Malaysia has become a hotspot for medical tourism in recent years, with an increasing number of people coming from all over the world to receive treatment.
The country offers high-quality medical care at a fraction of the cost of what it would cost in developed nations, and its proximity to other Southeast Asian countries makes it a convenient destination.
There are three types of hospitals in Malaysia: government, university and private.
Government hospitals are owned and operated by the Malaysian government. They provide free or subsidized healthcare to Malaysian citizens.
University hospitals are affiliated with a university and provide medical education and training to students, as well as full-paying services to patients.
Private hospitals are owned and operated by private companies or individuals and provide medical care to paying patients.
In this blog, we will discuss some of the best hospitals in Malaysia.
