Prince Court Medical Centre, where I was lucky enough to meet some truly lovely specialist doctors.
Stuart Pack, the hospital’s CEO, is a turnaround specialist who had previously run Gleneagles Hospital and had been retained by Petronas to work his managerial magic on Prince Court. He explained to me that the very excellence of the hospital’s facilities and ultra modern décor had been a major intimidating factor - and this is understandable. With some of the best medical specialists and definitely the most modern equipment and with a great support staff from nurses to administrators and even a cook, who by the way cooks some truly delicious local specialties, it is easy for many to assume the fees of the hospital are beyond many people’s budgets.
the fees of Prince Court are not any more or less expensive than any other good private hospital in the country or the region.

adjustments in terms of dosage and timing. As for my eyes, I was thrilled to discover that actually I had 20/20 vision! My problem were cataracts that were blocking my vision - unfortunately this is part of the ageing process. So I had my cataract removed. This is an operation which is not to be confused with the lasik surgery done to correct one’s eyesight and vision. Eye cataracts may be simple operations, but they are operations, and it takes at least a week for your cornea to clear up, for the “flyers” to settle, and for your eye to adjust to the light after the cataract is removed. It is not a one-hour phenomenon as so many of my
friends thought it was… But I can see clearly now! The
doctor implanted lenses to let me read better so it has improved my lifestyle tremendously. In the process of doing my eye tests, I discovered that my retinas and my optic nerves were good and strong… so health-wise, my wu lou and my windchimes, and my South corner (which governs eye health) must be giving me good health feng shui. In spite of that, it does help also to have friends in the right places. I had been thinking of looking for a good eye specialist for some time, so Stuart Pack introducing me to a doctor in whom I felt so much confidence was truly a great blessing.
