood the test of time

Nowadays, many rich pathways to become a doctor such as IGCSE, IB , Matriculation etc...Unker very scared... Unker is paying the same... Unker want the best doctors.... Don't want rich siow kia around

Unker doesn't think they need legal protection because already got lesen. You can't float all boats at the expense of the society.

Duh who duno? The difference is Doctors spent at least 500k to study medicine and countless hours studying their hearts out

Do other business owners spend the same amount to study?
Yes every street has a clinic, what makes the difference between a successful cclinic and a failed one is the doctor.

Ppl will only go to doctors who they trust . If the doctor lacks the soft skills to deal with patients, confirm their clinic will fail even though they have the knowledge.

Being a Dr is not just about being a Dr. Its all about how the doctor talks to the patient, how they make their patients feel good about themselves.

Being a Dr is also a salesjob. U are basically selling your skillset to patients. Whether patients buy your story depends on how good your present yourself

I have been to sorry to say some type M clinics where the doctor is wearing a working shirt and pants but wearing slippers. Besides , he looks like he is there to just make a quick buck. After consulting me, he straight away ran out of the clinic to do something.

These are the clinics which i will ban for life

just because it is working for other ppl doesnt make it right to say free market and then cap consultation fees, after all there is no subsidy from govt , and the cap has not been increased since decades

if u wanna cap, make sure govt subsidize the GPs. fair and square.

dont use GP for political ammo, let everyone see wah our govt so good, cap prices for GP make everyone affordable, then GP become victim as a result.

become doctor dont expect to earn money.... people will see you as villain

no wonder last time my small town GP did that, he drove a potong wira only.

Some Malaysian very funny one

When ppl business/clinic suffer loses, say it is free market wut

But turn around and tell gov to cap consultation fee

Very free market eh?

basically mareshian very kiasu one. they cant stand other ppl earning money.

if business owner they happily chop other ppl carrot, dun care selling good product or bad product, markup kaw kaw.

then see dr they will sstill complain expensive, altho doctor save their life.

then they go around telling people theyre worth a lot, not knowing if a dr charge rm 3k for life saving surgery it means the businessman paid 3k to save something worth millions, that is an ROI that even warren buffet cant beat

just because it is working for other ppl doesnt make it right to say free market and then cap consultation fees, after all there is no subsidy from govt , and the cap has not been increased since decades

if u wanna cap, make sure govt subsidize the GPs. fair and square.

dont use GP for political ammo, let everyone see wah our govt so good, cap prices for GP make everyone affordable, then GP become victim as a result.

Asking GP to display their prices is political ammo?

Isn't it a requirement for most products we buy?

Read back, I mentioned consultstion fee cap but didn't mention price display.

Those are separate issues but related because the cap caused them to need to untung based on meds.
The capping issue is political ammo. If the minister says hi dear malaysians we are now allowing the clinics to charge whatever they want guess the public will say what of the minister? They will say aiyo ministry also never jaga malaysian kesian la we no money buy iPhone no money watch movie no money eat shell out.... how can tindas us make us pay more than an outdated consultstion fee cap?

If uncap the consultation fee, then they can mark up the consultation fees, medication they ask u go Watson buy next day when it opens.. Win win win.

hmm as i said they need to make profits form meds because consultation fees barely covers expenses.

and the root cause is the consultation fee cap.

Nobody is not letting doctors make some profits from medication but people want to stop profiteering

It is a fact that if you claim insurance or company when seeing GP, the medicational cost is more expensive

It is a fact that nowadays, getting some fever or flu medicine today are ridiculously expensive compared to buying from pharmacies

Displaying price is beneficial to consumers and nobody should be against it

As for raising consultation fees, it's up to doctors to discuss with government

Why doctor so greedy?

Cannot work in kkm 10 - 20 years then only go solo or private ke? What's the problem 🤭

Go invest in friend's GP, if the doctor soft skill is bad, confirm hard to earn money.

Nowadays small size GP has to fight with chain GP which sign agreement with big company, even FOMEMA they also wallop. To build up customer base also need a very long time. Best is start with existing GP, if the owner is near retirement age then start to buyover his clinic. This way should be better than starting a new clinic.

Even dentist clinic also mushrooming in the market, everybody pun mau jadi boss.

the problem with the industry is , people are afraid of being asked to buy policies that benefit the agents rather than them

for example if someone has a lot of money usually the agents will ask them to buy some ILP.

the ILP comms are high.

already kena myself. one amoi ask me buy when she was at OCBC

then later she became independent, she asked me to buy another one, and said the previous one was sh1t

this made me question her integrity

clinic profit because they mark up the medications. it is not the only way they earn, but one of the main and most common.

if up to the consultation fee, so little only.

clinic also earn with medical report, procedures, ultrasound, blood tests, nebuliser etc. all this cannot get elsewhere, except maybe blood test pharmacy also doing nowadays. Nebuliser fluid actually sell at pharmacy, along with the gas machine. But if self do but dunno how to mix with salt water and when to repeat dose, probability to mampus at home also. Clinic do because most doctor trained at emergency department, it is bread and butter service.

clinic with lots of knowledge for procedures especially ultrasound sure earn one.

Duh who duno? The difference is Doctors spent at least 500k to study medicine and countless hours studying their hearts out

Do other business owners spend the same amount to study?
Yes every street has a clinic, what makes the difference between a successful cclinic and a failed one is the doctor.

Ppl will only go to doctors who they trust . If the doctor lacks the soft skills to deal with patients, confirm their clinic will fail even though they have the knowledge.

Being a Dr is not just about being a Dr. Its all about how the doctor talks to the patient, how they make their patients feel good about themselves.

Being a Dr is also a salesjob. U are basically selling your skillset to patients. Whether patients buy your story depends on how good your present yourself

I have been to sorry to say some type M clinics where the doctor is wearing a working shirt and pants but wearing slippers. Besides , he looks like he is there to just make a quick buck. After consulting me, he straight away ran out of the clinic to do something.

These are the clinics which i will ban for life

Do u know how much it costs to setup a clinic? A basic ultrasound machine costs RM50k.

All in you are looking at 500k for a basic clinic and 1m for a nicer looking clinic with more equipment.

U calculate la how many years required to break even, that is if they survive the period la

Unker is very much happier to pay a good doctor very lucrative fees. Unker doesn't mind to pay for experience doctors.
Unker is very agitated with stupid doctors pretending to be nice and refuse to refer their cases to someone more senior than himself.
Unker is angry with unqualified human with parents' money , getting medical licence from some shady (but approved) medical institution which Singapore does not recognise.
Stop churning out idiots who are going to make their patients worse off.

clogs and scrubs very common in hospital, because the doctor moving around ward to ward and easier to do procedure

but if clinic, yes, better wear proper office attire with shoes. All those specialist at pantai/kpj etc for sure will never be caught wearing slipper in their clinic. GP doctor wear slipper not good for their image and image of outpatient care as a whole.
