Mia has been sneezing occasionally every morning. After a couple of regular off the shelf medications from our panel clinic, we decided to refer her to a specialist at a hospital. The otorhinolaryngologist (ENT specialist) recommended that we do a little turbinoplasty surgery to fix her condition once and for all.
Thanks to Linda’s panel hospital as always, we don’t have to pay a thing except for the extra charge (RM60 a day) for the single bed room that Mia got into. We purposely chose single room so that I can accompany her every night and she can have her privacy. We checked her in the night before so she can fast and have her surgery early the next day. I forgot the last time I slept at the hospital but I was reminded immediately how uncomfortable it was sleeping on the cold hard floor with nothing but my thin sleeping bag as cover.
The next morning it was Linda’s job to take over while I went to work. I only returned in the evening for the night shift. Mia’s surgery went pretty well. She did have some minor nosebleed which was expected. This time around, I came prepared with a thick warm comforter and one more pillow so my second night at the hospital was much more pleasant.
Getting food was quite easy. Apart from the hospital cafés, there’s a daily night market some 300 meters away and also Bangi Gateway just next door.
An-Nur specialist hospital is the same as every other private hospital except for the fact that it’s shariah compliant. Their service and hospitality were quite good, comparable to KPJ and Pantai hospitals that we’ve been to. At the end of our stay, the front desk staff came by to visit us and recite some prayers for our health and recovery I suppose. That’s the other difference of this shariah-compliant hospital. Price-wise, they’re just as expensive as others. The other plus point I must say is that the hospital is only 10 minutes away from our place.
